Victory Lane

Looking for a boujee lunch before the races? Or just a relaxed gourmet dinner for you and your friends, perhaps? Well, either way, Ascot’s Victory Lane has you sorted. After indulging in their menu filled with fresh and local produce, you will be walking out from Racecourse Road’s lush dining spot feeling more than satisfied. 

The open interiors here are the picture of relaxation and sophistication, with modern furnishings, high ceilings, white panelling, and plenty of natural light. The back half of the restaurant can be booked out for events or functions with your own private bar, or  you can snag yourself the sleek, all-black private dining room for an intimate meal. 

Of course, the main talking point at Victory Lane is the food, whether you’re there for lunch, dinner or a just a few drinks. The glass-ceilinged bar is the perfect place to start with a cocktail or two under the stars, before grabbing a table for a three-course feast. With a menu of modern Euro-inspired eats, you can start with beef tartare and salmon crudo, move on to bug tortellini and wagyu steak and finish off with brie-stuffed crumbed figs for dessert.  

We've saved the best for last—every Sunday, Victory Lane dishes up an oyster extravanga where you can get freshly shucked oysters for just $2 each from their streetside oyster cart. Happening from 11.30am-3pm, you can pair your briny goodness with $15 glasses of Laurenti Grand Cuvee Champagne and acoustic live music. Understandably, this one gets busy, so bookings are recommended.
