You may be the most well versed racing expert in your circle of friends, and you may have an extensive knowledge of the latest courses and competitions, but you can’t find a great bar to watch races in, you will be missing out a key part of the racing experience! Read these tips to help you choose the best bars for watching races with your friends.

- Choose a bar with a great feel to it. Some places are less racing friendly than others. Before it is time for you to gather with your friends, scope out potential places and make sure they will feel inviting while you watch the competition. Look for features such as great tv’s and comfortable seating.

- Similarly, scope out the prices. Don’t go somewhere too upscale for everyone to afford. You will want great drinks for relatively cheap prices. Classy and sophisticated can be nice, but for an evening spent watching races, plenty of drinks and a laid-back atmosphere are more important.

- Choose a place close to all your friends. Don’t make everyone spend time in the stress of traffic when they could be sitting somewhere closer to home, and just as nice!
