Furlongs Eatery - Vancouver, British Columbia

Fun place to watch horses and place some bets for entertainment. Entrance is free but parking is $15. There are food stalls where you can buy different types of easy to eat food like burgers as well as beverage stalls selling alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. You can either use the machines ... or go to the tellers to bet in person. There is a wall inside the building that explains how it works to all beginner or you can ask for help in-person. The brochures for the night cost an extra $3 but has lots of details to look at. There is also a casino but we didn’t go in as we already had so much fun watching the horses and betting. Before the race, they will parade the horses around so everyone can have a look. Make sure to bring cash as that is the only form of payment the establishment takes for wagers. Read more

A nice enough location but it appears to be struggling as most races offer a handful of horses and a handful of races. I haven't been inside the casino as I am not much of a gambler.

My experience at, "The Cup" event was so fantastic! The fashions and hats that participants were showcasing added an entertainment factor for people watching. Betting on the horses for each race was easy and straight forward, there was always a staff member available to assist you with placing ... you're bets. Collecting the money after winning was so exciting! If you missed last year go this year. I recommend buying you're tickets early they sell out fast. Read more
