Where food meets live sports action. Major games live on the big screen & trackside harness racing at Alexandra Park.

Its state of the art TAB has lounge chairs complete with their very own cup holders, the café side has direct access to track side action on a race night and large spaces to accommodate the crowds. Using the history of the racing industry for the imagery and décor, The Alex incorporates the old with the new. The Alex has long been a favourite for a casual drink, coffee or delicious meal. It’s easy to get to with free parking and a relaxed environment; it might even become your local.
