Garage 39 Café Restaurant in North West Leicestershire

Novel way of running a business. Classic car sales, restorations & storage deals are what they do but allow the public in for free if you visit the cafe & browse the gift shop. Fantastic cars on display well worth a visit. 2st time I have stood next to a £1million car

Nice place but the beer is expensive and table staff are rude.

Staff were very friendly, The Band 'Dr Spork' were incredible, specially the drummer who was incredible... Exelent venue.

Right next to the track with plenty of parking if not a race day, there was a track day on so could walk through the pits. Breakfast better than expected.

They had few different options, which was very useful and the decor was very interesting.

Expensive gor what it is but you're a captive audience. Staff are great.

Great place to start your day at donington park. Great range of food.

The food was like school dinners and the staff were really miserable and you could tell they hated their jobs, it had great ascetics and was clean

As far as racetrack resturants this is great quality.

Extremely overpriced, incredibly young staff

Expensive for what it is.....a cafe.

Expensive, and staff seemed like they genuinely couldn't be arsed with being there. But I guess it was a busy Sunday race day so I can't fault them.

Bar shut at 8.30pm both days at a busy race meeting. Friday's staff were OK. Saturday's staff ?bar manager- an extremely rude individual. Lots of people were relying on eating there but no food in the evening and bar closed. Would never go to Donnington again relying on using the bar and cafe.

Great little cafe at Donington park circuit. Quality of food was great and the service was also excellent. Lovely and clean inside with a nice atmosphere.

Very clean but not enough choice.

There for the track day but there was limited hot food which was disappointing. Only pizza rolls.

Good food, gets very busy race days could do with another one of these in the infield area

Great place, was here this weekend for the world superbikes and was surprised at the quality of the food. Reasonably priced when you consider it's an event cafe 9.50 for a full English breakfast with a coffee or tea. Could go back on the afternoon for a giant jacket potato with a choice of fillings with chips and salad for £6.50. Also the toilets were always clean

Had a nice burger and chips today

Excelente servicio. Muy buen ambiente.

How much? Flipping heck this place is dearer than harrods! Don't let go of your drink the staff hover and whisk it away before you have chance to finish it.

Staff really friendly, food good, nice place and atmosphere. Nice salad.

Was waiting to be served along with other people, some who were already being served on the left hand side of the bar. This very officious and rude woman announced that they didn’t serve people on that side of the bar (even though they were). I asked how would I know that? Where is the signage to tell me that? She shouted “I am the sign” and stormed off. Needless to say I went elsewhere, they clearly done want my custom.

Could do with opening times on Google Fast service. Good, we’ll cooked and presented food. Not too friendly to new people, possibly due to having quite young staff who are not confident in interacting with strangers. Little on the expensive side, especially in a time where people are trying to save a little. No opening times in Google page.

Fair play!! Plenty of Gluten free options with all allergens clearly displayed....decor great for the venue and reasonable prices!

Bit pricey compared to some places but to be expected at any event. Great staff.

Very nicely appointed café and much better than average 'track food' for sure! Live timing screens everywhere and a welcome shelter from the weather.

Great staff, great variety and quality of food, great prices. Perfect way to start the day before racing 🏁 🏎 👌

Good food. Scampi and chips £9.50, chicken curry £9.50 and jacket potato £6.50. There was also a vegetarian option. Some sauces were to be paid for. Eat in or takeaway. Drinks were approx. £2.70 for a bottle.

Good food good service, collecting cars meet

Nice, hot food and friendly staff

very expensive and nothing special

Good quality food but jot great for someone who has allergies....food choices then were minimal at best.

A great place for petrol heads who like a full English all day!!

Average quality food that is very expensive for what you get.

Good grub friendly staff Recommended

Breakfast excellent but after a day marshaling it would be great if you could get some food, 1830 nothing to eat ? All staff are helpful

Average food, extortionate prices. Bap was nice enough for breakfast but not sure it was worth £6.50 Lunch was again ok although chicken was somewhat dry. £2.70 for a bottle of Ribena seems a bit of a liberty. I'm not convinced this would last as a high street eatery with these costs and mediocre quality.

Great Breakfast and reasonable prices

Having been to most of the race curcuits around the UK. I would pit this Restaurant top for everything. The decor & design is brilliant The food was very good...

Great cafe inside Donnington Park and circuit. Had ciders and beer. Nice area outside, great service

The queue was full but got served quickly limited menu but excellent food Brätwurst with cabbage and chips. Lots of seating Very clean.

Good food and atmosphere price is what you would expect from a. Race circuit otherwise great place

Limited choice but big portions. Have to say whilst it does look impressive I prefer the old cafe

Little bit pricey but the food was ok. Not fantastically hot but tasted nice. Lots of seating. Better than bringing a pack up.

Really nice interior and good selection of beers but stopping serving at 10:50pm without any prior warning and claiming it is actually 11:00pm (despite different people evidencing it was 10:50 not 11:00) is a poor show. To top it off, and again not having called last orders or given any other warning, everyone in the bar ( quite a lot of different people) were fairly rudely forced to vacate (including turning the lights off on people in the toilets!) at 11:05 despite having only been served drinks 20 mins before.....This is on a Saturday on a big race weekend with loads of people still in the bar all still wanting a drink....very odd. Not had this experience at any of the other circuit bars... Bring your own drinks to Donny and maybe just use Garage 39 for food!

Busy as you would expect, bit dear but the food was excellent.

Beans and mushrooms on toast £3 great value 👍

The food in here is very good, always enjoy it and fairly priced at the moment, hope it doesn't get too expensive

Went to Donington for the last BSB races and the previous two rounds of WSBK. Can't fault Garage 39. Excellent food at reasonable prices. They don't overcharge for beer/ wine at the bar. The staff are great; Can't do enough for you. Considering the numbers they cater for they do an absolutely brilliant job 👏

Crowded at times, not surprisingly as I was at British Super Bikes, but good service, reasonable prices, and tables cleared away, used at both car and motorcycle meetings, very happy with it.

We really liked this place, didn't actually have anything to eat but the food did look good. We were there for the British superbike weekend & had a few drinks and watched a pretty good band. My only complaint would be the time it took to get to the bar otherwise good.

Good overall, nice coffee, some queues even off-peak

Fantastic clean place with fabulous food and staff

Excellent breakfast good quality ingredients for the price you can't go wrong definitely recommend it

Food is a bit pricey and not overly hot but the facilities and the space is open and airy

Superb dining. Good quality food and excellent decor. Great use of the former space and a useful hub for friends and family enjoying a day out at the races. Ideally situated between the two race paddocks. A change from the usual burger vans for those that would prefer a sit down meal at reasonable prices. Good place for families.

The food is good. The staff are always friendly. The cost of food & drink is responsible compared to Silverstone. Garage 39 is not big enough for when BSB/WSBK/ Touring cars is at Donington

Used the restaurant on 2 seperate visits recently Went to a great classic car test session on a lovely sunny day followed by a BSB test session on an awful cold and snowy day !! Had a lovely curry on the first visit, which was great value at £8.50 and a great and much needed hot coffee on the second. Well served on both in a busy period. Will definitely use again.

Clean. Not that friendly and the prices are rude.

Overpriced mediocre food as you expect really

Excellent choice. But a bit expensive.

Ok facilities. Not that much to choose from but convenience and shelter is king at a race circuit.

Cracking breakfast but a tad expensive

Consistently good food and service.

Good food, friendly staff, plenty of space. Perfect place to warm up when it's cold out on the circuit.

Nicely decorated, can eat and admire the cars.

Food drinks and service were very good and reasonably priced

Food too expensive even taking into account it is a racing venue. Food very simple. Was clean and presented in reasonable fashion. Surroundings are ok some nice touches. The bar side was nice. Still this place is more cafe than restaurant. Charging restaurant prices for cafe grub.

Here 2-3 times a year racing,at smaller meets breakfast is normally pretty reasonable.At this meet as it was a large GT concern plus rain first thing,at least 400 people in here,absolutely packed,no breakfast, oh well.

Really enjoyed our breakfast before Btcc, proper butchers sausages, plenty of good bacon, it was delicious. Nice and clean and lovely chatty staff both serving and cleaning tables. Look forward to it next visit

Good food for a race circuit diner, and prices not too bad

Quite crowded, but that was probably more to do with the poor weather. The food is not too expensive and was really very good. There was apparently some shortages on cutlery which led to one member of staff asking a couple of times if we'd finished with ours when we didn't have it in our hands. That said, given the business they were very polite and efficient and kept well on top of cleaning duties.

Great cafe and nice seating areas. We loved looking at the f1 car and bike inside

Food was just like motorway service food warm left under the heat too long, and for what it was wasn't worth the money we don't mind paying if it's quality 🤔

Excellent set up, great bar, great food and nice coffee bar. Lots of seating and toilets. Very impressed

Love this place. Always go when at the circuit. Good food. Friendly staff, spotlessly clean and the best prices for everything you want whilst at donny Park.

Decent food and coffee, not too bad a price, plenty of TV screens so you don't miss the action

Great fitting cafe for a race track.

Fantastic place with brilliant food at great prices!!! And very very friendly staff.

Great place to grab a snack or meal. Really well decorated since the revamp.

Sausage and bacon cob was really nice thank you. Highly reccomend.

Good food at a price, but the quality was good and so was the quantity

Staff on food counter today very miserable 🤔😔🏁

By far the best circuit restaurant in the UK.

Slow service, expensive food at £9 for cheeseburger and chips but good food. Nice new building

Good food and a laugh with the staff, Cracking surroundings and atmosphere.

Nice food, good value for money

Better than expected. Went for coffee but for what you usually get at a circuit this was good and food looked good

Great food and good size portions prices would be as expected due to its locale very clean and staff are helpful.

Had breakfast here. Nice and hot. Good coffee.

Nice clean place but very expensive

The best breakfast. Great staff and as fast as they can service as always busy on race days well done guys

Good selection of beers and reasonably priced for its location

Steep prices but nice venue. But nothing more than you'd expect from a fancy cafe at a race track

Very nice place with nice people

Good facilities and better value than the stands around the circuit.

Nice friendly staff, awesome interior. Beer isn't too expensive, not too impressed with the food.

Not to bad. Not much choice and expensive. Beer was okay but the price was well over the top. Just a greedy business.

Set in Donington race track.nice food and drink.staff were great.
