The best old pub in the city. A great choice of amazing ales and the food is spot on. A place to go to watch live sports events. This pub is dog friendly (on the ground floor) so if you don't mind 4 legged friends saying hello, its a must for a visit. Takes about 40 minutes to walk to this place. Take a cab there (approx £6-£7), and enjoy a nice evening stroll back along the river and back of the race course. Moderate prices on the food, but sometimes offer 2 for 1 on burgers mid week (phone ahead for their offers)

Something a bit different, if you love planes and especially the XL Beluga, you can grab some great food and get up close to watch the planes come in. There is also the Baluga Bank which is perfect for that action photo shot.
