Title: Goodwood Cafe Post by: Chevy Rick on February 10, 2008, 06:36:11 PM 8) Here we are early February and biking weather,set off for a ride to Goodwood Cafe, took the coast road M27 to Chichester turned inland for a mile, what an impresive sight the gates to the new Rolls Royce factory, and just up the road Goodwood Race Track, on entering the gate your faced with a narrow tunnel through to the other side turn left and into the car park where all types of transport can be found from BMW Iseta bubble car to a Green Label Bentley and Light Aircraft with of course lots of bikers. dotted around the grounds are various memorials and bronze statues pictured Mike Hawthorne racing driver and Douglas Bader Fighter Pilot. The cafe has plenty of seating inside and out where you can watch light aircraft take off and land, as well as being entertained by the cars on a near by skid pad, there is a large menu from burgers to full roast dinner at a very reasonable price, i can well recommend the food and service. ;D

Hi VB seems like an all the year round thing except when there is an event there, i just heard about the cafe third hand so took a run up there to investigate with a couple of mates, the sort of place you could drop in on for a meal break then head for the coast (Brighton Bognor Hayling Island Portsmouth).

Didn't finsd the cafe though, back then I was a bit shy about poking around - now I'd just ride around till someone told me not to!
