The Jackaroo Restuarant
This restuarant is located underneath the Air Traffic Control Tower, on the outside of the track. Historically, this building housed the Command and Control offices when Thruxton was occupied by the Royal Air Force. Named after the famous small single-engined plane that was constructed at Thruxton just after the First World War, the Jackaroo is now open seven days a week between the hours of 9 am and 5 pm. Our customers include visitors to the circuit, flyers, and various members of the public who enjoy a break at a location which is only just off the A303. To the many flyers who visit us, the Jackaroo is still considered as the Club House for Western Air who are the operators of the airfield.
Our regular menu offers a wide choice, and "Specials of the Day" are usually available as well.

Breakfast (served until 1200 hours)
