Longshots, located at Fairmount Park Casino & Racing, is a country-western BBQ restaurant offering scratch-made food and live music with clear views of the horse track and winner’s circle. The restaurant features a full bar, a patio, a music stage, and a total of 150 seats for indoor and outdoor seating. Guests can choose from a variety of scratch-made options, including small bites, cracker crust pizza, sandwiches, burgers, and signature smoked meats. The authentic BBQ is smoked daily in a state-of-the-art Cookshack smoker capable of handling over 500 pounds at a time!

Themed shots, called longshots, and cocktails are crafted at the bar and served in cowboy boot-shaped shot glasses. The restaurant’s distinctive name pays homage to the world of horse racing. A longshot is a contender with high odds, often considered unlikely to win. Yet when a longshot is victorious, the moment is exhilarating and the reward substantial. That connection to a memorable experience reflects what restaurant guests can expect.
