The Director of Operations, Cory Rivademar said: "Their visit was a scheduled thing. They let us know that she wanted to come by, but we did not know Harry was coming.
"They came in, and they toured the pits with Frankie, who is the pit guy, and talked about how hot it was around the pits, which is funny because this is Texas, and actually, it can be much hotter than today."
The toilet doors of the restaurant showed a picture of British rockstar Freddie Mercury wearing a crown and pearl earrings to look like Queen Elizabeth.
Prince Harry quipped: “We should take a picture in front of this.”
