Brilliant cheers mate
What are your Wembley plans?
- Thread starter Blueles61
- Start date
On a previous thread a lot of Blues said they were drinking near Euston before the game. A pub name Bree Louise , 69 Cobourg St, Kings Cross, London NW1 2HH got mentioned many times and it has good reviews on Trip Advisor. I am heading there with my wife. Bite to eat, drink and very easy tube ride to Wembley.

I should add it is actually next to Euston Station despite the Kings Cross address.
Then a short walk to Euston Sqare Underground and Metropolitan line to Wembely Park is 20 mins ride.

The Bree Louise is closed now I believe. Shut down for HS2 development unless it’s had a reprieve?
Looks like it is. The other thing is, some of the local pubs in the area close on Sundays. We're planning to go to the Metropolitan (A Spoons) at Baker St Station. Two stops to Wembley. But even though it's big I'm guessing it will be rammed - but I'm expecting a good atmosphere. Get there early!
Deffo closed.
First train from Edinburgh at 9am arriving in Kings X around 2pm, hopefully meeting a few fellow railway blues in London for a few beers then head to the ground and have a few inside the stadium. After the game I might have time for a pint or two before catching the last flight to Edinburgh from Gatwick airport at 21:10, should be back in the house for Midnight.

Call me old fashioned but I think you should drink beer in pubs not eat food (unless it's crisps!)
Thanks for the heads up but I'll be concentrating on getting squiffy
Hi
sorry didn't know Bree Louise was closed, thanks for update. Nothing on their website !!
Plan B, looks like we will now head towards Baker St.
Looking for a pub with some decent lunchtime food (ie not Spoons).
And ideas anyone please ?
thanks
That will be tight even without extra time and penalties. To be honest though, after the game with the amount of fans trying to get back to the North they tend to waive booked trains and just let you on providing you have a valid ticket. They may even run special (relief) trains to shift fans due to the sheer volume. They ran a "special" to Manchester after Chelsea away last season.

If you want to stay around Euston there's O'Neills and the Euston Flyer, both on Euston Road towards Kings Cross

Great Portland Street tube is a good one to go from as it is just before Baker Street which can be rammed on cup final days. Metropolitan line. Loads of pubs around there and just at the back in Fitzrovia. Mason Arms is a traditional one. Green Man has sports channels etc.

09:11 train from doncaster arriving around 11, straight into the pubs around kings cross as usual ( good atmosphere ) then jump on a tube to either somewhere before wembley station for a few, head to wembley station , this is where we shall be stuck for choice, i remember other year when you get outta wembley station and when going down the stair if you look/go to your right theres a hotel with a massive car park in which they turn into a fan park with bars etc . usually for the fans who have the end of wembley that we have.
i shall look into that today to see if that will be happening as it was good last time and great atmosphere with little worries about getting a pint shortly before going into the ground.

Hi
Masons Arms no food on Sundays !
Green Man looks good, think wife and I will give that a try.
And as you say just 3 stops before Wembley Park on the Metropolotan Line, 18 mins journey time.
