Pubs before match

[swintonjamie]

I know this has been discussed previously but given it’s a 5.30 kick off on Saturday…so plenty of extra boozing time…Where are the best places for pre-match pints when coming from Piccadilly?

I used to like a couple in the green (golf bar) which has now closed. So recently I’ve just been having one or two in Piccadilly Tap then straight to the ground but seen as I’ll be there from about midday it’s probably worth going to a few others, where are there normally plenty of blues?

I’d have thought they’ll be loads of Spurs around Piccadilly making a day of it on the pop as it’s a 530 ko
Anywhere in the Northern Quarter is usually good. Too many bars to mention.

Probably be Sinclairs and lower Turks head for me.

Ah I know where you mean - one of those places I’ve walked by so many times and never been in!

What about the Waldorf? A couple of minutes' walk from Piccadilly.

Can get packed but usually good and they do a coach to the ground for £2 not sure if it’s on for 5:30 ko’s though.

Bear in mind that there's likely to be more than a few boxing fans in town ahead of the Khan v Brook fight and some of those chaps are rather fond of a beer or two. Places not too far from the arena may well be a lot busier than on a regular Saturday.
