Where To Drink
Chris Taylor, recommends Doctor Browns, a ten
minute walk away from the ground at the bottom of Corporation Road, in the
city centre. This pub serves real ale, has SKY TV and on my last visit had
a good mix of home and away fans, both inside and outside of the pub. On
the corner opposite the pub, is also a sandwich bar, which was doing a
brisk trade in amongst other things, trays of roast potatoes and gravy. To
find this pub; If you were standing outside the stadium with the main
entrance behind you, head over to your left and turn right down the road,
going under a bridge. A little way down this road on your left, there is
an underpass (there is usually some programme & fanzine sellers
standing by its entrance). Go down through the underpass and as you emerge
on the other side turn right and go down the road and through another
underpass. You will emerge in a small retail park (there is a McDonalds
over on your right), which you walk through unto you come to a main road.
Turn right along this road and you will see the Doctor Browns pub over on
your left. Otherwise, there is a bar at the back of the
away stand within the ground (Tetleys £2.40 per pint, Carlsberg £2.60 per
pint).
Simon Lorch a visiting Chelsea fans adds; 'We went into the Bridge Inn,
which is next door to the railway station on Bridge street...the road that
leads to the ground. It was mainly locals but we had no colours on and
went in. The people and staff were very friendly and the beer in there was
very cheap. It was a very hospitable place and we will definitely see them
next year!'
