Street is served by local trains from Birmingham New Street. The
Metro
service takes eight minutes to the Hawthorns from Birmingham Snow Hill and

valid on the Metro and that you have to buy a separate ticket for it (ask
for a £2
matchday special adult return). Birmingham Snow Hill station is signposted
from Birmingham New Street and is around a 10 minute walk away. C Price adds; 'On Halford Lane just below the
train/metro stop is a chip shop called the Hawthrones (which yes is spelt
incorrectly). Fish and chips cost under £2 and are of good quality and it
also serves pies and kebabs'.
