Hi all,
I will be down Wembley for the semi final in April ( 5 long years since my last trip there !)
Unfortunately we are the Sunday match but I am still planning to hit a handful of pubs before / after the match.
We land at Marylebone fairly early ( by 10.30 if all goes to plan ) so hit me with some suggestions !
They don't have to be the greatest real ale pubs in the world - anything interesting will do. As you know to me a pub is a pub !!
Cheers,
Del.
I really enjoyed the Barley Mow, before and after our defeat to Wigan. :o The ELB Jamboree was superb.
The wooden alcoves are something of intrigue; sorry it didn't float the boat of its most recent, and respected, reviewer.
Next trip there, vs Sunderland, it was closed - may be worth checking in advance...
ps. Look for the overland trains from Marylebone, ~12mins direct, especially good if allocated West side of stadium, though it beats the tube either way...
Agree with Barley Mow. Pontefract Castle is a decent shout too - a Nicholsons, so you know what you're going to get.
The Carpenters Arms is a nice place, though a little small so it depends how many of you there are trying to squeeze in.
Pontefract has closed. More flats imminent...
I will probably give the Barley Mow a go. The pubs close to Baker street / Marylebone will no doubt be heaving. Last time i went you couldn't get near the Globe.Quote:

We have got the West side of Wembley but I doubt i will bother trying to get a pint anywhere near there !
