St Louis Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 Sorry if already posted elsewhere, I did look but couldn't see it.... It's my first trip up to Anfield this weekend and I wondered if anyone could recommend the best pub/pubs for pre-match beers for away fans?

Most will head to the Arkles on Anfield Road, 2 minutes from the away entrance. Central Liverpool has loads of very good pubs. The area around Everton has a few pubs that will be quieter, but walking distance to the ground, got a Spoons if you arrive before 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pap Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 The Arkles is where we were last year. Packed to the rafters, normally. I haven't managed to get tickets this year, which is unfortunate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pap Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 If anyone is getting there a bit earlier, or on Saturday, my favourite spot is the Georgian Quarter in town. http://www.liverpoolunderlined.com/georgian-quarter-pub-crawl/ Well recommended if you want to avoid much of the chain shíte.

We normally stay with a mate in southport if Mrs Duck is with me, but he's on holiday. For some reason Mrs Duck doesn't like traipsing around real ale pubs, strange woman. Good news , checked the ship and mitre web google entry and looks like a 10am opening sun. Enough time for my prematch away ritual of 5 or 6 pints whilst mrs duck shops.

ericofarabia Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 A good few years back now, but The Arkles wouldn't let me in with my 14 yr old son. Don't know if things have changed. Asked a copper for directions to any pubs nearby with a beer garden so that we could sit outside, and he burst out laughing and replied "You're obviously not from around here are yer lad. Take a look around, the houses don't have gardens, let alone the pubs"!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any decent tips for boozer or area that will let 15 year old in sat eve Ship and Mitre is class, quality selection of ales. Used to live the next road over from Dale St. (Victoria St.) so was in there quite a bit. Loads of quality bars in that area - Lady of Mann has a decent courtyard if the weather is good, and there is also Bier Keller if you like your Weissbier.

Mikey88 Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 We tried to get into the official away supporters pub last year but after seeing the ques at the bar we decided to go elsewhere. Ended up in some back street boozer in Anfield, called the King Charles or something along them lines. Looks nothing from the outside and all Liverpool fans in there but they were a decent bunch, able to have a good chat a few of them and cheap booze to boot. Would definitely go back there this year rather than queuing for 20 minutes to get a drink in the over place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
