Pre-match Drinking Holes


St David

Recommended Posts

Morning,

 

Where do you plan on going for a drink before the home games next season.

 

I've been using Northam Social Club for the last 7-8 seasons but found it getting too boring towards the end of last season. I didnt renew my membership to the club so will be looking for somewhere else to try.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Cheers,

 

St David

It varies, I'm not over very often, but sometimes Shamrock Quay and I can pretend I own a Hallberg-Rassy, or I go the scenic beach route from St Denys: Junction, SWestern or The Dolphin, or if skint the Wetherspoons in London Road or... Anyway, I do a fair bit of catching up when I'm over. As much as I like the local red wine you can't beat a decent pint. The Guide Dog tends to be after, up to The Honest or Bent Brief, then... oh dear...

Also have a soft spot for Bent Brief having spent far too much time in there during my student days spent living on Lodge Road back in the day.

 

For reasons I've never quite been able to fathom, we meet in Varsity before football. The beer is pants, service slow, it's 15 min walk to the ground and completely the wrong side of town for me.

Used the Alfred last year, but a good friend has just taken over the Eagle, so might have to go back in there now!

She's trying to brighten the place up, her Saints scarf above the bar is a start, should be good come the new season!

Loved the grapes for pre match drinks, but gutted its closed down. Does anyone know if its going to reopen?

 

I always used the Grapes too, great pub if a little on the pricey side, but on the plus side they allowed kids in. THeres been a fair bit of work going on inside and there is a sign on the wall that says 'reopening soon', just hope its in time for the start of the season.

 

I've been told Banana Wharf is kid friendly on a matchday, can anyone confirm this?
