Iwan_09 0 Posted March 15, 2011 How many tickets sold and can anyone reccommend a good watering hole near the ground? I have been to Hull many times but never seem to find a good boozer near-by. Help please... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snakepit Lass 0 Posted March 15, 2011 Where To Drink?Tim Jones a visiting Aston Villa supporter informs me; ''The Brickmakers pub virtually opposite the stadium car park entrance is now open to away fans. Good atmosphere, friendly Hull fans, Big screen Sky Sports and a burger van outside''. Whilst Villa fan Neil Tate adds; ''There is the nearby Walton Street Social Club that lets in away supporters. Although it costs �1 to go in, it has good cheap beer, is of a good size and offers a separate area for sale of food such as burgers and chips etc.. There were plenty of fellow Villa fans in there during our recent visit. Turn right out of the main car park entrance and it is down the road on the left hand side.'' There are a number of other pubs within a few minutes walk of the stadium, but these are all designated as being for home supporters only. Most Hull fans still seem to be heading for pubs situated around Boothferry Park. These are best avoided by away fans particularly the Silver Cod pub. Otherwise you can head for the nearby City Centre, where there are plenty of pubs to be found. Sam Carroll suggests the ''Linnet & Lark'' on Princes Avenue. As Sam says; ''It has lots of TVs showing Sky Sports, making it perfect to watch the early or late kick off games. It is a 15 minute walk away from the stadium, going across the pedestrian footbridge over the railway line. Also there are a number of other bars dotted along Princes Avenue, which should be okay for away fans to drink in. These include PAVE, which has a great selection of beers from all around the world and quality food. Look out for their "matchday special" pint, pie, peas and mash for just �6. There is ample parking in the streets off the avenue. Closer to the stadium around a 15 minute walk up Walton Street, is the Avenues pub on Chanterlands Avenue, that welcomes both home and away supporters.''
