Jakemoore Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 Where are we drinking? Looking forward to this one!
Fox92 Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 Probably nowhere near Stamford Bridge as usual. Seems to be nothing round there.
boots60 Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 Pubs near the ground are mainly home fans only though possible to blag your way past the monkey men if not wearing city colours. Earls Court has a reasonable choice & away fans friendly.
Stuntman_Mike Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 There's some great pubs down King's Road. It was great getting off the coach at Victoria last year and walking that way, makes a change from getting on the tube as well.
Gazross Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 The Courtfield Tavern, which is almost opposite the main entrance to Earls Court Tube Station. Leicester friendly pub. Went there last season 👌🏼
SemperEadem Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 The Stags Head I always push for London games. A Leicester pub in the big smoke.

I know a lot of away fans tend to drink around Earl’s Court for Chelsea away Great Portland Street. It’s not exactly around the corner but it’s a proper pub that has a super sound landlord who is Leicester. I reckon if say a club like Newcastle had a pub like that in London all their away games there would see fans head to it.

Feel like I’d miss the game after a few beers trying to get there
Fox92 Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 I'm going on bus. Earl's Court is about 20/25 mins walk from Stamford Bridge. Shame there isn't anything more decent closer.
Bayfox Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 Chelsea Potter if you want somewhere walking distance to the ground. But won't be full of Leicester and it's relatively tiny. But there's normally a handful of us there.
Guest Papasmurf Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 Some decent bars on Putney High Street. Not sure what it’s like for a Chelsea game but was fine after Fulham last year.
urban.spaceman Posted 14 August 2019 Posted 14 August 2019 I'll be in Poland, does anyone know of any decent pubs there?

Haven't been there for years, should revisit one day soon. Maybe not on Sunday though, would have to leave an hour before kick off at least
KrefelderFox666 Posted 15 August 2019 Posted 15 August 2019 For those wanting a Bavarian style atmosphere, there is the Octoberfest Pub near Parsons Green station. It is about 15/20 min walk from Stamford Bridge. They'll have German/PL football on TV too.

SpacedX Posted 15 August 2019 Posted 15 August 2019 I used to live in Battersea and this is going back, but I tended to cross the river and drink in Fulham and Chelsea more than Putney and Clapham. Returning to my old haunts - and someone mentioned Parson's Green - The White Horse, also derisively christened the Sloaney Pony, (trust me, it was much worse back then), has the best range of ale in the proximity of the Bridge. Always drop in there when I've visited The Cottage. Other than that, closer to the ground, and more obligatory, I think The Pensioner is always a good atmosphere (though full of Chelsea supporters and impossible to get served on matchdays). Not far from The White Horse, Octoberfest is also good beer and only a kilometer from the stadium.

Finley Parsons Posted 15 August 2019 Posted 15 August 2019 No idea where we are heading is there a place a few of yous are going but not ahes away from the stadium

Not sure what it’s like for a Chelsea game but was fine after Fulham last year. Fox & Hounds (my local) is where I will be drinking on Sunday. Top of Putney High Street almost opposite main train station or few minutes walk from East Putney. Mind you, as you said plenty of bars on the High Street. Putney Pies. Boathouse. Rocket. Revolution. Half Moon (brilliant for music) Coat & Badge. Jolly Gardners. Spotted Horse. Bricklayers Arms. Think I have covered a fair few.
BrummieFOX Posted 16 August 2019 Posted 16 August 2019 Earl's Court Tavern is a minutes walk from Earl's Court tube. Was a good crowd in there last few seasons.
