Pre game pub near the Ricoh ? (1 Viewer)

[CovisGod]

Is there one in walking distance ? I live in Norfolk, been down to the Ricoh probably 20 times but always been with my Uncle driving so tend to hang around by the ground. Coming down Saturday with a mate of mine for the Bury game, where's the best place to go for a beer before the game ? Sitting in Block 18, Row DD, decent ish seats ? Say hi if any of you see me I'll have McConnell 6 on my back

Cheers folks

The Casino is usually the place to be mate.

Bull and Anchor is always decent. Friendly and a nice atmosphere

If it is sunny you can sit in the garden out the back.

Wheatsheaf is a fans favourite

Wheatsheaf & The Buffs aka RAOB club/the Buffulo

I always used to go in the club opposite the ground on burbages lane but it has shut down now. Mustn't have ever made money other than matchdays!

I think the Gypsys next door have hijacked the car park as their own now!

Longford Engine isn't bad

Ahh I didn't realise. I couldn't see how it would make any money when it wasn't a match day though, especially after Burbages Lane was split into 2.

I usually go in sometimes both before and after.

Well u know the fat guy who served behind the bar that's me

I go to the Cherry Tree on Lythals Lane. Don't look the best from outside but it's a Good little place to go. Gets quite busy but does the job and parking for £3 can't go wrong.

The Wheatsheaf is decent as is the Buffs club.

I don't mind the Cherry Tree after the games from time to time.

Is the Coach & Horses still open?
