Hi a few of us are coming by train from Swansea going to the 2Tone village before the game then onto the game with a few beers and a curry after the game then staying over somewhere?
Some advice on where to stay, drink...etc so we are not spending the whole time walking or taxis.
Cheers
Do not stay in the Britannia!Cheers yeah was looking at that hotel and the not so nice Britannia so the logistics of it then dump stuff in hotel then cab to 2Tone village then a few pints after somewhere before game on route then cab to game and then cab to city centre for a beer and a curry
That sounds like a great day. I'll give you some advice if you let me join you.
There are s couple of hotels in the Butts by the rugby ground , then you could use Earlsdon high street for excellent venue's for Beers and top curry venues .Cheers yeah was looking at that hotel and the not so nice Britannia so the logistics of it then dump stuff in hotel then cab to 2Tone village then a few pints after somewhere before game on route then cab to game and then cab to city centre for a beer and a curry

Equally fairly close is Kenilworth Rd and the station
Earlsdon is considered to be upmarket for Coventry , very busy Friday Saturday evenings
Do not stay in the Britannia!
It's probably the most Covid safe venue tbf - the scum and dirt would kill off any virus, as soon as it looked at it.didn’t enjoy your stay?
Dhillons brewery is very close to the ground and is meant to be a good stop pre match Home - Dhillons Breweryapart from inside, is there anywhere at the Arena to get a beer? is the wasps place open on gameday/night or just casino?
For curry highly recommend this place on Spon St, best in Cov in my view

Very overrated IMO, Akbars or Royal Bengal are both much better.
You may want to avoid booking the Ramada, I think it's currently being used as a quarantine hotel (who knows when that will stop). I'd stick to Earlsdon for pubs/food/hotel. Nice part of the city with easy access to everything.
Check with the two tone village, prior to your trip to ensure that the museum is deffo open - don't want to get your day off to a disappointing start.
Just a little further down the road (heading back towards the city centre) is a place called 'FarGo village' (Coventry sounds very idyllic so far doesn't it?) - So named because it's at the top of Far Gosford street) It's a collection of small independent businesses including food and drink.
There's a great micro brewery called the 'twisted barrel' - again because I'm not a regular, you may want to check opening times on the day you (may) want to visit.
Potentially it Could be one of the best pre-match sessions you'll ever have.
You may also want to consider individual all day bus tickets because the roaming you may be doing could really stack up the expense with taxi/uber fares.
Twisted Barrel tap room opens at midday on weekends and there's loads of nice places to eat o Gosford Street as well. Nice easy 20 stroll into town as well from there.
What time does it open during the week? as the match is a Tuesday night.
They won't have a problem at all in coloursJust don't wear colours in town after the game or despite most people being normal, we have dickheads like every club and they won't be able to help themselves despite most likely having not been at the game (and that's unfortunately whether you win lose or draw! )

That sounds very familiarGet off train, go to 2 tone village book the Ramada in the Butts over to Sky Blue Tavern beers get the coach from there to the game , back to the Tavern beers choice of curry houses by Ramada , even walk up to Railway Club curry and beers , back to Hotel bar more beers crash out wake up next morning with hangover feeling like shit but sod it, it was worth it
Thats my recommendation
Joes Ice Cream ParlourSwansea, well the mumbles is a nice area - what is the ice cream shop with a history/good reputation?
Think the place is also famous for Stacey actress from Gavin and Stacey...
And the DVLA.
That's the place. Enjoy your time in Coventry - apart from hopefully watching our lads outplay and beat you!Joes Ice Cream Parlour
If you want a prossy or rent boy to join the party stay at the BrittaniaDo not stay in the Britannia!

I only realised the other day. Proper dim moment.Why have I never realised that until now.
