Hi,
Im bringing in an older gent (80 yrs) with me for his first game of the season.
I normally meet a few of the lads at the K Bar pre match but want to do something different.
Arriving into the Train station about 130pm where is walkable (bear in mind the age) that does a decent pint pre match and wouldn't be too far to get back to the ground without rushing. Was thinking Lord Nelson but that's a decent hike out for an oldy.
Any ideas?

Thomas Wolsey is probably the most walkable location. |  |

or treat yourselves to a taxi/Uber and nip up to The Greyhound or Dove (food at both too), maybe come in 30 minutes or so earlier to make it worth your while |  | | |

On a matchday? That would be surprising. | |

The Wolsey is always packed before a game, so it will most certainly be open, but might not be the best place if you want somewhere to sit down. |  | | |

A good choice - good range of beer and quick service. Usually have a hot food stand out in the alley/garden | | | |
