I had a few down by the Waterfront earlier in the season after a game, but is that the pre match choice too? Curve? Greyhound? Anywhere else? Thanks all. |  |

You cheeky so and so!! I said they are a tough team to like right now, doesn't mean I don't support them. But thanks for your input. |  |

| I'm coming to Portman Road Saturday on 14:20 - Dec 15 with 484 views | Meadowlark | Our pre-match pub is about a 20 minutes walk from the ground with a great selection of cask ales, we can always get served quickly and they provide a suitable lunchtime eats menu. In addition our table is always - well usually, reserved for us and it's not a rowdy or shouty pub, which befits our advancing years. However, I'm sworn to secrecy over its name and location for fear it becomes too popular. I also think that if the waterfront hostelries, the Greyhound or the Curve Bar are on your shortlist, you would be severely disappointed by our little gem. There are some cracking pubs in Ipswich though, but if I was to name them all, by a process of elimination you would determine where we preside, so I'll say no more. |  | |  |

HaHa fair enough. Not a cask ale man, so probably not for me, I do like a bit of pre match atmosphere, but can also appreciate those that favour a quieter spot, some good beer and a natter about all things ITFC. |  |

Sounds like your pub could be a symbol of peace. |  |

Closer to the ground but not as swamped on matchday, you could try Brewer's Arms or Jude's Tavern. Black Horse conveniently close but often rammed. If you want to bump into Simon Milton after, go to Arcade Tavern. |  | |  |
