Southend boozers on Saturday

[poidy]

This will be my first trip to Southend so not to sure on the best 'away friendly' pubs to go in.

Will be training it in but still unsure whether to get off at Southend or Prittlewell. Are there any half decent boozers in Prittlewell?

 

[dannyboy]

i dont think there is, if youre getting down there early get off at southend central and go down seafront , we are

 

[dannyboy]

forgot to say then its back to southend central bus station for a bus to the ground

is there a pub near the ground to watch city v united

 

[saafend_seagull]

There are no pubs in Prittlewell.

Im going to the last post (Weatherspoons) opposite southend central station. Usually has 2 projector screens for the football, i.e. man city v man utd, then you can take a bus, or even walk (probably 25 mins, maybe 30 to the ground)

No pubs worthy of any visit on the seafront

What station is best for the rippers pub, Forresters or something?

The Railway Hotel just outside Southend Central is a great little boozer, used to be THE Northern Soul hang out back in the 80's, spent many many nights in there, looking forward to going back there in August. It's a good 30 minute walk to the ground from there though - around Roots Hall there's f*** all other than that one right outside which I understand is now shut....

Enjoy, and here's to the 3 points that mean relegation talk is over....

No station is close to the seafront, but southend central, and then a 20 minute walk, but then the walk back is up the hill

oh dear, well that's a shame then - used to love that place back in the day, lager and black with a pernod chaser then upsatirs for some Northern Soul and the inevitable ruck....
On reflection, that was more like 25 year ago, god I'm feeling old all of a sudden.....
