RedSetters Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 Arriving into New St about midday. Not done St Andrews before but been told to drink near station not the ground.

Cheers For the discerning Cider drinker, head out on to New Street and up the hill towards the Birmingham Museum. On the left near the top of the hill you'll find the Post Office Vaults. It's a single doorway off the street and down a flight of stairs. They normally have between 20 and 30 ciders on tap and bottle. Other good Birmingham central pubs are The Wellington, The Old Joint Stock or The Sun on the Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers I would ask whoever told you to drink near the station which pub they advise As for "Where we all going?" . . . . . I assume that you are travelling alone, otherwise this is a bit sad !! 11 hours ago, Mr Popodopolous said: @RedSetters Evening Officer! Julie H too obvious a poster to ask this I guess...

The Batman Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 I work in Birmingham. Head of steam is a glorious place. But I don't know what their match day rules are. Same goes for the rest of the pubs. New pub just opened opposite head of steam called flight club, literally only a fortnight ago. These two are on the same road is the trocadero. Post office vaults is a great shout, as is the old joint stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T R Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 The Anchor inn is a good traditional pub it's on the corner of the coach station. Had a great time in there last time we went. If you walk up 100 metres and you come across the white swan and then after that another 100 metres, turn left you come to the spotted dog. Nice little pub crawl if they're still open.

SinéadB Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 If you ordered them in time they should be delivered, but if not then you'll be able to collect them. I'd email the ticket office, as they've usually let me know where I can collect if I ordered too late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
