Pub(s) for Wembley

Where are you drinking on Sunday

Where are we drinking if arriving at Wembley Central ? Bit of a hike to the Torch ?
Try Fan lounge - offers 5 Wembley pubs inc The Torch (us), and The Green Man (Latics) , a Spoons and BoxPark and The Parish which is en route to Wembley from The Torch.
Guessing The Parish saves a further 10 minute walk if coming from Wembley Central.
 
Might I suggest some points of local interest if arriving at Wembley Central;
J.J Moons - early refresher
The Parish Bar - luchtime refreshments, en rte to
The Torch for partying, singing and getting "in the mood"...
BoxPark I'm guessing for early doors and sit tight as it's sooo close and will fill quickly

🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺 everything in moderation
 
I’m taking kids (and OAPs), as much as I would love a few hours in a SUFC pub we are heading into Wembley early and going to get food & drink there. We’re in the middle tier (club Wembley?) so hoping it’ll have some places open.
The middle tier is a much better concourse that the other two levels. There are places to sit and have a drink and eat. It's not as hectic as the other areas either. Food choices can still be a bit limited though.
 
Sunday made easy!
Liverpool Street to Baker Street (Spoons)
From London Liverpool Street take the Circle Line, the Hammersmith & City Line or the Metropolitan Line (Westbound, Platform 2) all of which are direct services to Baker Street Underground Station.

Get out here for the Wetherspoon Metropolitan bar, it’s right next to the station. (open from 8am apparently)
Meet other Shrimpers and drink beers.

Then walk from spoons to Marylebone station, only 6-8minutes depending on your earlier consumption! It’s an easy route.

Then Marylebone station direct to Wembley stadium station (9 minutes direct).
Then more refreshments before going into the stadium. Let’s have and hope for a great day. Up the Shrimpers!
 
These are the 2 main pubs our fans will be congregating towards. There are many more of course, but these will be the most popular. Click on pub name for map.

🍻 The Globe, just outside Baker Street tube station. You also have the Metropolitan (spoons) there. From Baker Street it's the Bakerloo line to Marylebone (or 10 min walk) and then the Chiltern line to Wembley Stadium station. You can also stay on the Bakerloo line to Wembley Central, but that's a bit further from the stadium and right in the middle of Oldham territory for the day. Opens at 11am.

🍻 The Torch, top of Wembley Way near Wembley Park tube station (which of course is closed). A leisurely 15 min walk down Wembley Way to the stadium. Awaiting confirmation, but likely to be our main designated pub and open at either 10 or 11am. Will be busy, arrive early or its a 1 in 1 out policy.
 
Some people think the world of the Globe. Anyone got a map? Atlas(t) I might get to go there. Especially as Napster is buying a round.
 
The pub situation for the east side of the stadium isn't great. All of them are a trek from Wembley Central or Wembley Stadium, not to mention there's less capacity which means longer queues etc.

Does anyone have any experience of the east side pubs, sizes etc? The Torch sounds like it will be busy and I doubt I'll be able to get to any of them until 12pm at the absolute earliest.

Drinking and subsequently eating up time in central London will likely mean transport issues getting to the stadium with thousands of fans, queuing for stations and trains etc.
