Drank in an Irish bar in town previously which was a bit moody. Wouldn't recommend the local leisure centre bar despite what football ground guide says!
Leisure centre is a pretty souless pre-match venue for a drink but I don't know where else to drink. Went out with a Barnsley girl once so went there a few times but that was twenty years ago so no clue of any decent boozers. Locals are quite insular so should be fun.
Anyway, Mrs AUN is coming with me for her first Charlton game ever so hope she gets a good first impression.

Extracts from Football Ground Guide ' Dove Inn on Doncaster Road is listed in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide, is an outlet for the Old Mill Brewery. It is only a five minute walk away from the ground down Oakwell Lane and is happily frequented by both home and away fans. Further along Doncaster Road (on the right after the Primary School on the left) is the Barnsley East Dene Working Mens Club, which is happy to admit visiting supporters (including accompanied children) without entry charge. You can also leave your car there at a cost of £1.50. Drinking in the town centre is generally not recommended, especially near the Bus & Train Stations, although you can get a hassle free pint (or two) in the Joseph Bramah (Lloyds No.1) Wetherspoons in the centre provided you are not wearing colours'. Spoons as a last resort then AUN anyway you'll be alright because you speak the lingo :0)
