Every pub is going to be rammed in and around Wembley, last time we went in 98 and Ebbsfleet in 2008, we found a nice little pub around the streets near Marylebone station and drank there. Left about 2 to get to the game.
going to be doing the same myself. getting to Marylebone around half 10. go to the one near the station that opens early (i hope) then heading to another one after midday opening. theres two trains and hour from there to wembley stadium station.
That’s the problem with it being a Sunday. The only one I’ve found near Waterloo (so far) that is open before 12 is the Firestation :-/
it is a pain. i guess you could go to the chain pubs. like all bar one and slug and lettuce near the eye. or the small scotter cafe on lower marsh street could be selling beers. i know they do during the day but not sure about in the morning.
Probably more likely to head towards Southwark tube and maybe go in the Windmill for a few after 12
Coming into London Bridge! Want to be in a pub with other Charlton fans, but without getting too close to Wembley where it’s gonna be nuts. Any thoughts?
Like the look of the Green Man, 1/2 an acre beer garden!.
anyone been before, will it be ridiculously packed or will everyone think that and go somewhere else?, guessing they’ve got it down to a fine art coping with big crowds
Going for a Wembley Park curry. Guaranteed a seat for a few pints of dodgy lager. Same as 98 though only 3/8 same personnel. Will try to arrive before 2.45 this time!
All well and good going London Bridge/borough market but it’s a Sunday so nothing open pre 12, and then a 33 min tube journey you would be looking to leave at 1.30/1.45pm latest.
Anyone know what time the green man will open my group are meeting at 930 at London Bridge and heading straight to Wembley

Sir John Balcombe?...there was another small pub around there called the Swan and Edger which has been shut down.
Brentford fans made this their pub before their last play-off final. They booked breakfast followed by a decent drink. There must have been 80-100 Bees in there and it didn't feel packed. Couple of stops on the Jubilee and you're at Wembley.
The Black Lion in Kilburn (see Simonsen's photo above) is on the Inventory of Historic Interiors. Much Victorian woodwork survives - despite the efforts of an Irish builder during 'renovation' a few years ago.

Need to actually learn my lesson and not stay in the pub for too long, missed Bielek's goal on Friday and it was the only good moment for about another 110 minutes! I 100% want to get the hassle of getting to Wembley out of the way so i'll probably join the 39k others in The Green Man

Why are there no customers if it so great! 😉
They're all in the Public Bar, which is even better!
Look at the link in the 3rd post. It will surely be the same as for cup final.
I tweeted Green man last night, they confirmed we have been allocated the pub and they will have food stalls/vans. Leaving Dartford at 9.30ish to get there for opening 😂
You'll be pretty late then, they've said they're opening at 9am.
have no idea how packed the green man is going to be if arriving by 10.30am i would imagine i would be pretty safe to get in?, for the england spain game although the inside bar was carnage the outside bar was brilliant £4.00 pints of either beer ( carling ) or cider ( strongbow ) and that was it made it very quick to get served, cash only from memory aswell

Each to their own obviously, but i don't understand people who'd want to sit in a quiet pub in the build up to our biggest game for 21 years.

I'll say it again; Black Lion, Kilburn.
