bluebird27 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Hi All, Am up again from Cardiff for The Poland Game. I fancy trying the Church on The Hill pre Game. Anybody on here tried it, and what's it like, Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzo Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 It's ok but a couple of hours before kick off it can be murder to get served Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringo Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I've been there a few times before Utd semi-finals, finals and a couple of concerts and quite like it. Will probably meet there before Germany game too but as bonzo says it can be busy at the bar. 1-2 times I've been there they've had extra beer taps either outside or at the entrance which helps.

fringo Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Ok great. Thanks for that. Will take a look. Cheeers It's a big pub with room outside too and if you're looking for grub to line the stomach you can also book a table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebird27 Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 Thanks fringo. 7 hrs on Train, gonna need a bit of grub I think. Sure plenty of takeaways en route from Central. Can't drink after eating though,- so need to take it easy on The Food !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringo Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Thanks fringo. 7 hrs on Train, gonna need a bit of grub I think. Sure plenty of takeaways en route from Central. Can't drink after eating though,- so need to take it easy on The Food !! Phone them and book a table. It's basically part of the bar so not any swanky, separate dining. I was last there in June for a concert with 9 others. A few of the guys orders pizzas (which I missed on the menu as I was late and rushed) and they looked pretty tasty and good feeding to go with beers. Reasonably priced too. Enjoy !

1ANDYP Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Mcneills and Queens Park cafe are just up from the vicy bar and neesons and Pandora are only across the road. Armstrong on battlefield rd and florida park are nearer the stadium. Shawlands is a wee bit further away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
