Whether you’ve worked up a (much-deserved) thirst having spent a busy day exploring, or you’re heading into the North London borough to socialise or watch an event at its infamous stadium, there are plenty of Wembley pubs to whet your appetite.
A favourite amongst the locals is The Wembley Tavern. Promising live music, your classic pub grub, the screening of every live football match - and we can’t forget happy hours. Plus, get 50 per cent off your food bill if you head there from Monday to Friday, winner!
Located just a stone’s throw away from all the action at Wembley Stadium, The White Horse offers a menu combining your pub favourites with a taste of bistro elegance. Wash the lot down with a local craft ale, a glass of vino or a non-alcoholic number, and your night is complete.
For the ultimate pre-match beer, head to Stadium Sportsbar. Ideal for grabbing a beer and burger ahead of the game, enjoying a pint while watching your team on one of their screens, or simply sampling one of their traditional cocktails. And with student discounts available, be sure to make the most of your student ID if you have one.
If you’ve visited Wembley when there’s been a match or event on at the stadium, then you’ll know it can quickly become pretty busy.
So, if you fancy staying away from the main crowds, there are plenty of bars, pubs and restaurants within walking distance for you to enjoy.
Just a short walk from Wembley (nine minutes in fact) is The Corner House. Proving the perfect spot for a pre-match beer, this refurbished Irish family-friendly pub is adored by the locals and said to serve some of the best Ale for miles.
Just a 12-minute walk from Wembley itself and handing you a slice of the action is Blue Check Bar. With three TVs and a big projector, plus a menu boasting 10 different ales, this is perfect for watching your team play while tucking into one of their 12” pizzas.
Whether you’re ready to enjoy a bevvy in the beer garden or wind down in front of the fire, The Preston has you covered. Eat, drink and socialise at this home-from-home pub, offering a menu overflowing with ales, beers, wines, gins and fizz.
Of course, it would be rude not to look at the food options too, especially with more than a dozen mouth-watering burgers to choose from. Their Ultimate French Style Burger is an absolute winner for us - a double patty topped with Montgomery cheese, and best of all, served with a beef dripping sauce. A 30-minute stroll from Wembley, giving you enough time to walk off whichever burger you go for.
