For any info ahead of game at Spurs other than tickets and coach travel.

Links for these threads along with ticket info and Accy Clarets will be in the sticky post.

Any good recommendations for away fan friendly pubs nearby? The first time I went we went to the Irish Centre but looks like that's closed now.

The Beehive seems fine. Not sure what they're like if you're wearing colours but never had any problems going there.

The Antwerp Arms is away friendly and the Redemption Taproom.

In the F.A cup game we couldn't get a beer anywhere near the ground. as home fans only allowed in pubs
Had to get back on the train to Silver st,
only 5 minutes away with a decent pub just around the corner from the station, and beer was cheap and good

We weren't wearing colours but we went to the Beehive before the FA cup game and it was fine.

the door staff in every pub we tried wanted to see our tickets, No away fans allowed

I'll be having a pint or two in Central London, then tube to Seven Sisters.

Is Seven Sisters the best tube station to use and how far is it from the stadium ?

Seven sisters is over a mile and a half to the stadium, plus our entrance is the furthest point away from where you approach. Post game it’s rammed. I’ve found Northumberland park station, 15 mins walk and a quick train to Stratford and then onto the Elizabeth Line for central London is less walking, gives better option for beers and is quicker. The nice Redemption Brewery Tap Room is a short detour from the route to Stadium from Northumberland Park. Gravity Well Brewery with a small drinking area is in the same Industrial block. Not had a problem getting a beer there as away fans, plus your walk to the stadium brings you out right by the little road you have to access for the away turnstiles.

The ones nearer the ground like Beavertown (although I think that was closed last time I walked past), No. 8, Bluecoats, Elbow Room, etc are all home fans only.

Beehive certainly isn't, neither are Antwerp Arms or Redemption.

If you're getting a tube then Seven Sisters is the nearest. It's a bit of a trek but you can often hop on a bus up the high road or if you stop off at the Beehive that breaks the walk up. Or there's the train options but I can never be bothered with those.

Seven Sisters is a good half hour walk to the stadium.

Depending where you are starting your journey from a better option might be overground from Liverpool Street to White Hart Lane station, which is only 5 minutes walk to the stadium.

If you are getting to London by train from the North West, the good thing about Seven Sisters is that it is only four stops on the tube to Euston.

I've never known the station to be particularly busy after the match.
