    After you've been to the game, where is your preferred boozer for a pint ?

    I know Reckless uses the Coach & Horses. I use the Victoria.

    What about the rest of you lads ?

    I always use the British Queen - Spurs Pub, on back street - Need match ticket (spurs) to get in and no away support allowed!! No long waits for a pint, brilliant! Big screens to watch a match before or after - Food, what more could you ask!:D

    I know the pub well. Just down from WHL Train Station.

    Have been there manys a time before the game in days gone by.

    Yes, I am usually coming out on the train from Liverpool street (10 mins) so it works well for me!

    Doesn't sound like a Shane and Ronan sort of place :D;) from this review
    Good pre-match drinkin'. Does attract the geekier end of the Spurs fanbase ie: Statto types in flat caps covered in badges but very friendly and reasonably priced.

    Hector is a cheeky bastard!

    I'd like to see him refer to some of the "faces" who've been known to pop in as geeky...:D

    was thinking the same. haven't been in there myself but I know a few lads who frequent the place and they're definitely not statto types ;)

    Always the C&H. Our local, we're part of the furniture now.

    Although The Volunteer sometimes comes into play on the way to Tottenham Hale.
    Lovely little boozer. The elbow room at Bruce Grove also worth a mention

    We allways go to the Irish centre in haringey, great place just a five min walk from the lane.A few of us went into the brick-layers for a pint once but didin't stay long,it looked like a tough place.

    Today started in the Gilpins, moved on to the White Horse in Edmonton (real pub rather than a football boozer) then back to the C&H.

    After match was a quick scoot down to the Volunteer.

    My head hurts.

    Did you not find the White Horse a bit rough Reckless ?

    The Irish Centre is a great base before games. Nice clean bar, close to the ground and a cheap pint. I've gone in there since I was kid. Used to be busy 7 nights a week in those days. Not so now days as lot of the local Irish have either moved home or passed away.

    I was just thinking this thread is starting to sound like an article from the Sunday World's 'Pub Spy'.

    Had a few "tour guides" shall we say, so we got on OK. Recognised quite a few from various trips away, has a nice feel as a boozer.

    Wanted to try the Victoria on the way back but can't beat the Volunteer for ease of access to Tottenham Hale so we headed there...then found out the Stansted Express was still running from Seven Sisters!
