There are only a handful of restaurants near Old Trafford football stadium, the legendary home of Manchester United, and the city's most famous landmark.
It is located just 2 miles (4km) from Manchester city centre, with Lancashire County Cricket Club's Emirates Old Trafford cricket ground nearby.
As you'd expect, most Old Trafford pubs and bars get very busy on match days, both before and after the game with fans meeting up for a pint and a sing-a-long.
Old Trafford metrolink tram stop is attached to Lancashire County Cricket Ground, just 10 minutes walk from Manchester United along Warwick Road, and only 7 minutes journey time to Deansgate Castlefield in the city centre, where there is a further choice of bars.
For those going to "The Theatre Of Dreams", you can also get off the tram at Pomona (5 minutes journey from Deansgate Castlefield) or Exchange Quay (7 mins journey), both being an easy 12 minutes walk to Old Trafford football stadium.
Salford Quays, The Lowry, Imperial War Museum North and MediaCityUK are also a pleasant 12 minute walk from Old Trafford Football Stadium, with some great pre-match offers to be had.
Alternatively, Manchester United fans can catch a match day river cruise barge direct to Old Trafford from the bars in both Castlefield and Spinningfields. |
