I've not seen a thread about the refreshments available at Upton Park. Will pie and mash be made available? :think [url]http://www.qype.co.uk/place/1857904-Seaside-Pie-Mash-Eastbourne[/url]
Just jellied eels, I'm afraid. Oh and only glass bottles of drinks will be served some you can "Gah-lass" people.
I had some at the Mitchell/Katsids fight. Crap and over-priced. Check on here for something better and nearby: [url]http://www.pie-and-mash.com/shops.php[/url]
Dixy Chicken There are 3 outlets of this franchise, serving the kind of menu you would expect at KFC. Varying offers, depending on outlet - 2 are situated on Green Street, one right opposite Queens Fish Bar, and another on the Barking Road (A124) Kebabish Located on the corner of Green Street and Plashet Grove. Offers Balti dishes, curries, tikka's and roti (not really sure what a roti is to be quite honest....) You can sit down inside to have your grub. Duncan's Pie, Mash & Eels 365 Green Street, E13 - Open from 10h30 to 18h00 - situated just outside Upton Park tube. Fairly popular on match days and a way to sample a slice of East End London. Priory Road Turning off from A124 Barking Road. West Ham's favourite Burger Bar - Priory Road, E13. This is a very West Ham place to get food. Painted in claret and blue, it offers many a burger with special names such as the Terminator, named after west Ham hero Julian Dicks. Try the StevieBaconBurger (named after West Ham United and Newham Recorder photographer Steve Bacon) - 2 Burgers and bacon - yours for three notes Guv'nor. Eran Fish and Chips Located on Barking Road. Pasties, sausages, fish and chips. Again this is another popular place, and queues can get very long at times. Ken's Café Located on Green Street. Quite popular on match days as it is quite close to the ground. Hamburgers, Hotdogs and cheeseburgers are reasonably priced. Seating is available inside.
Thank god somebody made this thread, I was wondering if this highly pertinent issue was going ot be pushed aside. Likewise, I'm worried about the prospect of people being confused and buying tickets thinking it's a football match instead of a boxing fight, because it's in a football stadium. Should I make a thread to see whether people think it's a genuine concern to have?
Here is a picture of some 'Pie & Mash' for those unfamiliar with the dish This content is protected MMMM tasty.
