| The Crown |  |
|
| The nearest pub is the Crown, which is just behind the ground on the main Whalley Road. Opened in 2007, this is Accrington Stanley's very own pub and welcomes all fans from all clubs.
This pub has facilities such as big screen TV and Pool Tables. Also has a large beer garden |
||
| The Peel Park hotel | ||
| For those who get to Accrington early and would rather a pub with Real Ale, then The Peel Park Hotel maybe the one for you. This pub is located in turkey Street near the old Accrington Stanley ground and listed in the CAMRA guide. Also serves food, so ideal for the early birds. Go along Whalley Road (A680) towards the town centre. Before reaching the town centre turn left onto the B6237

| Leave the M6 at Junction 29 and take the M65 towards Blackburn. Continue past Blackburn towards Accrington and leave the M65 at Junction 7. Then take the left hand exit at the roundabout onto the A6185 towards Clitheroe (this is in the opposite direction to Accrington). At the first set of traffic lights turn right onto the A678, towards Padiham, and then at the next traffic lights, turn right onto the A680 towards Accrington. After about half a mile along the A680 you will pass the Crown pub on your left. Take the next left into Livingstone Road and then an immediate left for the Club car park. The car park is of a reasonable size and is free, so get there early otherwise it's street parking. | ||
| By Train | ||
| Accrington station is about a mile away from the ground. Leave the station and travel down the slope towards the large viaduct roundabout in the centre of town. Take the Milnshaw Lane exit at the opposite side of the roundabout alongside the Perry's Peugeot dealership. After approximately 100 metres this road then joins Whalley Road. Bear left up the hill and follow Whalley Road for about a mile, passing the hospital, a set of traffic lights and then a mini roundabout. Take the next right after the mini roundabout junction into Livingstone Road. The football club is approximately 100 metres on the left on Livingstone Road. | ||
