Wolverhampton: Directions, Beer & Food

[Diego_Sideburns]

This information may be out of date in an ever-changing world.

 

Wolverhampton Wanderers, Molineux, Waterloo Road, Wolverhampton, WV1 4QR

 

Away fans can be located in one of two areas, The Stan Cullis Quadrant if only up to 1500 fans, or the Steve Bull Lower. If for any reason you need to collect your tickets on the day, there is a designated away ticket collection point. To confirm where this is located Wolves advise you to contact your Ticket Office or call Wolves on 0871 222 1877.

Access to the Stadium is via electronic turnstiles and your ticket will display a barcode. The turnstiles will open 90 minutes before kick-off.

NOTE: It is strongly advised that colours are kept covered around the ground and city centre (and that goes for your cars too).

 

Disabled facilities:

There are 46 accessible parking spaces by the Stan Cullis stand, and spaces in other official Wolves car parks. There are 14 spaces for wheelchair users in the away section. The exact location for away supporters is dependent on the ticket allocation for the visiting club.

There are 16 accessible radar key-operated toilets located in concourse areas. A dedicated lounge behind the Stan Cullis Stand provides a stewarded meeting place and refreshment area pre-match and half-time with a warm welcome (sometimes including a hot drink) extended to away fans.

Alternatively, to park away from the stadium and surrounding area, if you turn left at the 2^nd set of lights into the city centre you may find a space in one of the many Council-run 'pay & display' car parks ranging between £3 and £6 for five hours. The Civic Centre car park normally remains open for night matches and costs £2.70 for three hours or £3 for evenings after 5:30pm.

Where to drink:

Alcohol is available inside the stadium this includes Carling, Banks's Bitter (Can), Aston Manor Cider (Bottle), Magners Cider (Bottle), Guinness (Can), plus wine and spirits.

 

Molineux is only a 10 minute walk away from the city centre where there are plenty of pubs to be found. NOTE: By far the greater majority of these are for home supporters only on match-days (even the Wetherspoon’s has bouncers on the door demanding to see a match ticket for one of the home sections before being allowed entry).

 

The Walkabout bar in the city centre (on Queen Street) seems to be the designated pub for away fans.

 

The Great Western, behind the train station is said to be a great pub, but is quite small and away fans must not wear colours.

 

There is a small bar called the Bluebrick inside the Premier Inn hotel, located near to the railway station, which has been used by away fans. If arriving by train then as you leave the station entrance, turn right and you will see a walkway going down under the station. At the bottom of the walkway turn left and after a short walk you will see the Bluebrick over on your right.

 

Also some away supporters have used the Litten Tree in Victoria Street and the Goose (formerly the Lady Wulfrun) in Lichfield Street, which serves food. http://www.goosewolverhampton.co.uk/ The link contains an opportunity to register for a Goose voucher to save £2 on a four-pint pitcher of Magners Golden Draught.

 

The Posada, 48 Lichfield Street is an unspoilt old fashioned pub with a quirky interior and a selection of real ales.

 

NOTE: The Prince Albert pub near the station should be avoided.

 

Where to eat:

The best fish and chip shop close to the stadium is in Staveley Road. Be aware that there is nearly always a queue but it's said to be worth the wait, with the special meal deals being particularly good value and very tasty. There are plenty of cheap fast-food stands close to the stadium and also an Asda Superstore.

Inside the stadium, each Stand has a number of dedicated refreshment kiosks offing a variety of food and drink options, from the famous Balti pie to burgers and sweets and crisps. Hot, soft and alcoholic drinks are also available in all Stands. To view the kiosk menus and prices click on this link.

Cash Machines:

The nearest machines are located at the Asda Superstore just opposite from the Stadium, and of course there are numerous cash machines and banks in the city centre.

 

Museum:

The Club’s new Museum, located in the Stan Cullis Stand, is said to be a fantastic and informative experience even for away fans. It includes interactive games, the story of the Club’s history and, as a founder of the Football League, a history of football in this country, as well as an historic memorabilia and cinema experience. The Museum is open on match-days with last admissions being 1 and a half hours before kick-off. Tickets cost £7 for adults, £4.50 for concessions and £18 for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children) To book tickets click here or call the Ticket Office on 0871 222 1877.

I'll never forget Mr Taylor nearly setting the entire Moon off when we were there in the Cup. It wasn't exactly the most relaxed atmosphere anyway before he got on a chair and started singing

We're in the Stan Cullis Lower Stand this time.
