Been to ewood numerous times and visited the local pubs as well,which i found to be a bit ropey,this time the wife is tagging along, :( anyone know of any decent pubs in the area that do food.many thanks
Fernhurst Lodge on the A666, 100 yards from the ground. I can’t vouch for it but is apparently an away supporters pub and you can’t argue with the location.
Edit: I should add that they do food.
Stolen from an away fans guide:
The majority of pubs in the immediate vicinity of Ewood Park are strictly “home only” and should be avoided by visiting fans. The White Bull, on Livesey Branch Road is away friendly, with a reportedly excellent atmosphere and good range of beers on offer.
The Fernhurst Arms on the Bolton Road is the traditional “away” pub, located opposite the Darwen end of the stadium. It is spacious, with a good restaurant to the rear and a large screen with Sky and Setanta sports. Parking is also available, but departure will be delayed due to road closures (see above).
For fans arriving at Mill Hill station, the Navigation is only a 5- minute walk away. Turn left on exiting the station and the pub is on the right near the bridge over the canal. It reportedly offers a good mix of home and away supporters.
Fernhurst is no longer an away pub – home only.
garswood is right the Fernhurst was subject to a management change a while ago and they turned it into home fans only.
You’ll probably need to go closer to the town centre for pubs that will let away fans in.
