City newbie. Best place for pre-match pint?

Thanks all. We had a good time. Went to The Centre Post ahead of kick-off, sat in the IP Stand and enjoyed Randall Williams wreaking havoc on the right in the second half. People were friendly, the game was ...OK but you can't beat a late winner.

Paid £3.20 for a pint of Doom Bar in the Toby last night. £3.50 is a rip off. Still, being a loyal mug, I'll pay it rather than go to a pub.

At least FECRACE has a decent selection of beers unlike a lot of the pubs.

I like the atmosphere in the black horse but the beer selection is often dire compared to SJP.

It didn't work very well. I went to the Topsham Taproom and Brewery on Exeter Quay.

Stopped going in the spot for a quick pre match pint a while ago with the silly prices and how long it took to get served now quite a few stay in the Duke for an extra pint and at £2.15 a pint of lager its easier on the pocket.

Welcome! You're too kind. Literally. The game was pants. We throw in a few of those, every now and them. Fortunately, it was us who got the late winner. The other way round and Exeweb would be in meltdown already!
Hope the family enjoyed themselves.

You must save about £20 a match at those prices!

You would have to pay ME a lot more than that per pint to make me even drink lager ! Lol.

I'd like to think so !
