Away fans' pubs

No away-only pubs. Away fans can use the Fan Zone bar at the ground, and the Charles Darwin has been fine in the past.

Behind the South Stand. Away fans can go in.

The Charles Darwin

Sutton Road (SY2 6HN). Has been friendly to away fans.

Smithy’s Bar

Updated Oct 2026. Away-fan rules can change for big games, so check on the day.

Getting there

The ground is about 2 miles from Shrewsbury station, so get a bus or taxi, or walk it in around 40 minutes.

Parking

Streets near the ground get busy on match days, so pre-book a space rather than hoping to find one.

Local food

Chicken balti pie

Half-time catering. Inside the ground.

Away fans rate it as one of the best chicken balti pies going.
