Best Blades pub

[Canterbury Blade]

So I’m looking for the best Blades pub that’s open 7 days a week.
Cricketers and Railway need not apply given opening hours.

Days gone by Lansdowne, Cross Guns and Sportsman. But I’m after the best one now.

Got a few hours tomorrow pre match and would welcome recommendations and why??

Lord Nelson aka fannies behind Decathlon.

Why ?

Cos it’s rammed full of Blades and serves good beer at a fair price.

What are you after?

Singing, food, rammed for atmosphere, not so rammed for ease of getting drinks in, tv with the early kickoffs live, how far from BDTBL as a max?

What’s your perfection?

The ones that aren't open 7 days will be open Saturday afternoon mate. Don't stress.

Golden lion. Busy match days but decent pint at reasonable prices.

Barry's. No explanation necessary.

Partly depends what your route to the ground is. From the south, the Sheaf View, Brothers Arms and White Lion will all be full of Blades from 1(ish) onwards.

Varying levels of decent beer available in all three (Sheaf, Brothers, Lion, in that order).

Not sure its 24x7 but Brown Bear any day of the week!

Beer engine too, unless you need a telly !

 

[Bl4desutd]

Red Lion in city centre……nice pint, full of blades and plenty of bar staff

I mean this thread is just going to descend into a "I drink here pre game" thread unless Canterbury answers Cappy's question

OP wanted recommendations for today so this is slightly moot but Albion always ticks numerous boxes. Decent pint of Barnsley Bitter and manage the queue very well at that shed out the back.
