Only been once and the long wait to get served was one of the reasons we haven’t been back.

Great atmosphere but takes ages to get served....it helps when they have the extra pop up bars outside selling typical shit football pub lager.....
but I will be there again because that's where so many of my Villa mates go to. It's become part of our Wembley tradition.

Inside is a nightmare to get served, but they had pop up bars outside for the FA Cup semi and final...and they had built a new bar outside for last years playoff final (serving Guinness, Hop House, and crap like Carling or Fosters). Never had any issues getting served last year and it was rammed. It’s not cultured by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s always a great atmosphere full of happy Villa enjoying a song and a pint in the sun.

I went to the Green Man early on last season as I had some time to kill. It was the first time I'd been there. I was pleasantly surprised at the (comparative) ease in which we got served but it was early. As stated, there are a few outdoor kiosks & I don't think any of us actually went inside the pub at all.
It's a good laugh and good experience and a great atmosphere. It's not really my scene though as I hate crowds. For locality, I doubt you'll find a better pre-match drink anywhere around Wembley. When we left, the green at the bottom of the road was also ram packed with people who had stocked up from Tescos. At that time (3 hours before kick off), they had drunk Tescos dry so perhaps not the best of ideas.

Last year, we went for a curry at Station 31, then drinks at The Corner House and The Arch, all on the Harrow Road round by Wembley Stadium station. Both boozers were busy, but surprisingly far from being insufferable, especially considering how close to the ground they are.

Anyone know if we can use the Arch pub this year? I know it’s not on the list but was pretty decent last year.
