If you want a drink before the game a few pubs all together withun 100 yds "wetherspoons ivor davies" next door admiral ,across the road
Hudo lounge, canton cross be wise not to have colours on full display hudo lounge is not as intense as other 3
In town old arcade nice pub seating outside 2 others 50 yds away also seating outside owain glyndwr, market tavern ,and head of steam .so you don' t have to walk or fall far.
