About this Pub

The Drayton Park

Why it's great for Matchdays

It's the closest pub to the Emirates Stadium, making it a convenient pre-match meeting point for Arsenal home supporters. The venue shows live sport on TV, and recent matchday reports describe a strong Arsenal-only vibe since reopening, so it fills up quickly with home fans. Expect a lively atmosphere right by the ground and televised football inside—ideal for soaking up the build-up before heading over the bridge to the stadium.

What a great Arsenal pub and wow was it busy on Match day but its location is right opposite Emirates Stadium and the beer selection is very good. This is a home team only pub and they do not allow away fans at all

Recently refurbished and looking absolutely brand new. Loads of space, big TVs showing the sport, friendly staff, and sensible prices. Perfect pre- or post-match stop, especially being right next to the Emirates.

Great, friendly local. Closest pub to the Emirates but more than just a football pub. Lovely staff, clean pub. You can order quality pizza in. Recommended!

This pub has just had a complete refit - and what a wonderful job they’ve done. The attention to detail and authenticity in the fixtures & fittings is outstanding, but it’s still a classic London boozer and community pub at heart - with all the atmosphere of a friendly local. It’s not been turned into yet another restaurant with beer taps! It’s also worth noting that The Drayton Park is now an Arsenal home pub when there are games in at The Emirates - and it’s probably the nicest “boozer” near Arsenal. There’s even a giant mural of Granit Xhaka in the garden! Please do visit this pub if you are in the area, it’s been a long time coming but was well worth the wait.
