Pre match meal for family of 4

Coggings and Co is an excellent place for a family meal if you don't mind paying to park, it is expensive to park up there though.

One to consider is The Hearth in Lewes for pizzas: http://www.thehearth.co/

Unless they have hired a new cleaner in the last 2 months avoid The Black Lion like the plaque, the toilets were disgusting! Sticking a bucketful of toilet blocs in the urinals doesn't make them clean!
For a food establishment they really aren't good enough, oh and my wife tells me Ladies were equally as bad...

1st ever visit to the completed Amex today and am bringing my family (other half and 6 yr old and 5 yr old). Wondering where is good for a pre match meal near the ground? We are driving from Suffolk down so are fully mobile, and then parking in the bridge car park.

Any kind people got any recommendations? If there's already a thread about this then be happy to be pointed in its direction.

So where did you end up?

Not much near the ground. The Swan in Falmer village did very good burgers and cheesey chips the last time I was there (and a nice pint of Palmers real ale). Burger van and fish and chip van directly outside the ground if you want overpriced Withdean-era grub. Pies on the concourses. Or head back in to Brighton. Swan might be the best bet if you're parking in the bridge.

Too late for the match for the OP but, to add another option, the burgers and fish and chips etc on sale near the bandstand are excellent now.

They do smell nice - but after a LARGE sausage roll and a few TOO many pints of Guinness in DICKS I haven't partaken of said establishments

I agree, the problem comes when trying to eat them though, there isn't really anywhere to put them down outside, unless you try to take them into the ground of course, although it doesn't really get much easier there either. Those cardboard trays that the fish and chips are served in, are just so flimsy.

Not tried the burgers for a while but there's nothing excellent about the fish. Had it before Brentford. Won't be returning.
