Depending on whether you catch the over or underground you have one or two options of where to grab a pint from. From Leyton tube station on the Central line there is the Leyton Technical Pub on the way to the stadium which is a former town hall. From Leyton Midland Road overground station you can walk around 1 mile north to get to the King William IV Bar and Hotel which is also a brewery, boasting over 16 different beers at any one time. Finally, at the Matchroom Stadium there is also a supporters club which permits both sets of fans to share a pint, providing there is enough space.
Leyton Orient run a club shop at Brisbane Road as well as their own official online site known as the Orient Club Shop.
The opening times for the store at the ground are as follows:. On matchdays the shop will be open for 60 minutes after the full time whistle which gives fans another chance to grab a memento of their day out. For more information, to confirm opening times or to check availability feel free to send an email to [email protected] or phone the store on Concessions apply to under 18s, students with valid ID, over 65s and members of the Armed Forces.
Parking in London is a nightmare and this is certainly true of the area surrounding The Mathroom Stadium. The closest overground railway station is Leyton Midland Road which is located 1 mile east from The Matchroom Stadium which nay or may not be convenient depending on your starting point. Turn down here or any of the preceding roads and you will arrive at the stadium.
There are basically no hotels near the Matchroom stadium with my recommendation being to either hop on the tube back to where you came from in the centre or to walk down the road to the forner site of the Olympic and Paralympic Village. There are four pitch-facing suites and a large boardroom, meaning the home of the O's is suitable for events for anywhere from five people to three hundred people. There is a dedicated events team who will tailor a package to suit your exact requirements. Tours of Brisbane Road do happen, although they tend to be at specific times of the year rather than throughout the year; half term for example.
There is no museum to speak of, but there will doubtless be memorabilia all over the place if you go on the tour. They resorted back to Orient in , becoming Leyton Orient permanently in In US based businessman and lifelong O's fan Nigel Travis - who also runs Baskin Robbins who sponsored one of the stands for a time - bought the club when it had been relegated, had no manager and no money and only 9 players, the oldest of which was Brisbane Road became the home of Leyton Orient when they moved to the Leyton district of Essex in Before that it had hosted the games of amateur team Leyton FC.
It has undergone numerous cosmetic changes over the years. The West Stand was converted into all-seating in , for example, with The South Stand getting demolished in and nothing built to replace it until It's a little pricey but unless you want to stay in a hovel you're going to have to pay for it - this is London after all. More details.
Located a mile and a half away from the ground in nearby Stratford is this 3-star hotel that promises 38 guest rooms and multilingual staff. Brisbane Road Stadium is less than half a mile from this hotel that, as the name suggests, is above a pub. It also hosts Blues nights on a regular basis, and what can be more fun that that?! Located in the old town hall and just a short walk from Leyton Underground Station is this restored beauty of a pub that serves real ale and delicious food.
Dogs are allowed in the bar area, too. This is a classic East End pub in the best sense of the phrase. In the following decades, the terraces got gradually improved and expanded, and the western terrace received cover. In , the terrace of the West Stand got converted into seating, but few changes were made until the late s when a new South Stand was built.
In , Leyton Orient opened a new West Stand, and moved the club offices and facilities from the old main stand to the West Stand.
Two years later, a new North Stand opened, leaving only the old main stand in place. To finance the developments, part of the surrounding land was sold to property developers, resulting in four apartment blocks in each corner of the stadium.
The Matchroom Stadium is located in the Leyton area in the north-east of London, approximately 5 miles from the City of London. The stadium is easily reached by metro as Leyton tube station is only a 5 to minute walk away.
Leyton is on the Central Line, which crosses right through central London. London Overground station Leyton Midland Road is also at walking distance, though a little further away. Trains connect the station with stops mostly in the north of London, though two stops further west, at Blackhorse Road, one can also transfer to the Victoria Line. The area around The Matchroom Stadium is mainly residential, though there are a few pubs and places to eat on nearby Leyton High Road. The area is one of the typical London multi-ethnic neighbourhoods with resulting food choices.
Alternatively, the regenerated centre of Stratford and adjacent Westfield Shopping Centre are only 1.
