Rugby Park is one of those great venues where there's an away-friendly bar built-in to the stadium! Called the Sports Bar, this little gem sits under the Frank Beattie stand and is open (and free) before the game. Another option is the Park Hotel which is right by the stadium. For a greater selection, just stick around town and get your drinks in there; it's only 10 minutes' walk from the stadium, so you won't be doing yourself any harm with the walk.

If you want a drink then you will probably have to stay in the centre of town as the area around Rugby Park is sadly lacking any real options. The Wheatsheaf Inn, The Clansman and the Brass and Granite are all good choices however.Away fans are welcome at these pubs as long as they keep their heads down, but if for some reason you are not allowed in – The Park Hotel Bar admits away fans as long as you cover up your colors; and The Burns Inn has a great little beer garden that fills up on a summers game day!
