Best Pubs around Stadium of Light?

Stadium of Light is a venue in or near Sunderland that is most often used for Soccer

My recommendation is to accept a 15-20 minute walk to the stadium and enjoy a pleasant trip to Harbour View. It's right on the seaside and boasts a load of quality ales, great food and a welcoming, friendly atmosphere for away fans. The icing on the cake? A large HD screen for showing other sports, or an earlier game in the day. The Sunderland fans aren't too rowdy, so you shouldn't struggle to find another pub to grab a nice pre-game drink.

Wearside is packed full of pubs and bars that are filled with Sunderland supporters before the game. 'The Colliery Tavern' is perhaps the most popular Sunderland FC pub and is right opposite the stadium so be sure to get there early if you want a seat!Other popular pubs within walking distance of the Stadium of Light are 'The Victory' and 'The New Democratic Club', both on North Bridge Street where you will find lots of home fans.The 'Albion Pub', a short stroll away from the stadium is away friendly as has been known to give out heaps of complimentary snacks making it very popular - though for a more relaxed pre-game drink, take the 15 walk to 'Harbour View' and enjoy seaside views, a great selection of ales and good food.
