Monkey Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Another option for pre game is Clockwork Beer Co. It's closer to Hampden and also has been commandeered by Dons fans for the game. No need to book there either unless wanting the parking for buses, which I think is full already anyway. Link to comment
Jazzer_Bett Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Are we 100% sure there will be no Sellick in the Church on the Hill? Have they made it Dons only Link to comment

Clockwork is good, good selection of beer and whisky even brews its own beer and it has 3d tv, i stay in weegie land and that's nae far from my flat so there couple times a month Link to comment
ChookterDon Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Fellow Dandies! Is the Church on the Hill the "Unofficial" massing point for dons fans wanting a drink and a bite to eat before the game on Saturday?*EDIT Saturday meaning the Semi-finalStand Free Link to comment

Pash Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Church on the Hill is what you are thinking of, used to be called Buddha.That's where the Alford Reds (and 4 wee neds) will be drinking before the game! Link to comment

Me and mate heading down wi 3 kids all aged under 10 would we get in there for a pint and a bite to eat?Yeah I would think so mate. Give them a ring, it's up to the landlord but most do allow it as long as their supervised and out of the pub by 8 Link to comment
RAZOR Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Kids are allowed in the Church on the Hill. Hoping to get the chance to meet a few hatters in there. Link to comment

Always good to put a face to the name like. Not sure if my picture is still up in the gallery,if not ill put it up this week so you know who to buy a beer for. Link to comment

RAZOR Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I take it you're nae stopping off with the Ullevi in Plean or farever thay are stopping?/No KSL we just fancied going straight into Glasgow for a change. I'm lead to believe this place is walkable distance from Hampden so that's fine. But all our tickets will be together so ill come give you a holla. Link to comment
effektive Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 The Church on the Hill (formerly Bar Buddah) at the Battlefield monument is taking Dons fans on the day but I believe due to the numbers you needed to prebook to get in. They should have the beer garden open outside the front/side for outside pints although I think you need to book for that also. The clockwork as mentioned is also another good option and nearer Hampden. Reckon most Sellick fans will be drinking East side and some bars on Vicky road pre-match. Our squad will be at the church, see you all there! STAND FREE! Link to comment

Been twice for Scotland games.I'd prefer to head there myself, but not to matter, beers beer wherever you get it. I'll look out for you at the game. :thumbs: Link to comment
ChookterDon Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 You sure you have to pre-book mate? Seems a bit ridiculous...I'm hoping its not true... Link to comment
deco_1985 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 You sure you have to pre-book mate? Seems a bit ridiculous...I'm hoping its not true... Whoever saying you have to pre book is talking nonsense. Spoke to the guy and he said there are 10 Aberdeen coaches booked in, and he expects a lot more people to appear on the day. It might be an idea to pre book if you are running a bus etc, but the only way you won't get in is if its full. Kids also welcome Link to comment
zander Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 You sure you have to pre-book mate? Seems a bit ridiculous...I'm hoping its not true... Not really when you think about it, be nice to have a pub full of dons but don't want it to hard to get a pint. Link to comment
