Getting there

  • South BermondseyTrains from London Bridge; away fans use the dedicated segregated walkway straight to the away turnstiles.
  • Surrey Quays / BermondseyPossible on the Overground and Jubilee lines but the police prefer away fans on the South Bermondsey route.
  • DrivingNot advised — the streets around the ground are tightly controlled.

Safe away spots

  • Eat in central LondonThe honest advice: eat around London Bridge or Bermondsey Street and travel in close to kick-off. Map
  • Bermondsey StreetGood pubs and restaurants, 15 minutes from South Bermondsey by train. Map
  • Away concourseStandard stadium fare inside; the away end has its own bar. Map

Off the beaten track

Lower-profile pubs, cafés and corners the locals keep to themselves.

  • The Ship & Whale, Rotherhithe

    Quiet dockland pub with a yard, well away from the Den's immediate streets.

    Open in maps
  • Surrey Quays / Russia Dock Woodland

    Old dock basins turned into woods and ponds; a calm walk before kick-off.

    Open in maps
  • Brunel Museum, Rotherhithe

    The original Thames tunnel shaft chamber — tiny, strange and rarely busy.
