Times are a guide from the published kick-off — always allow extra for engineering works and matchday road closures.
Getting there
- Bus from Lime Street — The 917 and other matchday services run direct from the city centre to Anfield.
- Walking via Everton — A 30-40 minute walk uphill through Georgian Liverpool for those who fancy it, well signed on matchdays.
- Driving — M62 to the A5058 Queens Drive; the stadium's own car parks need pre-booking, with street parking heavily restricted nearby.
Safe away spots
- The Sandon, Anfield Road — Historic pub next to the ground, one of the traditional matchday meeting points. Map
- Homebaked bakery, Oakfield Road — Community-run bakery right by the ground, excellent pies before kick-off. Map
- Stanley Park kiosks — Food vans along the park route between Goodison and Anfield. Map

Anfield stadium tour and museum
Includes the dressing room and the famous 'This Is Anfield' sign, book ahead.
Open in mapsLiverpool waterfront
The Pier Head and Albert Dock are a bus ride into the city centre, worth combining with a visit.

Lower-profile pubs, cafés and corners the locals keep to themselves.
Homebaked, Oakfield Road
Community bakery that reopened after fan campaigns saved it from demolition, a genuinely local story.
Open in mapsThe Twelfth Man, Walton Breck Road
A smaller, quieter pub than the famous Sandon, popular with regulars rather than tourists.
Open in mapsAnfield Cemetery
A peaceful, historic cemetery a short walk from the ground, rarely visited by matchgoers.

Local event
Liverpool Christmas markets
The waterfront and city centre are packed with festive visitors from late November, adding to bus and walking-route congestion.
Transport alert
Midweek kick-off
A 19:45 start in Liverpool means the last realistic train back leaves around 22:15. Check the connection before you buy a ticket.
Ground note
Anfield Road is very tight for space around the ground — arrive well before kick-off as queues build early for big fixtures.
Ground note
Post-match buses and the walk back into the city centre are extremely congested; allow plenty of time.
