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

Off the beaten track

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 maps

  • The Twelfth Man, Walton Breck Road

    A smaller, quieter pub than the famous Sandon, popular with regulars rather than tourists.

    Open in maps

  • Anfield Cemetery

    A peaceful, historic cemetery a short walk from the ground, rarely visited by matchgoers.

Transport alert

Standard Saturday

Nothing unusual in the Liverpool diary for this date. Book advance rail tickets 12 weeks out and check the operator's works page the Monday before.

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.
