BEFORE YOU SET OFF

Put your trip together

01 · Arrive

Your route into Copperjax Community Stadium

Use the away entrance shown on your ticket, not the nearest home turnstiles. Bromley has moved visiting allocations during recent building work: supporters have used both the East Terrace and Glyn Beverly Stand. The stadium is zoned, and you cannot move into another stand after entering. From Bromley South, walk via Masons Hill and Hayes Lane to the ground entrance. Stewards can direct you to the visitor access, which may be around the far side of the stadium complex. Leave time for that extra walk and any ticket checks. For supporters with reduced mobility, request the precise gate and the condition of its approach in advance.

02 · Before the match

Bricklayers Arms

15-minute walk to the ground. The strongest all-round away pub: directly on the walk from Bromley South, repeatedly recommended to visiting fans and now under new management with a proper burger-and-chicken menu. Management changed in August 2026, so older beer and service reviews are stale. No reliable current venue-specific policy on away colours was found.

Good for train arrivals · large groups

Not the most distinctive stop, but one of the most practical: it is at Bromley South and visiting-club guidance explicitly says away fans are welcome. It suits a group assembling before moving down Masons Hill.

Expect station meet · large pub · budget food

Before you go Under-18s are only allowed until 20:00. No current football-colours restriction was found; use fixture-specific police or club advice if issued.

Food & drink: Breakfast from 8am and the standard full pub menu; useful for large groups prioritising speed, price and a clear meeting point.
How it works: large town-centre pub

Good for proper meal · groups

More restaurant-with-bar than classic football boozer, but that is its strength: plenty of seating, live sport and a proper Indian/Chinese menu on the same corridor as the ground. Away guides repeatedly say visitors are welcome.

Expect food led · large seating area · sports screens

Before you go Tuesday-Thursday the kitchen closes 14:30–16:30, relevant to midweek travel. No venue-specific away-colours rule is published.

Food & drink: A full Indian and Chinese menu, including halal meat; a better choice than a snack stop when the group wants a proper meal.
How it works: bar and sit-down restaurant

Broomfields Bar & Kitchen

0 min walkCheck matchday admissionCheck colours policyFood served

Good for food at the ground · pre-match pint only when confirmed

The useful ground-side option, but not one to promise. Bromley's generic zoning sends East Stand drinkers here before or after the match, while visiting-club advice in 2026 has alternated between admitting and refusing away supporters.

Expect stadium bar · sports screens · fixture-dependent access

Before you go Check your own fixture guide: Swindon advice in February 2026 said no away fans; Cambridge supporter information in August said Broomfields was available pre-match.

Food & drink: Club-published menu includes burgers, pizza, hot dog and fries, chicken and chips, toasties, nachos, cheesy chips and loaded fries.

WHERE TO STAY

Where should you stay?

Compare the ground, station and town-centre hotel options for your trip.

Where to stay

Stay near Bromley South station or the High Street if you want to make a weekend of the match. It leaves you within a walk or short bus journey of Hayes Lane, and it is much more useful for food, pubs and the return train than a room beside the residential stadium approach. The Bromley South and St Mark’s Square area is especially straightforward if you are arriving by train or driving to a town-centre car park. Hotels farther out around Hayes can suit a quieter or cheaper stay, but involve a less direct rail route and another journey for evening food. Check hotel and parking availability for your actual fixture.

Bromley South station services and category A step-free access ↗

For most visiting supporters, central Bromley is the sensible base: it keeps the match journey short while giving you Bromley South rail, pubs, restaurants and late-evening options. Staying farther north or east can save money or add parking, but usually weakens the post-match convenience.

For the evening

The useful evening cluster is Bromley town centre, especially the High Street/Market Square/Bromley South corridor. The borough retail and leisure study describes Bromley as having a mix of pubs, bars, clubs, restaurants and cultural venues; staying centrally avoids needing another journey after the match.

For the train

Bromley South is the main practical rail base for football trips. Current transport guides put Hayes Lane at roughly a 15-minute walk from the station, and TfL routes 119/146/314 serve the Hayes Road/Hayes Lane corridor for a short bus hop.
