BEFORE YOU SET OFF

Put your trip together

01 · Arrive

Your route into MKM Stadium

Head for the visiting-supporter section in the north-east corner of the MKM Stadium, rather than stopping at the first home turnstiles you pass. Independent ground guides identify the away section around the North and East Stand corner, but your ticket and matchday stewards should decide the precise gate and block. From Hull Paragon, walk towards Park Street and follow Londesborough Street to the Argyle Street stadium footbridge. This shortens the route through West Park on event days, although you should still allow time to walk round to the visiting entrance. If you come in from Anlaby Road or the Walton Street parking side, follow the signed paths around the stadium and keep clear of the controlled vehicle entrances. The stadium address is West Park, Hull HU3 6HU.

02 · Before the match

The Admiral of the Humber

22-minute walk to the ground. Breakfast and standard pub meals are served through the day; choose it for convenience and a dependable pre-match base rather than a distinctive Hull food speciality. CAMRA says exceptions to away admission can apply. There is no current published colours guarantee, so high-risk fixtures still need common sense.

The established supporter food pick

MKM Stadium — pulled-pork fries and buffalo-style wings

Pub food

The Admiral of the Humber

22 min walk

Good for train arrivals · meeting point

The clearest rail-arrival pub in Hull. Current CAMRA information calls it away-fan friendly, and its position beside Paragon means you can meet, eat and then follow Anlaby Road towards the ground.

Expect station · busy · away friendly

Before you go CAMRA says exceptions to away admission can apply. There is no current published colours guarantee, so high-risk fixtures still need common sense.

Food & drink: Breakfast and standard pub meals are served through the day; choose it for convenience and a dependable pre-match base rather than a distinctive Hull food speciality.

stadium pies and street food

MKM Stadium Away Concourse Food

0 min walk

Good for late arrivals · inside-ground food

One ground where eating inside is defensible. The choice goes well beyond a basic burger: pies and rotating street-food boxes are a real part of the current MKM matchday offer.

Expect concourse · cashless · street food

Before you go It is cashless and half-time queues can be heavy. Current 2026 sources do not prove that every listed street-food dish is sold at every away-section kiosk.

Food & drink: Current supporter guidance highlights chicken balti and vegan pies, chicken katsu, gyros, loaded fries, dirty dogs and cheesy chips with Hull-style chip spice.
How it works: cashless concourse kiosks

fish and chips

Kingfisher

10 min walk

Good for fish and chips · pattie

The strongest local chippy lead close to the ground. Current Hull supporters rate it for proper fish and chips, patties and value, with chip spice giving it the local touch.

Expect traditional · local · takeaway

Before you go Away-colours policy is unknown.

Food & drink: Traditional fish and chips, patties and beef-dripping chips are the current supporter recommendations; add chip spice if you want the Hull version.
How it works: traditional takeaway

independent street food

Trinity Market Food Hall

25 min walk

Good for mixed groups · street food

The best city-centre food-hall option for a group. It keeps everyone together while offering proper independent choices rather than sending an away party around different chains.

Expect food hall · independent · group friendly

Before you go Individual traders also keep shorter hours.

Food & drink: Current traders cover Greek, Indian, East Asian, burritos, burgers, coffee and desserts, making it the best mixed-group choice when everyone wants something different.
How it works: indoor food hall

burgers and fried chicken

Dope Burger - Trinity Market

25 min walk

Good for burger · fried chicken

A straightforward independent choice inside Trinity Market: quick burgers and fried chicken, with chip-spice fries giving the order a recognisably Hull touch.

Expect street food · quick · independent

Before you go Do not substitute the less convenient Witham branch automatically.

Food & drink: Burgers, fried chicken, hot dogs and fries are current staples; the menu includes fries with Hull chip spice.

fish, chips and Hull patties

Bob Carver's - Chapel Street

28 min walk

Good for Hull pattie · fish and chips

The local-speciality stop. Bob Carver's gives you the Hull pattie and chip-spice combination without needing to gamble on stadium stock, and it remains open on Sundays.

Expect traditional · local · city centre

Before you go Football colours are not covered by a published venue policy.

Food & drink: The Hull pattie is the reason to choose it: seasoned mashed potato formed into a patty and fried, ideally with chips and chip spice; haddock is also available.
How it works: traditional city-centre takeaway/cafe

breakfast and brunch

Nibble @ The Dock

35 min walk

Good for overnight stay · breakfast

A strong breakfast or brunch for supporters staying around the Marina. It is not on the direct station-to-ground line, but it makes sense if the waterfront is your overnight base.

Expect brunch · marina · independent

Before you go Current posts show daytime trading around 09:00–15:00 and occasional closure for refurbishment. Check the day's opening before relying on it.

Food & drink: Breakfasts, brunch dishes, sandwiches and coffee are the main draw; a current menu includes full breakfasts and breakfast sandwiches.
How it works: independent cafe

tapas

Ambiente Tapas Hull

35 min walk

Good for proper meal · families

The proper-meal option for a Marina stay. It works better for families and groups who want to sit down together than for supporters chasing a fast pint and pie near the ground.

Expect sit down · marina · group friendly

Before you go It is open daily, but this is not a football venue and no away-colours policy was found. Booking is sensible around busy weekend fixtures.

Food & drink: A broad tapas menu with meat, fish, vegetarian and vegan sharing plates; group bookings and children's options make it practical for mixed parties.
How it works: sit-down restaurant

WHERE TO STAY

Where should you stay?

Choose a base for the football and the rest of your visit.

Where to stay

Stay around Hull Paragon, Ferensway or Park Street if you want the easiest balance of football and an evening in town. You can walk to the MKM Stadium from the interchange and return without depending on taxis or a late bus. Park Hotel & Apartments on Park Street is one established central option. If you want restaurants and pubs after the game, Hull Old Town and the Fruit Market around Humber Street are more appealing than booking beside West Park. You will have a longer walk back from the ground, but far more choice once you arrive. For a quick stadium-first visit, a central hotel close to the station is still more useful than a room chosen purely because it is west of the city. If you are driving, check your hotel’s parking conditions and overnight price separately from the matchday stadium car parks.

MKM Stadium ↗

For most supporters, central Hull is the better overnight base. Park Street/Ferensway is the strongest football-first compromise: it keeps the station and city centre close while putting you on the normal matchday walking route towards the stadium. If the evening after the match matters more than the shortest walk, move east/south-east towards the Old Town and marina.

For the evening

Old Town, the marina and Fruit Market are the strongest evening cluster for a visitor who wants pubs, food and drinks after the match. Visit Hull's own material highlights the historic Old Town pub circuit and the newer bars/eating places around Humber Street and the marina.

For the train

Hull Paragon Interchange is the city's main rail and bus hub. Staying around Ferensway/Park Street is particularly practical because the station is close and the stadium is a roughly 20-minute matchday walk from the interchange.

Hotels to compare

Holiday Inn Express Hull City Centre by IHGFerensway / St Stephen's / Hull Paragon InterchangeAll-round choice
Immediately useful for rail travellers because Hull Paragon Interchange is next door/very close.
Bear in mind: It is not the closest practical hotel to the ground; Park Hotel & Apartments cuts the walk.
Hotel details checked 2026-09-29
More about this choice
The normal stadium walk starts from the interchange area, so it avoids an awkward post-arrival transfer.
Central enough for food and drinks, while not paying the consistent premium seen at the marina hotel in the sample.
Booking.com coverage was verified and recent Booking.com review scores were strong.
Breakfast is normally included, which improves the practical value for a one-night football stay.
It is west of the Old Town/marina nightlife core, so a supporter prioritising late bars and waterfront restaurants has better-located options.
Recent reviews are broadly positive but include recurring comments that the cooked breakfast can be inconsistent and occasional comments about firm/lumpy beds or noise.
Parking is chargeable.

Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHGHull Marina / edge of Old Town and Fruit MarketFor the evening

Full-service hotel with restaurant/bar and on-site parking.
