BEFORE YOU SET OFF

Put your trip together

01 · Arrive

Your route into Weston Homes Stadium

For most league fixtures, visiting supporters enter the away allocation in the Kings Power Solutions Stand. Follow the away-supporter signs and the turnstile information printed on your ticket rather than heading to a home entrance. From Peterborough station or the city centre, cross Town Bridge and approach the ground from London Road. From Pleasure Fair Meadow or Railworld, follow the marked pedestrian route towards the stadium, then continue round to your allocated entrance. Large away followings may also receive seats in the GH Display Stand. Peterborough has confirmed that this arrangement changes with demand, so your fixture ticket is the final guide to the correct turnstiles.

02 · Before the match

The Shed Taproom & Deli

Italian deli sandwiches with prosciutto or pastrami, pizzas, breakfast rosetta rolls, sharing platters. The published menu shows Saturday sandwiches from 11am and breakfast to noon; check service and matchday queues, not just the bar’s general hours.

Pan Asian

East Restaurant (aboard Charters)

Good for pre booked lunch · groups

One of the more distinctive proper meals on this away day: Pan-Asian cooking upstairs on the moored Dutch barge. Ideal for a planned lunch before the short walk to the away entrance.

Expect riverside · sit down · Pan Asian

Before you go Lunch runs noon–2.30pm Monday–Saturday, and bookings may be needed. This is not the same as grabbing food downstairs in Charters.

Food & drink: Two-course Pan-Asian lunch including panang beef, crispy chicken and coconut rice or tofu; separate Sunday lunch.

fish and chips

Fletton Fish & Chips

Good for fish and chips · family groups

A genuine chippy rather than another groundside chain. Useful for supporters coming through Fletton who want cod and chips or a sharing box before heading to the ground.

Expect chip shop · quick service · Fletton

Before you go Saturday lunch service ends at 2pm and reopens at 4.30pm, so order early for a 3pm kick-off; Sunday is evening-only in the listed hours.

Food & drink: Cod and chips, battered sausage, scallops and fish-and-chip family boxes.
How it works: takeaway

Indian gastropub

Tap & Tandoor Peterborough

Good for sit down meal · families

For a full pre-match meal with craft beer, the Indian gastropub near Queensgate is a better choice than rushing to a concession. Naan sliders and mixed grills suit groups sharing food.

Expect Indian food · city centre · live sport

Before you go Opens at noon every day; the operator recommends booking around live sport. Do not confuse ordinary walk-in dining with its separately pre-booked Sunday roast.

Food & drink: Chicken tikka naan sliders, aloo tikki chaat, mixed grill, curries and masala chips.

Thai

The Brewery Tap (Thai kitchen)

Good for sit down meal · overnight stay

An independent brewpub and Thai kitchen that works especially well if you are arriving early by train or staying overnight. Make time for a proper meal before walking to Town Bridge.

Expect brewpub · Thai food · station area

Before you go Food is served from noon until 10.30pm on Saturdays; weekday kitchen takes a 2.30–5pm break. Away-colours admission is not expressly published.

Food & drink: Cooked-to-order Thai food and Oakham Ales in converted labour exchange.

pizza

Charters Riverside Pizza Kitchen

5 min walk

Good for quick meal · groups

If you want a quick bite alongside the pre-match pint, Charters has a separate riverside pizza operation on weekends. More practical for casual groups than reserving a restaurant upstairs.

Expect riverside · pizza · casual

Before you go Advertised Friday evenings and Saturday/Sunday from noon, but the operator says service is weather-dependent. Do not rely on it midweek.

Food & drink: Fresh pizzas served by the Riverside Pizza Kitchen at the riverside pub garden.

stadium food

Posh Kitchen – away concourse concessions

0 min walk

Good for last minute food · families

The simplest choice if you arrive close to kick-off is a pie or Posh Dog from the visiting-section kiosk. The club has refreshed its catering and publishes an actual price list.

Expect stadium concourse · fast service · cashless

Before you go The ground is cashless; not every kiosk has alcohol. A January 2026 visiting fan reported poor food and restricted early service, so check the opening of your own stand.

Food & drink: Posh Dog, steak-and-ale pie, chicken Balti pie, vegan pie and sausage roll; official published items £5 each.

Good for late arrivals · away groups

A useful groundside food stop without needing to cross into the mixed main-stand fan area. Peterborough’s current guide confirms separate catering provision for away supporters.

Expect away fanzone · stadium · cashless

Before you go Check your fixture’s segregation and opening time. The club’s published stadium-wide pie menu does not guarantee every item at every away-zone counter.

WHERE TO STAY

Where should you stay?

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

Where to stay

Stay around Peterborough railway station, Rivergate or Cathedral Square if you want to make a night of the football. These areas keep the mainline station, city-centre pubs and restaurants within walking distance, while the ground is an easy walk across Town Bridge. The Rivergate end of the centre is particularly handy if getting to the stadium matters most. A hotel closer to Queensgate or the railway station is a better fit for an early train the following morning. There is little need to stay beside London Road unless you prioritise the shortest possible walk to the match. Compare live room prices on your exact fixture date rather than assuming a standard Saturday rate.

Getting Around Peterborough ↗

For most supporters, base yourself in the compact city-centre belt between Wentworth Street, Westgate, Cathedral Square and Broadway. It keeps the station, pre/post-match food and drink, and the ground within walking range. The exception is anyone whose overriding priority is stepping out of the hotel almost straight into the stadium: The Queensgate Hotel is effectively beside the ground, but its current quality and parking-feedback profile is weaker than the better central choices.

For the evening

The better evening base is north of the river in the city centre. Westgate and Cathedral Square give a useful food-and-drink cluster, while Broadway is the clearest late-evening strip; local tourism material describes O'Neill's as sitting at the centre of Peterborough's Broadway nightlife area.

For the train

Peterborough station sits on the western side of the centre. The venue's own events information describes the stadium as about a 10-minute walk from the station; in practice pace and the Town Bridge/road crossings can make a little longer sensible to allow. Park Inn and The Bull are convenient for both station and stadium without requiring a taxi.
