Food and Drink
The Chieftain is on Pedder Street and is a good place have a quiet pre-match drink. The Chieftair serves some great food along with resonable beer. The Yrok Hotel will be pointed out to you by Morcambe fans and is usually filled up with Morcambe supporters that travel to every away game- the most loyal of fans.
As mentioned above the Chieftain does good food and is the recommended place to eat while sipping your pont. However, if you would rather have your meal away from the pub there is a good chip shop just outside the ground.
