| 1. Author: JohnnyLatics Date: Sat 28th Feb 2026. 20:36 When I`m in Dunfermline pre- match I tend to stick to the high street area pubs and wander up towards EEP. Any pubs recommended off that street and onwards , this time I`m staying near St Margaret rail station so after checking in at 2pm I`m on my way.. Cheers! I blame Andy Rhodes for this! Reply |
| 2. Author: jake89 Date: Sat 28th Feb 2026. 21:24 Very few pubs between Dunfermline QM and East End. The Lizzie is the only one that comes to mind. There might be a bar in the house hotel off Halbeath Road. Reply |
| 3. Author: JohnnyLatics Date: Sat 28th Feb 2026. 22:02 jake89, Sat 28 Feb 21:24 Aye I know of the Lizzie, I`ll be munching on my late breakfast (liquid .. maybe solids?!) there till check in. Looking for more traditional Pars gathering pubs. It doesn`t need to be near the stadium, I`ll have my hiking boots and flask on me! (hic) I blame Andy Rhodes for this! Reply |
| 4. Author: Bletchley_Par Date: Sat 28th Feb 2026. 23:05 I`d recommend the Park Tavern, or Peg Allan`s or the Brig Tavern. Easy to find, if you can reach 88mph in a certain car. Failing that The Commercial has a fine selection of cask ales and decent grub. Alas we like many towns have lost many of our best pubs, the best pub currently in town is a speakeasy being run out of a recently shut establishment. ![]() Reply |

| 6. Author: BouncyPar Date: Sun 1st Mar 2026. 07:07 The old inn, and the creepy wee are just off the High Street. Both decent pubs, the creepy wee is a bit gimmicky but better than most others. The old inn has a blue plaque outside as the location DAFC was formed in. The East Port is also good. Going by what it was like for the Hibs game, you`d have more luck with a carry-out on a park bench tho. Pubs were crammed from opening, and folk struggling to get near the bar. Reply |

| 8. Author: JohnnyLatics Date: Sun 1st Mar 2026. 10:30 Many thanks, I`ll be taking those in. Been in the Creepy, it`s.. just OK I suppose, Often walked past the Old Inn (I often go to the Abbey and park area when there to take a few photos) but never been in, was aware of the history so I`ll definitely cross the doorway this time. Cheers! I blame Andy Rhodes for this! Reply |

| 10. Author: AdamAntsParsStripe Date: Sun 1st Mar 2026. 14:44 I usually go to The Monarch before home games. Only downside is no SKY TV but good jukebox and pool table. Zwei Pints Bier und ein Päckchen Chips bitte ![]() Reply |

| 14. Author: twin par Date: Sun 1st Mar 2026. 20:15 Be aware.Pubs will be heaving.Rugby on Saturday afternoon, so a mix of football and rugby fans. Reply |
| 15. Author: JohnnyLatics Date: Sun 1st Mar 2026. 20:23 Thanks for the tip. Think it`s going to be a case of first pub with room to sit and fairly easy to get served, I`m staying. I`ve bookmarked all your suggestions, many thanks and hopefully will be ready for the scramble after 2:30pm on Saturday. Cheers! I blame Andy Rhodes for this! Reply |
| 16. Author: gopars Date: Tue 3rd Mar 2026. 12:58 If you`re going to QM station walk up towards the hospital and walk along Robertson Rd until you meet Townhill Road. Walk up the hill and you have the Yeoman pub, good for a couple of beers and then easy walk down the hill to East End. Cut me do I not bleed black and white. Reply |
| 17. Author: JohnnyLatics Date: Tue 3rd Mar 2026. 16:37 gopars, Tue 3 Mar 12:58 Noted, many thanks! What time will Charlie D`s be opening? Just thinking as it`s a night game but on a Saturday, could it be open from the afternoon? Also, if venturing into town after the game, would wearing my Pars scarf be an issue getting into bars, again with it being a Saturday night, but also the no colours rule I`ve seen in a few places in Edinburgh, Glasgow etc. Cheers! I blame Andy Rhodes for this! Reply |
| 18. Author: Playup_Pompey Date: Tue 3rd Mar 2026. 17:00 likley open at lunchtime as will have Rugby etc on TV mid afternoon. No issues with colours in bars in town. Reply |
