Around the town

Weymouth, of course, is a famous sea-side town and has many places to eat and drink, and whilst the ground is not in the middle of the town there are numerous cab companies at reasonable price that can get you to the ground from the town.

You will also find two Weatherspoon’s (one each end of the main Shopping Street), Slug and Lettuce as well as some chain restaurants and fast food along St Thomas Street, St Mary Street and the sea front.

We look forwards to seeing as many Beavers as possible to cheer to team on in Weymouth.
