The groom is also a SF member thus the trip to Northhampton.

Friendly piece of advice: if the groom is an Arsenal fan, do not go to Stoke. The stadium is a fortress, with hardly any parking for away fans and a reputation for hooliganism. If he's a Stoke fan, then you'll be alright though.

That's where Arsenal is playing when we go. Personally I'm sitting in the stoke section (Also a blues fan, gunners can go to hell )

A couple of serious recommendations

- Have Martinis at Dukes hotel (Fridays and Saturdays get busy - unless you know Alessandro well you should turn up early, or stay at the hotel and reserve a table)
- Trumper's for a shave, as others have recommended
- Whisky at Albannach
- Dinner at any of The Square, Gavroche, or the Glasshouse for excellent French cuisine; at Locanda Locatelli for the best Italian; at Wilton's (rather than Rules) for game and seafood. Hakkasan, Shumi and Sumosan also great
- See if you could get your hotel concierge to get you into Shoreditch House / Soho House or to get you guest-listed at Mahiki (large groups of men struggle)

3 of us will be sitting on the stoke side as we have no allegiance to any team, 2 of them are Arsenal fans and will want to sit on the Arsenal side. We will be taking the train in to the stadium. Will we have difficulties with enter the stadium in the same entrance if we are sitting in different sections?

There is not much fan separation at sporting events in North America.

Based on that input I made a valid recommendation that you go to Newquay for this bachelor party.

I mean hey, I could have recommended Brighton.

LOL this is the funniest thread ive read in awhile, you guys should try Barcode in Soho, tough guys are welcome:

"Barcode pulls in a fun loving blend of muscle boys, Daddies, Bears and club kids. The music nights every week differ from classic disco and soul to funky house and tribal"
