its near the stadium and sells beer. Cant think of anything else good to say. litterally nothing great about it.
before matches its too small to get in, totally rammed. After matches the police usually funnel everyone into wembley park station, which if you avoid you can get to the pub through side streets and its very easy to get served.

what can be said about this pub,umm stay away at all costs,not very inviting even after a refurb,still an old mans's pub with red faced drinkers coughing and giving you daggers everytime you come in.beer ok but very small inside and have some crappy karaoke nights with cover singers! Oh one regular wanted to see if my wife wanted to go outside with him! avoid!

I like the place. But mainly through happy associations: I've had some good times there because of the company I'd been keeping. But speaking objectively, RogerB's comments are very much on the money. It's a bland, formulaic pub.

Let�s face it, you don�t come to Wembley specifically to drink. Even a pub crawl will find nothing more than the most formulaic and functional pubs. The Crock of Gold is hardly the most original or fascinating of establishments and definitely falls into the formulaic category. It is essentially a contrived Irish sports bar with a dart board at the rear, the usual run of plasma / big screens for football / racing and a couple of fruit / quiz machines. The d�cor is pub by numbers with nothing to attract the attention and it all feels a bit too open lacking any intimacy, even though the pub is quite small. The one thing that it does have in its favour (in common with its near neighbour the Torch) is direction, i.e. away from the Wembley Stadium / arena complex and that means that prior to a gig / football / Holiday on Ice you can avoid the majority of the crowds. This is the sort of place that will be refurbished and renamed at least a dozen times before it eventually becomes a newsagents. OK to kill an hour but nothing life changing.
