Lord's Cricket Ground (London) Reviews
Newest Review: ... fairly pain free. Each match was a completely different atmosphere but all were enjoyable. For the Scotland game I was sat in one of the main stands adjacent to the members stand. I met with some Scot's on a business holiday who made the day very welcoming and enjoyable. I recall that lunches were shared amongst the fans of both sides and food was traded in a light hearted friendly way - a pork pie for a packet of crisps etc. At one point when Scotland were fielding towards the end of the match one of the Scottish spectators kindly offered one of the boundary Scottish players a pint which went down well when he accepted. For the second ga... more

I've been to Lord's on three occasions over the last four years. The first was to watch a Twenty twenty game between Scotland and Middlesex. It was a mid week game and the crowd was fairly sparse. The second was the final match between Hampshire and Sussex in the FP trophy. It was absolutely packed. On the third occasion I was lucky enough to get hospitality in one of the boxes above the main stands to watch England against Sri Lanka. I found the ground easy to find provided you travel by train and then use the underground. So for travel considerations I would rate this ground good. I travelled by car to a station in North London and then used the train to get ... Read the complete review

I have been to Lords twice and it is a great experience that every England cricket fan should get to do at some point in their life.

The seats aren't the most comfortable to sit on all day which is a bit annoying considering how much you spend to get through the gate for an international game. There is however a definite feel about the place, you get there and walk round the outside of the stands and see all the stats about the various records ... Read the complete review

My boyfriend took me to the Home of cricket (otherwise known as Lords) over the bank holiday weekend to watch England vs Bangladesh. It was a great day out! He got two ticket for £50 via a discount website. I am told that ticket prices tend to be a lot more for other test match matches, going as high as £65 for an Ashes match. Very expensive for a day of cricket if you ask me. We arrived at the ground before the start of play, at about 10am. You're allowed to take in four pints of lager or cider or a bottle of wine each. I decided to take in some wine. You're also able to take food in with you, which i did too. This helped to keep the cost of the ... Read the complete review
