Stranraer Football Social Club
9-15, North Strand
St
Stranraer
(01776) 704121
|
Home of the diehard
Stranraer FC fan. If cheap beer is your thing, then this could be
the place for you. The Social club used to be small and smokey,
but recent renovations have seen it become a great place for a pre-match
pint. Whatever team you support you will be made welcome. Upstairs in the Social Club
there is a games room with a snooker and pool table. The new extension to the Social Club
has resulted in their being an excellent Function room at the back of the Club. At the weekends
there is a busy disco.
The bar is a 15 minute
walk to Stair Park. Quite close to a couple of restaurants downtown.
Plenty of taxis available close by.
