    Hi. I am a season TH and attend most of the games, but we usually eat at the stadium or Five Guys. Which of the Portuguese places would you recommend for Sunday? Want to get there around 10:45, watch some EPL, leave the car there and walk to RBA. Will be with kids, so that's important. And want to go to a place that will definitely have EPL games (preferably multiple TV's)

    We are coming up from Maryland for the game this weekend. We are staying 1.7 m from the stadium at a hotel in Newark. We have a 3 year old. Where should we eat/hang out pre match?

    (i'm not afraid of being around our supporters with the three year old. He has been to a few trips to RFK with the south ward)

    I always prefer El Pastor simply because of the nice outdoor patio and cheap drafts, and people bring their kids all the time. The food has taken a serious hit as its grown in popularity though, they used to make each order fresh on the grill but now they keep everything in catering trays and the food often gets cold.

    MMM Bellos is a great beer bar right next to Newark Penn. Manny and John run a great place there. Over 100 different beers from all over the world and some of the best pub fare I've ever had (make sure to ask for the specials). Can get crowded sometimes, but if you get there early you can get a table to sit down and eat. There is also a separate up stairs area where one of the supporters groups gathers.

    Fernandez is my favorite rodizio place in the ironbound. Little closer to the stadium. Great food. Much bigger place with a big bar with lots of flat screens and a separate dining section as well.

    I love beer. That sounds like a winner right there.

    Manny (the Owner) is Portuguese. Ask him if he has any Portuguese beers in stock. If not, he almost always has something new he can recommend.

    I'll second that on Bellos. We have been taking the train the last few times. Love it there. Great beer and food. Great prices too. Then the bus to game, can't beat it. My new favorite place.
