Blues Dining - Chelsea Hospitality at Stamford Bridge
Pre-match casual dining with inclusive bar and West Lower seats
Blues Dining is Chelsea's pre-match dining experience, held in the 55 Restaurant - also run as the Mears Suite or Copthorne Lounge - on Level 1 of the Stamford Bridge Hotel, entered through the hotel's main entrance rather than the turnstiles. Three courses are served pre-match, with a complimentary bar of beer, wine and soft drinks before and after the game. Match seats are in the West Lower tier at Block WL1, opposite the penalty box. For early kick-offs the format becomes brunch.

How Blues Dining compares
Blues Dining and Rose & Ball sit at a similar level and the honest difference is atmosphere rather than value: Blues Dining is a seated three-course meal in a hotel restaurant, Rose & Ball is bowl food in a lively lounge with a legend visit. Blues Dining has the better seat of the two, in West Lower at Block WL1. Museum Matchday above them both is where the experience rather than the meal becomes the point.
