Royal question IV - crystal palace questions

Hi! Just a couple of questions for the UK residents who have been to previous RQS at Crystal Palace….

I’m flying in tomorrow with my son for the show on Sunday looking forward to it a lot . I am English but I haven’t lived in the UK for a long long long time and I’ve never been to Crystal Palace in my life so sorry for the basic questions :)

I noticed the venue opens at 16:00 and Bell time is 17:30, is there a bar or anything in the arena? Looks like it’s a Leisure Centre so imagine there isn’t… but wondering if I take him refreshments in….

We are staying in central London and I’m not sure yet if we will take the train to Pengue West or take an Uber - but should we end up arriving early - any recommended pub in the area that’s ok to hunker down in that’ll be fine with an 8yo? Or a regular wrestling haunt that people go to before the re pro shows there that will have a good vibe? I’m thinking to take him to some sites or whatever in the morning but wanna make sure we are south at the right time as it seems like a bit of a shit to get to. , so just trying to plan it.

Cheers.

In exchange any questions about Prague or Tokyo I’m happy to help 😅😅.
