Title: Parking for Orient
Post by: Scooter on October 05, 2025, 09:13:55 am: It’s my first trip to Orient at the weekend. Anyone got any good parking tips. I usually park at Stanmore for London games but as this is just off the M11 I’m tempted to drive all the way in

Book in advance before they get taken.

You won't find street parking but yourparkingspace or justpark has reasonably priced spaces available.

Too expensive. It’s me and my 15 year old lad so I have to pay for everything. Cheaper to drive.

Good value, no parking to pay for plus you can have a snooze if you want to.

I was chatting to Paul M about this. It’s still cheaper for me to drive.Also my wife works nights so I can get home quicker if I drive

If you've got one or more coming with you, as here, it's almost always cheaper to drive.

No stops at all between Stratford and Leyton, IDM.

We'll be on the tube on Saturday.
