Everton fans select ‘The Prince Rupert’ as name for New Pub on Village Street

Evertonians have spoken – ‘The Prince Rupert’ will be the name of the newly christened fan-named pub on Village Street at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

More than 6,000 supporters cast their votes in an online poll to help name this exciting new addition to the lively, fan-centric area on Level 3 of the West Stand.

Exclusively open to supporters with a membership or matchday access to Village Street, The Prince Rupert will offer a warm, social atmosphere deeply rooted in the Club’s heritage.

The name emerged from a fan-curated shortlist, inspired by local history, football tradition, and Everton’s proud legacy. The winning choice pays homage to the historic lock-up depicted on Everton’s crest—named after a 17th-century figure—beautifully blending tradition and community pride into the heart of the matchday experience.

The Prince Rupert joins three other uniquely themed bars on Village Street:

  • The Queen’s Head – a tribute to the pub where Everton Football Club was founded
  • Dixie’s Sports Bar – a dynamic venue broadcasting live sports from around the globe
  • Kendall’s Social – a vibrant space for live music, entertainment, and pre/post-match gatherings

The Southall Arms24.9%
Toffee Tavern19.5%
Eddie Cavanagh’s13.0%
The Royle Oak12.9%
