From football ground guide

At the ground itself next to the away turnstiles is the entrance to Howards, which is a small bar for away supporters only. Opening two hours before kick off, you need to show your away ticket to gain entrance. Outside the North East corner of the stadium, there is a small fan zone, which has live music and a number of food and drink outlets, some of which serve alcohol. Although primarily for home fans, some visiting supporters have been using the facility too.

Otherwise, there is the Drysalters pub which is about a ten minute walk away from the ground. On my last visit, it had a good mix of home and away supporters, had real ale, plus large screens showing televised football. To find this pub; with the Old Peacock pub behind you, turn left and follow the road down to the very end. Pass the entrances to a number of car parks and go under a railway bridge. At the end of the road, turn left along the dual carriageway and the pub is a short way down 'tucked in' on the left. Otherwise, alcohol is served within the ground in the form of draught Fosters Lager, John Smith's Bitter and Strongbow Cider (all £4 a pint), Strongbow Dark Fruit Cider (£4.50), plus small bottles of red and white wine (£4).

Just a few doors down from the Old Peacock pub (which is behind the South Stand and is not recommended for away supporters) is the Graveleys chippy, which does brisk business on matchdays. There is also a McDonalds outlet situated across the road from the East Stand.
