Away fan guide: Glanford Park

Last updated : 28 November 2008 By Matt Blanchard

When arriving at the ground, please note that you can no longer park on the ring road surrounding the ground and you will now have to use either the car park across the road at the retail park, or the official car-park which costs £2.

Food and Drink
There are plenty of places around the ground that are accessible by foot once parked to purchase food. The new retail park is thriving with places to eat and drink, KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonalds are the three fast food outlets on site. There is also a Tesco's across the road with a cafe.

The Old Farmhouse and the Berkely, all within 5 minutes of the ground also do food.

They also sell food in the ground - bacon butties, burgers, pies etc

There are several pubs around the ground. The farmhouse serves food and drink as to does the Berkely [Pints at the Berkely are just over £1.30 for a Sam Smiths ale.] down the road from the ground. Further into town, the Honest Lawyer [pictured] and the Bluebell [Wetherspoon beer] are popular with away fans. Depending on the match, all these pubs may be closed. The Iron Bar [pictured] is strictly home fans only.
