For a pre-match pint your best bet may be the 'Odd Fellows' (previously called 'Macs Bar') in Fearnley Street which is only a couple of hundred yards from the ground. The bar is situated off Cassio Road and is clearly visible when taking the route to Vicarage Road from the town centre via Market Street. The pub is only a few minutes walk away from the away turnstiles. It has a large beer garden, with a covered area for smokers and offers from its barbecue, Burgers (3) and Hot Dogs (2.50). Otherwise the ground is in walking distance of the town centre, where along the High St you will find a few pubs including a large Wetherspoons outlet called the Moon Under Water, O'Neils and a Walkabout. If you are feeling peckish then if you are walking to the ground from the town centre then there are a number of eating establishments enroute. Please note that alcohol is not sold in the away section.
Away fans are housed in the Vicarage Road Stand at one end of the ground. This stand is normally shared with home supporters (with the obligatory 'no-mans land' comprised of empty seats covered in netting in-between). Around 2,200 visiting fans can be accommodated in this area. The stand has electronic turnstiles, meaning that you have to place your ticket into a bar code reader to gain entrance. You should also then expect to be searched by the stewards on the way in. The food outlets in the ground offer the usual fayre available including; Pies (including the Chicken Balti Pie) 2.70, Pasties 2.30, Sausage Rolls 1.70, Pizza Pods 2.30 and Rollover Hot Dogs 3. There is also a Ladbrokes betting outlet available.
