For those parking at Ocean Village and wanting food there is a brilliant pub by the cinema. Good food, reasonable prices and you won't get any trouble from the home fans in there. Also there is a Tescos Express in Ocean Village (with a cash point machine if you need it) for those who want to eat outside of the pub.
Here is the website with some directions

When I worked in Ocean Village, parking was free after 6, but make sure you park in the designated bays (either by the cinema, the water front or some spaces in the office complex), I would however advise to stay away from the multi storey....... there has been a lot of breakins recently within the multi storey.
If you get there early then it is a 10 / 15 minute walk into town or you can take the short bus journey. If you have a car load it might be worth paying the £4 to get a cab into town rather than worry about buses and walking (ask to be dropped off by HSBC at the top end of East Street). There are loads of places to eat and drink in town, and you only have a short walk back to the ground (you do not need to go via Ocean Village from town).
