Eating out:

Around a five minute walk from the ground is the Railway View which does two meals for £5.00 and serves good food, you can also park your car here for the duration of the match.
Mine's a pint:
The nearest pub is called the Railway Vue on Station Road. It is about a five to ten minute walk away. From the entrance of the ground turn right and head along Bridge Road. Turn left at the next set of traffic lights and then left again into Station Road. The pub is down on the left and there is plenty of street parking in this area.

Travel information
Car:
Histon is situated just north of Cambridge. The ground is located on the outskirts of the nearby village of Impington. Leave the M11 and take the A14 towards Newmarket. At Junction 32 take the B1049 towards Histon. You will pass a Holiday Inn on your right and then the road goes over an old railway line. The entrance to the ground is just down on the right, just before the pedestrian crossing. If you start driving past houses then you have gone too far.
Train:
There is no longer a railway station in Histon. The nearest station is in Cambridge, around three miles away, so you would therefore be best to get a taxi from the train station to the ground.

Adults £13.00
Concessions £7.00
