As the bars are connected with the football club, an array of Southend United tops and programmes can be found adorning the walls. If you want food, it's the usual football fayre of burgers, pies and chocolates that can be bought from the tea bars around the ground. The Far Post bar can only be accessed by ticketholders as you have to go through the turnstiles to get to it, but the Shrimpers bar can be accessed by anybody and welcomes away fans.
