Millwall

Directions

Follow the A2 into London from Junction 2 of the M25. The A2 actually passes the ground. Once you go past New Cross Gate tube station on your right the ground is about a mile further on. The only awkward bit is about half way in-between New Cross Gate and the ground where the road splits into two. Keep to the right following the signs A2 City/Westminster. You will come to the ground on your right. Street parking can be found on the small estate on your left just past the ground. There are no sizeable car parks around the ground (typical British Planning!), so it is mostly street parking.

Pubs

I wouldn't recommend drinking around the ground, so best instead to grab a beer around London Bridge before moving onto the ground. There are bars at the back of the stands that serve alcohol as well as some decent food such as chicken and chips.

By Train

There are two tube stations that are about 15-20 minutes walk away from the ground. Surrey Quays & New Cross Gate, both on the East London Line.

However, it is probably best to go by rail as South Bermondsey Railway Station is only a few minutes walk from the ground and there is now a direct walkway specifically built for away fans which takes you directly to the away end and back to the station afterwards. This has made the Police's job of keeping rival supporters apart so much more manageable.
If your team brings a sizeable following, an 'away fan' football special may be laid on from London Bridge. In these instances the police are well drilled in getting away fans into the ground from the special train and safely away afterwards.
