There is a nice pub opposite the Arena called Table Table but it does get pretty packed. There's also Don Valley Centertainment directly opposite with loads of restaurants - Chiquitos, Frankie & Bennys, nandos, Bella Italia, Old Orleans etc....

You can park there usually but they have big signs saying no Arena parking when events are on.
There are usually a couple of pubs locally, like the Carbrook inn, who offer cheap parking. Other than that i think Meadowhall would be nearest and free parking.

The best place to park if you're going to the Sheffield Arena is to park on the side roads directly behind the Arena. Parking is free on most of these roads but make sure there aren't any parking restrictions before you leave your car. You can park in the car park at the Arena but it costs about £5 (not sure of exact price) but you'll find getting out after the concert a nightmare. The side roads are best.

There are loads of places to eat opposite to the Arena. Look for 2 for 1 vouchers (there's lots of links on this site) and take some with you.
