Yes, we have an airport, but no international flights. Flights are to and from Rome. The nearest international airports are Milan (Linate is nearer than Malpensa) and Bologna.
A lively pub with a friendly atmosphere is The Old Curiosity Pub, in Via delle Fonderie (near the Parco Ducale), it is closed on Mondays.
Another popular spot, but focused on wine instead of beer, is Enoteca Ombre Rosse, in Vicolo Giandemaria, downtown.
About restaurants, check the VT pages on Parma. Cocchi is certainly the one I prefer, but downtown there are also the Osteria del Gesso, I Du' Brase', and the Osteria dei Corrieri. If you search the web you will certainly find details about them.

I see you are coming from Spain.

Iberia flies into the Bologna airport. Also Ryanair from Barcelona (I know its not that close) to Milan Bergamo.

If you fly into Milan it is about 2.5 hours travel time by train to Parma, the same is you fly in to Florence.
