Home runs don’t always come easy but you can always count on Petco Park in San Diego to deliver delicious concessions and tasty food options for Padres fans. With only a few hours to work with, mapping out what to eat at the stadium is an essential part of your game plan.

2024 Concessions

Each year, vendors bow out to make room for new food and beverage stands in the stadium. It’s always exciting to learn about what’s new. (To get an early taste of new concessions and menu items for 2025, plan on attending this year’s Padres FanFest next spring.)
