Home runs don’t always come easy but you can always count on Petco Park to deliver delicious concessions and tasty food options for Padres fans. With only a few hours to work with, knowing what to eat is an essential part of your game plan.
Fans at Petco Park can access food and drink info through the MLB Ballpark App on their cellphone and use it to purchase meals, snacks, drinks and other items.
For increased safety, there will be no vendors walking the aisles selling beer, peanuts, popcorn, cotton candy, ice cream and other treats.
What follows is a guide to the best peanuts, Cracker Jacks and fish tacos at San Diego’s famous ballpark to help you map out your in-game eating. For places to eat outside the stadium, view our guide to restaurants near Petco Park. Here’s our gluten-free guide.
