The short version

Make a little room around the game.

  • The Phillie Phanatic, baseball's greatest mascot, has an entire ATV and chaos routine — and Ashburn Alley behind center field is a food-and-history strip.
  • Start with these 18 food notes rather than a generic concession list.
  • Use the arrival options below as a starting point, then check the club and operator on game day.
