Phillies unveil new food, drink experiences for 2026 season at Citizens Bank Park

Posted

In under a week, fans from across the Delaware Valley will once again begin the annual pilgrimage to Citizens Bank Park. As the countdown continues, the Philadelphia Phillies are making sure fans have more than just baseball to look forward to in 2026.

In partnership with Aramark Sports + Entertainment, the club’s food and beverage partner, the Phillies announced some new additions to Citizens Bank Park, introducing new locations, expanded local partnerships, player-inspired dishes, and upgraded grab-and-go options.

From over-the-top desserts to energy drink-themed decks in left field, there is something new to try for everyone at Citizens Bank Park this season.

New locations at CBP

The biggest additions come in the form of new and enhanced destinations across the ballpark.

One of the headline features is the debut of Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers at Section 126. Freddy’s will feature their signature steakburgers and fresh custard. Freddy’s will share a location with an expansion site for Chickie’s & Pete’s, giving fans on the concourse level a second location to get their highly-touted crabfries.

Out in left field, the Phillies are introducing the GHOST Energy Deck, a high-energy social space built into the scoreboard porch. The area will feature specialty cocktails made with GHOST energy drinks, interactive experiences, and rotating events throughout the season.

Premium seating is also getting an upgrade with LaScala’s FIRE taking over the newly re-named Philadelphia Insurance Club (formerly the C.P. Rankin Club or the Diamond Club). The South Philly-based restaurant will serve as the culinary partner for the premium area, bringing a more upscale, Italian-American dining experience.

Meanwhile, convenience is a major focus in 2026. New Corona Beer Garden Grab & Go locations and a Coca-Cola Home Plate Grab & Go Market using Amazon Just Walk Out technology will allow fans to grab food and drinks without waiting in traditional lines.

New food specials

The Phillies are also leaning into personality with a lineup of player-inspired menu items, each tied to charitable causes.

  • Sánchez Sliders (Coca-Cola Corner): Honey-spiced chicken sliders created with Cristopher Sánchez, with proceeds benefiting Clínica de Familia, a healthcare clinic in his hometown.
  • Schwarbomb Sundae (Coca-Cola Corner): A shareable dessert topped with a fried strawberry Uncrustable and served in an All-Star Game helmet, supporting Kyle Schwarber’s foundation, Schwarber’s Neighborhood Heroes.
  • “The Sweeper” Steak Sandwich (Campos): A Luzardo-inspired ribeye topped with pizza sauce, provolone, and pepperoni, benefitting The Luzardo Family Foundation, supporting children's health and wellness and underserved community programs. (Available only when he starts.)

Beyond the player collabs, the Phillies are refreshing some classics:

  • A revamped 1883 Burger Co. Smash Burger across multiple sections
  • The return of the viral 9-9-9 Challenge (nine mini hot dogs, nine beers, nine innings)
  • A massive Bull’s BBQ sampler platter
  • The oversized Hatfield Phootlong Dog
  • Expanded Manco & Manco Pizza locations

All of it continues the Phillies’ trend of blending novelty with local flavor.

Cheers to new drinks

On the beverage side, the Phillies are going all-in on unique and shareable experiences.

The signature Red October Punch cocktail is now available in a souvenir carafe with interlocking cups, designed for group enjoyment.

Beer partnerships also get a visual refresh:

  • Yuengling Powder Blue cans, inspired by the Phillies’ throwback uniforms and tied to Aaron Nola
  • Budweiser retro Phillies cans, celebrating both MLB’s history and America’s 250th anniversary

In addition, Stateside Vodka becomes the team’s official vodka, further emphasizing the club’s push toward local partnerships.

And for dessert lovers, Wilt’s Chocolate Smothered Berries, a viral hit from Reading Terminal Market, will now be served fresh at the ballpark.

Final thoughts

With MLB All-Star Week coming to Philadelphia in 2026, these upgrades feel intentional. Faster service, stronger local ties, and Instagram-ready menu items all point toward a ballpark experience built for both diehards and casual fans alike.

Citizens Bank Park has long been known for its atmosphere. In 2026, the Phillies are adding menu items to make its food and beverage options just as memorable.

“As we prepare for the 2026 season and beyond, we are working to create an unprecedented fan experience at every level of the ballpark,” said Phillies Chief Revenue Officer Jackie Cuddeback. “We’re excited to welcome our fans back to baseball while introducing an incredible new lineup of food options that further solidify Citizens Bank Park as one of the premier food destinations in professional sports.”
