The Garden at AT&T Park

Absolutely amazing. They grow their food literally on site, you can sit down in the garden amongst the vegetables that were used to make your food. It’s fresh, organic, and delicious. The portions are also big and NOT more expensive than anything else at the ballpark. Definitely where I choose to eat anytime I go to a Giants game.

Now this is one example of the gentrification of SF that I don’t mind. Our ball park just got even cooler with the opening of The Garden at AT&T Park.
President Obama announced the opening of an edible garden at AT&T park last year and it just opened a couple of weeks ago. If you haven’t stopped by, you should make a point to during your next game. Fertilized with coffee grounds from Peet’s, the edible garden provides fresh produce that is then turned into delicious salads and flatbreads among other dishes. I had the arugula and broad bean salad which they topped off with heirloom tomatoes on mine because they didn’t have enough beans. Hey I’m not complaining. It was a delicious salad. All the ingredients were so fresh and the salad dressing in tandem with the parmesan made for a nicely composed salad that I’ll gladly have for lunch outside the ballpark. The kicker? It was only $ 8. In the ball park no less! Nachos with that glob that passes for cheese is almost the same price. I also got a 21^st Amendment watermelon wheat, with a slice of watermelon no less, for only $ 7. That might be the best beer deal inside the stadium period.
Kudos to the Giants and Bön Appétit for creating a wonderful space with good fresh food — equipped with a full bar, ample seating, and fire pits, it’s a nice space to lounge out in the day, enjoy some sunshine, and watch the game on TV. Yup that’s the only ding. You don’t actually have views of the game even though you’re at the stadium but it’s totally worth a stop before to get some good food and drink.
