Entertainment & Activities
Our ballpark is on its way to being to San Francisco what Wrigley Field is to Chicago. The signature of the city is water and hills, so it’s fitting the park sits right on the bay and has beautiful views of both. The city is also a culinary capital and our food lives up to that—the crazy crab sandwich is real crab on a toasted sourdough roll.
We’ve made the park kid-friendly with the Fanlot, just beyond the outfield. There’s a little field where young kids can hit wiffle balls and pretend they’re Barry Bonds. That’s next to a big Coca-Cola bottle with four big slides in it. Also, after Sunday games, kids 14 and under can run the bases.

AT&T Park is so close to San Francisco Bay that home runs hit to right field splash down in McCovey Cove. When the Giants play, people in the know rent kayaks on Pier 40 right by the park and paddle in the cove for a one-of-a-kind game experience. A whole fleet shows up—for big games there are so many you could walk across the cove on them.
A lot of boaters take a radio or even a TV out on the water, but Major League Baseball’s At Bat app is really the best way to follow the game. It has all sorts of options—you can listen to it or follow it in summary form. They even show each pitch in a graphic format.

This is a great place close to the ballpark to rent a bike, a good, traffic-free way to get out and see the city after a day game. The Bike Hut has good prices, and they’re a nonprofit with a youth training program.
Biking is also the easiest way to get yourself to a baseball game. The San Francisco Bicycle Coalition has a free bike valet on the right field side. You can ride along the beautiful waterfront to the ballpark and cycle right in.

Food Scene
This pop-up village of places to eat and drink right next to AT&T Park is made up of shipping containers assembled around an open, outdoor seating area. Fans always gather here before and after a ballgame.
Order an Orange Splash Lager, which Anchor Brewing makes right here in San Francisco in honor of the Giants.

This burger and ribs type restaurant across the street feels like an extension of the ballpark—even the patio umbrellas are orange. It’s really popular with people who have tickets, and on game day it’s always filled with people wearing their Giants gear. It was the first place to open when AT&T Park was finished.
Players have been known to show up after a game.

Getting Around
During baseball season, a ferry goes from Jack London in Oakland right to AT&T Park. It’s so cool—you’re on a boat with other Giants fans, you can have something to drink or eat, and along the way you’re looking at the skyline of one of the most beautiful cities in the world. I don’t know of any other ballparks that have a ferry service like this.
If you’re in Marin, you can also catch a ferry to the park from Larkspur.

Sightseeing
On the water side of AT&T Park, anyone can stand and watch the game for free in three arched viewing corridors. We have hot dog vendors out there and everything. It’s a real only-in-San Francisco experience with nice energy—some fans love it so much that they prefer to watch from there.
This is a throwback to what they used to call a knothole view, when kids would watch games through the holes in a ballpark fence. If it’s a really in-demand game, we’ll let people watch for two or three innings, then rotate in the next group so everybody gets a shot at it.

Drinks & Nightlife
When the Giants arrived in San Francisco in 1958 as the first Major League team on the West Coast, they played at Seals Stadium. The stadium is gone now, but this old-school bar across from where it stood is an homage to those early days. There are old team photos on the walls, and it’s a fun place to watch a game in a real San Francisco environment.
Look for the plaque commemorating the old ballpark in the sidewalk at the northeast corner of the intersection of 16th and Bryant Streets.

There’s a lot of baseball significance here. Lefty O’Doul, the manager of the city’s old minor-league team, the San Francisco Seals, opened this classic Union Square bar and restaurant in 1958. The walls are covered with baseball memorabilia, and even the bar stools are made from baseball bats.
Lefty was also a Giant—he played with the team in the ’20s and ’30s while they were still in New York.

Before and after games, this sports bar built right into AT&T Park is packed. There’s just great energy and a real community feel on game days. Try out their big selection of local beers on tap.
When the Giants are out of town, they do happy hour specials. So it’s a good place to be with fellow fans at the ballpark even when the team is playing an away game.
