Citizens Bank Park: spend an afternoon with the Phillies

Start in Ashburn Alley, come hungry, and leave room for a loud, thoroughly Philadelphia ballgame.

By Gamebook · Reviewed

Citizens Bank Park gives you plenty to notice before the first pitch: the Phillies' red, the view toward the city, and the food decisions that can turn a short walk into a long discussion. Come hungry, and leave time for Ashburn Alley.

The park opened in 2004 in South Philadelphia's sports complex. Make the trip south with time to settle in. Philadelphia rewards a little attention, both on the field and at the counter.

Make the trip south simple

SEPTA's B line, the Broad Street subway, serves the sports complex at NRG Station. From Center City, it is worth comparing with driving, especially when another venue has an event. Check service for your date and allow time for the walk from the station to the park.

Give Ashburn Alley your first walk

Ashburn Alley brings food, Phillies history, and a view into the visiting bullpen together beyond the outfield. Begin here while your whole group still has time to stop. There is something for the person reading every plaque and the person wondering where lunch is.

The Wall of Fame gives the names on old Phillies jerseys some context. If you are traveling with a parent or grandparent, ask which players they remember. The answer may be more interesting than a list of career totals.

Choose a Philadelphia lunch

A cheesesteak is an obvious starting point, and this is a perfectly good place to be obvious. The local lineup also includes Bull's BBQ and Chickie's & Pete's crab fries. Use the current concessions list to find the food you want.

Choose a meeting place before splitting up if everybody wants something different. Then sit down together for a few innings and compare the results. Lunch is part of a Philadelphia ballgame's appeal.

Be ready when the bell moves

A Phillies home run sets off the large Liberty Bell in right-center field. Keep it in mind for your first wide photograph, then watch how the crowd reacts if a ball clears the fence. The pause between a big swing and certainty is one of baseball's great pleasures.

For a day game, compare covered rows as well as field position and check sun exposure with the team. A comfortable seat lets you enjoy the quieter innings too. This is a fine place to watch the whole game, with a Philadelphia lunch and a crowd ready for the next big moment.
