Aramark Unveils New Concession Options At Citi Field For '17 Season

The Mets and concessionaire Aramark yesterday unveiled a series of new food and beverage options for the ’17 season at Citi Field, including ballpark versions of N.Y. culinary favorites Cookie Dô NYC, which makes an edible cookie dough, and Nicoletta Pizzeria. Also planned for this season is the introduction of the Jim Beam Bourbon Bar in center field near the Home Run Apple. The new offerings follow a series of larger facility changes rolled last year at Citi Field, now entering its ninth season, including a renaming of two luxury areas for car brand Porsche and the introduction of the Coca-Cola Corner and Bud Light Landing. “It’s very important to keep iterating each season, and keep pushing the envelope on what’s possible from a fan experience standpoint,” said Exec VP & CRO Lou DePaoli.
