Hall of Fame Club Menus
By: katypolansky | Category: Concourse
The Phillies have a middle layer of seating in its ballpark called the Hall of Fame Club. It is described on the Phillies website like this:
Hall of Fame Club seating offers a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere to enjoy a Phillies game with clients, friends, or family. Enjoy a drink and a panini sandwich at one of our Bistros, take a stroll through Cooperstown Gallery and see some incredible baseball memorabilia, or catch up on some action from other games on one of the various flat screen televisions situated throughout the club.
Hall of Fame Club seating at Citizens Bank Park includes:
• Press Level Seating
• Access to private climate-controlled lounge areas
• Bistro-style dining along with private concessions
• Two full-service bars
• Philadelphia favorites - Bull's BBQ, Chickie's and Pete's Crab Fries and Tony Luke's Roast Pork Sandwich
• Cooperstown Gallery - a mini Hall of Fame paying tribute to Philadelphia baseball legends and local baseball greats
• Private and family restrooms
I’ve been fortunate to sit in many nice seats, in many nice stadiums in my life. The Phillies Hall of Fame Club was very good in terms of comfort and amenities offered. However, my favorite part of the club was such a simple idea, I can’t believe I’ve never seen it in any other premium seating area. At each entrance to the club the Phillies had posted a detailed listing of the food offerings that could be found on the club level. This makes sense in so many ways. First, it helps a patron know what’s available without taking 20 minutes to walk around. Second, since the patrons aren’t aimlessly walking around looking for food the walkways tend to be more clear and people are paying attention to where they are going as opposed to trying to read food signage. Finally, it helps to prevent the inevitable fan disappointment of spending $20 for a drink, burger and fries, only to find out he could have walked two more sections to get the pizza he really wanted. Kudos to the Phillies for making concession information readily available to its fans.
