Chicago (NL) – Wrigley Field

Seats in the 200 (lower) and 400 (upper) levels risk an obstructed view.

Foods at the Ballpark

  • Italian Beef and Sausage

Wrigley Field has your typically ballpark fare. I do recommend the Italian beef, Italian sausage, or the combined Italian beef and sausage right off the grill.

Parking and Transportation

The area around Wrigley Field has very few options for parking.

The Metro Red Line also runs right next to Wrigley Field. If you want to avoid traffic, use public transit and take the Metro Red Line to go to the game.

Hotels

There are some hotels near Wrigley Field that can make for a convenient walk to the game.

Hotels in downtown Chicago are typically nearby the Metro line, which makes it convenient to take the train to the game.

Hotels by Chicago Midway Airport can be a more affordable option for places to stay when visiting Chicago, but you will either need to drive to the ballpark or take an Uber or Lyft.
