Where (and what) to eat in and around Mercedes-Benz Stadium

If Monday’s game is your first opportunity to check out Mercedes-Benz Stadium, you’ll notice an upgrade from the old Dome’s dining options.

First, there's reasonable pricing on core concession items: Soft drinks and water are $2 and come with unlimited refills. Popcorn and hot dogs are priced at $2. Waffle fries, a bag of peanuts, a slice of pizza and nachos with cheese all run $3. A cheeseburger is $5; a basket of chicken tenders with fries is $6.

Better food

Out of a massive kitchen come more chef-driven menu items. Items include a brisket grilled cheese sandwich of braised beef, fontina cheese and barbecue aioli on Texas toast with a side of kettle chips.

Burgers are hand-packed, and meat, like the brisket piled on an order of burnt end nachos or the barbacoa beef for tacos, is smoked in-house. Pickles, dressings and other condiments are made on-site.

More beer

The number of beer taps has grown from 30 at the Georgia Dome to 1,264 at Mercedes-Benz. And the types of beer on offer range from mass-market brands, such as Bud Light and Stella Artois, to specialty brands, such as Goose Island and Ballast Point, plus a half-dozen Georgia craft brands.

But what may be the best news of all is the pricing. A 12-ounce domestic draft is $5, a 12-ounce premium draft is $6, a 20-ounce domestic draft or a 16-ounce can is $7, and a 20-ounce premium draft or a 16-ounce premium can is $9.
