Food and Drink at New Ryan Field
The plazas, 2 hours before kickoff
LEGENDS IN RESIDENCE
The Village is a 50,000-square-foot culinary district showcasing custom stadium residencies by Chicago's culinary royalty. Legends including Rick Bayless, Stephanie Izard, and Gibsons operate from five custom-designed pavilions housing seven vendors, offering exclusive concepts developed specifically for Ryan Field fans.
Big Ten Grillout
Everything you love best about game day — the smoke, the burgers, the cold ones, the hours before kickoff — at a scale you've never seen. Barrel grills the size of trucks. Corn roasters straight from farm country, roasting sweet corn in the husk at scale. You don't need a parking pass, a cooler, or a friend with a truck.

Willie’s fan favorites
Willie's Fan Favorites is the home of Chicago sports’ first $5 menu. Willie’s serves high-quality versions of the fan favorites every stadium-goer knows, hot dogs, burgers, nachos, popcorn and soft drinks, done right and priced at $5 per item. It is game-day food done right at a price no Chicago venue has offered before, further making New Ryan Field financially accessible for every fan, from students to families.
Best of Chicago Eats
The classics that built a city. Chicago doesn’t need a stadium to tell it what good food is, so we brought in the operators who already settled the argument. The snap of a Vienna Beef Chicago-style dog dragged through the garden. Al’s Italian Beef dipped in rich au jus. Pat’s tavern-style pizza, the square-cut classic Chicagoans actually order and visitors always get wrong. Chicago Steakhouse Burgers made with USDA Prime beef, the top 10% of all beef in the United States. And Garrett’s, a Chicago tradition since 1949, to finish.

Local Favorites
The local spots you already know and love are serving on game day. Neighborhood restaurants from Evanston and the North Shore run pop-up stands throughout the concourses, the same dishes you’d order at home, a few steps from your seat. It’s a hometown favorite, in the middle of a Big Ten Saturday.
