The Best Food and Drink at San Francisco’s Chase Center | Eater SF

"Since its unveiling in 2019, this Mission Bay citadel became the new home for the Golden State Warriors and has reshaped the east side of the city and entertainment in San Francisco, drawing crowds for concerts (Tyler, the Creator), tennis tournaments, NBA All-Star Weekend, and comedy (Gabriel Iglesias). The complex is layered: main and upper concourses host general-seating dining, there’s a cantina on the rooftop, theater boxes at mid-level, lounges lower down, courtside suites for the most luxurious experience, and an outside plaza called Thrive City with shops and restaurants. The stadium’s food program has seen highs and lows — from an abandoned Michael Mina project to one of the NBA’s first fully vegan restaurants — and continues to evolve with three new Taste Maker vendors joining in 2025. Two new stadium cocktails are highlighted in the beverage program: the Golden State Spritz — a combo of vodka, blood orange, lime, and sparkling wine — and the Dub-Berry Jam of bourbon, blackberry, lime, and ginger beer. Bon Appétit operates food service, with beverage consulting from Bon Vivants and BV Hospitality (Trick Dog) on the opening cocktail menu. Wine is emphasized — "more than a hundred different wines available throughout the stadium, from canned rosé to big cabs" — and beer lists mix big brands and local brews (Lagunitas, Fort Point, Cellarmaker, 21st Amendment, San Francisco Brewing Co., Drake’s)." - Paolo Bicchieri
