"Location: Ashburn Alley, Sections 208, 319, Hall of Fame Club sections 218 & 225; everywhere ice cream is sold. We’d be remiss not to mention the legends of Citizens Bank Park, and no, we don’t mean the Hall of Famers. You cannot go wrong with the spicy crab fries and signature cheese sauce from Chickies & Pete’s, a chocolate-vanilla swirl of soft serve and rainbow jimmies in a Phils helmet, and a salty soft pretzel spoon. If the dozens of stands become too overwhelming, just stick with these." - alison kessler, candis mclean
"Location: 104, 116, 204, 210, 216, and 222A If you head to the Wells Fargo Center or the ballpark and leave without eating crab fries, did the game even happen? We’ll never know because we’ve never done it. And with the most vendor locations in the building, we guess most of the city agrees. We’re certain they sell more chicken tender baskets and fries with Old Bay-flavored mozzarella than Embiid shirts every night. Why? Because they’re just as legendary as any jersey hanging from the rafters." - candis mclean
"Chickie’s & Pete’s is a South Philly and Northeast sports bar where the beer comes in towers and the wings are hot and messy. They’ve got a surprisingly good lobster roll, and the signature crab fries are a Philly sports fan birthright. But if you’ve been to a stadium, airport, or the boardwalk, you probably knew that already. There’s no dress code here, but you’re on your own if you roll up wearing a Cowboy’s jersey." - candis mclean
"No list of sports bars in Philly is complete without Chickie’s & Pete’s down by the stadiums. Yes, you can eat crab fries and shout at the refs at other locations of the home-grown chain, but with a 24,000-square-foot space, three bars, and an 18-foot screen, this godfather of Philly sports bars is the place to be on game days." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff
