State Farm Arena's $192 million renovation transformed the food and beverage experience into one of the best in the NBA. The concourse features local Atlanta vendors, Southern comfort food staples, and craft cocktail bars. The arena emphasizes local partnerships. Expect smoked meats, peach cobbler, and Atlanta-style wings alongside classic arena fare. Outside the arena, downtown Atlanta's restaurant scene within walking distance is excellent.
Tips & Fan Reports
Nachos from the stand behind section 103 are my favorite food item in the arena. The Players Club and Chase Club are totally worth it if you are going to eat and drink - those are all-inclusive.
The Topgolf Lounge has its own food and drink menu separate from the main concourse.
Mobile ordering is available via the Hawks app for faster pickup.
The renovated concourse has way more food variety than a typical NBA arena, explore before defaulting to the basics.
SweetWater and Creature Comforts (Georgia craft breweries) are available throughout the arena. Try a local brew.
The Varsity is a must-visit Atlanta experience. Go before the game if you have time.
Pregame at Marietta Street restaurants is almost always better value than arena food.
