Any word on what they got rid of?(for example is that Canal St Pizza replacing whatever the Pizza place was called last year?

Looks like it's pretty much the same. Canal Street Pizza is the same stand that was there last year so no change there. Looks like they added some new stands on the mezzanine level like the Ardent Burger stand but most won't have access to those.

I've been very underwhelmed by the food so far at FF. I expect that it will be expensive but it's just not very good. And as has been talked about of course there are a ton of good options near/around the FF. But I don't always have time to eat elsewhere before a game.

Eat after the game.

Oh man I don't know that I could disagree with you any more than I do. I'll agree it's overpriced but compared to Miller Park, Camp Randall, Lambeau, etc I think Fiserv has the most diverse options and the best tasting options

[MickeyDavis]

Yeah a lot of options, none of them very good IMO. Laughing Taco was a joke, pizza bleh, Sobelman's was ok, Iron Grate was probably the best but I've had far better. I didn't eat anything there after the first 4-5 times, maybe it's now better.

[MVP2110]

Personally I'm a big fan of the Fried Chicken, Chick Fil A, the Pizza is decent, Sobelmans is good. My girlfriend loves the fish & Greek options upstairs. Idk maybe we just have different tastes but I'd take Fiserv Forum food options over any other stadium in Wisconsin easily

[skones]

Ardent is a weird fit. Is El Rey an addition or were they around last year and I missed them. Their pork tamales are one of the best values in the entire damn city.

It's better than the rest but not good enough to justify the price. I'm weird about food but rather wait 2 hours for decent healthy food at a good price or just eat something at work before the game.

Is there any sports arena that you would consider better?

No but they set the expectations high. Said they were bringing in great restaurants and making it a good destination. It isn't that. Sobelmans doesn't sell sobelmans burgers. Not even worth waiting in line for it so slightly less worst food I won't buy isn't any better than really bad food I won't buy.

Only restaurant I think is decent is Dan dan in the pano club but that didn't open until February.

My favorite stadium food was refugee at the Bradley center. Green smoothie, wrap and carrots for 12 bucks.

So I think this is the issue for alot of people. They want restaurant quality food. They compare the type of food that you can get at actual Sobelmans compared to the Sobelmans in the stadium. I do think the owners have done a great job of putting in a wide variety of foods and local foods specifically, but it is more expensive and less quality than going to a normal restaurant. But I think they are far better compared to other stadiums in the region

Eat after the game.

so the only solution to a bad food situation is to simply not utilize it?

it's 2019, i would hope we can do better than that.

Umm, yes? The only other option is a boycott/protest and that won't work if you don't get hundreds, if not thousands to join along, which seems unlikely.

[MVP2110]

Realistically what do you guys think the Fiserv Forum could do to make the food situation better?

[talbert]

Just sell normal stadium food. Hot dogs, hamburgers, nachos, that sort of stuff. Don't try to make it all something it's not, and stop hyping it up like it's sit-down restaurant quality food. I personally love the food at Miller.

But then you get a lot of people who want more than just basic stadium food. My girlfriend is immensely more excited to go to Bucks games because of the food options she has as opposed to Brewers games.

Plus you can get that Burgers & hot dogs at Fiserv if you want.

I do agree it isn't restaurant quality, but I think that's an unrealistic expectation and the Bucks shouldn't hype it up as that.

It’s all garbage so don’t try to sell people on it being something other than garbage and don’t price it as restaurant quality.

You see Miller Park & Lambeau hyping up their new food options as well every year and things are just as expensive at those stadiums. I guess in my opinion stadiums will never have restaurant quality food, so we shouldn't compare them to restaurants, we should compare them to their counterparts. The bucks tried to bring in real local restaurants into the stadium, but it's unrealistic to expect them to be able to sell the same quality in the stadium as they do at their actual locations
