The Chase Center, esteemed for its prestige in gathering people from all over the world to enjoy sports and events together, has unveiled their new impeccably tasty food menu that wholeheartedly aims to authentically reflect the vivid diversity of its beloved crowd. Such arena offerings take innovative inspiration from global comfort classics and creatively reimagine them with a modern Bay Area flair that still honorably retains their cultural identity.
All of these thoughtful new dishes are served with a brilliant and heartfelt backstory, all thanks to their program with incredibly talented local Taste Makers that precisely craft the magic into each must-try winning bite.

A supportive love for local entrepreneurs and small businesses, a strong partnership with Bon Appétit Management Company, and a prime location within the multicultural and innovative culinary hub of the Bay Area- these are all the secret ingredients to the Chase Center's delicious new cuisine.
By kindly welcoming eight local eateries to modernly refresh the arena's menu, further Bay Area pride is instilled onto every plate with their exclusively original concepts. A few to introduce their items include women-owned business incubator La Cocina's Peaches Patties and Noodle Girl, Cocina Milonga, and Old Skool Cafe, with locally-renowned names of Sarap Shop and Boug Cali debuting their ingeniously comforting creations to all their hungry Chase Center fans.
"To really bring the diverse culinary experience of the Bay Area to life here is spectacular," Chase Center's General Manager Donna Daniels proudly elucidates when describing the inspiration and mission of their food. "Also their focus on fresh, from-scratch recipes and favorites are another thing that makes this place really amazing and again, why we are so proud of partnering with Bon Appetit."
The Chase Center truly understands and appreciates their local audience, leaning in and taking the time to acknowledge their demographics to formulate genuine ways to platform their community's cultures through the food. What results from such devoted diligence results in a consciously-crafted, stellar menu that is not only nutritious and filling beyond traditional arena fare, but also uplifts grassroots businesses and intersectional voices, and promotes the Bay Area's rich diversity.
The Sarap Shop, a Filipino-led business owned by Kristen Brillantes and JP Reyes, is one of the visionary Taste Makers that enhances the Chase Center's provisions. Their focus on making feel-good Filipino classics more inclusive and approachable lends to their Inihaw BBQ Chicken Skewer offering, perfectly grilled and creatively topped with a dusting of a traditional Filipino snack chip.
Peaches Patties, another city favorite, is run by the talented Shani Jones and showcases her Jamaican background through her delightfully sweet Fried Plantains. Another highlight is Old Skool Cafe's melt-in-your-mouth Braised Short Rib Sandwich. This global speakeasy-style Bayview restaurant is by Teresa Goines and involves at-risk youth, helping them develop skills in the kitchen and beyond.
With the Chase Center's mindful culinary approach, everyone can receive a cozy taste of home no matter where they're from, be enlightened by the inspiring stories behind the dishes, and leave with a newfound appreciation for our local Taste Makers' passion and creativity.

You'll come for the games, but truly stay for the food.
