Forbes

The crack of the bat, the smell of fresh-cut grass, and the sight of loaded concession stands can only mean one thing: it's time for baseball. The 2025 MLB season is here, and it's off to an electric start. From Juan Soto swapping the Bronx for Queens, to the Dodgers' powerhouse lineup sparking chatter of a potential challenge to the 116-win record set by the 1906 Cubs and 2001 Mariners, this season promises to be pure cinema.
Off the field, the 2024 MLB season recorded the largest attendance in seven years, with a total of 71,348,366 fans—an increase over the previous year. This surge in attendance is expected to have a major impact on ballpark concessions, with teams likely to see a rise in demand for both classic stadium snacks and new, dynamic menu items.
In Seattle, Chef Craig McAlister, Executive Chef for Sodexo Live! at T-Mobile Park, is up for the task.
'Can't wait to get the new season started at T-Mobile Park, always known as one of the best venues for food in all of sports," he shared with Forbes. "For us, there's no offseason, and we've spent the last few months curating a menu that's got exciting additions but also features gameday favorites. Fans are in for a treat, as we help ensure every visit to T-Mobile Park is a memorable one.'
Here are a few of the best new menu items to look out for in the 2025 MLB season that promise to make your ballpark experience even better.
