The Definitive Guide to PNC Arena Dining
Headed to the PNC Arena for NCAA Tournament action this weekend? You’ll likely find yourself hungry. Thankfully the arena has good food to reward that hard work pulling your team through!
Best Options
- Sausage Cart – The options of three Italian-style sausages with onions and peppers stands as an option rivaling any at the state fair. (Concourse, Sections 106, 121)
- Chicken Wrap – (The Deck, Section 111)
- House Chips – (The Deck, Section 111)
- French Fries – Vinegar available at condiments stand. (Section 107 concession stand in West Priority Lounge).
- Tacos – Dos Banditos (Concourse, Section 111)
- Mucho Nachos – Dos Banditos (Concourse, Section 111)
- Fresh Popcorn – (Concourse, Sections 119 & 130)
- Ice Cream – Fresh waffle cones! (Concourse, Section 115)
- Steak & Cheese Cart – Usually has a moderate/long/slow line (Concourse, Section 121)
- Carvery Cart (turkey, roast beef) – (Concourse, Section 121)
- Cheap Hamburger – (Concourse, Section 129) – fast-food burger that isn’t bad. Probably a better value than the hamburgers in The Deck. The fries from this stand are not good, however.
- There are “healthy” options, such as wraps, at the concession stand near Section 126 (Front entrance)
Options to avoid
- Any pizza product – ugh!
- Chicken tenders at The Deck
- Chicken sandwiches from most concession stands
- Nachos from any place but Dos Banditos
- Barbecue – (especially noted for you people from Memphis). Greasy and fatty.
- Hot Dogs – Better used as cornhole projectiles.
- Popcorn where the popper isn’t clearly visible (can be stale)
