The Bull Pen Patio
A Little Something for Everyone
Food at Lewis & Clark Park is standard baseball fare with the added option of (limited) mixed drinks at one of the drinking stands. Concession stands are on both the first and third base sides on ground level (just go down the stairs). Candy and beverage vendors do make the rounds as well.
Also at the ball park is the bullpen patio. It gets its name from it's location just beyond the Explorers' bullpen. It's a great place to watch the game and also acts as a place for SRO crowds.
Restrooms
Before the game:
For the tailgating crowd there is a portable toilet just on the grass on the southwest corner of the parking lot.
During the game
Permanent restrooms are behind the main stands on each side. They are large enough to accommodate the crowds adequately without much (if any) waiting.
