South Bend Cubs News Release


SOUTH BEND, IN - Today, the South Bend Cubs have unveiled the 2026 concession menus which adds fan favorite menu items as well as new flavors to an already stacked lineup.

STAND AND EQUIPMENT UPGRADES

Just as Four Winds Field received upgrades to the facility, the portable food carts along the concourse were also enhanced. With the removal of the concourse level indoor suites, additional space became available for Steakadelphia, Smashburger, and drink carts on the 1st and 3rd base sides of the concourse.

As announced last week, Franx Hot Dog Cart has been added to the left field corner by the new Event Building. Franx is where fans can get freshly grilled hot dogs, Chicago dogs, BBQ bacon dog, bratwurst, Italian sausage and the returning Opponent Dogs (see below for schedule).

The new Event Building in left field has a brand-new kitchen that is more than 3 times the size of the previous kitchen. Executive Chef Marc Rossetti and his culinary team will be able to create amazing menus for special events as well as having the space to cook for over 10,000 hungry fans.

NEW MENU ITEMS

Cantina on the 3rd base side, behind section 117, also received a face lift and two new menu items. Cheese or chicken quesadillas and Mexican street tacos are now available throughout the season in addition to the helmet nachos and Doritos walking taco.

Also added is a new Grab and Go station, located next to Sweetspot where Gate A use to be behind home plate. Fans looking for options like hot dogs, hamburgers, popcorn, bottled soda and canned beer can make a quick stop for these ballpark staples.

LOCAL VENDORS ADDED TO THE ROSTER

New at Sweet Spot is Niles, Michigan based ice cream provider The GOAT (Greatest of All Time) Ice Cream Billy Sandwiches, available in vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry. GOAT Ice Cream is locally sourced and uses natural ingredients.

Munster based brewery 3Floyds has a new beverage stand behind home plate called Deluxe Dugout. Popular beers like Zombie Dust, Gumballhead, and Floyds Deluxe will be available in addition to other ballpark favorites.

WHAT'S A DIRTY SODA?

Dirty soda is a customizable, non-alcoholic drink made by adding flavored syrups, cream (like half-and-half or coconut cream), and sometimes fresh fruit (like lime) to a base soda, creating a creamy, dessert-like beverage. Popularized by Utah-based soda shops and social media, it's a popular alternative to coffee and tea, with no set rules for combinations.

Drink options will include Poppi, Alani, and Pepsi products with assorted syrup flavors and creams. These new drink options will be available in the suite and premium areas. However, guests on the concourse will have the chance to create their own. Additional details will be announced soon.

Opponent cocktails also return at all concourse bars including the new Bacardi Cocktail Corner on the 1st base side of the concourse (see below for schedule).
