Best minor league ballpark in America! Nestled in Reading PA overlooking the hills in right field this venue is the best place to watch a baseball game. Great food ($2 dogs) and a excellent selection of craft beers. The beer prices vary between $6-6.75 for 16 oz to $10 for 32 oz size although Ive been there when they reduced it to $8 on slow nights. Live band plays during happy hour and after fireworks. The deck out behind left field offers high top tables and group seating. The bar is approximately 25 feet long with 3-4 bartenders with a good selection of beer to choose from. Parking is free which is a rarity in this age but come early on fireworks night. The ticket prices are very reasonable and for an additional $15 you can buy the all you can eat buffet. Free Wi-Fi using CREATIVE as password (2017 season). Been going here since 1989 and never been disappointed.

This is a place you take the kids to keep them entertained. The whole family will end up walking around. Seriously, how many people do you need doing stupid activities in costumes? Logic dictates that most people come to a baseball game to watch baseball. If I wanted to watch 50 commercials I would just stay at home and turn on a tv. Gee I wonder why its always so easy to find free tickets from somebody . First energy stick to electric. Most people avoid this place and just wait for the Royal season to start. I know I do, but I actually like to be entertained and engaged.

Great little ballpark! The staff are very friendly & helpful - ticket takers, food vendors, everyone. Its very clean, feels spacious, easy to move around & navigate. The seats are pretty comfortable and the view of the field is good from everywhere. There is certainly something for everyone - all ages, and all fan levels. And the fireworks are terrific! The show has a great mix and pacing, not too long or too short. What a nice place to spend a summer evening :-)

I feel It is the parks responsibility to ensure the pleasant experience of all fans at the game. There was a very loud and distracting person on the left field wall. The staff spoke to him multiple times but to no avail. He continued to be loud for over an hour Nothing was done. I am very disappointed at the harassment of players that is tolerated plus the annoyance to paying customer/fan. Nice park and employees. But the experience kind of ruined my night!

This is a great place to catch a minor league baseball game in a historic baseball park. All views are great as there is not a bad spot in the park. The atmosphere is great, but is not as busy and gimmicky as newer parks. Parking is not a bother at all. It is quite simply, the best place to catch a minor league ball game in eastern Pennsylvania. The only issue for watch a game is whether the Phills cleaned out the farm system.

A great experience! My daughter and I went there for her field trip. The game was amazing as was the food! Granted, the food was a tad bit expensive but it was worth it. I didnt pay much since I was a chaperone and my daughters admission ticket was $6! So much entertainment and a whole lot of joyful screaming!! Great place to go for Family Fun!

Cant go wrong at a Fightins game. Super fun time for the whole family. All kinds of fun stuff going on all the time all over the place. Even if your not too into baseball, they have great food, great merchandise, and fun thing going on between innings. I like going to a Fightins game more than a Phillies game.

Best family oriented baseball park around. FirstEnergy Stadium is more than just a baseball game. We go late to grab a beer watch fireworks and enjoy the bands. The entire ballpark staff are very friendly and so helpful. Congratulations to the management for doing such a terrific job of making it all work.

We had VIP places to watch a baseball game and it was a lot of fun. The staff was quick at ordering food and drink and bring it. The prices are very good compared to going to a game in Philadelphia. And since we went with our little kids just for the experience, there was no need to spend more money.

Go fightins! So much more to do for the kids. When I was a wee lad, I was forced to sit and watch the game in the bleachers.... Not only has the seating improved, but theres a swimming pool... Areas dedicated to private parties... Just a much nicer atmosphere in general.

It was an ok park. Beer did not taste like it was stored properly when I was there. General admission seating had great views. There was a pool in right field next to what looked like a bar. Fun family night but not the greatest ball park Ive been to (minor league wise)

Un buen lugar para disfrutar del verano y la pelota. Mucha comida, energ io a y diversión. Un lugar familiar y muy seguro.

My favorite stadium. A perfect balance of having enough while staying inexpensive and family friendly. Free parking, cheap tickets, lots of food options, lots of beer options, tons of things flying into the stands between innings, and solid AA baseball.

Nostalgic looking and feeling place filled with lots of fun for the whole family. Great food and drink - most importantly, great atmosphere baseball. Tickets are not expensive $10-20 and well worth it. Enjoy a great night out at the park!

Was there for a baseball game. They really do it up. They have a variety of food including healthy options. Post game they did live music so you can hang out. Parking is a little limited and getting out is rough so stay for the music.

A great time here. Better than some major league ball games. The actual games are hit or miss but the rest of the organization make sure fans are engaged and entertained for all 9 innings. Plus the tix and food are cheap.

Ive been to a lot of major and minor league ballparks...this one rates low for one reason. The parking is atrocious. If you dont get there hours early dont bother going...youll spend a half hour looking for a place to park.

Always a great family night out. Great minor league ballpark. The players and staff are awesome. Great food and fun atmosphere. If you are looking to go to a minor league game then this is definitely the place to go.

Always a good time at the First Energy Stadium. Very clean. Pleasant staff. The mascots are awesome and go out of their way for you. Great fireworks too. Free parking and the food is somewhat reasonable.
