Here’s what to eat at Globe Life Field for upcoming Texas Rangers MLB season
Thinking of going to opening weekend at Globe Life Field when the world champion Texas Rangers begin their title defense?
There’s more to the new season than tweaked uniforms and a new playing surface. On Monday, the Rangers, partnered with Delaware North, unveiled new food offerings at Globe Life Field for the upcoming season including partnerships with local and national brands. Many of last year’s offerings made the list for the new season.
The Rangers have expanded on Arlington Eats, located near section 101, which features local restaurants on a rotating basis including Ella B’s Restaurant, Prince Lebanese Grill, Sugar Bee Sweets Bakery, The Tin Cup, Cartel Tacos and newcomers Shrimp Doc and TJ’s Catfish and Wings.
