New ballpark bites are on deck at PNC Park for the upcoming Pittsburgh Pirates season.
The team unveiled the new lineup Wednesday, featuring creative spins on Steel City staples — from pierogies and kielbasa to chipped ham favorites.
In total, nine new menu items will be available at select spots throughout the ballpark.

“There is so much to be excited for this upcoming season, and that list includes our new food offerings around PNC Park,” Pirates President Travis Williams said in the announcement. “Every year, we work with our partners Aramark Sports Entertainment to add to our already extensive food offerings to include items that will surely be must-haves for fans attending a Pirates game.
“This year is no different, and we are especially excited to continue to add Pittsburgh favorites for our local fans as well as those visiting from out of town.”
Also coming for the 2026 Pirates season are three specialty souvenir items: a Miller Lite Beer Bat available at select stands throughout PNC Park, a Fastball souvenir cup available at select locations throughout the park and ice cream souvenir plastic helmets with three different Pirates logo options that fans can try to collect.
The Pirates said there will be two more Tenders Love & Chicken stands added throughout the ballpark, and the Pirates Treasure Map will have an updated design with new hidden features for fans to explore around PNC Park.
