VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena

Pair arena sports with a meal across the street, or head to Springfield afterward for food and another game on TV.

The arena brings Icemen hockey, Sharks indoor football, and Waves women's basketball into the Downtown sports complex. It also hosts visiting college games and other sports events.

That Bar at the Arena gives you a meal stop across the street. For a brewery with confirmed TV viewing, Strings is a separate drive into Springfield.

Food & drinks around the venue

That Bar at the Arena

Across A. Philip Randolph Boulevard from the arena and ballpark. Walk from either; allow a longer walk from EverBank.

Cowford Chophouse

A sit-down meal farther west in Downtown. Plan the trip to the sports complex separately; this is not next door to the stadium.
