- CindyR54Calgary, Canada196 contributionsBeautiful Baseball Stadium!Great food and beautiful ball stadium. My husband and I took our young grandsons to watch the Blue Jays and had dinner there. We sat once on the first base line, low down and one in the mid-section of left field. I preferred the higher seats.as you could see more. We had nachos and hot dogs, all good. The only downside is that the wine was TERRIBLE. We went two nights, and had a glass each, both equally bad. The ballpark staff were very helpful and friendly and it was really easy to get in and out, even after the game.Visited April 2024Travelled with familyWritten 11 April 2024
- steveAloha, Oregon4 contributionsMinute Maid Park June 13th 2023Diamond Baseball Tour took us to Houston to see this park. Enjoyed it especially since it was dollar dog night. Been here before for a couple of games. Very entertaining as it was star wars night. So a lot of people in costumes with entertainment on the field also.Visited July 2023Travelled with familyWritten 28 June 2024

The only real problem was that you couldn’t understand the sound system where we were. The dome was closed, so I do not know if that affects the sound. There are so many restaurants here. St Arnold’s brewery stand is awesome.Visited July 2024Travelled with familyWritten 25 July 2024
- Michael ULas Vegas, Nevada47,996 contributionsA good spot to watch baseballRegardless your opinion of the Houston Astros "The Juice Box" is an impressive place to watch baseball. Opened in 2000 with a retractable roof Minute Maid Park sits downtown with plenty of parking and there really isn't a bad seat in the place. Loaded with local concessions plus wide concourses seats also seem larger than most, though a few more access points to upper levels would be ideal.Visited September 2024Travelled soloWritten 16 September 2024

We went here for the Billy Joel Concert. The queue getting in was bad, it didn't help that the Ticketmaster Website kept kicking us out and asking us to log back in, then we couldn't even connect to it. We were not the only ones having this issue.
We then got to our seat only to find they were not as shown on the map but further over. Add to the the space between the aisles was so small the the couple next to me got knocked over when someone was trying to get to their seat in the middle.
I went to get 2 drinks and paid nearly $70, later a single beer for $20 poured out of a can, how can you justify that?????
I'm giving this a poor only because I liked Billy Joel, otherwise it would be a terrible.
We will not be going back to this venue in a hurry!!!!

We were able to purchase very close parking in a garage directly across the street for an affordable price. The ballpark is large with wide concourses, lots of food choices, and great areas with tables/chairs to eat. It was also very nicely decorated with a great overall ambiance. The BEST part is the retractable roof and air conditioning, which made the entire day at the ballpark SO cool and comfortable. We were just in heaven actually watching a 1:00 ballgame in the summer under such cool and comfortable conditions unlike what we are used to sitting in the hot sun and sweating while feeling uncomfortable. We were amazed! We were also astonished by the super friendly people, both staff and fans that we stopped to chat with. The only thing that gives this place one point off is the huge traffic jam we were stuck in for nearly 30 minutes when trying to leave after the game.

My husband is a huge Astros fan and thought this would be a fun thing to do before Father’s Day weekend. I would recommend doing the All star tour which gives you access to the dugout, media press boxes, team Clubhouse and suite VIP boxes section. The tour guides aren’t great but do provide some neat information about ballpark. They are very pushy though about moving along and didn’t provide sufficient time for photos or offer to take photos for group. With everything being very expensive, we thought this was reasonably priced ($25) per person considering the amount of things we got to see.

I went with my friends to watch the Royal Rumble. My friend got the tickets on a radio contest. I loved our seats even though we were not close to the ringside. We have the two screens in front of us and we were also very close to the restroom and the snacks. Most people park around the stadium. If you get early you can get a nice parking spot for 15 dollars near the stadium. Be sure to take your time and don't take bags with you. There is a lot of security around the stadium and there are very strict with all their policies.

Yes, like other stadiums the distance between the rows is a little tight and the concessions are overpriced. But they keep the entire place clean, there is a pretty good selection of food and beverages from real restaurants, and the place is air-conditioned. My only complaint is that they almost always keep the roof closed even at night. Hey! This is baseball, it's summer, and when the sun goes down it's reasonably pleasant.

I am a die-hard Fenway Park devotee, but need to give Minute Maid its due. This park is not a cookie-cutter ballpark and has some nice and unique features. Most of the Astro fans were quite friendly and welcoming and they had some nice food options and the beers were much less expensive then at Fenway. We will definitely be back....when the Sox are in H-town.

I was there recently on 8/19/2022.
It was a multi bill concert that had
1. Joan Jett and the Blackhearts.
2. Poison
3. Motley Crue Reunion
4. Def Leppard.
The show was great until, Def Leppard. They were horribly boring and lacked the punch that Motley Crue and Poison had. They should never have been the headliner and should have followed Joan Jett and Motley Crue should have been the headliner as they stole the show from Def Leppard. Thousands of people were leaving after the 3rd Def Leppard song. They've lost their magic a long time ago and really need to retire
About the stadium. the seats are narrow and hurt. Not very comfortable in the cheaper seats. However, if you purchase section 200 all the way down to the floor, the seating and comfort is much better.

The highlight of this ballpark is how friendly everyone is. When the roof is closed it is really claustrophobic- concourses too small. The sound is so loud that you cannot hear anything. No opportunity to chat with people. I wish they would tune it down a few decibels. It is uncomfortable. The seats are comfortable and food options are plentiful.

One of my favorite places on earth. I’ve brought my kids once before and that was miserable. But when it’s just me and my husband, I am happy to stay the whole 9 innings. The last game I went to we were sandwiched between 8 people on either side of us, just one row below the nosebleed seats (although, I don’t think there’s a bad seat in the park), we spent $35 on mediocre food and $10 on a large fountain drink with free refills (we got 5 refills/our money’s worth). The game was slow and the Astros lost, but we had such a great time. I love the ambience/energy.

Nothing great of a stadium. Seats are hard and very uncomfortable, food and drinks are outrageously priced!!! Men’s bathroom lines were horrendous and replay board SUCKED!! Hardly ever did they show replays of anything. And and they had all entrances closed off except front so if you was coming from backside of the stadium you had to walk all the way around!! No signage or security to tel you this

Hi, i attended an Astros game recently and had seats in the Crawford Box area. The seats were not that wide and would like to know what areas in the Park have wider seats. I know for sure that Sections 118 - 120 behind home plate have wide seats as I also sat there for an Astros game recently. Can you tell me which other sections have wide seats like sections 118-120?

Going the series vs Blue Jays in April and trying to get my hands on some Diamond Club seats. My husband and I are self proclaimed seat snobs lol. Do they ever go on resale sites? I've been checking daily and nothing so far.

I have to take two wheelchair bound fans to the park. I can only push one chair. Is there help to get us from the parking lot to the seats & back?

If we bring in an empty water bottle, are there filling stations around the park? Thanks in advance!
Written 30 June 2022
I'm unsure about filling stations, but you can bring in your own water, up to one liter per person.
