San Francisco Giants

24 Willie Mays Plaza San Francisco, CA 94107

A Guide to Oracle Park

Opened in 2000, this stadium is celebrated for its classic brick design, intimate feel, and breathtaking views of the San Francisco Bay. It's located in the vibrant SoMa (South of Market) and Mission Bay neighborhoods, making the gameday experience extend well beyond the stadium walls.

Getting to the Ballpark

Parking is limited and expensive. Public transportation is highly recommended and is the most popular way to get to the game.

Public Transit

  • Muni Metro (Within San Francisco)
    The N Judah and T Third Street lines drop you off directly at the 2nd & King station, just steps from the ballpark. This is the easiest option if you're already in the city.
  • Caltrain (From the Peninsula / South Bay)
    The 4th & King station is the end of the line and just a short, five-minute walk (about 1.5 blocks) from the park. Caltrain often runs extra service on game days.
  • BART (From the East Bay / SFO Airport)
    Take BART to the Embarcadero or Montgomery St. stations. From there, you can either walk (a flat, 15-20 minute walk along the beautiful Embarcadero waterfront) or transfer to a Muni Metro train (N or T) for a quick ride.
  • Ferry Service
    This is the most scenic route. (Note: you must buy your ticket in advance)
    • San Francisco Bay Ferry
      Offers direct Giants Ferry service from the Alameda and Oakland (Jack London Square) terminals directly to the Oracle Park Ferry Terminal behind the center-field scoreboard.
    • Golden Gate Ferry
      Provides direct service from the Larkspur terminal in Marin County.

Rideshare

The primary passenger loading zone is on 2nd St between King & Townsend. There is another passenger drop off zone on Third Street (between O'Doul Gate and the Dugout Store). Postgame pickup is extremely congested. It is recommended to walk several blocks away from the ballpark (further into SoMa or towards the Embarcadero) before ordering your ride to avoid heavy traffic and high surge pricing.

Biking

San Francisco is rated as one of the best cities in the country for bike infrastructure. Oracle Park provides several options to make biking to the game an enticing option

  • Valet & Public Racks
    The Giants offer a free, secure, and guarded bicycle valet service along the Portwalk (underneath the right-field foul pole), near the O'Doul Gate. Public bike racks are available along the walkway between the Marina Gate and the 2nd and King gates, with space for over 100 bicycles.
  • Bike Share
    Public bike share docking stations are located at 3rd & King, 2nd & Townsend, and China Basin Park

Driving & Parking

If you must drive, be prepared for heavy traffic and high parking prices. The official park lot, Lot A / Pier 48, is located south of the ballpark and requires a pre-paid pass. Numerous independent garages are in the area, but prices surge on game days.

Taxi

There are four official taxi stands located near the ballpark where cabs queue after games

  • East side of 2nd Street (between King & Townsend)
  • West side of 2nd Street (between King & Townsend)
  • West side of 2nd Street (between Townsend & Brannan)
  • East side of 3rd Street (between King & Townsend)

Pregame Festivities

  • (Inside the Park): A high end modern pub located on the ground floor of the ballpark (formerly Public House).

Concessions

Oracle Park is famous for its food, which goes far beyond typical stadium fare. One note, make sure you build in extra time to get to the concession stands. The concourse is fairly narrow and can quickly get congested. This caution also applies to lines at some of the most famous stands (see Crazy Crab'z Sandwich) which can cause you to miss multiple innings of the game. One suggestion to ease these concerns is to get into the park early and get food before the game starts

  • Gilroy Garlic Fries
    The most iconic item served at multiple stands with the main option being Gilroy Garlic Fries locations on the Promenade Level. You can also find them at Golden Gate Greats and The Derby Grill
