Mercedes-Benz Stadium in downtown Atlanta continues to set the bar when it comes to world-class sports venues. The stadium has lowered prices on some select concessions, AtlantaFi has learned.
This is the second time over the course of a year that Mercedes-Benz Stadium has cut food prices.
In September 2018 just in time for the Atlanta Falcons football season, the stadium did price reductions on beverages and food. As a result, Mercedes-Benz Stadium has sparked a downward cost trend among the league.
How much does food cost at Mercedes-Benz Stadium?
The latest round of price cuts at MBS was announced in early March 2019. The stadium says that whole-dollar pricing reductions on premium items have been implemented. As a result, the savings are all one dollar each, amounting to 11% reduction in food prices. They are as follows:
- Hot Dog: $1.50 (was $2)
- Pretzel Bites: $4.50 (was $5)
- ATL Bud Burger: $7.50 (was $8)
- Ice Cream Waffle Cone: $4.50 (was $5)
- Chips and Salsa: $2.50 (was $3)
“Arthur Blank has repeatedly challenged us to find ways to lower prices again to further improve a food and beverage experience that already ranked number one in the NFL and MLS in our debut season,” said Steve Cannon, AMB Group CEO. “We’ve listened to our fans from the beginning and these new prices are a result of that feedback. Arthur is going to keep challenging us to go lower and we’re going to keep listening to the fans, so this is probably not the last one.”
Here is a chart to help you see Mercedes-Benz Stadium food prices

Stadium officials pride themselves on “fan first pricing,” which means that dining options have their most loyal customers in mind. As a result, from Blank on down, executives see the Mercedes-Benz Stadium food and beverage program as one of the amenities that enhance entertainment.
Listen to a stadium executive talk about what went into deciding Mercedes Benz-Stadium food prices:

With the closing of Cafe + Velo next month, another coffee shop, Docent Coffee,has taken its place onEdgewood Ave. SE in Atlanta.
Docent Coffee also has launched a successful Kickstarter, to get the business up and running in the city. The idea behind the establishment is to support local artists in their craft by creating both a physical and e-commerce portal.
Docent Coffee opens on Edgewood Avenue in Atlanta
The aim of Docent Coffee is to “bring some seriously good coffee, food, and art to the city and beyond!”
The company explains the meaning of its name like this: “As our name implies, Docent is here to guide folks to something new, exciting, and hopefully unique in coffee, as well as art. We are deeply passionate about both, but also understand that both are entirely subjective experiences. Yes, we will probably be guilty of some of the cliches ourselves, but we certainly aren’t going to rely on them to have you like us, our coffee, or what we are trying to accomplish. And even though we may try our best, you may end up not liking it…and that’s ok. Your coffee should be enjoyable to you because you actually enjoy it…and we hope you enjoy ours!”
The coffee shop will be not only a place to get the best roasts in Atlanta, but also a fine art marketplace. The establishment’s website has several pieces already posted and ready to be bought. There is also some art available for wholesale.
Where is Docent Coffee located in Atlanta?
Docent Coffee is located at 381 Edgewood Ave SE. Here is a map to help you find the place.
The city has a generous scattering of coffee shops around the Perimeter. Atlanta coffee shops can be found in each quadrant of the city, trading on their respective environments to offer something truly unique to the community.
Starbucks certainly has a foothold here, but so do small mom-and-pop businesses like Brash Coffee, Ebrik Coffee and Land of a Thousand Hills. Much like the Atlanta restaurants scene, the coffee movement in ATL is alive and percolating, just like we like our coffee.
