There’s not much quite like the view from the top of a ballpark. However, some of those views are greater than others.Now, you could go online and look for somebody’s opinion on all 30 parks. But that person could be biased about a specific team, and who’s to say that what they value in a ballpark will match up with what you appreciate?The point is that getting one person’s perspective might not be enough. Instead, we should look at the greater collective, and what better place to go than Yelp. Fans are unafraid to air out a ballpark’s dirty laundry on that website. So in a sense, the fans writing reviews there might offer the most honest reviews online, and that makes for a tremendous ranking.Here’s every MLB ballpark ranked based on their Yelp rating.

Explaining the rankings

These rankings are pretty self explanatory, but given that there are only 50 possible ratings a ballpark can have, there are a few that will have the same rating. In order to make a decision on which one is superior, we went with the one that had more total reviews. Figure the more reviews a ballpark has, the more that ballpark moved spectators to write reviews, thereby giving it the edge.

Furthermore, the A’s and Tampa Bay Rays are not currently playing at their permanent home fields. We will be using Sutter Health Park for the A’s, as their stadium in Vegas has not opened yet and Sutter Health is the field that the team will play in for the next few years. As for the Rays, we will be using Tropicana Field for these rankings, since the team plans on returning to Tropicana in 2026.

MLB ballpark rankings based on Yelp reviews

30. Texas Rangers, Globe Life Field (3.5)

Bee D. writes, “This place is a mess. Untrained staff, zero consistency, and absolutely no regard for customer experience. Whether you’re VIP or general admission, expect chaos and confusion.” − 1 star

Mike B. writes, “Absolutely hands down the worst MLB stadium I have ever been to, and I have been to over 15. The food choices are pathetic. The layout to get around the stadium is pathetic. No one knows how to get from level to level, and you have to walk a country mile or walk up 3 flights of stairs to get anywhere. I would never give this place a time of my money again!!!” − 1 star

29. Tampa Bay Rays, Tropicana Field (3.6)

Kang S. writes, “One would think that a team with the widely acknowledged worst stadium in MLB and attendance near the bottom of the league would try to make things fun and easy for the fans. Not so much. First off, you can only buy tickets online and/or through the annoying MLB Ballpark app. So if you show up at the stadium without having done this, it’s a real pain because their so-called staff don’t really know how the app works and they apparently lack the bandwidth to handle a large volume as evidenced by the fact that I had to go in and out of the app four times to purchase my ticket. At least it was cheap; in fact, some tickets are cheaper than beers inside the park!” − 2 stars

Rebecca F. writes, “Five stars for the stadium itself, two stars for the food service. While the food we had was delicious, I missed 1.5 innings of the game because of their requirement to use the kiosks for ordering. It seemed very disorganized.” − 3 stars

28. Miami Marlins, LoanDepot Park (3.6)

Evelyn M. writes, “I personally like the stadium but the parking situation is awful. They need to be more organized. I arrived to the stadium on time did the game but it took me almost an hour to park.” − 3 stars

Anysia S. writes, “As the wife of an avid MLB fan, I have been to more than my share of stadiums. There is nothing good, special, or different about this one.” − 2 stars

27. Toronto Blue Jays, Rogers Centre (3.6)

Elizabeth S. writes, “Loved this ballpark. Seats in 100 level definitely need that renovation they are doing in the off season but the park was clean, welcoming and easy to navigate. Staff was friendly. Can’t wait to go back.” − 4 stars

Sunil R. writes, “Came here for the final game of the Red Sox and Blue Jays series. It was super fun and the atmosphere and ambiance were great. I wish the Blue Jays had pulled off a win but they lost steam towards the end and the lost. We still had a great time. It was easy to get in and out of the stadium and everything was well designed and planned for. Great location right by the CN tower and Union Station.” − 4 stars

26. Athletics, Sutter Health Park (3.8)

Michael J. writes, “Attended our second A’s game last night this season. Being a native of Sacramento, I was excited when the Athletics announced they would play a couple seasons there. I hoped they would bring a bit of the big leagues to the experience. But they have not been able to elevate the game day experience to attending games at this flawed minor league facility. There are a plethora of issues. The scoreboards are subpar. Entry is limited to two gates, which is particularly problematic departing at the games conclusion. As well, exiting the unpaved parking lots is poorly organized and takes significantly too long, and that is for a “crowd” of only 9,000, many of which departed early or parked elsewhere other than the main lot.” − 2 stars

Joey Y. writes, “The security upfront is problematic. Maybe sutter health needs to hire better security? I forgot my clear bag and stuffed everything into my crossbody bag/fanny pack. It was maybe a cm off the bag limit if you don’t take into consideration the corners that stretches out to the strap. But the person there did count that and said my bag was too big. Fine. I dropped almost everything off at the car besides my essentials. I return and I see multiple people allowed to walk in with tote size bags that aren’t clear. Doesn’t make much sense.” − 3 stars

25. Atlanta Braves, Truist Park (3.8)

Brian H. writes, “This is a solid baseball stadium. Very clean and beers and food are a plenty here. A little pricey but what do you expect? Sitting by first base is a great view and if you bring a small bag please note they will probably tell you to take it back to your car or put it in a locker which costs $11. Overall a fun place to come with friends and family.” − 4 stars

Liz G. writes, “Food options are subpar within the stadium, with few options for vegetarians. No diverse craft beer options unlike Mercedes Benz and prices are sky high. Alcohol compliance enforcers roam the stadium harassing visitors nonstop, aggressively checking my ID on average 3 times a game when I am 23 years old. Limited affordable parking options when there is no other option than to arrive by car. The chop house service is terrible for the seats you’d pay extra for. Very disappointed in this ‘new and improved’ stadium.” − 2 stars

24. Arizona Diamondbacks, Chase Field (3.8)

Liv M. writes, “A beautiful stadium! We went to see my Dodgers play against the D-Backs during Mother’s Day weekend. The stadium is quite beautiful, loved the open ceiling and large panels that open to allow air to flow through the stadium. The variety of food options, drinks, and bar choices was awesome. The service was friendly.” − 4 stars

Skyler P. writes, “Overall, had a great experience here. Got to watch the opening day game and enjoy some great food. Found some good barbeque like a pulled pork sandwich and a loaded potato. Both were delicious. The barbeque nachos in the helmet were not great. Chips were soggy, not much meat, and it was not filled up that much. I definitely saw other people with helmets stacked high, while ours was not even filled halfway. I was hoping to find some soft serve, but couldn’t figure out where it was so opted for some Coldstone which was nice too.” − 4 stars

23. Washington Nationals, Nationals Park (3.8)

Axel R. writes, “It’s a beautiful ballpark, worthy of our nation’s capital. But be ready to receive a pounding on concession stands. Everything is very expensive. Also, make sure you don’t bring a big purse or backpack. They’ll make you pay $15 to rent a locker to leave your belongings.” − 3 stars

Dean P. writes, “Overall, pretty good. There was nothing too special about this stadium that stands out from the others. It was pretty dirty, but what do you expect? The food wasn’t too expensive, and our seats were nice. I would definitely go again to watch some baseball.” − 4 stars

22. Los Angeles Dodgers, Dodger Stadium (3.8)

Tony Y. writes, “I love LA, but what i don’t love is traffic and Dodger Stadium is no exception. While it nice that they have a lot of parking locations/lots, people seem to get bottled neck coming in or out. Best thing about this stadium? The Dodgers and community. You’d be impressed with the views and history. It’s always a good time at the games and though the price has steadily increase over the years, I would definitely try to make it out to one game and soak in the lights.” − 4 stars

Pedro G. writes, “Man, Dodger Stadium is always a fun place to get out to and catch a game. I just wish the food and beer weren’t so pricey though it would be great if they made it more affordable for everyone. The restrooms are spacious, but they could definitely use an update. One thing I really don’t like is the bathroom setup. The faucets are too low, and it feels like you end up touching everyone else’s dirty water just trying to wash your hands, they need to raise them. Other than that, the experience is awesome. There are so many friendly workers around who help guide you and make the visit enjoyable.” − 3 stars

21. Houston Astros, Daikin Park (3.9)

Jennifer G. writes, “Giveaways at the ball park this year are like not knowing what the secret code is for a hideout. You are there more than two hours before the game starts and still not receiving the promotion. Even with boxes of giveaways left, they are either set aside for others, or if you go in the entrance that doesn’t have the item you can’t get one at another entrance as re-entry is not allowed.” − 2 stars

Levi A. writes, “Great ball park. But the security has the biggest power trips imaginable. Also, there’s a nasty lady, who is one of the security guards, who cussed me out because I forgot my jacket and I had to go back down to get it.” − 3 stars

20. Los Angeles Angels, Angel Stadium (3.9)

Mary R. writes, “I mean gross! When your preteen boy that eats everything put in front of him won’t eat the food…you know it’s bad!” − 2 stars

Casey R. writes, “The parking situation here is a nightmare. Especially when leaving. The fans here are pretty lackluster compared to Dodger games. I came here when they played the Yankees a week ago and there were as many Yankee fans as Angels fans. You would never see that at Dodger Stadium no matter who they were playing.” − 3 stars

19. Chicago White Sox, Rate Field (4.0)

Janet M. writes, “As a die-hard Cubs fan, I wasn’t sure what to expect at Guaranteed Rate Field, but I was pleasantly surprised! We came for the home opener to celebrate a family member’s birthday, and it ended up being a fantastic time. Not as much as Wrigley but a good time.” − 5 stars

Gerald H. writes, “Arguably the most boring, bland park I have been to. Visited on a Friday night for a game in mid-May. Really wasn’t much to the park – very boring – straightforward and nothing to it.” − 2 stars

18. New York Yankees, Yankee Stadium (4.0)

Dale C. writes, “Huge concrete ball park. I would have loved to see the old park. This was good just not what I was expecting from the Yankees. If you were coming for the game we tried to see all of the museums and statues but it was closed. Bummer. Probably wouldn’t return. Nothing was remarkable. Except baseball.” − 3 stars

Danielle V. writes, “Yankees stadium is an okay stadium. They pride themselves on history, which shows. It’s not a very flashy stadium.” − 4 stars

17. Colorado Rockies, Coors Field (4.1)

Angelique F. writes, “Arena is clean, safe and employees are great for the most part. Wish they had more then one food stop that offered gluten-free as the one they have is disorganized, and honestly not good. The bread tastes old and the chicken and such do not look appealing so passed on that.” − 3 stars

Savanna R. writes, “Coors field is fun from every angle. Our favorite part is getting there early for the $3 beers at the rooftop bar. The concessions are always great and reasonably priced. The tickets are also incredibly cheap…can’t beat it!” − 4 stars

16. New York Mets, Citi Field (4.1)

Peter M. writes, “I want to thank the Mets for making various improvements throughout the ball park and for giving me a few opportunities to attend some games. The crowds are good this year with the Soto signing and Pete mashing. Great large Jumbotron and video production/entertainment. The concessions folks and ticket takers and greeters seem more cheerful these days and the ball park is fan friendly. Let’s keep this going!” − 4 stars

Andrew B. writes, “Citi Field is very nice, the venue has enough outside room and plenty of access to a variety in choices for transportation within walking distance. The appearance of the stadium is classic and it’s certainly functional. I liked the staff but many were not well informed about the event happening and even gave incorrect information several times.” − 4 stars

15. Kansas City Royals, Kauffman Stadium (4.2)

Daryl T. writes, “Great experience at Kaufman. Great park lots to do. Easy parking. Hoping for a royals win. Food is the only thing that stopped me from eating it a 5 star. Popcorn had a greasy film much different than movie popcorn. Still a great family fun experience.” − 4 stars

Leslie W. writes, “Still one of the most fan friendly and amenity-filled ballparks in MLB. Huge ballpark parking lots. And at about $15 a car, it’s one of the cheapest. They have lot attendants that will get carts for folks who need a little help getting to the stadium.” − 4 stars

14. Detroit Tigers, Comerica Park (4.2)

Amy B. writes, “As someone who grew up going to Tiger Stadium and now, Comerica Park, this is a great baseball field. It’s in the heart of downtown Detroit close to many attractions. The park has many good features and most every single seat is a great view.” − 4 stars

Alan N. writes, “This is one of my favorite ballparks – if not my absolute favorite. Very family friendly. Great food selection. Carousel and a ferris wheel. I came for 4 games here. The most amazing time. I had a gyro, elephant ear, several local beers, and ice cream.” − 5 stars

13. Seattle Mariners, T-Mobile Park (4.2)

Abel M. writes, “I love the industrial look to the entire park. They really double down on the theme and pulled it off perfectly. Everything looked pretty new and clean. We had the pizza, the ice cream nachos and the what up dog. No complaints whatsoever on the food. The pizza here was better than what I’ve had at most chains. All of the people working for the park were very kind and helpful and the museum is a nice unique touch. I would definitely return.” − 5 stars

Chuck M. writes, “We had a wonderful time at the ballgame. The stadium is beautiful. Our seats were on the club level, great unobstructed view. Parking was easy, going into the stadium parking structure…although we got lost trying to find our car when it was time to leave. All in all we had a great time. If I was to make a recommendation it would be to bring your own foods and not rely upon the stadium vendors. The cost of food was insanely expensive.” − 4 stars

12. San Diego Padres, Petco Park (4.2)

Kalvin P. writes, “Petco park is so cool, and a really great San Diego venue. I’ve only been here a couple times, and most times, visiting someplace for the first time is always the best (when it’s some place you grow to like, or are impressed with), but with Petco Park, it has been like that every time.” − 5 stars

Timothy N. writes, “Big Padres fan here. We are pretty lucky to have such a beautiful park. And I’m super lucky because sometimes my boss gives me tickets to see the game! It’s a good time rooting for the Padres and lots of action when watching the game.” − 4 stars

11. Cleveland Guardians, Progressive Field (4.3)

Adam H. writes, “Though I’ve not likely rated most of them in these annals, I’ve visited many baseball parks in my 50-some-odd trips around the sun. Progressive Field ranks as one of my favorites … right up there with PNC Park (Pirates), The Ballpark at Arlington (previous home of the Texas Rangers), Camden Yards (Baltimore), Wrigley Field, and too many Minor League and independent parks to mention.” − 4 stars

Tyson N. writes, “Highly recommend the high seats! We were in Section 561 and the view was stunning. The facility was very clean, and it was easy to get around between sections. The weather was perfect, the game was entertaining, and it wasn’t overcrowded, which made for an all-around great experience.” − 5 stars

10. Cincinnati Reds, Great American Ball Park (4.3)

Garrett B. writes, “Fun and exciting ball park with great food and drink options. Tons of restaurants and bars right outside the stadium in a very walkable city.” − 4 stars

Yvette K. writes, “Great stadium fantastic fans! Lots of food options! Great family atmosphere. Surrounded by bars and restaurants in case you want to avoid stadium prices. It’s definitely a win-win here!” − 5 stars

9. Philadelphia Phillies, Citizens Bank Park (4.3)

Kathleen F. writes, “This is only my second MLB park that I’ve been to so my experience is limited. That being said I thought there were several nice amenities in the park. There were a good number of food stands with various choices, reflecting Philly heritage. The various tables were nice to spread out and eat prior to the game starting. I thought the bathrooms could have used some additional lighting or possibly more airflow.” − 4 stars

Reed B. writes, “Citizens Bank Park is a nice modern city ballpark with friendly staff, bad lines and not so great parking. The arrival experience wasn’t the best. As first timers to the ballpark we didn’t know the parking situation and with bad traffic, very few directional signs which often contradicted each other we ended up being late for the first pitch even though we arrived with ample time.” − 4 stars

8. Milwaukee Brewers, American Family Field (4.3)

Stephanie H. writes, “Got to love American Family Field! The food selection has grown so much, adding The Food Truck Alley and the 3rd Street Market Hall Annex! It also still has your classic baseball food….you can’t go wrong! Cheering for the Brewers is the best! Go Brew Crew!” − 5 stars

Elliott L. writes, “Nice stadium. Grew up going here and it is everything a stadium should be. The food is hit or miss and the racing sausages are great.” − 4 stars

7. Minnesota Twins, Target Field (4.4)

Matthew J. writes, “One of the best stadiums I’ve ever been in. Lots of food options and easy to navigate. The facilities are well kept and you can’t beat the craft beer options.” − 5 stars

Sara C. writes, “Target Field is one of the best outdoor venues I’ve been to. I know it’s the field of the Minnesota Twins, but my experience there was for a concert. The seats were actually pretty wide and comfortable in terms of the stadium seating I’ve experienced. There isn’t really a bad seat in the whole place because they all slope down to where the field/stage is at, with no real ‘obstructed view’ seats that I saw (for our show at least).” − 5 stars

6. St. Louis Cardinals, Busch Stadium (4.4)

Alex T. writes, “The party suites were some of the most well serviced, clean, and amazing seats that I could have asked for. Amazing value. Came here for my brothers bachelor weekend and this was a really amazing start to the entire thing. Premium liquors and hot dogs and nachos and desserts that would typically run you 60 dollars anyways, so might as well get unlimited with an amazing view!” − 5 stars

Kyle B. writes, “Very nice stadium. Spacious, semi-modern, with a lot of history. Zero references to Mark McGwire. But it has an AMAZING back shot of the skyline.” − 4 stars

5. Chicago Cubs, Wrigley Field (4.4)

Kealy C. writes, “I love Wrigley Field! It truly is a place that has unmatched energy. The comradery of the fans and view of city is absolutely amazing. If you are doing anything in Chicago, it must be going to a Cubs game. It honestly doesn’t matter who they are playing, you are going to have a high quality Chicago experience.” − 5 stars

Ed S. writes, “I have been attending baseball games at Wrigley Field since the early 1980’s. It is such an iconic ballpark. Even if you are not a Cubs fan, you need to see a game here. There’s so much history to take in.” − 5 stars

4. Baltimore Orioles, Oriole Park at Camden Yards (4.5)

Kenneth K. writes, “Amazing ballpark! It feels so classic. I have been to so many great stadiums that this ranks in the middle but it is still amazing. Definitely beats Nationals Park but took me a few times to agree. I have gotten seats all over the park including Splash Zone. I look forward to hopefully going back next week.” − 5 stars

Dale C. writes, “It is a beautiful ball park. My wife and I love baseball and are trying to see all 30 parks. This is one of the most beautiful parks in MLB. There’s several of them but his one is close to the top. I would watch games here regularly if I lived in Baltimore.” − 5 stars

3. Boston Red Sox, Fenway Park (4.5)

Fred L. writes, “Simply put Fenway is a Mecca of Baseball. This is one of the last remaining historic ball parks in the U.S. and is packed with history and culture. If you visit during the season (April till September and sometimes October), game days are literally an experience and a must do on any Boston check lists. The atmosphere is incredible no matter when you see a game there, but really kicks up a notch during the playoffs.” − 5 stars

Linda E. writes, “This place needs no review. This historical baseball field is something everyone should visit while in Boston. On this occasion, I went for the tour which starts every hour. It lasts about one hour, and costs $20. It is well worth it as it gives you access to places you wouldn’t normally have. I definitely recommend the tour and can’t wait until I catch an actual game.” − 5 stars

2. San Francisco Giants, Oracle Park (4.5)

Alvin Jarod A. writes, “Food 4.5/5 . Drinks 5/5. Service 5/5. Ambiance 5/5. This place is amazing! I see why a lot of baseball fans say you got to come to Oracle Park. Really fun environment and stadium bathrooms were clean.” − 5 stars

Tiffany C. writes, “Just an overall fun time coming here. Great views, good food for a baseball stadium and chill vibes. I love a weekday night game or early afternoon weekend game with high up seats. Mainly there for the good views and catching up with friends. A spring/summer staple! Crab sandwich and garlic fries and my go-to’s! And the Ghirardelli Sunday is a classic too.” − 5 stars

1. Pittsburgh Pirates, PNC Park (4.6)

Kelly T. writes, “I was in town for the weekend and one of my good friends was able to get us some great seats for the Friday night game against Philly. The stadium is beautiful with great views of the city. We were on the second level with access to all of the indoor amenities. There are so many food options with so much variety. Great place to see a game.” − 5 stars

Maria M. writes, “We got cheap seats on the first baseline, and even though they were cheap, the view of the city was fantastic, and the game was fun. The facility had good access to food and restrooms, and my family had a great time!” − 5 stars
