Summary
The concept of stadium food is evolving across the nation. What was once a simple selection of nachos, peanuts, and hot dogs has transformed into a diverse, flavorful, and even upscale dining experience. Oklahoma City’s Chesapeake Energy Arena has certainly elevated the food offerings. Renowned chefs from Levy Restaurants and Savor Catering have introduced a wide array of new dishes and beverages, and further enhancements are on the horizon. Thus, when you visit the arena, perhaps to catch a Thunder game, here are a few offerings that promise to delight your palate.
Note: Restaurants open an hour and a half prior to events and are available exclusively for event ticket holders.
Jack Daniels Old No. 7 Club
Upon entry through the grand foyer, you will find yourself on the southwest side of the arena, just a short distance from the Jack Daniels Old No. 7 Club. This casual bar and restaurant offers delicious options such as chicken wings, loaded fries, and multi-layer nachos. While enjoying your meal, you can sip on a refreshing draft beer or cocktail. The patio area is open for 90 minutes before and after Thunder games, although you must be 21 or older to access the club or patio during that time. For your convenience, the patio can only be accessed through the club’s main entrance.
Budweiser Brew House Carvery
Located directly across from the Old No. 7 Club, the Budweiser Brew House Carvery presents a more refined dining experience. Guests can indulge in full buffets featuring carved meats, potatoes, salads, and fresh bread. Although the menu changes nightly, you may find delectable options such as pit ham with smoked applejack glaze, hickory wood-smoked prime rib with burgundy mushrooms, smoked lobster mac & cheese, or tilapia Meunier with lemon herb butter sauce. For those who prefer a quicker meal, sandwiches with one side are also available for takeout.
Budweiser Brew House
Also situated on the concourse level, the Budweiser Brew House serves as a quality steakhouse. In addition to traditional “bar food” such as nachos and burgers, guests can savor armadillo eggs (breaded peppers stuffed with cheese and brisket), filet mignon, grilled shrimp, salmon, prime rib, and more. Notably, for those with reservations, the Budweiser Brew House opens two and a half hours before an event. For reservations, call (405) 601-4459.
Private Courtside Club, Gastropub, and Executive Boardroom
At Chesapeake Energy Arena, you can collaborate with chefs and hospitality teams to organize a private social event, including everything from hors d’oeuvres to innovative cuisine. The executive chef is available to create a bespoke menu for your event, wedding, or game day gathering.
Private spaces are available, ranging from the Courtside Club to the Executive Boardroom. The Courtside Club, located on the Event Level, features a cozy fireplace and three full-service bar areas.
The GastroPub area is located on the Cox Club Level and provides stunning city views. This pub area boasts two full-service bars, each equipped with TVs for your viewing pleasure.

Fear not; traditional favorites remain available. Throughout the arena, concession stands and carts offer all the classic staples, alongside delicious options like pizza, boneless wings, gourmet candy, wraps, salads, baked potatoes, and much more.
