NH Fisher Cats Baseball

This is a very nice minor league baseball park. The Fisher Cats are the Toronto Blue Jays AA team. They make all the announcements in both English and French. The best, non-​suite tickets in the place are $ 12. Beers are $ 6. The only negative for us was the short, brown haired bartender behind the Sam Adams bar and grille out above the left field wall. She is inattentive and unfriendly. Someone should let her know that bartenders work for tips. She single handedly cost the Fisher Cats a star. There are also tables outside on a patio behind the left field wall — great spot to watch the game.

Got to game and sat down to eat dinner at 5:00 as game tatted at 5:30 and told at 7:15 that they decided to shut down kitchen because they ran out of food. I placed my food order at 5:20 and never got a thing. This is the worst, avoid it at all costs. They are lucky that the even got a star.

My husband first introduced me to the world of minor league baseball via the NH Fishercats back when they were at Gill Stadium (one of our very first dates). I immediately fell in love with the feel and intimacy of the experience. When they moved over to the new stadium (currently Delta Dental Stadium) we of course followed.
The Stadium Itself: Beautifully designed. Clean. Easy to get in and out of.
The Ticket Prices: You can’t beat them, honestly. With the most expensive box seat going for $ 12, you can’t complain. And they even have a special where you buy 4 tickets and they’ll give you a voucher for 4 hot dogs, 4 bags of chips, 4 sodas free of charge.
The Concessions: Your basic stadium food groups are represented. Hot Dogs, Burgers, Pizza, Fries, Peanuts, Popcorn, Cotton Candy, Ice cream in a tiny baseball cap, etc. But then there are the surprises… like Chowder, fried seafood and fried dough. It’s all fairly reasonable, too. Comparing prices here to that of prices in Fenway makes this place seem like a steal. Personally, while here, I always order Angry Orchard which is fairly priced at $ 4.50 per bottle. Not bad.
The Seats: Not a bad one in the house (unless of course you are on the first base line during sunset and the sun in blazing in your eyes. Haha. I was fortunate enough to win a luxury suite last night from NH​.Com. It was GORGEOUS and the view was amazing. I’d never be able to get one on my own so it was a nice prize!
Parking: Parking around the stadium varies. There are lots you can park in for about $ 10 and if you’re lucky enough you can score on-​street parking using quarters or a credit/​debit card fairly cheap. If you live in-​town you can even walk to the stadium. It’s a beautiful area.
The Staff: Always friendly, helpful and attentive! Two thumbs up!
All in all I would definitely recommend going to see a game here. Between the family entertainment and games between innings to the actual game itself it’s always a good time.

Meow! We love the Fisher Cats and their stadium. Parking is close by, tickets are affordable, and the team is great. Food is a little too expensive and uninventive, but you’ll be able to get a hot dog, pretzel, beer, and souvenir ice cream helmet. Fungo and Slider, the mascots, are awesome! They walk around the stands and are available for pictures.

It doesn’t get any better than this.
What if I told you that you could take a family of four to a baseball game, have really good seats, and not have to worry about profanity or an unclean ballpark for just $ 24? That’s the Fisher Cats in a nutshell.
I’ve been to baseball stadiums all around America, from Fenway to Wrigley, and this ballpark ties with Oriole Park at Camden Yards for best ballpark in America in my mind. The stadium is always spotless (especially the bathrooms, a HUGE thing for me). The entertainment in between innings is great for kids and adults enjoy it, too. Food is reasonably priced for a ballpark and, no matter the inning or the score, the ‘Cats put on a great show. It’s just good baseball.
This upcoming season will be my second as a season ticket holder. I can think of no other way I want to spend my summers than behind home plate cheering our boys on. I suggest you join me, too.

I enjoyed catching a Fisher Cats game while in Manchester. The stadium is nice, although not spectacular or unique like other stadiums in the Cats’ league, but at least bugs don’t die all over you during games like in Harrisburg. We were staying in the Hilton Garden Inn, it was very convenient to walk over a take in a game. We ate dinner at the Sam Adams Pub in left field. It was really good and affordable as well. Two burgers with fries and two beers was pretty much the same price as at Applebee’s or other such restaurants. The waiter also kept refilling our complimentary popcorn, so that was cool. Definitely a nice way to spend a summer evening.

Yay’s — affordable tickets, REALLY awesome fireworks display, lovely stadium, river views, enthusiastic crowd of kids and big kids, and that perfect patio bar where you can sit sheltered from the elements and watch some good AA baseball. Nice beer selection, too!
Meh’s — food not so great, and service at said patio bar, pretty bad. Gross bathrooms.
Boo’s — the crowd games they play are really pretty lame, the folks at Portland with their Lobster tosses are much better, and the «spirit team»…mm. yeah. If I wanted «annoying shrill and shrieky girl» and «totally disinterested guy» to lead the crowd I’d stay in Boston.

Love it. Best minor league stadium I have ever seen. Quality organization puts fan service and experience first.
Every year they add something new — cant wait to see what it is next year.

I’ve had the oppertunity to attend 2 Fisher Cats game’s since moving to NH & have had a great experiance. Very nice stadium (Night & day over the SJ Giants 60 – 70 yr. old stadium I was used to going to). Decent food & comfie seat’s (& I can’t say that too often). Look forward to future games.

What a great time! The seats are inexpensive, topping out at $ 12/​ticket., and the seats are nice. The Sam Adams Brewpub is a nice place to hang if you get to the game early, but there is a very large variety of food choices available. I went to the Stonyfield Farm «heathy» stand and bought a ham sandwich on foccacia with field greens and mustard as well as a bottle of water, and I paid just over $ 9. It was delicious and not too expensive for ballpark fare.
I do wish that the score were easier to see. The score isn’t displayed on the centrally located videoboard but on old-​school «home/​away» scoreboards on the very ends of the seating sections. And how about letting us know how many balls and/​or strikes each batter has? Even the hardest-​core baseball fan isn’t paying rapt attention from the very beginning to the very end of the game.
The park is so easy to reach coming from south of Manchester: take Exit 5 and turn right on Granite Street, and then right on Commercial Street. Parking is usually around $ 10 a few blocks from the stadium, but on a pleasant summer evening (goodness knows how few of those we get in NH!), don’t be afraid to park a little farther away and walk. It’ll save time sitting in traffic.

The AA affiliate for the Toronto Blue Jays, NH Fisher Cats baseball offers up a high quality product at a low cost. Food is reasonable. A great experience for any baseball fan, family or group. Merely, an hour North of Boston, you could catch the Portland Sea Dogs when they are in the area, the AA affiliate of the Boston Red Sox.
I will defeinitely be back!

For minor league baseball this team is an excellent value. It’s high quality double-​A baseball (you can see many players at this level jump right up to the majors at times). Seats are all $ 12 or under and it’s a beautiful and clean park. VERY family friendly and the kids will have an excellent time regardless with all the cheap food and ice cream they can handle.
All games have games have interesting things in between innings like tracking bingo (based on if a player singles or triples etc). Prizes are pretty good if you are a winner. A couple of places to sit and eat away from the seats and they have a playground in the park to entertain bored kids.
Highly recommend is the premium box seats at $ 12 as you can be under the roof in case of passing showers or a hot blazing sun. Fireworks and giveaways depending on which game as well.

Minor league baseball is a treasure and the Fisher Cats are no exception. The quality of play is high but the value for the money is very high. During my last game, I sat behind home plate for $ 12. This makes for a family friendly atmosphere where one does not have to feel they had to put a second mortgage on their home.

Fun local sporting event for families. My only complaint is that is gets incredibly hot there in the sun and there never seems to be a breeze, even though it’s next to the river.

Went to my first minor league game here day before the 4^th of July and it was awesome. Had 3 fireworks shows going on at the same time basically: One in Manchester, the park’s fireworks, and another city to our right of the stadium. We met a nice couple here who were locals and the it was a great game. The stadium is clean and had everything to offer as far as food. We got seats dirt cheap right behind home plate and couldn’t have asked for a better night.

Guaranteed a great time! The tickets are cheap, the food is great, and they are a ton of fun to attend — especially when there are fireworks shows afterward! I was lucky enough to attend a game where their player sponsored by D’Angelo’s got a double, which merited everyone in the stadium a coupon for a free quesadilla (which was delicious and even better because it was free!) I would recommend a Fishercats game to anyone… old or young

This place as good as it gets in the minor leagues. We had a hookup from one of the other teams in the same ownership group as the Fisher Cats. We got our tickets for free and were given a tour of the stadium. Everyone was super-​friendly and we were treated extremely well.
One of the cool aspects of the park is the Hilton Garden Inn in left-​center field with rooms that overlook the field. They also have a manual scoreboard in left field. Concessions are pretty standard but one has a New England flair with clams, lobster rolls, shrimp, and chowder.

When the New Haven Ravens moved to Manchester after the 2003 season, the ownership announced a new nickname for the team that they thought would be a hit — The New Hampshire Primaries — a nickname that featured two of my favorite baseball logos ever. The first featured a donkey and an elephant holding baseball bats and a very unique wordmark (
) and the second has Uncle Sam calling his shot over the outline of the state of New Hampshire (
).
Unfortunately, the name was not a hit. In fact, some very vocal, shortsighted people in Manchester freaked out and within days the team announced that it would be scrapping the Primaries name and would hold a name-​the-​team contest. A month later, the vote was in and the public chose the New Hampshire Fisher Cats as their new nickname. Awww… Democracy.
For those of us that loved those logos, it was a bitter pill to swallow. I for one wanted a cap with the Uncle Sam logo on it so bad. But the logos went into hiding and it didn’t look good that they would ever see the light of day let alone have merchandise available for purchase.
But in 2007, someone saw the light. The owners have always loved the Primaries package and since the New Hampshire presidential primaries were approaching, they gladly dusted off the name and logos and for one night only played as the team that they were always meant to be.
It must have been a popular promotion because this season they produced an official New Era on-​field cap that features the Uncle Sam logo and is available to purchase on their website. It has the current «NH» in red, white and blue on the front and Uncle Sam on the side (
).
I just had to get one. With shipping, the hat ran me $ 31.00, but it’s such a nice looking cap, I’m thinking about buying a second one because I’m definitely going to wear this one out, and probably pretty quick.
So five stars for bringing back the Primaries — I can’t fault them for giving up the name when the public backlash was so strong — and four stars for shipping my order quickly, even though they got the address wrong and I had to wait a couple extra days while UPS figured it out.

It’s great to see that Manchester finally has a great stadium and to be called the home to a professional baseball team, and built right along the banks of the Merrimack River is cool. But I’m sick of how sports has become so commercialized, as evident by the ridiculous name they gave the New Hampshire Fisher Cats stadium, called
Stadium. Whatever happened to nostalgia?
I can just see myself now telling someone, «I’m heading to Manchester now to see the Cats play at
Stadium. Lame! They couldn’t come up with something better than that? Something with a little more flare? Cool stadium. Terrible name. I guess the era of the Wrigleys and Fenways are pretty much over, and replaced by corporate names and identities.

A Fisher Cat game is a great place to go to see a great ball game without the travel and/​or expense of traveling to Boston. Ticket prices are very reasonable from $ 4 — $ 12. There isn’t a bad seat in the house, and it doesn’t get real packed. Buying a cheaper ticket and moving around in between innings is a great way to get all the views of the park.
If you go and see the Fisher Cats play the Portland Sea Dogs, you’ll be seeing the Red Sox AA team. It’s a lot of fun seeing the stars of the future.
The reasonable prices continue into the concessions. A 16oz beer was $ 5.50, and a hot dog was only $ 2!
They even keep you entertained between innings with t-​shirt give aways and various races.
It’s a great place to spend a summer evening.
