ICYMI, it’s the second-to-last season the Salt Lake Bees will be at Smith's Ballpark before they move to Daybreak. Catch a baseball game. They have home games all this week, and here’s what to do in the neighborhood.

🍰 Fillings & Emulsions

Are you a dessert first person? Fillings & Emulsions has pastries and desserts that are almost too pretty to eat. Try the passion lime cheesecake.

🍔 Lucky 13

This classic divey saloon is a Smith's Ballpark staple, located right across the street. The burgers cannot be beat. Heads up, though, it’s 21+ only.

🍺 Squatters and Wasatch Taproom & Beer Store

Another great place to grab a cold pint and snack before the game is Squatters and Wasatch Taproom & Beer Store.

🇯🇵 Japan-Sage Market

If you have some time to kill, peruse the aisles of this Japanese grocery store. Technically, there aren’t any outside food or beverages allowed at Smith's Ballpark, so buy some treats to save for later or get creative (at your own risk).

🥘 Woodbine Food Hall

Who doesn’t love a good food court? When you don’t quite know what you’re in the mood for, grab a bunch of things to share. Try a B.L.O.T. (bacon, lettuce, onion jam, tomato) at Deadpan Sandwich or a classic Margherita pizza at Mozz.
