Making my first trip to Minute Maid Park Saturday. Just looking for advice on best places to park (don't mind walking to save $$) and good places to grab a bite before the game.

Park as far away as you feel is fair for parking. Close to the stadium max 25.

Just a heads up, not sure what time the game is but lots going on downtown this weekend including Garth Brooks at the Toyota Center, so lots of places will be packed.

I actually live two blocks from Minute Maid. There isn't a ton there as far as restaurants, etc. lots of parking so that shouldn't be an issue for you.

Vic and Anthony's is a great steakhouse

If you're looking for more laid back stuff, walk down St. Emanual (southeast of the stadium) a few blocks. There's a Lucky's Sports Bar, Woodrow's bar, and a couple other spots. More into downtown there are nice restaurants. Towards the Toyota Center there is a Pappasito's as well as a House of Blues and a couple of bars on that block as well.

Overall the restaurant/night life scene isn't really built up around the stadiums here like a lot of other cities.

There is a bar that opens up right across from the stadium as well on Gamedays. It's just more of an outdoor beer garden type deal with ballpark type prices tho.

I'll be at the game as well and prob chilling at Woodrow's before and after.
