FLUSHING, N.Y., March 28, 2023 – The New York Mets today announced that The K Korner, which will operate in the former McFadden’s location on Seaver Way, will open to fans on Thursday, April 6 for the Mets home opener. Fans will be able to enjoy food and beverages at The K Korner before, during and after all Mets home games this season.

The K Korner name is a nod to Section 44 at Shea Stadium, which became known as “The K Korner” during Doc Gooden’s starts, as fans would display K signs for each of Gooden’s strikeouts.

There will be an exclusive entrance to Citi Field through The K Korner for those with game tickets for convenient access to the game. Game tickets will not be required to enter The K Korner.

“This year, we’re focused on making Citi Field not just a place to watch the Mets, but also a social space for people to gather,” Mets Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer Jeff Deline said. “Mets fans have been waiting for a space like The K Korner for years and we’re thrilled to provide an option for them to spend even more time at Citi Field cheering on their team and enjoying our robust menu.”

Pizza bagels from PopUp Bagels, cheese curds, wings, steakhouse melts, burgers and more pair with over 25 available beer options to highlight a food and beverage lineup that will allow fans to extend their enjoyment of the best culinary experience in professional sports.

The K Korner has a capacity of 450 people, which includes a 100-seat dining room, 60 barstools and standing room at the bar.

The bar and restaurant will also open during non-baseball events like NYCFC matches and concerts at Citi Field in 2023.
