$2 - Non-alcoholic beverage products with unlimited free refills (at freestanding refill stations)
$2 - Dasani bottled water; hot dogs; pretzels; popcorn
$3 - Peanuts; pizza; nachos; waffle fries
$5 - 12 oz. domestic beer

"We focused from the beginning on building a unique fan experience at Mercedes-Benz Stadium with a goal of helping those who visit to leave the stadium with great memories shared with family and friends, not aggravation and frustration about their experience," Atlanta United owner, Arthur M. Blank said in a prepared statement. "We have listened to the concerns of the fans on the food and beverage experience and have responded to those concerns in a way that honors our commitment to providing the best possible fan experience at our events."
The pricing system is a permanent one that will be in effect for Atlanta United matches, Atlanta Falcons games as well as major events at Mercedes-Benz Stadium including the Chick-fil-a Peach Bowl, SEC Championship Game, the College Football National Championship (2018) and the NCAA Men's Final Four slated for 2020.
More food and beverage options will be announced soon with popular brands in Atlanta all being in contention. Those selections will be based on a fan survey sent out to all Founder's Club members.
The promise and mission statement for the whole venture is that you would be able to feed a family of four for $28 on an average trip to the stadium. That is a severe improvement over the normal modern day stadium experience.
