Food Kiosks at the 2025 NFL Draft: A Culinary Adventure Worth the Wait
When it comes to food, the old adage holds true: the longer the line, the better the meal. This was certainly the case at the 2025 NFL Draft, where food enthusiasts flocked to the Draft Experience at Lambeau Field and the buzzing Titletown district. With over eight Wisconsin restaurants showcasing their culinary delights, fans were treated to a glorious feast that lived up to the excitement of the event.
The Culinary Scene at Lambeau Field
While typical stadium fare was available, most fans gravitated toward the food court near the Beer Hall, where local favorites reigned supreme. With lines that twisted and turned, these kiosks proved that they were more than just a place to grab a bite. They were culinary hotspots buzzing with anticipation and flavor.
Legendary Gyros: A Mediterranean Marvel
One of the star attractions was Legendary Gyros. Hailing from a food truck, this Mediterranean gem offered an array of mouthwatering choices. Fans could indulge in traditional gyros, gyro bowls, or the Specialty Legendary Gyro—a sumptuous creation of gyro meat, fresh tzatziki sauce, creamy hummus, tomatoes, crispy onions, feta cheese, and lettuce, all enveloped in a warm pita.
Jeff Payton, a devoted fan from Madison, remarked that Legendary Gyros exceeded his expectations. "There’s an authentic gyro spot back home that I always visit," he said. "This is pretty close to that."
Despite a 15-minute wait and prices hovering between $17 to $19, hungry attendees like Eugene Winkel and Jessaaron Baur were steadfast in their quest for flavor, affirming, "We’ve heard it’s pretty good, and you get a lot for what you pay for."
Heaven’s Table BBQ: A Smokin’ Sensation
Next up, Heaven’s Table BBQ was a crowd favorite, drawing a line of eager diners. Josh Zimmerman, who made the trek from Stevens Point, waited over 20 minutes for the heavenly pulled pork sandwich. With hickory and cherry wood-smoked pork seasoned to perfection, the sandwich was priced at $15—but Zimmerman insisted it was worth every cent.
"It’s got great seasoning and it’s a pretty decent portion too," added fellow fan Travis Benter, as he enjoyed the feast. In addition to the pulled pork, the kiosk offered brisket sandwiches for $16, savory house-baked beans for $6, and tangy coleslaw for $5.
Lil Jamaica: A Taste of the Caribbean
Not to be overlooked, Lil Jamaica captivated attendees with its authentic Jamaican cuisine. The line moved quickly, with fans waiting around 15 minutes to indulge in sizzling jerk chicken and hearty curry bowls. For just $15, you could savor the essence of Jamaica with dishes that truly transported your taste buds.
Lance Myers, a local connoisseur, stated, "I’ve been to Jamaica three times and this is pretty close to the real thing." Whether it was the jerk chicken bowl or the curry chicken creation, diners left satisfied and eager to return.
The Marq Supper Club: Wisconsin’s Culinary Pride
Last but certainly not least, The Marq Supper Club showcased quintessential Wisconsin fare. Featuring a tempting menu, Sheila Hurt and Gary Stinson quickly decided on the fish fry, which came adorned with two prized perch fillets, crispy fries, coleslaw, and zesty tartar sauce for $20.
"We’re from Eau Claire but just had to have some authentic Wisconsin food," Hurt exclaimed, while others could dive into a comforting beer brat and fries for $15 or a delightful fried perch sandwich for $19.
