CONCESSIONS AT BIG TOP

Big Top’s food and beverage concessions are owned and operated by our non-profit partner Mt. Ashwabay. Proceeds benefit the Ashwabay Outdoor Educational Foundation. This unique community organization operates the Mt. Ashwabay Ski & Recreation Area, established in 1948.

ASHWABAY GRILLE

Open from 5:30pm 'til intermission on regular show days, the Ashwabay Grille offers a variety of entrees and snacks. From fresh brats, sandwiches, savory sides, ice cream & desserts, bottled Coca-Cola products and more, we're sure you'll find something delicious to enjoy. 
View the full summer menu here.

THE T-BAR

​Open from 5:30pm through the end of the show, the bar's friendly and experienced staff will gladly mix up your favorite cocktail or pour you a beer. We offer several regional beers on tap, plus a great selection of bottled and canned beers and individual-serving wines. ​

CATERING & SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS

We love hosting groups at the Big Top, and whether you’ve got a tour bus, or just want to bring a half a dozen from your office to unwind at the end of the day, we’re here to help make your night at the Big Top the best it can be. We are happy to provide any of our regular items, but we also offer some special options for groups who wish to pre-order.

To see what dining and/or catering options may be available for your group, please contact Holly Pierce, at [email protected]​​​

FOOD & BEVERAGE POLICIES

  • No carry-ins or tailgating: Outside food or beverage on the grounds or the parking lots is strictly prohibited. Thank you for your respect.
  • Ashwabay works to prevent underage drinking. Please expect to show identification for all purchases of alcoholic beverages. During large or particularly busy shows, you may be asked to wear a wristband to improve the speed of our service.
  • Please note that all pricing is subject to change without notice, and all products are subject to availability, as many are season-dependent.​​​
