"Xinzhuang Castle" — that's the nickname Taiwan's baseball fans gave this stadium, because the exterior genuinely looks like a medieval fortress. Officially it's the New Taipei Xinzhuang Baseball Stadium, one of the core CPBL venues. When the game ends, many visitors wonder: what's there to eat near Xinzhuang Stadium? The answer is closer than you'd think — Xinzhuang Night Market is right next door. You just need to know where to walk.
Where is Xinzhuang Stadium?
Xinzhuang Baseball Stadium is located near Zhongzheng Road in Xinzhuang District, New Taipei City. By MRT, take the Zhonghe-Xinlu Line (Yellow Line) to Fujen University Station, then walk about 10–15 minutes to the stadium. Some fans exit at Xinzhuang Station and walk along Zhongzheng Road instead.
Good news: right next to the stadium is the Xinzhuang Night Market (Zhongzheng Road Night Market), so post-game food is much easier than you'd expect.
🌙 First Choice After the Game: Xinzhuang Night Market
TOP PICK5–10 min walk
Xinzhuang Night Market stretches along Zhongzheng Road, running almost parallel to the stadium. No need for transport — just walk over after the final out. The stalls open from early evening and are still going when games end.
The best part is the temple area (廟口) — around Xinzhuang Dizang Temple, traditional food stalls cluster together in the market's most lively section. You'll find: BBQ skewers, oyster omelettes (蚵仔煎), stinky tofu (臭豆腐), rice dumplings (肉圓), braised snacks, shaved ice, bubble tea — basically everything a Taiwan night market should have.
🍜 Zhongzheng Road Restaurant Strip
LOCAL PICKImmediate access
Beyond the night market stalls, Zhongzheng Road has plenty of sit-down restaurants. Beef noodle shops (牛肉麵) are especially popular in Xinzhuang — from budget stir-fry joints to handmade noodle spots. If you'd rather sit down for a proper bowl after the game instead of walking the market, this is your best bet.
With Fujen University nearby, the area skews young — you'll find Korean BBQ, Japanese ramen, fried chicken cutlets, and a whole range of affordable options popular with local students.
"Xinzhuang Castle has the soul of an old-school ballpark — a completely different vibe from Taipei Dome. Walking to the temple area for late-night snacks after the game is the complete Xinzhuang baseball experience."
🔥 The Local Secret: Fushou Street (福壽街) Late-Night Strip
HIDDEN GEM10–15 min walk
Off the tourist radar but deeply embedded in Xinzhuang local culture — Fushou Street (福壽街) is where Xinzhuang residents actually go for late-night food. You won't find it in most travel guides, but ask any local where to eat after midnight and this is the answer.
From early evening until well past midnight, small noodle stalls, fried chicken shops, BBQ skewer vendors, and stir-fry restaurants line the street, and it gets livelier as the night goes on. Almost all customers are local regulars — zero tourist packaging, prices cheaper than the night market, portions noticeably bigger.
If you're not in a rush to head back to Taipei after the game, this is the spot. Pull up a plastic stool, order a bowl of noodles and a cold beer, and soak in the real Xinzhuang late-night atmosphere.
🍺 Eat Before the Game Too
If you're catching an evening game, arriving early in Xinzhuang lets you eat dinner at one of the stir-fry restaurants (快炒) on Zhongzheng Road first. A few plates and a soup for a group of two or three people won't cost much, and you'll be comfortably fed for the game.
There are also 7-Eleven and FamilyMart convenience stores near the stadium for quick snacks before you head in — hot food, onigiri, and tea eggs if you need something fast.
🚇 Getting Home After the Game
After the game, be aware of last MRT train times from Fujen University Station — trains usually run until around midnight. If you eat late and miss the last train, Uber and taxis from Xinzhuang to central Taipei (Ximen, Taipei Main Station) run around NT$200–300, very reasonable if you split with friends.
OneDayFans Tip: Xinzhuang Stadium has a genuine local, grassroots energy — and the food scene around it matches. Don't rush back to Taipei after the game. Walk into Xinzhuang Night Market, browse from the temple area all the way to the end, and order whatever looks good. This is Taiwan baseball as it was meant to be experienced — far from the mall-polish of Xinyi, and all the better for it.
