The vegan options at Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions, are still being researched for the 2025 season. Previous seasons have been good for Ford Field so we kept that list below in case you are going to a preseason game. Is it accurate for 2025? We have no idea.
Below that, we share what Ford Field’s bag policies are along with if you can bring food or beverages into the stadium… if you had thought of going that route.
And lastly, there are a couple of restaurants with vegan options, close by, should you want to eat out before or after the game.
Vegan Options at Ford Field
—->>> The following food items were from a previous season. We have contacted Ford Field to request their vegan options for the 2025 season and will update once we hear back. As of 7.31.25, first pre-season game, menus were not attached to any vendors on Ford Field’s website.
If you visit preseason and learn of any vegan options, please let us know!

Vegan Options Near Ford Field
We also took a look around the stadium to find a couple good vegan-friendly spots to grab a bite to eat near Ford Field.
Always check hours and days open when making your plans.
Sahara Restaurant & Grill
77 W Columbia St, Detroit, MI 48201
Mediterranean restaurant within walking distance to the stadium. The menu does not appear to have vegan items noted but we have confirmed that they have them. For instance, you can order their vegetarian combo –includes hummus, falafel, baba ganoush and tabbouleh salad but sub out the pita.
Buffalo Wild Wings
1218 Randolph Street, Detroit, MI 48226
Buffalo Wild Wings, another walkable restaurant to the stadium… less than a 1/2 mile away too. You might be surprised at the vegan options BDubs has. Check our vegan guide for them to see what is most current and how to modify it.
