Kauffman Stadium Vegan Guide 2025 (Kansas City Royals)

Curious if Kauffman Stadium, home of the Kansas City Royals, will have vegan options for the 2025 baseball season? You are in the right place! Compared to the past, we are not seeing as many locations within the ballpark with vegan options so we’ve contacted the ballpark and will continue to update as we learn more. We also looked up the policies you’ll want to know if you’re thinking about bringing your own food or drink to a Royals’ game… along with their bag policy. Finally, we looked around Kauffman Stadium and found a couple places nearby that you can grab a (vegan) bite to eat before or after the game.

Vegan Food at Kauffman Stadium

Most Concessions

French Fries*
Chips – check ingredients

Beyond Brat, etc.

@ the Marketplace – Section 203

Beyond Brat … vegan and gluten-free plant-based sausage.
Made To Order Wraps … we have NOT confirmed which ingredients are vegan but this is where you can customize your own wrap.
Made to Order Salads … again we have NOT confirmed the specific vegan ingredients available. You will need to ask.

Crabfries

@ at Chickie’s & Pete’s We received confirmation that the Chickie’s & Pete’s crab fry ingredients are vegan and that, “they recommend stadium/venue settings to fry them separately; however, they cannot control it.” If this is a concern for you, ask the concession. Order your Crabfries with NO cheese sauce.

Section 216

Kauffman Stadium’s vegan options have been much more spread out in the last few years. If you see any other locations for these items or any other changes/additions we can make to this guide, please let us know! *Disclaimer: Always be aware that cross-contamination can occur at restaurants/concessions with shared food and prep stations. Ask if you have concerns. You choose your level of comfort.

Vegan Options Near Kauffman Stadium

Looking to grab a bite to eat before or after the game? Unfortunately, we couldn’t really find a whole lot really close to the stadium. A large majority of the vegan-friendly restaurants in the area appear to be about a 20 minute drive west of the stadium. Here are a few of the ones we found. Feel free to start your search here or start your own discovery.

Gigi’s Vegan + Wellness Cafe

1103 Westport Rd, Kansas City, MO 64111

Gigi’s has a 4.9 on Google reviews… that’s pretty impressive! This is your spot if you want fresh and healthy–kale yeah wraps, a vitality bowl, shakes and smoothies.

Cafe Gratitude Kansas City

333 Southwest Blvd, Kansas City, MO 64108

100% vegan restaurant with soups, salads, cauliflower bites, burgers, a “blt,” mac n cheese, curry and plenty of desserts.

Yard House*

1300 Main St, Kansas City, MO 64105

*Yard House

serves both vegan and non-vegan food. While local 100% vegan restaurants are always our first choice, sometimes it’s easier to get non-vegan friends and family on board with a location when the menu is more “diversified”. This has a great sports bar vibe with many Gardein branded options. The link will take you directly to our vegan guide for Yard House.
