Heading to MetLife Stadium, home of the New York Giants and New York Jets, hoping to find vegan food? We have a couple of options listed here, that include where you can find them, but also share a couple that we still have questions about for the 2025 season.
What’s so great about our VeggL community is that our VeggL’ers will help us out so we can help YOU out. We have reached out to the stadium with our questions but if you happen to stop by any of the the vendors below and can get concrete answers, please let us know
.
Further down, we share MetLife Stadium’s bag policy along with if you can bring food/drink in. And below that are a couple of vegan-friendly restaurants close to the stadium should you want to eat out before or after the game.

Vegan Options Near MetLife Stadium
We always like to make a day out of going to a game. That usually includes grabbing a bite to eat nearby either before or after the game (and sometimes both!).
The chain restaurant will have our complete vegan guide linked in the name.
Always double check days/hours of operation when making plans.
Yard House
1 American Dream Wy, East Rutherford, NJ 07073
If cross-contamination is not an issue for you, Yard House will have plenty of options for you to choose from. And if it is, you’ll still find a few. We’re fans of Yard House for their sports bar vibe and vegan* options; especially before or after a game.
be well
