As one might expect from a sporting venue located in Portland, the vegan options at Moda Center seem to be abundant!
We don’t know of specific menu items yet, but there are almost a dozen locations in the stadium that are labeled as having vegan options.
In addition to those locations inside the stadium, we’ve also outlined all the policies you need to be aware of if you’re thinking about bringing your own food in.
Finally, we looked around the area nearby Moda Center to find a couple places worth checking out before or after the game.

If you’re thinking of bringing your own food or beverages to the Moda Center, there are a few policies that you’ll need to be aware of. We pulled these directly from Moda Center’s Guest Services Page.

Prohibited Items* (as of 9/22/21)
- Food or Beverage
*This is not a complete list of prohibited items at Moda Center, just the ones we felt were relevant to bringing food and/or beverages to the game.
Vegan Options Near Moda Center
If you want to grab some food before or after the game, there are plenty of options to choose from. We could have listed
VooDoo Doughnuts
1501 NE Davis St, Portland, OR 97232
We couldn’t not put the ultra-popular VooDoo Doughnuts. VooDoo Doughnuts is arguably the most well-known doughnut shop in the country and for good reason.
They make amazing and creative doughnuts and while they aren’t 100% vegan, they do have plenty of vegan doughnuts to choose from.
Located about a mile and half away from the arena, it’s a spot that you have to check out at least once. Be prepared to stand in line though! We stopped by on a Saturday when we were visiting Portland and the line was a block long!
Blossoming Lotus
1713 NE 15th Ave, Portland, OR 97212
There are a half dozen places that we could have listed here, so why Blossoming Lotus? First, a 4.6 rating with over a 1000 Google reviews is really hard to do.
Second, it’s only a mile straight east of the arena. Third, the pictures! From the nachos to the bibimbap, the food looks amazing.
