Yankee Stadium, home of the New York Yankees, is bringing some pretty decent vegan options to the 2025 Major League Baseball season.
If those options are not what you want or maybe you’re thinking of bringing in your own food, we share with you their food, beverage and bag policies below as well.
And below that, we share a couple of vegan-friendly restaurants you could visit before or after you go to the ballpark.
If you know of anything we’ve missed or if you learn more about the menu items we’re questioning, please let us know!
Vegan Options at Yankee Stadium
Most Concessions
- Peanuts

Pineapple Cup
The Pineapple Cup comes with fresh cut pineapple, sweet & spicy chamoy sauce and a lime wedge.

–> If you happen to stop by the FreshDirect Terrace, can you let us know
which vendor the pineapple cup is located in? There are multiple vendors in this terrace area and the info was not shared on Yankee Stadium’s website or the MLB app.
Chickpea Salad + a selection of vegan options
@ Mae Mae Café
“At the Mae Mae Café & Plant Shop of Mott Haven, the menu features a mouthwatering selection of vegan and vegetarian dishes, made with fresh and locally-sourced ingredients, as well as a variety of coffee, tea, and specialty drinks to satisfy your thirst.”
- Next to Section 238 @ the FreshDirect Terrace
–> If you stop by here, can you help us out? We would like to share what the other vegan options are. Taking a pic of the menu and sending it to admin@veggl.com with the subject, Yankee Stadium, would suffice. Just tying to help out the vegan Yankee baseball fans! 🙂
Avocado Roll & Edamame
@ Benihana
- Section 127
Falafel
@ The Halal Guys
Served with falafel, rice, lettuce, tomatoes and pita bread. We have a vegan guide for them if you want to cross-reference any of their menu items.
- Section 201
- Section 321
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 115
——–
The following have NOT been confirmed as vegan but until we hear back from Yankee Stadium’s fan guest services, they might be worth a shot to ask about.
- Bobby’s Veggie Burger (Section 132). Ask if this is a vegan option without the cheese … with fries or sweet potato fries.
- Beyond Burger in the Great Hall
*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.
Please let us know if you learn more so we can update the guide for all of the vegan baseball fans in our VeggL community! 🙂
Can I Bring My Own Food Into Yankee Stadium?
These policies were all pulled directly from the Yankees Information Guide:
Bag Policy (as of 4.3.25)
- For security reasons, each Guest is permitted to bring into Yankee Stadium only one MLB-compliant bag – presently defined by Major League Baseball as soft-sided and no larger than 16 inches by 16 inches by 8 inches – and only one smaller-sized soft-sided personal item (e.g., a handbag, clutch, tote or plastic grocery bag).
All bags, personal items and their contents will be visually inspected before they are permitted into the Stadium. Bag-size bins will be used at entry inspection points to confirm the size of all bags and personal items, which must fit without assistance, modification or adjustment.
Food and Beverage Policy (as of 4.3.25)
- Guests are permitted to bring food into Yankee Stadium for individual consumption.
- Items such as apples and oranges must be sliced or sectioned.

Vegan Options Near Yankee Stadium
We also do research to try to find some great vegan spots around stadiums in case you want to grab a bite before or after the game. Unfortunately, there aren’t a lot of restaurants close to Yankee Stadium.
However, we did find one that might be worth a little drive.
Nanas A Vegan
Boogie Down Food Hall, 610 Exterior St 4th FLOOR, Bronx, NY 10451
A 1/2 mile from the ballpark is vegan food for your soul. The reviews at Nanas A Vegan are legit making me want to get in the car and drive to the Bronx just to eat here. A few favorites we are seeing are the Crab Cakes, Potato Salad, Mac & Cheese Banana Pudding.
Tsion Cafe
763 St Nicholas Ave, New York, NY 10031
Highly recommended & reviewed 100% vegan restaurant serving Ethiopian and Mediterranean cuisine 1 mile from the stadium across the river.
