Yankee Stadium’s 2023 vegan options are not your typical baseball food but we’re glad there are some. I’m all for getting falafel and ice cream at a game!
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.
If you know of anything we’ve missed or if you learn more about the menu items we’re questioning, please let us know!

You can also ask if their Avocado Roll is vegan while you’re there.
- Section 127
——–
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.
- Veggie Burrito (Section 331). Ask if this is a vegan option if you remove the cheese and mayo.
- Avocado Roll (Section 127). Ask if this is a vegan option.
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! 🙂

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.
Next Stop Vegan (The Vegan Corner Hub)
1818 Archer St, Bronx, NY 10460
Next Stop Vegan is located a little less than 4 miles east of the stadium. Not exactly within walking distance but well worth the trip.
We’ve not been here ourselves personally, but the reviews for Next Stop Vegan are amazing. People absolutely rave about the Patacon Chimi.
Taco Bell
880 River Ave, Bronx, NY 10452
Obviously not 100% vegan but Taco Bell is very vegan-friendly and is right across the street from the stadium–quick and convenient! See our vegan guide for Taco Bell to know what your options are.
