Here it is my friends, your ultimate guide to Yankee Stadium food in 2025. Hot dogs, sandwiches, a dozen types of fries, desserts, whatever you need to know, it’s here.

Read this to make an educated decision on how to spend your Yankee Stadium food dollar. And since the Yankees were kind enough to invite little ol’ me to their food tasting event in 2025, I’m able to include a bunch of tasty pics, like this one:

Anyway, here’s the breakdown of Yankee Stadium food on this page, in case you want to skip some parts:

Gametime has your cheap Yankees tickets. They have a lowest price guarantee, panoramic seat view photos, and fantastic last minute deals, even after the game starts.

(See why Ballpark E-Guides loves Gametime here!)

 

 

Bondi Sushi is new in 2025; currently it’s only available in the Audi Club but that may change if it becomes more popular. Bondi is a local gem, with multiple locations in Manhattan.

Their full sushi station in the Audi Club features Nigiri, hot and crispy hand rolls, sashimi and crispy rice. They’re all winners. And if you live near a Bondi, you can have more of it delivered to you.

The Yankees do offer some deals on the Audi club, like discounted game day tickets for games against lesser opponents and group outing specials through the Yankees’ e-mail newsletter.

 

Yankee Stadium Restaurant #2: The Hard Rock Café.The Hard Rock Yankee Stadium is at Gate 6, visible almost immediately after exiting the train station. It’s a typical if smaller Hard Rock with slightly higher prices, except that the stars in the photographs are wearing Yankees gear which is pretty cool.

In case you didn’t know, Hard Rock is known for their Legendary® burger (true, they registered that term), which just on its own features smoked bacon, cheddar, and an onion ring.

If burgers aren’t your thing – wait, what? Am I even asking that? Choose from sandwiches made from chicken or pulled pork, entrees like steak or ribs, and of course, fancy drinks It’s also a good spot for healthy eaters, with grilled chicken salads and noodle bowls and such.

Tightwad Tip: One cool thing about the Hard Rock is that they serve beer and drinks after the 7th inning, at reduced prices or at least much cheaper than inside the ballpark.

 

Yankee Stadium Restaurant #3: NYY Steak.The NYY Steakhouse, just above the Hard Rock, is a Manhattan-style upscale steakhouse, which is saying a lot. They carry high-end USDA prime steaks, seafood, and fine wines. The Steakhouse unfortunately is only open on game days, and you need a ticket. It’s not always packed, but it’s a good idea to get reservations in advance.

You can view the menu here, but just so you know, your steak choices include a 32 oz. NYY Longbone, an 14 oz New York Strip, 20 oz. Delmonico Ribeye and a 8 oz. Filet Mignon. Wash it down with Yankee-themed drinks like the Bronx Bomber or the Yankeetini.

The food and service are excellent here by most all accounts. The portions are large enough to help you leave satisfied. The best part is that it’s actually surprisingly reasonable for a New York City steakhouse, especially inside a ballpark. You can get a sandwich here at a fairly nice price for lunch, and they offer a price fixe menu that can save you $$$ on NYC gourmet dining.

 

Yankee Stadium Burgers: Bobby’s Burgers and the 99 Burger

In case the Hard Rock burger doesn’t work for you, you’ve got other burger choices inside the Stadium.

 

The Yankees brought in Bobby’s Burgers, from (Iron Chef connection coming) chef Bobby Flay, who as you probably know gained fame on the Food Network in various forms.

Stadium offerings include a Crunchburger with potato chips on it, the Palace Classic burger with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, and pickles, and the aptly named Bobby’s Blue + Bacon with bleu cheese and bacon piled on.

Most all of Bobby’s Burgers include “Bobby’s Sauce”, which I’m told is a mixture of mayo, roasted red pepper puree, and adobo sauce.

Bobby’s stand also has fries and milkshakes, which could make your milkshake decision tougher here. (More about that in a bit.)

 

Did I mention the 99 Burger? I was getting to it. The 99 Burger is another of the Legends Hospitality chefs’ creations. It’s two quarter pound Wagyu patties with American cheese (yellow), caramelized onions, and secret sauce on a brioche bun with dill pickles. Think of it as a glorified double quarter pounder, but with better beef.

The Yankees used to limit the number of 99 Burgers they sold during games; lucky for you, that’s no longer the case. Look for it at Section 107.

If Bobby’s or the 99 don’t work for you, Lobel’s steak stands offer up a meatloaf burger. But we’ll talk about Lobel’s separately.

Yankee Stadium Food Includes Sandwiches.

There are at least five noteworthy stands here for sandwiches. It is New York, after all. Settle back, this’ll take a bit.

 

Lobel’s. Darn right Lobel’s. This is one of my go-tos for Yankee Stadium food, and it’s always worth the wait in line.

Lobel’s is a long-established (almost two centuries, no joke) purveyor of fine meats in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where you better be good at it. They have a carving station in Yankee Stadium, which usually has a line.

At the Stadium you can get their signature steak sandwich, steak-topped fries, that meatloaf burger, BBQ filet tip loaded tater tots (pause for a second and ponder how much better baseball is today), and their roast pork and broccoli rabe sandwich.

In 2025 Lobel’s introduced the Prime Pastrami sandwich, with Mike’s Amazing deli mustard and rye bread. (It tastes very much like a hot dog.)

 

Mighty Quinn’s, the BBQ joint in Yankee Stadium got their start in NYC and are now international. The chef at Mighty Quinn’s, Hugh Mangum, put together a recipe that is a meld of several different styles of BBQ, including that “smoke it for a really long time” bit.

Here you can find beef and pulled pork brisket, chipotle BBQ chicken sandwiches, and slow-smoked chicken wings with chili lime sauce. Or a rice bowl with burnt ends in it.

In 2025 the Mighty Quinn folks added a loaded baked potato, with chipotle sour cream, shredded cheddar, and scallions, topped with pulled pork brisket. That’s got to cover the food groups.

 

King’s Hawaiian is a bread company that started in Hilo; today they’re known for buttery-flavored and soft sweet bread for sandwiches and desserts. The bread is available in stores (and even at the Stadium, from what I’m reading).

They’re down to one sandwich now, presumably to get it just right. It’s a crispy chicken sandwich with maple chipotle sauce. They used to have some creative nachos here, but I think they’re gone now. Nuts.

You can get other sandwiches around the ballpark with King’s Hawaiian rolls, incidentally.

 

Fuku is a local spicy fried chicken joint known for truly amazing sweet and spicy chicken sandwiches. You can get tenders and waffle fries here too. New in 2025 is the Sando Cubano, with spicy chicken, smoked ham, Swiss cheese pork floss (pork floss?), and honey mustard on a potato bun. (This one was a big hit at the media event.)

If you like bringing the heat, try an O.G. spicy chicken sando, with habanero-brined chicken breast and Fuku mayo.

Fuku sandwiches are becoming popular in multiple ballparks, I’m noticing, maybe because people like to snicker at the name. (I kid. They’re great.)

 

The Change Up Kitchen Stand is new in 2025; it features high end stuff from the Legends’ Hospitality chefs. That includes a new lobster roll with Maine lobster salad and lemon aioli on a top cut bun. This stand is also the home of the new Lobel’s pastrami sandwich, so it’s a winner.

Robert Flowers is the executive chef at Yankee Stadium; so he’s one of the guys to thank along with Boog Powell for better food at ballparks. (He’s also a super nice guy.) You can also get other fine food items here, including a delightful porchetta sandwich, rotisserie chicken, and Nuchas empanadas.

 

Oh, about Nuchas; they’re another NYC institution that started with a kiosk in Times Square. Today they’re selling “always baked and never fried” empanadas everywhere, including at sports venues and supermarkets. Owner Ariel Barbouth has even been on Shark Tank.

So try one of their Argentine beef, chipotle chicken, or pinto bean empanadas. It’s kind of like a sandwich, but neater.

 

Christian Petroni is an Italian chef born and raised in the Bronx; if you watch the Food Network you probably know his name. He’s been all over the place there. Petroni’s stand features meatballs with his signature cheesy garlic bread, which is what drew attention to him in his mobile food truck.

This Is Baseball. Do They Have Hot Dogs?

Well, yes, of course Yankee Stadium has hot dogs. They’re made by none other than Nathan’s, the only brand that any human would be willing to eat 72 of in ten minutes.

They are a little harder to find than most; there’s one Nathan’s on each level and Nathan’s dogs are sold at the two Triple Play Grills and on the Kids’ Cart at Gate 2. If in doubt, there’s one in the Main Level Food Court. You can also get a kids dog at a lower price.

 

I’m not sure why, but the Yankees also sell Sabrett’s hot dogs at the Stadium; maybe some folks just aren’t Nathan’s types. Or maybe people recognize the umbrella on the street carts. Like with Nathan’s, you can get a normal or extra long frank at Sabrett’s stands as well.

Both Nathan’s and Sabrett’s are beef hot dogs; Sabrett’s isn’t kosher but they’re “kosher-style”, whatever that means. I guess just enjoy that you have choices in hot dogs. Nothing wrong with that.

 

The Highlanders stands serve up typical ballpark fare but in a throwback style; vendors wear the uniforms bearing the name of the New York team before they were the Yankees, and serve hot dogs and Premio sausages. (Premio is Italian for “prize”, and I suppose that could apply to a ballpark sausage. It’s definitely something you earn.)

 

If you’re one of those types that loves a hot dog with unusual toppings at the game, the Yankees handed that task to the Streetbird people (more about them in a bit). Streetbird stepped up with the “Birddog”, a footlong dog on a toasted bun topped with M’s Kickin’ Tenders, garlic aioli, pickles and Streetbird cheese sauce. A true two-fer.

Finally, the Yanks look out for their Orthodox fans too. Hebrew National kosher hot dogs are available at some NY Grills and at Highlanders, and there is a Glatt Kosher stand in the Great Hall.

We interrupt this post for an important announcement:
Bacon On A Stick! Everyone remain calm!

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Yankee Stadium food post.

This Is New York City, Any Pizza?

Yes. (Whew.) In 2025 the Yankees added Colony Pizza to their menu. How good is Colony? This partnership came about at the recommendation of YES Network people, who patronize Colony frequently (there are several locations along Metro-North line stops)  and give it very high marks. That’s saying something in this town.

At the Stadium outposts you can order 8-inch individual thin crust pies, plain or with pepperoni, or their signature “Hot Oil” pizza. The Hot Oil topping is, according to their website, “a spicy, full-of-flavor, pepper-infused creation”. Hot Oil pizza plus the ability to hold a Colony slice in one hand and a drink in the other are two reasons for the chain’s popularity.

Quite the improvement over Papa John’s, which once was Yankee Stadium’s pizza. You can find Colony on the lower and upper concourse, and in the suite lounges.

We Have Gyros + Burritos at Yankee Stadium.

Gyros are a seriously underrated ballpark food. They’re easy to carry, reasonably healthier than most menu items, and they taste pretty good, especially in New York City. Maybe it’s the water after all.

The Yankees recognized this and added The Halal Guys, an obvious choice, with offerings in the Great Hall and on the upper level.

The Halal Guys have been serving up gyros and other great street food since 1990, and they’re emblematic of the first class food truck culture in NYC. In the Stadium they serve beef and chicken gyros.

Finally having authentic NYC gyros at the Stadium can save you the hassle of patronizing numerous food carts outside.

 

I love when ethnicities mix to create a new and better food item, especially in an environment as American as baseball. The Benihana stand has been serving hibachi steak, chicken and shrimp made on the grill, which you would expect. But they took a leap for true diversity and brought up sushi burritos.

Benihana’s has sushi burritos in the form of tuna or salmon, mixed with (deep breath) avocado, cucumber, lettuce, chopped jalapenos and cilantro; topped with chili mayo and rolled into a burrito; all served with a side of chili mayo.

 

Let’s Talk About Fries.

The Yankees are serving fried potatoes as well as their neighbors across town these days. You have some superb choices here.

 

Chickie’s and Pete’s, like Fuku, is popular enough to transcend regional status. Their crab fries are a Philly institution, but you can get them at the Stadium without the trip.

The crab fries are thin crinkle-cut fries covered with an Old Bay style seasoning. For a small fee you can get a cup of dipping cheese sauce. The sauce is like American cheese with ranch dressing if you asked me to describe it.

They’re highly addictive and very popular, but get something to drink with them.

 

The aptly named Garlic Fries at Sections 108 and 331 are said to be so overpowering that people sitting in nearby sections can smell them. Garlic fries typically are a west coast delicacy, but here a handful of garlic, basil and oil are dumped onto the fries. Sounds simple, but sometimes simple works.

They’re great, but I wouldn’t recommend them if you’re trying to impress a date. Unless you’re sharing, in which case definitely order them. You can add cheese to your fries if you want.

 

Then there’s Nathan’s, whose fries could be easily taken for granted and never should. Thick, crinkle-cut fries with the Coney Island feel. As you see, you can get them in a souvenir helmet, with cheese if you want.

There are Lobel’s outlets in the park selling steak-topped fries, for you meat-and-potatoes guys. See what I said earlier about Lobel’s and their high quality beef.

 

Believe it or not, there are multiple places to get your sweet potato fries on. Bobby’s Burgers offers them up with honey mustard horseradish sauce, and there’s a couple of stands around the Field Level where you can find them. The sweet potato fries are vegan even.

So you like fries? Good. If you’re counting, there’s also regular fries at Bobby’s Burgers, jalapeno waffle fries at Fuku, Streetbird tenders and fries, and buckets with Legends’ chicken and fries. If you count the NYY Steak truffle fries and Hard Rock Cafe fries, that brings the total types of fries at Yankee Stadium to 12. Let’s hear it, baseball and fry fans!

Admit It, You Are The Munchies!

Some ballpark food is just there to be eaten as the game goes along, preferably with your hands. Yankee Stadium’s got you.

 

The Brooklyn Dumpling Shop is new in 2025. The aptly named eatery got its start with the idea that all popular foods should be dumplings. (Yes, that was a moment of clarity for me too.) Their offerings at Yankee Stadium are Buffalo chicken, Kung Pao chicken, and Wagyu beef, all with their own dipping sauces.

If you decide you really like dumplings after trying them, you can visit any of their locations in a wide-ranging radius for even more flavors.

 

Also new in 2025 is Caribbean Food Delights, proud purveyors of spicy beef patties without the MSG. They use grass-fed beef from Australia, but they dice their chicken on-site. Whatever works.

At the Stadium, in the Toyota Terrace standing room area, you can get an original style or stuffed Jamaican beef patty. The stuffed version includes cilantro lime slaw and jerk BBQ aioli.

If you enjoy their beef patties, you can find them in your local supermarket, in the Metro area anyway.

 

Streetbird, from chef Marcus Samuelsson, originated in Harlem and now has locations in Las Vegas, the Bahamas, and Yankee Stadium (truly the pinnacle). Streetbird is dedicated to something there isn’t enough of in ballparks: quality spicy fried chicken.

In addition to the aforementioned Birddog, Streetbird has spicy wings, chicken tenders and fries, and new “M’s kickin’ tenders”, with Samuelsson’s Famous Kickin’ Sauce. They have chicken and waffles here too, with waffles made from Marcus’s Aunt Mabel’s cornbread. Baseball needs more aunt recipes.

 

Few things are uniquely American like baseball, but mac and cheese is one of them. The Mac Truck people (great name) have a portable stand on the Main Level, with outstanding variations of the iconic dish, like classic mac, Buffalo chicken, or pulled pork.

Dom Tesoriero is a professional chef, and Mac Truck boasts about its “velvety fondue-style sauce”. No generic Kraft stuff, this. (Nothing against Kraft mac and cheese, it’s perfection as box cheesy mac goes. But I’m not paying ballpark prices for it.)

 

Another Legends creation: If you search on the Terrace/Grandstand level concourse, you can find the Street Tacos stand, also a new thing in 2025. Get three tacos, apparently in only one style: chicken carnitas, with chipotle aioli, cotija cheese, and pico de gallo.

Yankee Stadium Desserts: Here’s Why This Team Has So Many Fans

If you want a fancy dessert, head over to the Grand Slam Shakes stand in the food court. They have some impressive, diabetic nightmare shakes here.

Here’s the menu of Yankee Stadium milkshakes in 2025:

• Baby Ruth (get it?): A chocolate shake with chocolate sprinkles, chocolate sauce, and Baby Ruth bar chunks.
• Butterfinger: A vanilla shake with chocolate sprinkles, peanut butter sauce, and Butterfinger bar chunks.
• Black & White Cookie: A vanilla shake with chocolate sprinkles, chocolate sauce, and a mini black and white cookie.
• Candy Corner: Vanilla shake with rainbow sprinkles, strawberry sauce, cotton candy, whipped cream and a lollipop.

As for me, I’m all about the Baby Ruth bar.

For some reason, the Yankees don’t list the calorie counts on these like they do everywhere else. But as noted dietary expert Kevin James once said, you gotta let go of your diet at the ballgame. And these are some amazeballs-looking milkshakes.

 

Nothing wrong with the new cookies here too. The Sweet P Bakery people in Norwalk, CT are self-proclaimed to be “on a mission”, and the mission is pretty cool: they provide training and employment to people with disabilities. The “P” in Sweet P stands for the Potential and Possibilities of every person.

You can go to their website to read more about that, but I will tell you that they lack no abilities in their cookie making skills. It was one of the best tasting things I tried, which is saying something. They offer sweet and salty, chocolate chip, and M&M cookies.

Seriously, the cookies are amazing, and it’s for a great cause. By all means tell them Kurt sent you and he knows his sh- stuff. And you can order more from their website.

 

Christian Petroni (we discussed him a bit ago) added desserts to his Stadium menu, like tiramisu with lady finger cookies and cocoa powder in a souvenir helmet, and a sundae (in the Yankees helmet) with Mr. Softee ice cream, hazelnut hot fudge, cannoli praline crunch and vanilla panna. Your date will love it.

Like with hot dogs, the Yankees offer more than one brand of ice cream. You can find Blue Bunny hand-dipped ice cream in multiple flavors in the 100 and 300 levels.

Healthier Choices of Yankee Stadium Food: Vegetarian, Gluten Free, or Just Produce.

Having a celiac-afflicted wife, I need to be aware of these things, so here we go:

There is a Gluten-Free NY Grill in the Great Hall, with Nathan’s dogs or Premio sausages on Udi’s gluten-free buns. For GF vegans (who are truly impressive people when it comes to diets), there’s the Impossible Burger. Redbridge Beer is sold here, a lifesaver for celiac-afflicted baseball fans.

 

The Melissa’s Produce stand is gone unfortunately, but Melissa’s still supplies produce for Stadium food. New in 2025 is Melissa’s Corn Esquite Cup, fresh corn off the cob with sour cream lime dressing, cilantro, chile lime seasons and cotija cheese. Not vegan but vegetarian.

Around the big names you have other healthy choices. Bobby’s has a veggie burger, The Halal Guys make a vegan falafel, and Benihana also has veggie sushi and edamame, which isn’t a bad ballpark snack for healthier sorts.

 

If you’re looking for something truly vegan and designed to be such, check out Mae Mae Café. The Mae Mae’s people have a chickpea salad, with arugula, marcona almonds, cucumbers, pickled red onions, and harissa. It likely doesn’t get more vegan than that.

Mae Mae Cafe is another Bronx institution that offers plant-based food from around the world; fortunately you don’t have to travel as far. It’s in the Terrace sections in center field. If you enjoy it, you can visit their location on Third Avenue, with Happy Hour drinks and all.

 

Finally, I figure this bit belongs in the healthier section: due to a New York City ordinance, Yankee Stadium food stands are required to post calorie counts for each item sold there.

You’ll probably be surprised at some of them; popcorn and pretzels are through the roof, while the Lobel’s sandwich and garlic fries aren’t scary at all. If you’re watching your figure to fit in the bleachers without cheek rubbing, look around a little bit.

 

There you go baseball fans: the definitive guide to the Yankee Stadium food menu. Hope you enjoyed the read and the pics and I’m helping you with that all-important food decision at the game.

I want to express my gratitude for Michael Margolis, the senior director of communications and media relations, and of course the Yankees, for the invite to their media event. Margolis especially was a ginormous help in making this post accurate and full of great pics. He’s good people.
