MetLife Stadium offers a solid mix of New York-area classics and standard stadium fare. Italian sausage, NY-style pizza, and cheesesteaks headline the menu alongside premium options at the club level. The concessions have been upgraded in recent years with local vendor partnerships. Outside the stadium, the Meadowlands area has limited dining, but Manhattan is just a train ride away for pre-game or post-game meals at some of the world's best restaurants.
Tips & Fan Reports
Check out the Italian delis in Carlstadt or East Rutherford about 5 minutes from the stadium. The kind where you can not even order an Italian sub because it is not a real Italian sandwich. Worth it.
Bring your own food and drinks and hang out in the parking lot pregame. The food inside MetLife is not great but they have beer.
If coming from Manhattan, eat dinner in the city before taking NJ Transit to the game.
The Italian sausage with peppers and onions is the must-have MetLife food. It's a New York tradition.
The MetLife 50 Club has all-inclusive premium dining, worth the splurge for the food alone.
Bring an empty clear water bottle, free refill stations are available inside the stadium.
Cheapest Way to Eat
MetLife Stadium publishes a value menu. Items from $5.
