Islanders fans, be sure to come hungry to games.
UBS Arena and its hospitality partner, Delaware North, have just announced the food and beverage lineup for the upcoming season. Greater Long Island had the opportunity to sample the new offerings earlier this week. (Scroll down for GLI’s must tries this season.)
One of the biggest additions is celebrity chef David Chang’s eatery, Fuku, which offers a variety of chicken options, from sandwiches to tenders, available at Market 214.
In collaboration with Northwell Health, the arena is also introducing healthier choices with the addition of Northwell Healthy Choices, featuring new salads, wraps, and sandwiches.

Working in partnership with Delaware North, we are pleased to offer our fans some new, exciting options when we drop the puck on the 2024-25 New York Islanders hockey season,” said Mike Sciortino, general manager at UBS Arena. “These items are now providing fans even more sharable items than we’ve provided previously and innovative fun takes on classics that you’d see at a game.”
