49ers fans: Brock Purdy pizza, cheesesteaks and cannoli coming to Levi’s Stadium

The Faithful are also foodies, so Levi’s Stadium and its hospitality partner, Levy, make a concerted effort every year to come up with craveable culinary experiences for those devoted Niner fans.

For the 2024-25 season, which starts with the upcoming Monday Night Football game against the New York Jets, the new vendors include two family-owned restaurants with long histories in the Bay Area and an all-halal Middle Eastern menu. Fans will also find a new craft beer courtesy of a local chef-brewery partnership; a creative new menu from the stadium’s executive chef, Alvin Kabiling; and a little later in the season, a new pizza designed with one of quarterback Brock Purdy’s favorites in mind.

In introducing the new lineup, Nick Wolfe, the vice president of hospitality and retail for the 49ers and Levi’s Stadium. said he’s excited about the opportunity to “reinvent and reimagine” the fan experience every season — and to showcase local partners while doing so.

Here’s a sampling. Keep checking back because we’ll add more returning favorites and details as chefs finalize their menus:

NEW VENDORS THIS SEASON

Toto’s Pizzeria: This San Bruno and Belmont classic, in business since 1932, will make its debut at the stadium. Several generations of the Spadarella family will be making and serving personal size Neapolitan-style pizzas in pepperoni and cheese versions, along with cannoli from (of course) an old family recipe.

IB’s Berkeley: This family-owned business has been feeding students and football fans in Berkeley since 1991. For their first foray south, co-owners Fuad Baba and Michael Dughman — the latest generation to run the business — will serve the IB’s Original Cheesesteak and their popular Honey Garlic Wings.

Kabob Trolley: The wife-and-husband owners of this cable car-themed food truck and catering company, Ghezal and Yasir Wesa, will present an all-halal menu of Afghan-fusion street food, including falafel, wraps and hummus plates. The Contra Costa County couple launched the SF-based business in 2013.

Crumbl: Credit Wolfe’s wife for suggesting that these large, decadent cookies join the stadium lineup. Crumbl will offer five flavors on a rotating basis — and at least one will be chocolate.

RETURNING FAVORITES

Tony G’s Slice House: The Bay Area’s global pizza champion, Tony Gemignani, discovered QB Purdy’s affinity for cheeseburgers and decided to create a new themed pizza with him in mind. The beef pizza will be topped with white cheddar cheese, mozzarella, bell peppers and applewood-smoked bacon and finished with green onions, peppadews, romano cheese, oregano and drizzles of barbecue sauce and garlic oil. (The Purdy Pie won’t make its debut on Monday Night Football but perhaps for the next home game.)

The Shop by Chef Rodney Baca: This San Jose chef will make his signature pastrami sandwiches featuring house-cured meat, maple aioli coleslaw, pineapple molasses mustard and housemade pickles along with the East Side Burger, inspired by wife Maddie’s San Jose heritage. It’s topped with candied bacon, red relish, jalapenos and cheese. New from Baca is an IPA, Apricot Summer Orchard, a collaboration with Hapa’s Brewing.

Starbird: These folks helped launch the local fried chicken mania back in 2014 in Sunnyvale, then expanded throughout the Bay Area. This season they’ll be serving crispy chicken tenders with two housemade sauces and seasoned fries, both cooked in non-GMO rice bran oil
