best vegan burger in the world - Edit
we've eaten vegan fast food in cities across the world and in our minds the burgers at ain soph ripple are still the benchmark we judges others against.
Read moreso good we ate here 3 times in one week.
DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE OUT
Pros: chik'n burger is 100/100
Cons: could do with more tables/bigger premises

Mac and Cheese for breakfast. - Edit
We loved this place. My boyfriend and I stayed a couple blocks away, so we pretty much went once a day while in Shinjuku. The chicken burger is amazing, I can also recommend the lemonades, the little “snowball” treats next to the cashier and their macaroni and cheese, it is so good! The place is small and cozy and has a really good WiFi connection. If you are near the area definitely pay a visit.
Read morePros: their food, wifi connection

Best Vegan Burger I've Had - Edit
I came here for dinner and had the "chicken" burger. It was so good! Although really simple (a crispy gluten meat patty, red cabbage, and tartar mayo), the flavour and texture balance was exceptionally good and left me really satisfied. It was also a really decent size, and I felt worth the 1100 value just as a full meal (even without any set add-ons), unlike some other burgers I've had in Japan. The wifi connection was fast and the staff are lovely.
Read morePros: Yummy!, Decent size and options, Nice staff

Tasty Fast Food - Edit
Food is good, nothing outstanding, but definitely a solid option if you're looking for fast food. I had the chickn and ripple burgers and mac n cheese. I liked the meatier texture if the chickn burger, but the flavor of the ripple burger. The ripple burger had a bit of a mushier texture. The mac n cheese was good. Overall a very good option in Tokyo. I am from NYC so I am a little spoiled when it comes to good vegan food.
Read moreCons: A tiny bit pricey for the quantity of food you get

Hopped here after seeing the Godzilla head in Shinjuku. And ordered the soy chicken burger and cheese fries with ice tea. All amazing. One of the best burgers. Spoke English as well and the serving size was really good for the cost. Very clean and cozy and quiet. Will come again.

cute and yummy - Edit
chocolate and banana muffin was beautiful - moist and really banana-ry and delicious. the cheesy chips were a bit lacking in cheese but it was honestly the best and most authentic cheese ive ever tasted. I wish I could have gone again to try the chilli cheese fries. They should try milkshakes!!
Read morePros: good selection, yummy yummy food, cute atmosphere and decoration
Cons: a bit small, small menu, milkshakes next please

vegan fast food - Edit
I went here on my first night in Tokyo. If you follow Google maps, it's easy to find. The staff was super friendly and spoke some English. The place was full when I arrived, but didn't have to wait long for a seat. I ordered the classic ripple burger. The burger itself was okay, it's not the best burger I've eaten but also not the worst. That's just my personal taste. I think I probably would have been happier with one of the other options like the burrito.

Really great chicken burger! - Edit
We ate here twice and really enjoyed it both times. Fast food sorta stuff, which is exactly what we were after. Had the veggie cheeseburger first time, and crunchy chicken burger the second- the latter being the winner of the best burger competition. Could maybe use a little more salad vegetables in their salad, since I like to balance out the fast food element with a little more healthiness, but each to their own of course.

Pros: Great vegan fast food

Try The French Toast! - Edit
There are a lot of vegan places in Tokyo, but the ones I’ve found so far are quite expensive and have small portions. This place is different. Their food is excellent, good portion sizes, and very friendly staff. And the French toast is absolutely amazing!

Tasty 'chicken' burger - Edit
We came here for a bit of familiar food while on holiday to Tokyo. This place had a great atmosphere and friendly staff that spoke fluent English. I ordered the vegan cheese burger with fries - personally I didn't like the burger very much but I can't put my finger on why. Luckily for me my husband swapped his 'chicken' burger for mine and it was delicious! I enjoyed reading through the guestbook to see where all the other vegans had visited from and made sure to leave my own little message. Great place, would definitely come back again.

All vegan American style food - Edit
This restaurant serves all-vegan burgers, burritos and desserts and caters very well to English speaking customers. My soy-chicken burger was pretty good and I had the cheese sauce covered fries which tasted pretty good too. Service was quick and ordering in English was easy. The place is pretty small, but they could luckily seat all 5 of us when we arrived. A tiny bit expensive maybe for what you get but if you’re looking for a meat-free safe-haven we had a good time here.
Read morePros: All vegan menu, Range of beers, Friendly and quick service
Cons: Fairly small (15 seats total)

Favourite Ain Soph - Edit
This is my favourite out of all of the Ain Soph's. I am a sucker for a good burger and burrito, and they never fail to make a great one! The burgers and burritos are fresh and don't leave a heavy feeling in the stomach like other burgers can. The only con to this restaurant is the size. If one large group goes for an extended eat, you could be waiting up to an hour to get in for dinner like I did once. They would benefit greatly from a larger store! Fortunately this is rare, but it may be best to get there slightly earlier than intended.

Relaxed - Edit
Serves all vegan food. I had the crispy soy chicken burger with fries, and by partner had the ripple burger with cheese fries. Mine was OK, but I preferred my partners. Would recommend if you are looking for Western style food. Prices are a little high for what you get, but what we ate was still tasty.

I LOVED this place. Great burgers and the chilliest fries are to die for. They serve beer also and the style is casual communal dining. Lots of charging ports for phones etc in tables and great WiFi. Great location for a stroll before or after also.

Favorite vegan food in Tokyo - Edit
Definitely up to par with vegan spots in LA. It was the only vegan junk food spot we found in Tokyo. A welcome change from rice bowl after rice bowl. The cheeseburger and French toast were delicious. Highly recommend coming here a couple times to try different things on your trip.
