Bardzo dobre burgery

Bardzo dobre wegańskie burgery oraz domowej roboty grubo cięte frytki. Dodatkowo, codziennie co wyboru potrawa dnia (w naszym przypadku były to pierogi z wegańską bryndzą). Pyszna lemoniada.

Pros: Duże porcje , Smaczne jedzenie

Cons: Dość drogo

No.1 in Bratislava

Best vegan options in town, nice foodstyling, although the prices got little higher recently. But for a dinner from time to time it’s definitely worth it. The service is always very kind.

Best place so far

Bratislava is about my last stop in eastern Europe. The food that is served here is really fantastic! Okay.. some people might find that they are trying to please the non-vegans too much with all the dishes with meat substitutes.. but the meals are of such high quality that it might help to convince non-vegans that the vegan lifestyle is not so bad at all!! Really I would bring all my friends here for food!

Lots of choices

We had the Cubano sandwich, the Mexico burger and the stacked fries… we did not have space for desert but had it anyway. Everything was delicious. The fries could have been a bit more warm, I like my fries really hot… next time I wi ask for it.
Overall a great experience… living in Vienna, everything is closed on Sunday so we tend to go to Bratislava once in a while for Sunday shopping. Balans will be the go to place every time for lunch. Can’t wait that it gets warmer outside to try their terrace.

Delicious burger

I got the Balans Burger and it was really tasty, and a great portion too.
I ordered a lemonade, but got water with lemon and herbs which I didn't enjoy.

Used to be best in town

Menu is always really nice and if you don't feel like having one, then you can be sure that their other meals will be great as well! I especially recommend the Balans burger with fries.

Update for 2021: went there twice after they moved and I wasn't very happy with the prices going up, don't like their new interiors as well. Food is kind of greasy, definitely avoid the fried cheese. Both times I wanted to order a pizza and they were out. This place used to be the best place in town, hope they can up their game. Will give it another try next year. They are trying to create menu that suits non-vegans and its just so heavy and greasy. I would recommend to go for their daily menu instead of burgers (which was their best offer in the past). The drink bar however really shines.

Good burger

Nice restaurant with vegan comfort food. I had the burger and it tasted good. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere interior design was cosy and reminded me a bit of a bar.
