Not bad - Edit
I was a tourist and only had one item – the cheesesteak. I am always pleased when a standard vegan burger place offers a 'local food' option, since I often miss out on much of the food tourism!
Read moreIt was piping hot and the components were pretty good, though I can't say it really wowed me. I was quite surprised that there was liberally applied ketchup. I have been vegan so long that I have never had a 'true' Philly cheesesteak, but that cannot be normal? In any case, it would have been much better without it.
It's a great option to have, but it's hard to give 5 stars based on that item, which was close to $15 with tax and pseudo-mandatory tip (even though it was takeout). The place was efficient, but there is nothing charming or homey about it, and only 4 stools in the front, so it's food-centered.
Pros: Hot and fast, Efficient
Cons: Ketchup on the cheesesteak, A bit expensive for what you get, Not much charm

Delicious! - Edit
Had a chipotle fajita chicken wrap and a mint matcha shake, both were delicious. The protein could have fooled anyone.

Best vegan food ever! - Edit
I love the food here! I have tried many of their burgers, “chicken” sandwiches, “chicken” nuggets, and the milkshakes. If this were closer to where I live, I would be coming here almost every day. I would like to see more locations throughout the US.

My first time trying a vegan Philly sandwich. - Edit
The Philly steak was delicious! Warm bread with caramelized onions and mushrooms - the Philly way without the meat. My daughter enjoyed the fries.

Overall, a good one! - Edit
Partner and I split our meals. I thought the Philly steak was just okay. The texture was on point but I felt like it was missing something. The crispy hipcity ranch was very good! Solid sweet potato fries. Yummy.

Love the food - Edit
HipCity really has some of the best food. Their burgers are my favorite, especially the smoke house. I love their fries and shakes as well. And their salads are surprisingly filling.
Read moreThe problem with Hipcity is they are so dang expensive. It's like 20 bucks for a burger and fries. Neither of which are big at all. It's good, but these vegan places are brutal. I've pretty much stopped going here. Now I just grab some vegan patties from the dollar store, and hook them up with vegan-smoked gouda, a bun, bbq sauce, and crispy onions. It's not as good and I gotta make it myself, but at least I can afford it 😅
Pros: Great food
Cons: I cant afford to eat here

Great alternative to the Philly cheesesteak - Edit
Omg! I visited Philly in November and found this place as I was looking around. I love the turmeric lemonade. The sweet potato fries are also awesome. The Let just say I have to keep going out there to try all the food.

Falling off - Edit
Happy a fast food vegan spot exists in the city of brotherly love. Overall I happily frequent this spot when I’m in the city but on a recent trip back I was thrown by the poor execution of the cheesesteak, I chalked it up to being a one off fluke by the cook that day, so I went back the next day and ordered it again and sadly it was off again. What was once inspiring food now feels like it’s on autopilot and the quality is falling off because it.

DELICIOUS - Edit
So so so good!! Stopped by here for takeaway on a stop through the city. Total soul and homey food vibes with an urban and clean environment. I had the Chikn sandwich and the banana frozen cream.... and OMG to DIE for. Everything was absolutely delicious, but a little bit on the expensive side

Fast food for vegans but SO MUCH BETTER! - Edit
This place is crazy good! Its a fast food place but built for the plant based crowd. All the burgers and sandwiches are mouthwatering good, but if you don't add the sweet potatoe fries you're missing out on the true gem!
Read moreService is always quick and the place is always clean. If you're in Philly for the day and are in the mood for a burger and fries...COME HERE!

Отличное место, что бы сожрать совсем не полезный Philly Chesse Steak перед матчем Flyers, в начале легендарной Broad Street. Go Vegan! Go Flyers!
