Funny place with good vegan food

It’s a very special place with lots of gaming stuff in the entrance - the restaurant is located behind the gaming hall where you can play Mario games, Billard and stuff.
For food, there’s 3 different “shops” you can order from, Hoax being the vegan one (there’s also a pizza shop with 1 vegan option and another one we didn’t really check) - Hoax has a super interesting and special menu. We had scrambled Tofu Shawarma in a crunched Wrap and a Mix platter with seitan-“chicken”, avocado and special fries. We loved it both!

Definitely recommending to go there and bring some extra time to have fun in the gaming hall!

kuukauden spessu

Jälkkäri oli niin hyvä, että tällä kertaa tulin vain sen takia. Hyvää oli tälläkin kertaa.

One of the best junk food meals I've had

As a local, my first visit here was long overdue. Finally made it there and had difficulties choosing what to eat. It was so nice to have several options that are not burgers. I had Parmesan & Marinara "chicken" with oregano fries, and the portion was very tasty and full of interesting ingredients, such as pomegranate seeds, radish, carambola, and sprouts, which you might not expect in junk food. The only downside was that the food could have been warmer. Not sure if it left the kitchen that way, or if it was just so cold in the restaurant (it was) that it cooled down quickly. It also took a while to get the food, but it was a Saturday evening and the place was busy.

Perfect vegan "junkfood"

I haven't tried anything on the menu that I don't like. Especially the loaded fries with tofu and these filled "breads" they have, are sooo tasteful. They have also yummy soft icecream for those who like sweets like I do. 🤗

Pros: All the food, Staff, Atmosphere

Good food in a fun arcade

The food was tasty, but the best part was the restaurant. The restaurant has a cosy arcade and a fun atmosphere.

The best vegan junk food in Finland

Ok so I've visited Hoax several times during it's history and even though not every visit has been worth five stars, the overall is. I suggest to take a kombo platter instead of burgers. I love the tofu katsu with little fixes. Truffle mayo tastes almost the same as their old garlic sauce and I suggest to take it instead of the garlic sauce on the list rn. They serve Oatly's soft ice cream (pehmis) and it's perrrrfect! They have an ice cream dish that changes monthly but also the Hoax pehmis is great.

TIP! Due to long lasting construction site in the railway station area (started 6/2025) the best way to find Hoax is to google yourself to S-market Pendoliino, go inside, walk towards the railway station and take the stairs down. The restaurant is in the right. The old entrance is closed.

Pros: Kombos, Truffle mayo instead of the garlic sauce, Oatly's soft ice cream

Cons: Noisy place, Quite expensive

5/5 junk vegan food

They serve great junk food with a korean/asian twist. Really tasty and plenty of options to choose. Atmosphere is cozy too, there are nostalgic arcade games such as pinball machines.

Vegan & awesome

Fabulous burger: the "marinara" cheezburger with marinara sauce, pepperoni, and balsamic glaze - an umame bomb! Tasted great, and with a side of chips it was filling. It's in a retro games arcade too - why not!

Fun and different

Cool spot in a small food court situation with arcade games. On the expensive side, but the combo meal portion was huge. Pretty salty, but that's what you expect from junk food! Very tasty and enjoyable.

Good concept.

Well, the symth wave vibe is very cool. The food concept also matches the restaurant theme.

We are talking about bar food. It is not necessarily bad but it is not outstanding. I was there twice and the portions are not filling. I was hungry afterwards.

I think it would be cool that restaurant customers could have 3 tokens to play in the arcades. Or something like that. Food is on the edge of pricey bar food and as a customer I won't be over expending for the arcade machines.

Room for improvement.

Pros: Theme

Cons: Price

Great Burgers!

The restaurant is little bit hard to find, but once we got there we really enjoyed the concept of the place! The burgers were really good! Also loved the loaded fries. It‘s a little bit pricey but definitely worth a visit.

Pros: Staff, Concept

Cons: Price

Bad quality

Couldn’t even finish my meal. Will never come here again. Cheap quality.
The concept of the place is unpleasant as well. It’s very loud and kind of dirty

Delicious all vegan junk food restaurant

Delicious food but quite pricey and portions are small. I was still hungry after the 18.5€ combo. Soft serve ice cream was great and filling dessert.

Location is a bit hidden, google maps failed to get us there but we found it after searching around a bit. It's on the lower level near the entrance to railway station.

The restaurant shares the space with mexican restaurant, a bar, and classic arcade coin games.

Pros: Everything is vegan, Delicious, Friendly staff

Cons: High price, Small portions

Yummy wonder fries

Who would have thought, but fries with chilli vegan chicken and peanut butter really works. Fun quirky place and friendly staff.

The best burgers

We tried two of their burgers and omg.. They were the best ones I’ve ever had. It was a bit pricey but it’s worth it, the location is a bit.. Uhm, it wasn’t easy for me to find it 🥲 But yeah, if you’re in Tampere you need to visit this place. The decoration is amazing, if you love video games you’re going to adore this!

Pros: The burgers, Decoration

Cons: Location

Creative junk food

Fun place with lots of creative spins on junk food. Yummy srambled tofu but was a bit surprised to find it rolled in flatbread together with the fries.😄Definitely worth a visit!

Worth going to again and again...

Hoax is easily in my top 3 vegan places in Finland. An absolute must every time in town or passing by. Have not found a single menu item i didn't love. I keep trying to come up with excuses to visit just to get heavenly junk food 🤤🤤 Today's choice was combo 2: tofu katsu with garlic fries and kimchi. Incredible.

Pros: Everything is vegan, Everything is delicious

Saw the pictures beforehand and thought to myself that this must be good. It was even better. Visited here several times while staying in town. Best junk food I have ever had.

"Let's have something light for snack..."

We went to HOAX to have something light for evening snack. Well, it did not work. The food was great and the portions were huge. We ended up eating way too much for a light snack. We had a shawarma and a combo, both were delicious. A must visit restaurant in Tampere. You can grab food and drinks from another restaurant and drinks from a bar that share the lot.

Pros: Portions were huge

Cons: Hard to choose from the menu
