Nostalgic fast food without cruelty

Dinner at @plntburger inside @wholefoods hit every fast food craving

Yes, the Whole Foods had a legit bar — so we grabbed a beer and ordered burgers right there🍔🍟🍻

We tried the Big PLNT and cheeseburger with @beyondmeat, plus herb fries, sweet potato fries, and the lil dippers — every bite was 🔥🔥🔥

Magical sauce pairings
🔥 BBQ lil dippers
🍁 Maple mustard herb fries
🌶️ Spicy aioli sweet potato fries

Perfect food, chill vibe, and totally satisfying for a quick, casual bite out.

Sort of consistent

I’ve never had any real issues at this location outside of a few missing sauces. It is what it is…pretty decent fast food. I miss the old oyster mushroom chicken sandwich but I honestly love the Meati ones too. I really enjoy the rotating specials as well.

Meh

Overpriced, small portions, meh flavor. Feels like one of those places that just wants you to feel grateful for a vegan option. Won’t be ordering again.

Fast Feel-good Food

PLNT Burger is everything you'd want in a fast food experience without the guilt of meat and cheese, but it fails to push past providing only fast-food staples and balancing a passable portion for the price.

The food is tasty. Green bean fries are great. The burger is basic, lost in the mounting noise of the “beyond” burger” culture. The fish sandwich uses the Gardein fish strips (if I’m not mistaken), which is a quality product. Some creativity is lost in only providing the vegan versions of staple fast-food offerings.

The negatives are portions. They are a little small. Signing up for their app and email provided endless discounts (I'm still receiving offers weekly). At the discounted prices, the portions are much more balanced with the price.

Menu changed

I’ve eaten at this chain numerous times. The shakes are still delicious but they didn’t have burgers yesterday and the chick is now Meati. It’s just not good. The patty was too thick, dry, and had no flavor. I miss the Swiss burger, etc. the fries are still amazing.

Pros: Fries, Shake

Cons: Meati patty was not good , No burgers available

Great options, less menu items

Always a good quick stop to come to a Plnt burger. The burgers are fantastic and the fries are super crispy. I highly recommend the dipping sauces. This location had less dipping sauces and no shakes.

Pros: 100% vegan, Gluten free bun, Super crispy fries

Cons: No shakes even though it's advertised , Less dipping sauces

Vegan fast food

I'm vegan my husband is vegetarian and he enjoyed his burger meal and he loved the oatmilk milkshake so much. If we had places like this where we live, that would be awesome.

Pros: That it was all vegan

The black and white shakes

The burgers are good but sometimes I think they're a little flimsy. I really just go for the milkshakes though, I wish the large was actually a large size, its kinda small

Pros: Milkshakes and soft serve , Chees chili fries

Cons: Expensive , Small portions

So Good and GF Friendly

Got a mushroom bbq bacon burger and it was delicious. They have a gluten free bun that was good too.

It’s been a while since I’ve bitten into a burger and immediately thought, “damn, this is awesome” and this burger did it. Wish I lived in Philly. It would be a regular.

Located in Whole Foods so I was able to run upstairs and get a drink I wanted.

Pros: Lots of options, Has a great selection that are gluten free

Cons: Not many drink options

Pretty good

I had the steakhouse burger and the patty melt special. The sandwiches were well stuffed! I enjoyed eating them. For my taste however they could have been a little less salty and a little less fried. All in all a good eating experience.

Pros: Delicious

My first visit to a PLNT Burger

It was delicious and the customer service was very friendly (Charles S).
The baby blooming onions were tasty, the fries looked under cooked but they aren't (they are quite crisp). The Baja burger was very good, it had pepper jack I think which added just a little spice but there could have been more guacamole (they skimped a little). The strawberry blueberry whatever milkshake was sooo GOOD!!!❤️😍
If you don't want to spend $10 get the egg Sammy.

Good fast food

The burgers were closer to something like McDonald's than other burgers I've tried (I'm guessing it's the processed white bread), but I didn't mind too much because there was a lot going on in them and they were super tasty, especially the Spicy Chicken Funguy. The burgers weren't huge but neither were the prices (under $10!). The crispy herb fries were indeed crispy and excellent although I found the chili a bit sweet for me. They ran out of the bloomies when I went -- I will have to go back!

Delicious! We just keep going back!

I think we’ve nearly tried every burger on the menu. We’ve had the Spicy Chik N’ Funguy, the Steakhouse Burger, the Mushroom BBQ Bacon Burger, and the new Awesome Dawesome. They’re all phenomenal but I can see how the mushroom chicken might throw someone off since it definitely has a bit more of a chew to it. They have the best french fries I’ve ever had and the oat milk soft serve really hits the spot. LOVE this place

Interesting comfort food selections

I was definitely satisfied after eating here, but it also took me getting a chili and cheese sausage, a spicy chik'n funguy burger, and a soft serve to get there. Portions sizes are decent, but I was very hungry coming in.

Anyway, the food was good, but I personally felt like the chili was a bit too sweet and not savory enough for my liking, and the spice in the chik'n funguy burger overwhelmed all the other flavors. The soft serve was pretty good and worth getting to follow up the main dishes.

That said, my very non-vegan friend who went with me loved chili and the plnt burger, so I always have to tip my hat to vegan food that satisfies my non-vegan friends.

So, 4 stars feels appropriate to me because I likely won't be going myself, but I would go if a friend was interested, and additionally, I can easily see the appeal for others.

Pros: Good portions, Friendly staff

Great food and service!

My son and I went here for the first time this evening it did not disappoint! Our burgers, fries and milk shakes were delicious and the service was great. Everyone was very friendly. The manager, Roman, heard it was our first time and came over to check in on our experience. He brought me a small sample of their chili (DELICIOUS) and brought my son a small ice cream dessert. It was very kind of him and we enjoyed the tasty extras. We will definitely be back!

Pros: All vegan , Great service

Vegan-ized fast food

I found out about PLNT Burger through a friend of mine and just had to try it out. His photos looked absolutely amazing; the food definitely lived up to the hype. I will definitely be back!
The PLNT cheeseburger, crispy herbed fries with maple mustard, mandarin cardamom juice, and vanilla soft serves are my highest recommendations!

Pros: Excellent customer service, Indoor and outdoor seating available

Cons: Outdoor seating is only available until 7pm

Just to basic

For me it's just to basic. It's a good place if you like or love beyond meat. The menu is just fried mushroom and beyond meat and potatoes.

Pros: It's good to see another vegan restaurant

Cons: Need more healthier vegan options on the menu
