Best vegan junk food I ever taste!

Even for your carnivore friends!
Actually, the only thing which does not taste as the meat equivalent is the tonna sashimi: same texture, same color, but not the same taste (even if it’s excellent!)
All the rest have the same taste (including the salmon sashimi).
Also, you’ll be able to taste a delicious craft beer from Two Chefs Brewing which is only sold here😄

Pros: Excellent vegan food, Excellent fake meat, “But, is it really a fake meat?” (Said a carnivore

Cons: Only 1 moktail

Huge variety to choose from

VJFB is really a great place to get your junk food fix in Amsterdam. The restaurants are decked out great and the food is pretty and definitely tasty. The service was great at this branch too. The only thing is that it is a little too pricey for some items, especially the loaded fries. The betterballen are lekker though, so definitely order those.

Hi Lisa,

We are really glad you enjoyed our food. However, we are also sorry to read that you experienced our food as expensive. The reason for this is due to the fact that we develop, produce and distribute our key ingredients ourselves which makes it sometimes more expensive than average. Nonetheless, we thank you for your review and hope to see you soon again!

Yay vegan junkfood

This is what i like. It's junkfood, but vegan. And it tastes awesome. We took the bratwurst, coconut curry bitterballen and regular bitterballen and it was all so, so good. I need to say we waited a little long for our food, but in general i liked everything, the food and the place itself.
I was here with two non-vegan friends and both of them enjoyed their meal. 'Usually, i'm not really into stuff like this but this tasted really good,' said one of them, so definitely take your non-vegan friends and family to this place.

Best junk food

Ho mangiato del buon cibo anche se era un po’ poco digeribile, probabilmente causa salse e cipolla. Molto bello da vedere e camerieri particolarmente cortesi. Da provare assolutamente!

Pros: Buono, Bello da vedere

Cons: Poco digeribile

Fijn comfortfood

Heerlijk om als veganist ook eens goed junk food te kunnen eten. Hun vleesvervangers zijn erg geslaagd, en er is voor ieder wat wils

Pros: Alles is veganistisch , Leuke sfeer , Groot aanbod

Cons: Prijzig

So “meaty”!! 😍

I am new in the vegan business and I cannot explain the wonderful taste I had in my mouth with a mix of bacon, beef, cheese and the salad (Royal Smash Burger). I also tried the shrimps and chicken nuggets! It might be a hipster place but the taste is great and that’s what matters!

Pros: EVERYTHING vegan!, Awesome products

Cons: Pricey but worth it!

Proper vegan junk food, not healthy at all, but super tasty and fancy. Very different! Highly recommend! We had two different burgers and the Kapsalon w/ truffle sauce. Especially the fries we highly recommend!

fancy, bit pricy but honest junk food

people would get hooked because it looks like a hipster place. i think it‘s good to hook people who are not veggie or vegan. for me personal, i don‘t need fake tuna. but it‘s interesting to have the option. everything is colorful (even the buns) and junky. nice place, staff is a bit slow.

One of the best vegan burgers

Food is amazing, it’s a proper junk food, you need to be aware of that. I wish the kapsalon would be in smaller sizes available!

Pros: Lots of options

Cons: Pricey

Pricey

The taste is great but I payed for a rather small Caesar salad 12€. Taste-wise it was the closest to an actual Caesar salad I’ve had since becoming vegan.

Pros: Great taste

Cons: Overpriced

Great, but over rated

We had a great meal that looked and tasted great, but it is comparable with other vegan kapsalons we ate at less popular places. Therefore, we felt that the price was a bit high.
But, we would come back for more exclusive foods :)

Pros: Great interior, Nice staff, Colourfull food

Cons: Bit pricey, Bit loud music

Everything you could want

If your looking for that classic fast food taste without any animals being harmed this is the place for you! Cheese Burger and chicken burger were both a huge recommend and I was so excited to be able to partake in some classic fries and mayo!

Vegan junk food

The bar itself is quite small, but they also do take out. The black daddy mcchicken is my favourite thing on the menu.

Pros: The food, They do take out

Cons: The calories

Great place to bring your non vegan friends to

VJFB brings you great and satisfying food. I've been here many times and the food is always good, the atmosphere nice and the staff friendly. Interesting new options, desserts, and great cocktails too! Definitely the type of food your non vegan friends would love too- if they are also into junkfood of course :)

Pros: Everything vegan! Many new options and, tasty sides, desserts, cocktails etc. , Also has a cool atmosphere

Cons: Slightly expensive

Tasty & nice atmosphere

Food is tasty, great for junk food fans. Most of the menu is fried stuff, but there's also some salads and non-fried burgers. The "shrimps" and the vegan sausage were a delight. Not too expensive. The place is cool and esthetic and so is the food.

“Better than beef”

This little edgy place is fantastic. Loads of great options including collabs, really tasty food - my carnivore boyfriend rated his Notorious Sumo burger as “the best burger he’d ever had” - and while not cheap, you get a lot for your money. Would’ve been 5 stars but the fact that they don’t accept cash is pretty inconvenient especially for tourists.

Sooooo good!

Ordered this to our hotel and the food managed the travel well. The burgers were amazing! Ordering pent house fries as a side wasn’t the smartest decision: all portions are big and super tasty!

Amazing vegan food

I had the Daddy McChick’n burger and my brother (meat eater) has the original burger and we shared the waffle fries. Both enjoyed our food immensely. We had a bit of a wait and the food is a bit pricey but it was worth it!

Pros: Delicious food, Quite a few items to choose from, Heineken!

Cons: Bit pricey

Deceptive Marketing and Boring Food

I hate to leave bad reviews for vegan restaurants but I really feel shortchanged with Vegan Junk Food bar.

The main reason is that they claim on the menu that their burger is their special blend or some other romanticized marketing language.

In reality, it’s just the beyond burger.

You could go to the grocery store 1 minute down the street and get it for 5.99 and make it better yourself.

The other food is also just pretty boring. Standard fried stuff that I could go get at a regular non-vegan pub place. Maybe not the bitterballen, but whatever.

Most of the stuff is just basic fried foods that are mostly vegan anyway.

If they can’t even step up their mock meat game or come with something creative, what’s the point of going to a place like this?

Cons: Deceptive Marketing, Boring Fried Food you can get any non vegan place
