Gluten free burgers - Edit
This is the only place I can go for gluten free veggie burgers (note: call in advance to make sure they have the gluten free burger buns), but even so, I just love it. They have perfected the art of burger compilation, with the right sauces and fillings. Mango lassi and the mixed veg fries are also worth a try. Big portions, good value for money. They even have gluten free beer, a rarity in berlin.
Read moreThey did mess up by giving me a gluten containing patty in a gluten-free bun once (apparently the guy serving me thought that this was what I wanted!), but they apologised and fixed the problem, and I was lucky enough to notice before I ate more than a bite. I've been there many times though and overall, I'm very happy about my experience with them. I'd say it's my favourite berlin restaurant.

Nah... - Edit
The food is okay (though the seitan currywurst left me a bit disappointed), and very reasonable priced.
Read moreThe staff seemed annoyed that we didn't speak german, and weren't very friendly.
If you're already in the neighbourhood and feel like you need cheap vegan fast food ASAP, this is an okay place to eat.
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Unfriendly staff

Although it's veg, it's still fast food. - Edit
I was in the neighborhood and decided to hit the closed veg place. It happened to be fast food which I do not like, but tried it anyway. I ordered a seitan burger with salad and fries. It was edible. However, I got really sick after eating the fries. I felt like I had a cannonball in my stomach for the next 6 hours. The seitan burger was tough and chewy, and the bun was probably the cheapest bread available. I expected it to be vegan, but my burger arrived with some kind of mayonnaise on it and I had to rip out all the bread because I wasn't sure how to send something back to the kitchen in German.
Read moreThe WC, tables and general area seemed dirty and sticky. And the pop-up buch was torn to pieces.
I may have eaten here when I was 18, but I have higher standards for my body.
Pros: veg options, location
Cons: price for what you get is bad, dry, chewy seitan, dirty atmosphere

yummy fast-food - Edit
Great place to go if you want to enjoy some delicious fast-food. I brought my non vegan friend and she loved it. (We both had the vego burger and fries). Although the staff was busy they we're very friendly. The prices were absolutely reasonable. The food tasted amazing (although one has to mention, that it is definitely fast-food: high in fat & sodium). Only thing I noticed was that the tables outside we're dirty, I guess because there were many costumers and the staff was too busy preparing the food.

Fast. Food. Fantastic. Filling - Edit
The sister branch to YoYo Foodworld in Friedrichshain this place is exactly what Prenzlauer Berg needed. What Yellow Sunshine is to Kreuzberg, Vego Food World is to Prenzlauer Berg. Fabulous fast food (burgers, hot dogs, pizza, fries and sausages) made to perfection and at a great price. Ultimate naughty vegan delights in a great setting. Fantastic choice of food, We always tend to go for the fish burger with cheese and pommes and the salami pizza (pepperoni pizza for vegans thank you very much!) This is usually washed down with a nice cold botttle of Lammsbrau organic white bier. I bid you good day.

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! - Edit
Me and my boyfriend went here on our trip to Berlin in january.
Read moreI was looking really, really forward to trying the pizza here, but unfortunately the oven had died (which was extra disappointing as we had planned to go to Sfizy Veg for pizza the day before, but they had just sent their cooks home due to few visitors.).
But there was no need to cry; I ended up trying the so-called bacon cheeseburger with fries, a salad and a banana shake on the side, and it was GREAT!
I see other people complaining about the fries, but me and my boyfriend both loved them, no matter how strange looking they were, haha.
Maybe we're just too big suckers for junk food to care whether or not said junk food looks healthy enough, but we were utterly stoked about this place!
The shake was really good too (I like it a bit thin, though, so if you're into the really thick ice cream-like kind of shake, you might get disappointed)!
Also, our plates were HUGE!
My boyfriend couldn't even finish his, and that had absolutely nothing to do with the tastiness of the food.
I'm a bit more of a glutton, so I finished mine and could hardly walk afterwards.
Quite cheap too, but that might be me as a Norwegian talking, seeing as we would've had to pay maybe 2.5 times as much for the same meal at home.
The staff was nice; not too talkative, but friendly enough, which is quite alright at a fast food place, anyway!
We're SO coming back, and might be bringing my father this summer!
Definitely need to try the pizza next time!
Pros: AWESOME food!, Cheap!, Enormous portions!
Cons: No pizza (not their fault, though)

Vegan fast food... how exciting is that?! - Edit
I had the worlds largest craving for a burger, I mean, I wanted to eat nothing else but burgers for the remainder of my life at this point in time. And I could not contain my excitement to discover that Vego Foodworld not only offered me a vegan burger, but a selection of numerous vegan burger styles, gluten-free option, fries inclusive, tastes-like-vegan-fast-food-heaven burger. My partner and I ate there twice. In one day. Enough said.

wonderful pizza! - Edit
Located in beautiful Prenzlauer Berg, vego foodworld offers vegan pizza and burger. I myself tried the vego-pizza (but without the fake bacon) and was amazed!
Read moreI liked it even better than the vegan pizza at Sfizy, since here at vego the tomato sauce was nicely spiced - which is an essential for a good pizza imo.
I also tried a chocolate cake as dessert, which was good...but nothing special, just a basic chocolate cake. But I would return there and definitely recommend going there.
(Also the prices were perfectly fine :))
Pros: yummy pizza, well spiced, nice service, good price, beautiful location
Cons: cake was "only" good ;)

4.5 stars - greasy but great - Edit
I would give Vego Foodworld a 4.5 star rating if possible. I went twice during a recent trip to Berlin. My husband and I ordered a salami pizza, schnitzel burger, bacon cheese burger, and curry wurst on different visits. The pizza had the biggest pools of oil I've ever seen on a pizza. It was kind of gross and the pizza tasted burnt on the bottom because the pan needed to be washed. But once I mopped up the oil, it was fine. The burgers were really good here; I would get those again. The curry wurst was just ok, but not too expensive. All the meals come with HUGE amounts of fries! They are good but pretty oily. I would prefer a side salad or even chips and salsa. On the positive side, the staff speaks great English and is super kind. We had a mixup with ordering and payments, and they were very generous in helping figure it out. I love this place, I just wish it was a little less oily. And before you say I only like healthy food.... Keep in mind that I was the one ordering these unhealthy things. I just wanted them to be slightly less oily and for the French fry portions to be less huge.
Read morePros: kind staff , inexpensive, delicious burgers
Cons: too oily (even for fast food)

Love the GF Burger - Edit
I like this place because it's cheap, fast and rather good: A bit greasy, but hey, that's a fast food, right?
Read moreI mean their fake meat and stuff are really good, and I'm not so into that normally.
They have a crazy gluten free burger with a "steak" that tastes like tuna! really good, and so are the fries. I wouldn't recommend the salad though, it's not that good. They also sell their chocolate bars which everyone seems to like. I can't tell because I really don't like this sort of treat, full of sugar and lecithin but you defo have to treat yourself with some junk food sometimes!
And try their calamari they are AMAZING!
Pros: great burgers and fries, gluten free options, cheap and quick
Cons: a bit greasy

Best tiramisu! - Edit
Great stop for some vegan fast food.
Read moreThey have a range of burgers, pizza and other dishes. And if you are lucky they also have some tiramisu left, which is extraordinary yummy :)
The only negative thing to mention is that it is a bit messy and unclean from time to time.
Pros: cheap, great variety of burgers
Cons: a bit messy and unclean

I went there while visiting a friend in Berlin and we both had the wrap with vegetables, which was super delicious! The sauce was excellent and I would definitely go there again, as would my friend.

The best of vegan Berlin - PHENOMENAL! - Edit
We managed to visit a lot of veggie/vegan establishments during our time in Berlin, but my partner and I both agreed that Vego World was the best. The 100% vegan menu boats around six different kinds of pizza and a whole page of burgers that come with or without fries (think bacon cheeseburger, fried chicken style burger, chilli chicken cheeseburger.... the list is endless!). I opted for the salami cheese pizza and was blown away. I'm a massive fan of pizza and this one was utterly delicious. The salami was hidden underneath the cheese which made a nice change and there was definitely a combination of different vegan cheeses used. Well worth 6.50 euros although I would have been happy paying 10. We ate at Vego World twice during the six days that we were in Berlin and we would consider getting a hotel nearby for our next trip. Friendly, down to Earth people, economical, extensive menu and incredibly tasty vegan fast food makes this place an all-round winner. Chaostheorie is on the same road so visit there after your meal and grab a vegan milkshake to top it off. Five cows!

Disappointed - Edit
I was very excited to eat here with my husband during our trip to Berlin, and we also had it recommended to us. We arrived there at lunch time, and were the only ones there. We could hear someone in the back crying hysterically on the phone, and then she started yelling very loudly. I know she had no idea we had walked in, and I feel bad for her, but we got scared away. It wasn't the atmosphere we wanted to eat in.
Read moreI am sure we just went there at the wrong time.
I am very disappointed we didn't get to try the food. Maybe we will have better luck next time.
Cons: Staff was having a bad day

Good vegan burgers for decent prices - Edit
We ate there on our last two trips to Berlin and wouldn’t mind eating there again. If a good vegan burger is what you’re looking for this is what you get (and served with a smile). For me the number one place for burgers in Berlin.

It is what it is! - Edit
Fast food but in Vegan form! It's pretty good, I had a chicken burger with cheese, fries and salad. If i'm honest I can't remember the burger (which for me, says it wasn't anything special) and I also remember the fries being a bit odd (like having the scrapings out the bottom of the pan!?) BUT I DO remember really loving the salad...and my boyfriend is mad about the chocolate bar they do. If you're into junk food then definitely make a stop here when in Berlin (as it's nearby some other cool spots like ChaosTheorie and Veganz) BUT if fast food is not your thing, then don't bother :)

Best vegan fast food in Berlin! - Edit
Definitely love this place! They offer a really large choice of vegan burgers—all of them are, or look, really yummy—, but also pizzas, hot dogs, fries AND... a vegan curry wurst! Do not hesitate to stop here if you are in the area. They also have some good desserts, such as their vegan tiramisu or their own chocolate bar. Awesome place for a vegan junk (but good) food lover! And everything is really affordable.

Good hangover food - Edit
The food here is good if you're hungover and craving fried burgers and chips. I had the chicken burger with cheese, which did the job but it wasn't the best vegan burger I've ever had. The salad was a bit boring and I didn't finish the fries. It did what it says on the tin though.

cheap slicey vegan junk food - Edit
Why eat vegan junk food? Not well prepared, strange attitude from staff. Only burgers and pizza on the menu.
Read moreI would not recommend you to visit this place. I love to support vegan places but the food is simple. You can make a better vegan pizza or hamburger at home.
Updated from previous review on Thursday February 06, 2014
Some one wrote about the fries - they are really strange and the fries were like this time when I was here 3 years ago as well. Not tasty, look kind of burned and for me dangerous to eat!
Updated from previous review on Saturday February 08, 2014
I came back again to try a burger. It was much better this time and the staff more friendly. I guess this place is a little bit uneven. On the other hand it is not a restaurant but a fast food place (with restaurant prices!).

Pros: In Prenzlauer Berg, Vegan, quick

I really love this place and the food there and do not understand what your problem with these wonderful fries is?! Have you ever made fries yourself at home? When I do it, they always look exactly like the fries in the vego and I love the way they look because thus I can be sure that these are really good fries without any flour or other things mixed into it, just potatoes and nothing else! Yummy :) Besides, the people there were great. I had a nice chat and I can really recommend the Gyros and the Cheeseburger menu:) They even make the burgers with gluten-free bread if you ask, so for me this place is heaven and in my opinion the prices are really good, they are almost exactly the same as for "usual" fast food.

Thanks for your response to my review. I appreciate it but will still comment on it;)
Read moreTaste is all different, I will not question that. Greasy fat and even burned food could be very appealing for our taste buds.
However, I am a little bit ambivalent to these kind of veggie fast food place. Yes, why do vegans all the time have to healthy food? We should be able to eat some vegan junk food sometimes. Nothing harmful with that.
However, the hamburger seems healthy, as long as they don't burn them as well (I experienced slightly burned hamburgers as well at this place).
I believe that french fries are always unhealthy to eat but it is worse if they are burned. You asked the right (or wrong?) person if I know how really fries taste. I only order French fries in restaurants if they are made IN the restaurant, which means that the slice the potato and prepare it in the kitchen of the restaurant. This is the kind of French fries you would get in any good restaurant but they might not even call it French fries.
These fries at veggie world look not only burned but they are not stiff! They are soft, hanging like sad snakes or something. Dripping of fat (burned old oil as well?). Probably the slice potato and deep fry them but they do something wrong since they burn them and make them soft, greasy and brown!
My question is when you had really French fries because this is not how they are suppose to be. Go to Southern Europe or travel to Africa and experience real Fries, prepared by only potato, sliced in the kitchen and fried AFTER you have order them.
runsten
i believe that people come here because it is close to their homes and cheap. But did you know that for 7 euro you get a superb hamburger with French fries and salad at KOPPS? This restaurant might be perceived as expansive, fancy and too snobbish, but at the end, you can get wonderful Hamburgers and Pizza from a REAL kitchen, for the same price as at Veggie World (it is 7 or even 9 euro for Burgers with salad and French Fries). So don't be scared of KOPPS just because you might be a "poor" student, you will get more value for less money there, than in Veggie World

OK, but not special - Edit
I found this one to be a little disappointing in comparison to the reviews here. Vego serves vegan alternatives to mainstream fast food, such as burgers and pizzas. I've had better faux meat and cheese products than this. Also, our food was a bit over-cooked.
Read moreHowever, the Vego chocolate bar was absolutely delicious.
Pros: All vegan, Vego chocolate bar is amazing

Possibly addicted to the Bacon Cheeseburger - Edit
My partner and I came here twice during a short stay in Berlin. Both times we had the Bacon Cheeseburger, which is quite possibly some of the best vegan junk food I've ever had. I agree that the fries were not fantastic, but my partner seemed to really enjoy them. The chicken nuggets were quite tasty too. Also, the chocolate bar with hazelnuts was just amazing, though definitely guilt-inducing (try not to eat it all in one sitting!). The staff were very friendly and spoke English, and the prices were great. The second time we went it did take a while to get our food, as there was only one poor staffer taking all the orders and doing all the cooking. Still, it was totally worth the wait. So happy we found this place!

Delicious Fast Food - Edit
Cheap and delicious. This is fast food, but it's not terribly unhealthy. The burgers are better than the fries. I had the hot chili burger and it was super tasty. My husband had the Hawaiian burger and although good, we both liked mine better. We will definitely go back when we're feeling it.

bad time to go - Edit
we went rather late in the evening (22:00) and they had no more dough, so pizza's and wraps were no longer possible. so the only option was some burgers with fries. Burgers were ok, fries, well not the kind of fries i like, very short hard fries. All in all it's decent fast food, but there are better places to visit in Berlin.

Burgers and pizza place with a chocolate bar! - Edit
My second visit to Vego confirmed that this is a place you can rely on to get a good quick burger or pizza with a salad that will do the job even if it doesn't "make your day". Buying one of Vego's chunky nut chocolate bars to take away and guzzle when you're feeling depressed or indulgent does make it worth walking all the way down Lychener Strasse to find though!
Read moreMy friend thought that her Vego seitan burger was the best she had tasted so there you go!
