Best junk food!

This is an awesome vegan cafe - very casual, just grab a menu and order at the counter. I got the nuggets with salad which were amazing chicken nuggets. For a main I got the bacon cheeseburger which is PERFECT just like the real thing. My partner got the Hawaiian pizza which he said was divine. They forgot my drink, the mango lassi, but I reminded them and got it - it was really good.

They all make and sell the BEST vegan chocolate bars - big blocks of hazelnut chocolate with whole hazelnuts. You MUST try them!

They also speak English.

Pros: All vegan, Awesome junk, Great chocolate bars

Fast Veg Food

I enjoyed so much with the "cheese bacon burger", highly recommended.
The seitan burger could be better, but acceptable.

Tiramisu looks like a piece of bread with sweet cream, I don't like it.

Great and fast

The best burguers I've enjoyed in Berlin so far. You have a big selection of different types.

Their French fries are also pretty good!

Pros: Taste, Unexpensive, Friendly Staff

Cons: None

Great food

This may not be the healthiest place, but their food is really good, service is good, and finding a table isn't difficult.

I've been here twice, and I sampled several items on the menu with friends. You won't be let down.

Pros: All-vegan, Friendly

Awesome food

This place is so good that I had to go twice through my 7 seven days in Berlin. I really wish I had something like this back home.

I had the vegan bacon cheese burger (hhohohoho) and it was scrumptious. Tasty as hell. My girlfriend had the traditional curry sausage with French fries (currywurst) and it was just as good. Make it a priority to go to this place.

Loved their spinachburger

Went here two times last weekend. Had their gyros pfanne, 'salami' pizza and homemade spinachburger. My first encounter with the gyros wasn't good, at first it was cold, so I returned it. The gyros I received next wasn't really tasty, very chewy actually.

The homemade spinachburger and pizza really made up for that though. They also had this great tiramisu and most of the things I tried from my friends tasted good too. I wouldn't recommend having their regular hamburger though, it's just the Fry's hamburger. Go for their homemade burgers!

Pros: inexpensive, friendly staff

Cons: the restaurant can be full

Great burger place

Been there a couple of times already. Everytime I'm in Berlin I try to stop by.
Extensive selection of vegan burgers and some other stuff; I actually never get beyond the huge list of burger options. :o)
All burgers built to order, might take a couple of minutes, especially when the house is full. Very very taste and reasonable price for what you get.
Cool, alternative interior and setup.

One of the best vegan fast food places I know

Vego food world is my favorite vegan fast food cafe in Berlin - my no.1 place to go to when I need faux meat. The menu is mostly burgers (huge selection), pizza and the like. Their fries are fresh and have that "organic"/homemade feel (the unpeeled variety) and consistently taste good. I never had a salad dish there so far, but the small side salad that came with the burgers etc. was always surprisingly good (fresh vegetables, fresh sprouts, nice vinaigrette).

If you like Greek gyro/Gyros, then this is probably the best place I know for that. Incredibly textured protein strips, with fresh fried onions, and the awesomest vegan tzaztiki I ever had. Garlic-heavy though and ocasionally the gyros is under-fried, so you might want to order it "well done".

One potential downside (at least for me): I tried the pizza once and found it totally disgusting. Terrible texture of the faux cheese and *much* too salty. But I guess I'm biased, since I generally think real cheese (like mozzarella) can't be properly simulated, and I also think the inevitable flavorings found in faux cheese should be avoided as much as possible.

Very friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Order and fetch your meal at the cash register. They have a good selection of reasonably priced soft drinks and beers. Restroom is reasonably clean and well maintained. There's a piano, but I've never seen it played.

Location is a *little* off the beaten tracks, but not too much. If you're in Berlin on holiday, you will most likely pass some interesting shops on the way there. The new "boulevard" of vegan stores at Schivelbeiner Strasse ("Veganz" groceries, "Avesu" shoes and the new vegan-fairtrade apparel store) is within easy walking distance from Vego. There's also an omnivore Asian grocery store at or about Wichertstrasse 49 which stocks a surprising selection of faux meat products (to cook/fry at home).

All in all, Vego is highly recommended. Good cafe for kids too (if you like to have some fast food with them every once in a while).

Pros: High quality of food, Well worth the prices, Friendly atmosphere

Cons: Food sometimes a little too greasy

Bad even for vegan standards

I came here for lunch on a sunday, I was one of a few customers (i.e. the chef could not have been stressed).
I ordered the Summatra burger with peanut butter sauce, fries and salad.
Well, this was one of the worst burgers I ever had, blunt, no hint of peanut butter and the fries were limp and burnt.

Cons: Food disgusting

Probably my favorite vegan place. This makes me miss Berlin even more.

Not healthy food but it tastes amazing. Every single thing from the burgers to the fries to the shakes. A must go if you are in Berlin!

Good fast food

I've been here a few times and would go back again. It's a vegetarian/vegan fast food joint. They have burgers, chips/fries, wraps, pizzas and salads as well as desserts such as cakes and pastries. The decoration and atmosphere leave a little to be desired but then again it's not a restaurant and doesn't aim to be on as far as I can tell.

The food itself is good and I particularly like the home-made burgers. It's located in a very nice area so it's a great place to stop for lunch if you're exploring.

One negative thing is that the prices aren't that cheap. A burger, some chips and a salad will set you back a little more than your regular take-away... but then again it is vegan and probably better quality than your average fast food place.

Pros: Quick and easy food, Wide choice of meals, Great location

Cons: A little pricey, Drab decoration/atmosphere

A bit dingy, but good food

This is a hundred percent vegan joint that caters to the fast food needs of the animal health lovers. It has a huge menu of pizzas, burgers and hot dogs and serves good drinks including the infamous organic "Biozisch" in all Variations. I tried the seitan burger with delicious fries (thin but with skins) and salad at a reasonable price of € 6,50 and had a Biozisch guarana cola for €1,70 a 0,33 l bottle. The burgers cater to every need from a tofu, seitan or veggie patty as well as some with the closer meat texture that one sometimes needs. Takes a while when the place is buzzing but it's worth the wait.

You might want to wait outside if you don't want your clothes to reek of the oil fumes. The place could be a bit cleaner but hey - it's a fast food joint!

Pros: reasonable prices, huge variety, 100% vegan

Cons: a bit dingy, reeks of cooking oil, slow service

It is still fast food...but a good one

We aren't really the fast food kind of girls but tried this place on our first night since it was very close to our place and we were very hungry!!! ;-)
It is still fast food and not very healthy, the bun is a classic one so made of white flower but nevertheless we tried two hamburgers and both were very tasty! especially the home made hamburger from lentils...the french fries were very nice too! could have been nice if the bun would have been made of spelt or 'a little healthier ' but hey, it is a burger place after all and for what it is it is definitely a good one!

Pros: good value,

Vegan Fast Food Galore

Vego's has become my go-to place for when I crave some sinfully greasy food. I love their burgers, the pizzas are delicious, the veggie fries are heavenly when done with sesame seeds, and the prices are more than fair.
Unfortunately they're regularly understaffed, so the fast food ends up not being very fast at all. I have occasionally waited for my food for almost an hour. But they usually warn you before ordering, if they're currently swamped.

Pros: Good place for skeptical omnivores

Cons: Occasional long waiting times

fast & yummy!

Everytime I go to Berlin I can't wait to go to Vego! The burgers are really tasty, I tried the "fishy", the "cheesy", the "bacon".. all of them are delicious! I think the french fries are amazing, but I love the kalamaris too.. and don't miss the avocado mayo!

Pros: yummy, lot of options, great value

Great vegan burgers

We came here for dinner quite late on a Tuesday evening. Had real difficulty choosing between the 20 or so different burgers/sausages but the staff were very friendly and helped us decide. Burgers tasted really really good - wish we had a choice of vegan burgers like this back in London!

Pros: Tasty, Cheap, Friendly Staff

Cons: Not super healthy

AMAZING BURGER

I got the homemade cheeseburger and it was outstanding! I need to figure out the recipe; the consistency was a bit falafel-y and there were dried cranberries inside... sounds weird but trust me, it was delicious! The fries were nothing special, compared to the burger at least.

Best Vegan burger in Berlin

I arrived to Berlin a few days ago and decided to look for vegan places online, and I'm so happy I found Vego! They have a list of more than 15 (!!!) different veggie burgers, they also serve salads, pizzas and wraps. I ordered the hot chili "cheese" burger with fried and it was SOOOOOO good!!! The fries were amazing, and the burger, my god, the best veggie burger I've ever had. I'm going to return during my short stay in Berlin and try a few more burgers. This place is a must!

Pros: healty, friendly staff, amazing food

Great burger

I had the "Homemade Cheesburger" with fries. The burger was excellent, the fries tasted very good too. Unfortunately, a few other aspects dampened the experience: The place was cold (in winter), so it was very uncomfortable to sit there, wait for the food and eat it there. Even though there was only one other customer it took 15 min to get the food. I found that surprising for a "fast food" place. The fries where tiny potato morsels than fries and it was actually tedious to eat them.

Pros: excellent burger, all vegan

comfortable, friendly, inexpensive...

... and you can eat everything on the menu (ohne Gewaehr!)

I love this place so much, I go every time I'm in Berlin, at least twice, and I never get bored.

Maybe that's just me, but here's why...

Big BIG helpings, plenty of variety, a cosy retreat from the streets on cold days, relaxed and comfortable. It's fast food-ish but minus the grease, and plus plenty of organic ingredients and fresh, attractive salads. Don't expect cordon bleu - it's good solid stuff like seitan currywurst with (LOTS of) organic chips, great pizza options with fake cheese (I took an omnivore friend and he
thought it was cheesier than the real thing!) and loads of burgers to choose from. For pudding, there's often a very good tiramisu and your drinking pleasure is guaranteed unless you're a real specialist (in which case my apologies) - I recommend the vanilla soya chai latte, which my omni friend and I enjoyed so much (and this is his first taste of soya milk, folks) we had two in one visit.

The staff are nice, the service is good (you seat yourself when you come in and take a menu from the counter, where you also place your order when ready - the staff will then bring it over to you), the music is the right volume to enjoy both it and conversation. The toilet is unisex and clean.

Oh, and it's open all day till late and won't break the bank!

Pros: central prenzberg, big portions, cheap

Seitan currywurst...

Managed to go to this place twice in the course of a weekend in Berlin as it was handy for our hotel. I felt quite welcome even though I was at least twice the age of the average customer. The first time I had the aforementioned currywurst which was good if a bit chewy and not very curry-y by British standards. The second time I had a tofu and salad wrap that was delicious (and enormous). Everyone was friendly and the prices were modest. Make sure you order at the counter - I thought they wanted me to sit down at the table first time and then I didn't get served until I lost patience and went to the counter - but perhaps it was a misunderstanding on my part.

Pros: Vegans needn't miss out on currywurst , Good value, Friendly

Good choice of burgers

All-vegan burger place. Had their classic burger with French fries. Was tasty, but not amazing. The burger was very good, but the fries were waaay too salty. When this was said, all the owner promised was to have it less salty the next time I come. Nonetheless, service was very friendly. Was not the cheapest of places, but one sits neatly and the toilet is also very clean. There is outdoor seating, but in summer, the bees drove everyone back inside.

Pros: Burger, Atmosphere

Cons: Saltiness of fries, Bees outdoors

Good,fun fast food,vegan-style

I don't usually eat fast food,in fact,I can't even remember the last time I had had french fries,but I decided,since i was on vacation,I would just go for it. I live in Denmark,and we don't really have many veg restaurants,and we don't have any vegan ones,so I figured I'd try out something i never get,even when I'm back in NYC. I had the Hawaiian Chicken Bacon Burger with fries and a salad. The burger was great,for what it was. Definitely fun food. The fries were pretty great,though I like thicker "steak" fries,or whatever they're called. The salad wasn't so exciting,but fresh,though the lettuce could have been washed better. We got a chocolate cake,since they were out of the tiramisu. The cake was a little dry and no icing,but the flavor was surprisingly really great. Not too sweet,which was nice,since I like to eat sweets sparingly and it saved my sugar intake for another place with better desserts,but it was still nice to eat.
Would I go back? Maybe,but I would probably rather try one of the other restaurants in Prenzlauer Berg,first.Basically,they are good at what they do,and if you like junky,greasy,fried foods,on white bread,then this is a great place! If you,like me,prefer vegetables and nothing deep fried,maybe try somewhere else.

Pros: Fun, Different, big,inexpensive menu

Cons: Greasy, many versions of the same thing, Not healthy
