It's not worth it, it's cold and the burger is super dry and tastes like nothing. Better go somewhere else. The waitress prefers to put on makeup behind the bar instead of getting ice cubes. You can't pay by card and it's cold

Was there on a Sunday with my son, we were the first, it didn't fill up until around 7 p.m. Location including toilet area 👍🏻 Food was great.👍🏻 We had vegan shrimp, BBQ sticks with chruncy fries and a delicious spicy sauce. 👌 Our waitress was friendly, but ONLY spoke English. I found it a bit cold there and the music was "extremely" annoyingly loud. It quickly became uncomfortable because you couldn't have a conversation. You could only pay 👉🏼CASH, unbelievable and unreasonable in today's modern world. A shop like this is missing in Aachen 🥰

Everything was good except the food. Small portions for relatively expensive prices. In terms of taste, the burgers with vegan patties are really not outstanding. However, the crispy things tasted quite good. Once and probably never again

There were two of us in the VJB and unfortunately I thought the food was really bad. One double cheese burger had “€1 Lidl” buns and therefore missed the concept. The Daddy Burger looked good but the sauce was horrible. Like the fries, which were very mushy and McDonald's style. And all over it there were old spring onions that had been cut too roughly. The music was sometimes much too loud and there were advertisements because the music was made with a Spotify savings subscription. No card payment was possible but the service was still nice and great. Unfortunately, I got AIDS and Tourette's from the food. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this clapboard. Dismiss the kitchen!!

Are always looking for vegan alternatives and that's why we stopped here. Unfortunately, a lot of the card was not available at all and only cash payment was possible. Burger wasn't quite to our taste either and the fries were very weak. Therefore only recommended to a limited extent.

The food was quite tasty. But unfortunately 70% of the things on the menu weren't there. I understand that things can sell out - but when that happens on a Saturday at lunchtime it's disappointing. The tables also stuck. The menu was also very worn and dirty. Even if the decoration and the toilet concept are good, the other one unfortunately didn't leave a good impression and spoiled the dining experience. Too bad.

Very tasty food and mostly very friendly service. The second waitress, who was there for a short time, was a bit strange. But still happy again. It took a little long until someone came to pay, but since it was busy and only one employee was there later, this is no surprise. The toilets were also very clean. The music was a bit loud and tiring/uncomfortable. Clean toilets, but unfortunately without soap

The ambience of the restaurant was very nice. However, the food wasn't good, I like spicy food but the sauce on the burgers and nachos was so spicy that it made the food inedible! There was nothing about spiciness in the menu either! Unfortunately, you couldn't pay with a card either, so we had to find an ATM to withdraw cash. It's a shame because the burgers would have been delicious otherwise, but unfortunately they were inedible and too expensive!

Half of the products on the card we used were simply crossed out, but when we ordered we found out that other products were also missing. Card payment apparently not possible for several days. Vegan burgers ok, but nothing more. Price/performance weak.

Where should I start... Actually, I've always been a fan of this restaurant. It always says everywhere that you can only pay by card, but for a long time now only cash payments have been possible (although the EC device works, I was told this by an employee). Most of the time some or quite a few dishes are not available and the staff is usually annoyed and unfriendly, which is certainly not the fault of the people but of the employer. I'm always a little more disappointed after visiting the vegan junk food bar. Food is still delicious...

Food is often vegan BUT this one today was a complete disaster. The taste is too dry and there is only pepperoni in it. The waitress was extremely bored. Tables were dirty. The portion of fries is simply ridiculous. Were here as a couple. I know a lot of vegan restaurants, but this one is by far the worst of all. Ridiculous for the price. Crossed out half the menu with Kulli. Not recommended.

Were there today and I was extremely disappointed. The food was cold and I could have made the fries at home (open the bag and put them on the baking tray then at least they would have been hot). It's really overpriced there. Only the service was friendly and after I complained about the cold food, I was given a small drink and a reduced bill of 10%. But for me there is still no reason to come back again. It's a shame because it was a gift for my daughter for her birthday.

Absolute no go shop. The staff seems overwhelmed, doesn't speak German, is unfriendly and doesn't seem to be trained, which isn't much fun. The menu is only available in English, which I find difficult for a shop in Germany. Above all, not everyone speaks English well and can read the map. The food is very overpriced. No recommendation from me

TERRIBLE experience here. Very polite on entry but then mood changes when they figure out we are English. Tell us it's cash only, I check if I have enough euros on us and she's just stood there giving us a weird stare. Then we sit and look through the menu and decide pretty quickly. 20 minutes later and she is messing about with cutlery. Then proceeds to serve another table that came in after us? At that point I'd had enough and stormed out, she looked shocked that we left but it was a waste of time. Didn't even get to try the food.

The size of the sharing plate was intended for a maximum of two small children, and charging €21 for that is audacious. The waitresses looked completely out of place and like it was their first day at work. The card said “Card Only” and when we sat down we were greeted with “We can only accept cash”. The music was too loud and was probably from the Top 100 from 2013. We also only got limp smiley fries. We could have made ourselves at home for less than €10.

My friend and I were so excited about the ribs, we have been to this restaurant several times and have always raved about them. We don't know what happened, but when we were there today we ate something completely different than usual (even though we ordered the same thing as always); The food we got was almost cold, even though there were only 3 other tables occupied besides us, the ribs had nothing to do with ribs, no BBG rib glaze, no spring onions, a different sauce, and vegan meat that tasted like it was it's a cut up, half raw burger from Aldi (no Aldi hate). The appetizer platter is no longer what it used to be, the only thing that tasted nearly as good or as good as always were the smiley fries (which are proven to be frozen goods). We also couldn't pay with a card even though it said everywhere that you can't pay with cash but only with a card, which is why I had to withdraw money and pay €6 in fees (which I would have gladly done if the food had been as tasty as always) . After a bit of internet research, we saw that the branch in Cologne can no longer be found on the official VJFB website, and you can no longer scan the menu QR codes in the restaurant itself or you will be directed to a non-existent one Website managed. Maybe this restaurant is no longer part of the Vegan Junk Food Bar chain and that's why the quality has become so bad? I'd rather go to Amsterdam 5 times instead of eating in Cologne again. Today 0 out of 5 stars, previously I would have given 5 out of 5 stars without thinking. Way too expensive for what it is!!!!

After throughly enjoying my dining experience at the vegan junk food bar in Amsterdam, I knew that I had to stop at the Köln branch whilst I was visiting. We throughly recommended the food bar to our meat-eating friends and convinced them that although they didn’t usually eat vegan food, the quality and taste of the vegan junk food bar would more than make up for their hesitation about a vegan dining experience. We arrived at the restaurant and excitedly browsed the menu, waiting in anticipation for what I’d been looking forward to all day. We made our choices and waited for the waitress to come and take our order. We ordered our food and then were told that 60% of what we ordered wasn’t available that night and we’d have to make different choices, with no recommendation of what alternatives would be similar to the food we were ordering. We managed to scrape an order together from the very limited choices that were left, and felt that although we couldn’t have our first choice, the remaining options would be more than enough to satisfy us and show the true quality of the food that we’d experienced in Amsterdam. The waitress then wandered over about five minutes later to tell us the drinks we’d ordered weren’t even available so we ordered different drinks, which when the replacements arrived 10 minutes later one had two dead bugs floating on top which was disgusting. There were only two placemats at the table for four people and the waitress had only brought over enough cutlery for two people. When the food arrived it was barely even warm. The restaurant had about 3 other groups sat at tables so it wasn’t even a case of the waitress being rushed off her feet. We ate the cold food whilst listening to the absolutely terrible Latin-reggaeton pop music. There were no condiments or salt and pepper offered to us so the food was not even cold, it was bland as well. When it came to paying for this terrible meal, once we’d complained the waitress offered us 50% off of the bug-infested drink, so we wasted €95 on an awful meal which truly left a sour taste in our mouths. I do not recommend this restaurant and will only ever return to the Amsterdam branch in the future, truly disappointing.

The hype is over... The restaurant is actually a pink McDonald's and the food wasn't warm. It's too expensive for that. The store was so empty and yet there was a long wait. A few months ago it was much more pleasant and even more special. But the service was really friendly and helpful.

More than half of the map was missing. The portions are very meager for the money it costs. The burger was cold and tasted average. The ambience is quite nice and everything is vegan, but in terms of taste I would prefer any vegan burger from Hans im Glück. It's a shame actually. The service was also rather poor.

I recently went to the Vegan Junk Food Bar and was unfortunately disappointed. Visually the food looked promising, but the taste was not convincing. Ordering was problematic because the waitress didn't speak German, which made communication difficult. In addition, four dishes that were on the menu were not available - so why isn't the menu adjusted? The burger, which was supposed to be pink, came in a completely normal color, which somehow misses the concept. In addition, only cash payment is accepted, which is inconvenient these days. The prices are also way too high for what you get.

VJFB Cologne is now a shadow of its former self. I would have given the store 5 stars in the past, but our last experience was disastrous. There were 10 of us there and the store was basically empty. The waitress served us after a very long time and then made us wait about 30 minutes for our drinks. Not all drinks were delivered so we had to get the rest ourselves at the bar. We had to wait over another hour for the food. When asked, it suddenly came to the table within 2 minutes. Lukewarm… Cutlery was only given to us when we asked, but only forks. When we asked further, we were told that there were no more knives. People kept saying that the front of the store was so full, but that was obviously not true. As we walked past the bar, we saw a waitress passing the time on Instagram. Many of the dishes on the menu couldn't even be ordered and the food we got only tasted like half-baked, warmed-up frozen food. I really don't know what went wrong here. I loved this place and raved about the food there. It seems like the store has lost love for itself. Please don't spend any more money here.

Unfortunately we didn't have a good experience here. Although there wasn't much going on in the store, our table of three had to wait a long time for their food. When it arrived, all the fries were cold and had to be returned. We then got hot but unsalted fries. The staff seemed listless and disorganized, the music on the speakers appeared to be from YouTube as almost every song was preceded by a commercial. Not so nice for the ambience. The songs were also repeatedly interrupted in the middle, apparently there was a disagreement about the choice of music. The staff argued loudly in the kitchen several times, which everyone heard when the kitchen door was open and was very unpleasant. The beer we ordered was no longer in stock, but this was not communicated and a different one was simply put there without a word. When the burgers came, they were really tasty, but we didn't get any knives despite asking several times. Although it is advertised everywhere that cash payments are not accepted, in the end we were told that we could only pay in cash because the machine did not work. Since we only had credit cards we were told we could go to the ATM. Our objection that this would probably incur fees, making the meal even more expensive, was not addressed, nor was the suggestion to pay online. Then, fortunately, the device suddenly started working again. Overall, everything took a very long time, the staff was often on their cell phones or chatting, we had to wait a long time for everything. The burger was really tasty but unfortunately that was the only positive aspect of our visit. We were really very annoyed.

We knew the vegan junk food from Amsterdam, so there was great anticipation. However, this shop has nothing to do with the restaurant from Amsterdam. The shop was dirty (food leftovers on the floor, a thick layer of dust was visible on the window), the toilet was a disaster and we don't need to talk to the staff about it. I've never experienced anything so unfriendly. The staff stood bored in front of the counter with their cell phones, even though customers at the entrance were just looking at the menu. When clearing the plates you didn't ask, as is usual, whether it was tasty and after you paid you didn't even say "bye". In addition, there wasn't even a smile or another friendly word, which would have contributed to a nice atmosphere. To eat, the fries and shrimp were ok but the burger was a dry and inconsequential disaster. The patty was undercooked and the bun was dry. You had to look for the sauce. If you don't like spring onions, this is the wrong place for you. These were spread over every dish, over fries, on the burger and on the shrimpz.

Underground: Unfriendly service, subpar cuisine and dirty. We were here almost a year ago and everything was good but what happened here? Inattentive and unfriendly staff, dirty floors and filthy sanitary facilities. The food is fresh but tastes just as good as any amateur cook. On the table flyer it says "Card only", but you can only pay in cash because the device is defective. If you complain, you can pay by card. Highly questionable. During our subsequent research, we noticed that the Cologne location is NO LONGER mentioned on the official VJFB homepage. Save your money. There's a lot wrong here!

We were there with a larger group but it wasn't too full at the time. The waitress was very overwhelmed and unfriendly the whole time. After asking several times, a cappuccino that was ordered was simply canceled with the words that they had forgotten it but that the milk had run out anyway and they were no longer making any hot drinks. This meant that A) you were faced with a fait accompli without offering an alternative or apologizing and B) much later, neighboring tables were still given hot drinks. Drinks are also available almost exclusively in 0.33ml, except for example. Cocktails. Drinks were forgotten. The fact that you can only download the menu via a QR code is cool, but what's not so cool is that the location doesn't have its own menu and you have to resort to other locations and for about half of the dishes it was said that you couldn't offer them that way . However, only when ordering. Half of the dishes came wrong and/or of poor quality and two meals were even completely forgotten and only brought after repeated questions and annoyed answers from the waitress. Unfortunately lukewarm. Even though the majority of us were still eating, individual plates kept being cleared away, which gave us the feeling that we should leave very quickly. It was no longer "our" waitress who came to settle the bill, but rather her colleague who was allowed to pay for the incorrectly recorded bill. Here, too, things were missing or things were noted that did not arrive at the table. The food wasn't bad but just ok. The service is underground in every form. The toilets are nice but unfortunately without toilet paper and soap. The furnishings are spartan and modern. The neon sign is cool. For me the first but also the last time for this franchise company. I expected more, what a shame.

Good food, service is unfortunately far from being good. Long wait times (60-80 minutes for fries, including having the food miss stuff at some tables) It says that it only takes card payment in the reataurant, but when trying to pay they claimed they only take cash, didn't save what we ordered in any system, didn't enter it in any register, only looked up what we ordered on the menu as we told them, added the prices up on a phone calculator and when we told them we didn't have that money in cash they told us to pay half of it in cash and half by card, seemingly having the card payment machine working again. Also didn't give out any receipts.

Well, I know good staff is hard to find, but I haven't seen anything like that in the catering industry for a long time. Orders are written in WhatsApp? And what's more, you have to ask multiple times what was ordered and some parts are still forgotten. With about 15 dishes on the menu, three are unavailable and the rest consists of fries and burgers. I was hoping for a lot more from a vegan junk food bar than a vegan MC Doof. There was no toilet paper or soap in the toilet and even 1 hour after we pointed it out to the staff nothing was changed. All in all, this place turned a gathering of friends into a real letdown and resulted in a lot of disappointment.

My friends and I do not recommend this place! It looks great, but it's grossly overpriced for food that is legitimately only fried and that you can get in larger quantities elsewhere for a lot cheaper. The cocktails were great :) The waitress wasn't particularly friendly. Half of the food on the menu was not available and it was not clearly stated what was going on, because there were outdated cards on the tables, which caused confusion, to which the waitress reacted extremely unfriendly. What a shame :(

We like to go to restaurants that are completely vegan, but our experience here wasn't the best. I have to emphasize here that the payment situation was probably not usual and something was special. In any case, you could only pay in cash, which is a bit rare in 2024 and forced many visitors to run to the bank again, including us. My girlfriend then ordered our food at that time. The map via QR code didn't work, so you had to access the menu via online Google. The food didn't come - for about 45 to 55 minutes (including 5 minutes to the bank and 5 minutes back) - reason: our order had been placed on the wrong table number and we had been forgotten. The waitress who asked us if we had already eaten was very nice and the fact that it was vegan was the reason why it was given an overall 2 star instead of just 1. The food itself is good. Except for the fries. Poorly made fries from McDonalds are fighting for a better rating. I don't mention McDonalds because it's bad, but because I'm comparing a fast food restaurant (price for a meal around €8) with this restaurant (price around €22). They were bland, there were spring onions thrown in, there was no ketchup or mayonnaise and I had to leave them alone. The burgers were good. No criticism there. Conclusion: Overall, I would say that if you want to eat completely vegan, it's not bad here - if there is an alternative that you already know, I would recommend it. However, mentioned again, perhaps the situation was unique due to the ongoing GamesCom event (which is why we came) and the payment situation. However, there wasn't much going on in the restaurant, which unfortunately didn't excuse the time it took to prepare the food or the quality of the fries. So give it a chance, after all it's vegan and therefore good, but with reservations and order more fries if necessary.

In addition to a lack of gastronomic experience, the staff also seems to have no human experience. The staff doesn't even seem to know what's on the menu, nor what the kitchen can offer. Ordered food is sometimes forgotten, hot drinks are put off after an hour of ordering that they are no longer available, while other guests are still being served with them. The staff also often seemed overwhelmed and annoyed. The food was ok, but nothing special. The dishes, which had arrived very late, only arrived lukewarm. The ambience is massively disturbed by the music, which is sometimes much too loud. I can therefore absolutely not recommend this restaurant.

The location is beautifully decorated. The climate isn't too stuffy despite the place being full. The food looks fancy, but it only arrived lukewarm when I received it. The service seems like it started yesterday. Completely overwhelmed and actually just trying to get to the next thing as quickly as possible. At our table we were asked several times what we had ordered. We waited almost 2 hours for a cappuccino only to be told “we are no longer making hot drinks.” No compensation was offered either. Conclusion: You can do it, but you don't have to. The high prices cannot be justified given the poor service. Gladly not again.

The music was the only good thing about the evening. It really hurts me to have to write this review. The change in personnel is clearly noticeable and not in a positive way. But let's start from the beginning: First of all, we couldn't order everything on the menu. Well, it happens. But not with every other dish. We had to wait about half an hour for our drinks. And a drink was forgotten, which meant we had to go to the bar ourselves and remind a member of staff. We waited a total of more than an hour for the food, and it wasn't until one of us went to the bar that they took care of it. However, the meal was once again incomplete. And cutlery was only available after we pointed it out three times. The best part: There weren't enough knives. We asked again for more cutlery and again only received forks. So I got up and specifically asked for knives. Answer: "We're not there right now, we're sorry..." Why doesn't anyone tell us this beforehand? Food came little by little, sometimes lukewarm, cold on the inside or rock hard/rubbery (from reheating?) Now butter the fish. What's going on guys, please try harder and communicate with each other and with the guests. That used to be a really cool shop with really delicious food and a great concept. But hey. At least the drinks were great and the music was nice. Too bad. You have to know.

The atmosphere and the concept are great - that's why we were looking forward to the visit. Unfortunately we were very disappointed. The food was okay, but not at all justified for the high price. At that price we would at least have a few fries or something similar with the burger. expected. €14 for a burger that was basically half a portion: no go.

The staff seemed barely trained and very overwhelmed, which was noticeable from the first to the last minute. I was told that the dish I wanted to order was no longer available on the menu in this form and that it now comes without fries. To my surprise, the dish came exactly as described on the menu WITH fries. We also had to specify what we had ordered when paying because it apparently wasn't saved. The food isn't bad and I think it's good that everything is vegan, but unfortunately the service is really bad.

The staff was super demotivated and disinterested, of course I don't need a super show, but it's inviting differently... the shop itself is also very run down (you can see that it's on the rings, where there's a lot of partying) - so here it is “Junk” program ;(

If you are craving junk food, this is the place: everything is fried. The food was ok, but nothing special. I wanted to try the ribs but they were out. The colourful sauces were cool and I liked the calamari and the fried fish (starters).

Unfortunately, our visit to the Vegan Junk Food Bar yesterday was one to forget. As many have already written, communication with the service staff is difficult (whether in German or English). Unfortunately, the waitresses were unable to provide any information about allergies or ingredients. This meant that two out of four people were only able to order fries. The burgers are tasty, but sometimes they don't come as described. All buns were normal buns and not pink or black buns as described. We chose the store because we saw it through NeoTaste and wanted to use a coupon. Unfortunately, the cash register system “crashed” yesterday evening and the deal could not be redeemed. We also had a voucher with us, which initially posed major problems for the staff. The store has potential if you invest some time and energy in “educating” the service and giving them better training. A little more structure (we had four different ladies taking orders) and better communication would also help. As of today, no recommendation. If the feedback is accepted and the service improves, you can definitely give it a try.

Unfortunately, really a disappointment. I had seen pictures online of pink burgers with delicious wings on them as a meat substitute. What I got was a wheat bun that looked like it was bought cheaply with a really “boring” not particularly good veggie chicken patty. The cheese was also missing. When we asked the staff about it, they came up with wild excuses. In addition, the statements made by the staff did not coincide with each other. First it was said that the buns were no longer available because too many customers had allergic reactions to them (ehm lol?) and then they said they were having delivery problems. Despite this, we got new burgers (but no pink buns, which according to the boss don't taste any different anyway) and we weren't charged for the mac and cheese balls as compensation. The burner came at the end when a person from the staff told us that he/she would like to quit. I wish the staff all the best, but maybe somewhere else. Unfortunately, I wouldn't come back.

All in all, unfortunately very disappointing. A third of the drinks could not be ordered because they were out of stock. Unfortunately the same thing with food. But while we were eating we were told that you can't currently get the burger as it is on the menu. Pink burger buns not in stock, instead of wings there was a patty on the burger and then we both forgot the cheese. When we asked why it wasn't the buns specified, we were given different answers (either allergic reactions from the customers or delivery problems!!!?!?!??!!). Extremely strange. The highlight, however, was that one employee told us at the end that she would like to quit. We were really at a loss for words.

Half of the things we originally wanted to order were no longer available. Service only spoke English, which wasn't a problem in itself, but I still think it's appropriate that they understand and speak at least a few sentences in German. Drinks came, and the wrong ones were brought to the table. When the burgers were brought, it was clear to me that it was the last time I was there. The names of the dishes can be so unnecessarily fancy, the cheapest burger buns from the discount store and the taste is subterranean. Then we asked why the burger buns weren't colorful as described, who would have thought, they were out too. Finally, payment was only possible in cash. Overall, a really poor performance for the price.

Once and never again. Order was forgotten, waiting time was too long and food was below average for a price that was above average. Overwhelmed staff and parts of the food forgotten without replacement. A pity

A good concept, poorly implemented. We won't be coming back. When we visited the restaurant was not very busy and we still had to wait 55 minutes for our food. We were also brought the wrong food, so we had to wait another 7 minutes for the burgers. The smiley fries were missing from the mixed platter and it was only when we asked that we were told that they were probably no longer available. In addition, the burger buns were not black, but regular burger buns. This information was also not provided to us when we ordered. The food was overpriced. The mixed platter was good to eat, but the burgers actually only tasted like a mixture of burger buns, mayo and onions. The service was also overwhelmed and could not help with questions.

I got to know the Vegan Junk Food Bar in Amsterdam and wanted to have a similar experience in Cologne. Unfortunately it wasn't comparable. Two of the three service employees were unfriendly. The food was lukewarm and carelessly prepared, no comparison to Amsterdam. Colorfully colored mayo/garlic sauce or flowers on the food might be frivolous for some, but I was looking forward to it. Unfortunately there wasn't

We ordered two starters and two main meals. We got also two beers. Last time we were absolutely amazed by the taste. Not this time. For starters, the beer was not available (lime ipa), so I picked another one. Then, we got informed that the place ran out of the fries and unfortunately I ordered freaky fries with spicy sauce, the ribs and Blumen. We got our food in 10-15min. What I got instead my menu item was not even a tiny bit spicy sweet potato that was put on the bowl like a dog food, no Blumen whatsoever, no garnish. Also obviously no smiley fries. The starters - we got spicy chunks that tasted like nuggets from Lidl that were cooked an hour ago and our beloved Mac’n’cheese balls were without taste. But those were at least warm, hence two stars review. The burger (sumo xxl) was cold like your ex and also not spicy at all. Buns were not fluffy and crispy as last time, they were just bad. Cheese was melted but cold. Veggies were fresh. Waitress was not amused and visibly done with her work and it was barely a lunch time. If you want bland food in a room temperature - highly recommended. But it’s been two days for me and I’m still sad I wasted my cheat meal day there. For 55 euros this should not have happened :(

I've never visited such a haphazard restaurant... were the service staff even trained beforehand or something? When it's ColognePride you have to expect crowds, especially if you're exactly on the demo route! Waiting 1 hour for a few burgers is, to say the least, very unacceptable... The food was delicious, no question, but we were also lucky to get at least the original burger buns, although not in pink as advertised, they were black but hey, better than what everyone got after us ... namely, immediately bought rolls from the supermarket... I would have refused the food and only paid for the drinks... Well, maybe another chance next year, but given the listlessness of the service staff, it's questionable whether the restaurant will still be there next year.

Quality and customer service has unfortunately severely decreased :( I went a year ago and loved it. This time we got our food late and with the wrong order, they replaced part of my food without telling me and the vegan seafood portion of the plate was a joke: two oily calamari and two shrimps. Place looks cute though!

Food was good, I found it really creative and can highly recommend the moktail. The music, the decoration and the gender-neutral toilets made me feel safer as a trans person and it was generally a really nice restaurant. I don't think the prices for Cologne are too high.

As a Cologne resident, you're always discovering new shops, even if they've been around for a while. So VeganJunk Food Bar, which I know from Amsterdam and now discovered at the CSD here. Positively surprised by everything. Only card payment possible!! TOP. There are wrapped fresh terry cloth towels in the toilets! Mega. Friendly service and the burgers are great anyway. Ok, a bit expensive and I'm definitely not going to use it every day, but you'll enjoy it all the more. I had the daddy burger with fries. See pictures. Yummy. Stay like that.

Very nice modern concept. The store is decorated pretty cool. It was very warm in the restaurant itself that day, but there were definitely enough seats outside. You can download the map online using a QR code. The menu is manageable and there should definitely be something for everyone. My girlfriend and I both had a burger. You the Mc Kroquette and I the Heppi Ribs. Both were very good and had a great consistency. Personally, the vegan rib burger wasn't spicy enough for me, but if you ask, you can get it spicier with chillies. If you're slightly hungry, a burger is fine. They're a good size, but something small to snack on would have filled us more. All in all, the visit was a positive surprise. Next time I will definitely try the snacks too. I can really recommend this place for vegans and people who would like to try vegan food.

Unfortunately my order was forgotten. It was probably because I paid directly at the counter when I ordered. Burger okay, but nothing special apart from the color. The fries are just like those at McDonald's, just not as cheap. Thin and anything but crispy. Also went to the toilet. Unfortunately, there is only paper in the third cabin. So if you're nearby anyway, okay. But don't go there again.

We were there together for the bachelorette party. There are only vegan dishes and I have to admit (for someone who loves meat) that the food tasted good. The concept with the pink and black burgers is a bit reminiscent of Spongebon SquarePants (the episode with the colorful burgers). The food is definitely an eye-catcher! The star deduction is for too much majo, so you can think even more creatively when it comes to the sauces. The ambience is also very nicely done. We would definitely go there again with my vegetarian friends.

The food is always super delicious. The vegan bitterballs taste exactly the same as “normal ones”, the gin and tonic is always great and I really like the ambience. As a queer, "left-green-slutty" person, I always feel very comfortable there. Unfortunately, last time the service was pretty slow. Every other time the service was always great. I don't know what happened last time.

I took the opportunity to visit the Vegan Junk Food Bar at the weekend and got the “Mc Cruelty Free” burger. The service staff was very friendly and I love the eye-catching ambience of the store. The burger was tasty, even if it didn't blow me away. Would definitely go again and try some of the other dishes. At a price of €11.50 for the burger alone, you can't complain.

Modern restaurant with an innovative concept in downtown Cologne. The Vegan Junk Food Bar only serves vegan food and drinks. The menu is clear, but the prices are comparatively high. The food was delicious, but didn't taste exceptional either. It actually took a while until my order was on the table. The team was very friendly and professional. Payment is only made by card. This is contemporary.

Everything was just right here today. I was completely happy to finally have made a detour here. If you like a vegan alternative to typical fast food, you've come to the right place in my opinion. Young, dedicated service staff, beautifully reinterpreted dishes that have arrived in the current age, as well as the menu cards via QR code (can be easily scanned using the smartphone camera, the target group is happy!). The style of the furnishings is also artfully current. Price appropriate for the service.

Nicely decorated store with an interesting food concept. Overall everything was very tasty. In one dish, a component was no longer available, but was replaced by another and only explained when asked. The fries could be a little higher quality. They are more reminiscent of McDonalds.

The Vegan Junk Food Bar is a really cool restaurant. We really like the decor and the ambience including the music. Unfortunately the first 2 things we wanted to order were no longer available (Virgin Coconut and Calamari). So we ordered the shrimp and were glad that the calamari wasn't available. Because the shrimp are incredibly delicious! The shawarma on fries is also recommended. The wings with rainbow sauces were less exciting. We definitely want to come back and try the ribs and hopefully the calamari.

Many things that were on the menu such as: the coconuts, where we were also told that they generally no longer come in. It wouldn't be a bad idea to update the drinks and menu... At times they didn't even ask if you wanted something to drink, even when they were simply cleared away without a word, even though some people were still eating. Didn't necessarily make you feel welcome. When we wanted to pay we were told that you can only pay in cash, even though the card says that only card payments are accepted. Even if it was due to the technology, this information would have been good at the beginning... The food was okay, but all in all we won't be coming back.

Our second experience with this normally super tent. Service was more concerned with itself than with the customer, after eating we had to wait a very long time for service because we still wanted to order something (while it was not busy) and when we decided to get dessert somewhere else it was up to us. Surprisingly, the bill is already ready on the bar? As if they had assumed we wouldn't order anything anymore. Too bad... partly because last time was a really nice experience with a super enthusiastic lady. I hope this was just a snapshot because I really like the concept

Unfortunately, the store disappointed me more with every visit, even if the idea behind fully vegan fast food is great. I went there twice and each time several dishes and ingredients were no longer available. The last time we were there was at 7 p.m., when the shop was still open for 5 hours (!) and still there was neither Zalmon nor Smiley Fries. This is especially annoying when you're looking forward to something specific. Unfortunately, the first time I experienced it was that we had to adjust our order several times because various dishes were already out. As a restaurant you have to be able to calculate with that 😅 I was also disappointed with the Caesar salad the second time. 90% of the salad is pure lettuce, there aren't even any peppers or tomatoes in it to give it a little variety and all in all I didn't think it was worth the money. Apart from that, in my opinion the service was not very friendly or even annoyed and the atmosphere for eating is generally not that great because you are sitting outside directly on the noisy street, where a few car drivers think they have to heat up. I wouldn't go there again in the future.

I got these filled balls with baking paper and the citizen roll had a hole in the top that looked like it had been eaten by a rat and pointing this out only meant that this could happen. I also work in the catering industry and no, that’s not allowed. The burgers were also still cold and the fries were dripping with grease. I hadn't eaten everything yet and everything was already cleared away. Sry was already in Amsterdam and was thrilled but this service in Cologne doesn't work at all

The service was very poor. There were four of us and we ordered 2 burgers, 1x fries and 1x shawarma with fries. A burger came after 10 minutes and the rest of the order after about 30 minutes (there were two tables occupied besides us, the occupancy was <5%). The burgers were solid, but the rest was unreasonable for the price. The fries were soggy and the meat substitute was just eggplant with too much curry (there was nothing about eggplant on the menu and we expected meat substitute). I wanted to advertise vegan fast food and was very disappointed. But again: the burgers were absolutely fine.

First I would like to emphasize that I would come back despite the average rating. The food was delicious, the ambience is great, I celebrate the concept and as a veggie you can really treat yourself here. However, I found some dishes or products a bit bland, such as Mc and Cheese Bitterballs, the coconut wasn't tasty (woody). The prices are quite high and the service is nice but sloppy (still a bit uncoordinated). Therefore: Solid, tasty, worth it, but not a top rating.
