Loved it

Went there just before I needed to take a train to lapland and filled my belly with a delicious burger and some fries. A toastie to go- I asked without jalapeños, that didn't work, but it's ok. I would always come back and they deserve 5 stars 😊
Definitely recommended!

OK for a quick lunch

Called in here for a quick lunch when visiting the nearby Amos Rex art gallery. It's a fully vegan place offering street food such as burgers, tacos, grilled sandwiches & dirty fries. The menu isn't what you'd call innovative, but it's OK in a junky kind of way (I guess the clue is in the name). We shared some dirty fries and a kimichi & cheese grilled sandwich. Both were OK without being great. Worth a visit if you're hungry & hereabouts but don't go out of your way.

Pros: 100% vegan, Central location

Cons: No healthy options, Uninspiring menu

Just a simple vegan place

Service was a little bit slow, flavor was normal, not especially amazing and kombucha was incredibly expensive, 7€ and the price wasn't visible 😵‍💫

Pros: A vegan place in the main centre

Cons: Expensive kombucha, Very simple taste, Slow service

Geiles Junkfood

Das Essen ist sehr lecker. Ich kann vor allem die Tacos mit Austernpilzen empfehlen. Die Location ist sehr hip und gemütlich, direkt am Hauptbahnhof.

Decent vegan ‘junk’ food

I ordered the tofu and vegetable gyoza and the Seitan worshipper burger. The service was a little slow but it was a busy time so that’s okay.

The gyoza were deep fried not steamed/pan fried which I personally wasn’t a big fan of. The filling I thought was pretty bland.

The seitan burger I enjoyed a little more, the seitan itself and marinade was quite nice. But the rest of the burger ingredients were only okay. There was a bit too much of the garlic Mayo for my liking and overpowered the burger. But I suppose that’s to be expected if the restaurant is ‘Junky vegan’

Pros: Marinated seitan

Cons: Deep fried gyoza were quite bland

Heavy & tasty

The food is very tasty and "junky", the atmosphere is nice and inclusive, they even do drag brunches every now and then!

Burgers and Other Tasty"Junk" Food

Updated 10/10/24

Cook has changed and with that, menu also. Portions are smaller on certain orders but still expensive. Taste is okay. I have tested multiple dishes and food is still okay but not anymore 5 star.

I have to mention that pretty much everything else is still the same which is nice. Atmosphere is good, music isn't too loude and people seems to enjoy their time.

Great vibes with food

We ordered our foods in English with having to wait a bit as they seemed to be bit understaffed, but the nice decor kept us happy and the food arrived quickly ! I took gyozas with tofu and vegetable filling and sesame sauce, and no chix nuggets, so light lunch ! Thank youu

Pros: Many choices, Nice staff, Good decor

Cons: Bit of waiting

Solid option in Helsinki

Junk Y Vegan is broadly oriented around 'comfort food' in an American-style diner. It was pretty good - I had a greek Feta salad, some sweet potato fries, and a grapefruit soda. The food was a bit saltier than I would have preferred, but I appreciate this is in keeping with the style. I was only in Helsinki for a few hours, but this seemed like a popular spot and is good if you want a quick and substantial meal, with lots of options.

Pros: Substantial portions, Very wide choice

Vegan junk food

Junk y Vegan is a classic vegan junk food restaurant. Nice that this exists in central Helsinki. We bought nuggets/fries and a toastie. Portions were a little small and fairly expensive (though it is Helsinki). Ordering was via an app, though there is also a bar.

Excellent for vegan junk food. The seitan burger seemed to have more mayo than seitan, but it was better after we scrapped some off. The have it all appetizer was great!

Decent vegan food

Not special but good for a meal if you’re looking for vegan food. Cesar salad wasn’t very inspiring. Portobello burger pretty good. Kid liked chicken nuggets.

Pros: Vegan food, Outside seating

Cons: Burger didn’t come with fries, Salad too small

O Junk y Vegan fica próximo da estaçāo central de Helsinki e possui um ambiente agradável, com mesas internas e externas.

Além de lanches incluindo hamburgers e milkshakes, também há boa oferta de bebidas no bar.

Pros: Totalmente vegano, Ambiente agradável, Comida saborosa

Cosy place, good burgers

A bit on the pricy side, but the burgers are good. The fries were a bit dry unfortunately. Water is free.

Bonus: they have some free toilet supplies such as q-tips and pads.

Vegan fast-food gastro-pub

US-style Rock-n-Roll themed vegan gastropub, large selection of burgers, fried snacks and other types of fast food, but also some salads,.plus ice cream desserts.
Simple food, but good quality.
Burgers too expensive IMO, since fries cost exta.
Pay in advance.

Excellent food

We ordered a vegan combo with extra fries. Was perfect for two of us (we had had a big lunch earlier elsewhere though!) very friendly service and a good atmosphere even though the night we went was very quiet.

Pros: Good quality food, Nice service, Fun atmosphere
