Name ist nicht Programm

Ich habe bestellt, kann also nichts über Service, Ambiente ect. sagen. Zu Veganen speisen wurden nicht Vegane Saucen vorgeschlagen, ohne irgendeine Kennzeichnung. Alles bestand aus beyond meat Hackfleisch: Die Rippchen, das Hähnchen und das Chesesteak, nur anders geformt. Leider wenig inspiriert und am Ende bleibt das Gefühl, sich nicht sicher zu sein, ob nicht doch irgend ein tierisches Produkt dabei war. Das obwohl Vegan im Namen des Restaurants steht.

Giant burgers!

The menu here is HUGE, but that’s just to prepare you for the portions. They told me everything on the menu can be veganized, which is impressive since many of the burgers have special toppings like mac and cheese. The friend I was with is gluten-free and also had many options.

Huge burger!!

A ton of vegan options available here, you can veganize almost everything on the menu. The “small” size burger was still huge and came with multiple sides. I came for lunch mid-day and the place was empty, but it looks like it becomes a hookah bar at night. Cash only!!

Pros: Yummy burger, Good deal for money, A lot of options

Cons: Cash only

Wunderbar

Die Karte war sehr überwältigend, aber die Kellner super nett, haben uns alles erklärt. Die Preise waren auch deutlich verzeichnet. Die Portionen sind üppig, Die Kombination ist schon echt geil.

Absolut nicht empfehlenswert

"Go vegan" steht zwar überall an den Wänden, spiegelt sich aber nicht im unübersichtlichen Menü wieder. Die Burger sind zum einen absolut überteuert (30-50€) und selbst mutmaßliche Tiefkühlfritten kosten 7€. Zum anderen gibt es nur ein veganes Patty, anders als man durch das Internet denken würde. Die Burger wären selbst mit veganem Patty nicht vegan (z.B. wegen Mayo, Käse, etc.). Vegane Burger sind nämlich nicht in der Speisekarte aufgeführt, sondern man kann angeblich das Patty ersetzen. Auf Veganismus wird generell wenig Rücksicht genommen, er wird hier fast schon als Phishing genutzt. Des Weiteren ist nur eine Barzahlung möglich, was zu unerkenntlich ausgeschildert ist und auf mich relativ unseriös wirkte. Der Besuch des Restaurants war absolut enttäuschend, weswegen ich es niemandem weiterempfehlen würde.

Der Name ist nicht Program

Vegane oder vegetarische Optionen gibt es nur auf Nachfrage. Der Teller kam extrem heiß aber leider auch nur der. Beilagen waren lauwarm und Beyond Meat Patty war eiskalt. Vermutlich nicht lang genug aufgetaut. Berechnet wurde natürlich voll. Absolut nicht zu empfehlen! Und sollte auch als Option in Happy cow nicht geführt werden.

Pros: Nichts

Cons: meat first warum ist das bei Happy Cow gelistet?, sehr teuer, Eiskaltes Patty serviert

So, so heavy!

I ordered a classic hamburger with beyond meat patties and some fries. The burger comes with mac and cheese, nachos and coleslaw. The burger literary only consisted of the burger buns, the patty and a cheesy spread. Oh - and thankfully also a pickle. It is such a heavy meal with almost no veggies - only the pickle and the coleslaw as veggies. It was such a heavy, greasy meal. I'm actually not a health freak at all and love junk food, but this was just too much. So my advice for anyone going there: order a salad or something like that as a side dish.

Wanted to love it but..

Nearly had a panic attack trying to get to grips with the 20 page menu. Great that everything can be made vegan but was very confusing and hard to know if it was actually vegan...

Way too much food and felt super guilty wasting so much, just because you have vegan cheese it really doesn't need to be on everything 😅 it was also VERY expensive, over €7 for a bottle of water (and wouldn't give us tap). Wanted to love it but alas.

Burger Cheese frenzy

The cheese fries were amazing. The Bburgers are huge, tasty and the variety ist quite nice. Funny, nerdy names for their burgers.
Staff was a bit slow but we enjoyed eating there quite much.
Nothing for people who need to cut fat or like to eat lighter....

Pros: All options on the menue are also possible vegan, Amazing cheese sticks, Huge portions

Cons: Bit more pricey, Some people think its too fatty

Can’t recommend

I really wanted to like this place as I’m a massive burger fan but I just couldn’t.
First, the waiters don’t want to be there, the menu is extremely confusing to read with almost no price information so you don’t even realise you’re ordering a 30€ meal until the bill arrives.
My fries arrived so late I honestly thought they’d been forgotten and the ‘seitan’ burger was clearly made from beans and it’s difficult to tell if what you’re ordering is actually vegan :(
Disappointing experience for me

Not a fan

The burgers are huge but too greasy. There are better vegan burgers around every corner in berlin now. And the staff is just incredibly rude. There’s no reason to go here.

Confusing, overpriced, weird.

Such a weird place, even the waiter gave the impression of not being convinced by the concept.
I actually just wanted to grab a takeaway burger at a time in the night when everything else was closed. They were empty but still had the loudest music. Place is super dark which adds to the overall „shadiness“ and weird atmosphere that I felt. Also seemed a bit dirty. After looking in the super confusing and totally ripped menu and was told the price for what I then just said I was looking for (around 20€ for a burger with fries), I decided to trust my gut feeling and leave. (Even though really hungry.) I‘m always willing to pay good money for good quality and concepts, but they did not strike me as either of them.
Also read in other forums about being given real meat, unapologetic staff and cross contamination for nobody there really cares. The concept just doesn’t make sense for Vegans imho. And if it‘s just for the wastefulness of their ridiculously big portions alone.

Absolut enttäuschend

Wir waren dort mit Freunden da wir hörten, dass Lily sowohl Vegan als auch Fleisch anbietet. Die Speisekarte ist wahnsinnig unübersichtlich. Mein Freund und ich teilten uns den Batman Burger. Dieser triefte nur vor Fett, sodass ich mich richtig ekelte und er alleine weiter aß. Er selber aber gab auch kurze Zeit später auf.
Im Nachgang bekam er als Dank in der Nacht wahnsinnige Magenkrämpfe und Übelkeit.

Die Speisekarte ist sehr unübersichtlich und teilweise empfand ich die Kellner als sehr unfreundlich. Die Musik wurde im Laufe des Abends immer lauter, sodass man sich schlecht unterhalten konnte. Zusammengefasst können wir den Laden leider nicht empfehlen.

Cons: Teuer, unübersichtliche Speisekarte, unfreundlich

A nice crazy burger restaurant

A fun place to go to especially if you have mixed company.

Pros: Impressive burgers, Fun (a bit weird) place to go to, Nice salad and the burger was good

Cons: Were the burgers really vegan?, Didn’t recognize the Beyond burger taste, Expensive

not good - stay away

We were served meat by mistake and even after they corrected it, we were pretty sure the cheese wasn't vegan. We wouldn't return here and would much rather support restaurants that don't serve beef and dairy. "Beef & Vegan Restaurant" doesn't make sense.

finally vegan mozzarella sticks

if there's one thing i miss as a vegan, it's mozzarella sticks! and here at Lily Burgers they have vegan ones. of course it's unhealthy, it's also a lot of fat. but soooooooooooooooooo good and delicious. 10/10 recommend.
i also had burgers and fries here, they are also very good but really expensive, there are better places for that in Berlin.
but the sticks!! god damn yes!

Pros: vegan mozzarella sticks, cool interior/concept, many vegan options

Cons: expensive, can get very full

Go to the other location

If you want Lily Burger go to the Express location in Neukoln where they will get your order right and the prices are actually reasonable instead of totally freaking crazy. (Seriously, burgers here cost 20 euro.) Plus somehow the ones at the Express location are better (less greasy and had a very dry, hard party at the main location. I don't understand why this is.) Also I've NEVER seen a female employee at the "grill" location and it kind of freaking me out. If you are in Prenzlauer go to the all vegan burger joint Lia's. Better food, better prices, and all vegan. If you want a Lily Burger specifically hot the Express location

Cons: Crazy-ass prices! Probably get your order wrong.

Pleasantly surprised

After reading some of the recent negative reviews I was worried but decided to head there anyway and I’m glad I did.

The service was great - quite fast but I did go mid afternoon while it was quiet. The server was extremely friendly and took his time to explain their large, confusing menu.

The burger I got was their base burger with the beyond pattie and this was fantastic. It’s very tasty and big. Definitely satisfied my junk food craving.

Pros: Great service, Multiple vegan patties to choose from, Super tasty

Cons: Expensive

so realistic?

This place was close to our hotel so we went for dinner. They have a huge vegan burger & sides menu. Ordered a burger and it smelled and tasted so real that we were so scared that it wasn't vegan. It had vegan bacon, egg and cheese which looked like they were vegan. I was just so confused, but it was so tasty. Just left a bit shook. Burger is huge so might want to consider splitting it with someone. Also the whole thing with the beef&vegan left me confused. If you can make such a good version of vegan everything, why even praise meat and sell it, I don't know. The burger must be the best one I ever had, but it's all just a bit weird. Left with mixed feelings. I would have warned the vegans it was so realistic if I was the one making it. I wouldn't have doubted it if they didn't sell meat ones...


EDIT:

We came back here recently. I will say the burgers are still very tasty, but the service has declined. We waited over an hour, got one old half-ripped menu, which is now more confusing than ever, and the waiter didn't care to help us understand what we could order. It seems like you can get almost everything in a vegan version, but it gets suspicious like that, and confusing, and I would like a menu with a separate vegan section to be more sure what I'm ordering.
Also, we ordered seitan patties, and what we got was clearly a patty made of beans.
Huge portions and great fries, and also, it's very very expensive. So, know what to expect, and it can be good, or if it's not your thing just don't go there...

Teuer und ungesund

Zwar gibt es viele vegane Optionen, aber die Karte ist sehr unübersichtlich. Es gibt klassische Fleisch/Käseprodukte in denen dann einfach vegane Ersatzprodukte eingesetzt werden. Nicht besonders schmackhaft und man hat hinterher nicht das Gefühl, sich was gutes getan zu haben. Personal war jedoch sehr hilfsbereit.

Pros: Viele vegane Optionen, Nettes Personal

Cons: Teuer, Ungesunde vegane Ersatzprodukte , Unübersichtliche Speisekarte

Don’t go here

Didn’t seem to respect vegans, was given meat at first before complaining, staff didn’t care. I went 3 months ago so it could’ve changed, but I doubt that

Sehr leckere vegane burger 🍔

Cooles Ambiente leckeres Essen.

Personal war leider als wir dort waren restlos überfordert, teilweise unfreundlich, Tischreservierung wurde vergessen und mussten lange auf einen Tisch warten

Pros: Leckere vegane Optionen
