The best fast food burger in Sweden - Edit
Max always has the best fast food in Sweden, and a bunch of great vegan options.
Read moreThey are all the same and they manage to get the exact same burger to you wherever you are which is kinda crazy.

They actually cooked a vegan burger well. I am still in shock - Edit
I loved the vegan beef burger. They cooked the patty so it was grilled and hot, but still moist and red in the middle. It was strange, I wasn’t used to this for fast food.

Cheap burger - Edit
Pretty disgusting burger, but cheap when your burger is running low!
Read moreYou order on a screen which has a separate vegan/vegetarian menu page. It is easy to customise the meal e.g. to add an extra burger

Good basic fast food - Edit
The machine for ordering is clear and easy to use. There are usually 3 vegan burger options and many more vegetarian ones. Do not expect anything fancy or mind blowing food. They also offer plant based shakes that are a sweet deal.

Cons: Horrible toilet (bring your own paper)

NOT vegan - Edit
I asked them to check the ingredients and allergens list - they did and told me that none of the sandwiches are actually vegan and can’t be made vegan. Didn’t know the difference between vegetarian and vegan. Maybe this person didn’t know what they were talking about, but make sure you ask to be sure.

McDonalds style - Edit
The burgers are tasty, simple and small, exactly like in McDonalds. I wouldn’t eat here regularly, but I was satisfied with the number of vegan options.

Bland burgers - Edit
The self-service machines offer an English menu, including the ingredients for each item (as far as I could tell).
Read moreEach time I added a burger to the basket, as well as right before paying, I was asked if I wanted to add anything to it - no, I'm good, stop hassling me.
I order the vegan beef burger and the vegan buffalo burger. The former was as bland as can be, the latter had some spice (though less than I had hoped for, but about as much as I expected).
Not good, but also one of the few options near the central train station at 11pm on a Sunday.

Not what I expected - Edit
I have eaten at Max in Norway many times, and find their burgers pretty OK. The Swedish menu seemed to be a bit different, and I went for the burger that looked the most similar to the one I normally go for in Norway (Crispy no Chicken). Unfortunately, it (Crispy Supreme Sandwich) wasn't half as nice as the Norwegian one. The plant based luxury peach shake was good, though.

Would give 5 stars if I could - Edit
Max burger is kind of like a slightly nicer McDonald's. The menu is almost split in two with a meat menu and a vegan menu. There are vegan options for most things including a faux chicken burger, faux beef, and salads. There are also plant shakes which are excellent.
Read morePros: Lors of vegan options , Lots of seating
Cons: Fast food rather than restaurant service

Mediocre Fast Food - Edit
I appreciate how wide their “green line” is, although most of the options are vegetarian and currently only two burgers are plant-based 🌿
Read moreThe Crispy No Chicken wasn’t bad but the there’s definitely space for improvement - especially the taste (in my opinion a bit tasteless).
The chocolate “milkshake” (far from being one) was too thick and fat, I had a hard time drinking it.
I would also point out how it’s more expensive than other fast food brands, so overall it didn’t convince me.

Surprisingly really good burgers - Edit
Convenient option on a whim. Ordered the no chicken burger, non-dairy strawberry shake & no chicken bbq burger and it was awesome. One of the crispiest vegan chicken patties I've ever tried. Props to the guy that was nonstop cleaning too. The restaurant was quite clean to be a fast food place. Higher quality than a McDonald's for sure.

Great vegan burgers! - Edit
MAX is a huge chain in Sweden and for a good reason!
Read moreThey do serve meat burgers as well but the vegan options are just as good!
The non chicken burger was crispy and delicious and tasted almost like real chicken.
Price is a bit high but I guess that’s considered normal here in Sweden.
Pros: Good vegan options!
Cons: A tad expensive

best vegan burger i had - Edit
i went to the branch in norrtullsgatan. they had a few vegan burger options and sauces. might be the best vegan burger i have ever had. i had the “chicken” burger and the patty wasn’t greasy or heavy, it was just perfect. had mustard and kbbq sauces which were also very delicious. could be cheaper but i would definitely go again

It’s a huge food chain in Sweden. They’re environmentally conscious for a fast food restaurant. They have some great vegan options. It’s a good deal if you’re in for some fast food.

better than mcdonalds - Edit
visited last may. i was surprised by the number of vegan things they had. pleasantly surprised. also pretty mind blowing that a fast food chain would have this many options. better than the swedish mcdonalds. if you love vegan junk food, which i do, definitely worth coming to. and the shakes were pretty good. i had the chocolate one and a pear one at another branch with a non-vegan swedish friend. i guess it would be a great place if you have different diets.

Options vegan - Edit
Cool pour casser la croûte, il y a un burger "chicken" vegan, un bbq burger vegan et un burger "beef" vegetarien (steak moins bon qu'un beyond meat mais pas mal quand mm) mais qui peut devenir vegetalien en changeant quelques options ... comme la Mayo sans œuf par exemple (goût sauce pomme frite de chez mc do) ça dépanne bien en tout cas ..
Read morePros: Rapide et le personnel agréable
Cons: steak a la friteuse, très très gras

Tasty fast food - Edit
Surprisingly wide choice of veg options, vegan burgers and ! shakes ! and some nice dips, so you can get the whole veg menu with fries for accetable price (concerning being in Stockholm) even at very late hours.

Vegan Fast Food - easy ordering - Edit
Seeing they had a green menu, I was curious about what was on offer. They had a couple of vegan options - the burger was fast food but was tasty. The other consideration is that not speaking Swedish, you can order via the digital kiosk in english, tailoring your order. Sometimes in another culture it can get a bit fatiguing going through the whole plant-based explanation every meal (although this is becoming less of an issue).
Read morePros: Fast service, Good Value for Sweden, Easy
Cons: Junk Food

Convenient but - Edit
Since they're everywhere, it's a convenient franchise, especially now that they've really upped their veggie selection. But not exactly a place I'd visit having a proper alternative.
Read moreCons: Actually quite expensive for what you get, Fast-food franchise - the opposite of cozy
