Best food you’ll ever taste - Edit
Visited Vegan Junk Food during our short visit to Amsterdam in February. Struggling to think of the perfect words to say about it here apart from that it’s simply perfect. Place is really busy, no wonder! the staff are lovely, friendly and accommodating who make sure you’re having a positive experience. We ended up eating here the rest of the trip and are coming back in September just to visit/eat here. You will not regret it. My only regret is that I don’t live closer!
Read morePros: Loaded fries, cheese spring rolls, Massive portions, , Friendly and laid back
Cons: None at all

If youre junkfoodie like me, 5/5 - Edit
Visited Amsterdam to eat every vegan food I could find, this place won the 1st place what comes to taste. Drawbacks: hecking long waiting time to get a table (1 hour) and almost equally long waiting time to get the food. Tables are also shared with other customers, we didnt mind but just so you know.

Food ok, service needs work - Edit
We visited on a Wednesday night and the place was packed. They got us a table inside pretty fast, but we soon found out why. The music was so loud you would have to shout to have a conversation. Drinks took about 30 min and food almost and hour. We had burgers, chickpea fries (yum!) and the snack platter. Food was ok, but I have had better (Mooshka!), for less money.
Read morePros: Quite a large menu, Good burgers , Nice variety of fries
Cons: No milkshakes, Food and drinks take a long time, Music too loud inside

Went here 2 days In a row - Edit
This was just what we needed after cycling round the Netherlands all week and eating food cooked on a campstove. The chicken burger was amazing and so were the bitterballs. So junky and delicious and the staff were great. Big portions so make sure you’re hungry!
Read morePros: Unhealthy , Satisfying, Delicious

Great food, service needs work - Edit
I’ve eaten here countless times because I’m an American vegan so there’s no better combination than vegan and junk food. I try not to come here when I’m starving because the service is sooo very slow. The key is to come when you’re hungry, about half an hour from hangry. Just when you’re about to rip someone’s head off, the server will arrive with a huge portion of divine food and within seconds you’ll forget all about how mean you almost just got. Then shortly after you’ll be painfully full. I recommend the McChicken and the sweet potato fries. That’s coming from someone who’s tried several different options and brought various friends to the place. You can’t pay with cash unless you have exact change.
Read morePros: Amazing food, Average prices for Adam, Outdoor (communal) seating
Cons: Bad service, No cash?! What is this, Amsterdam?

Good, but not good for kids, unclear items on menu, limited seating - Edit
Great food, but very crowded for lunch during the week on the day we went. I had a big salad with a side of fries which was delicious. I wanted to order the unicorn bread but I wasn't sure what they used to color it so blue so I wasn't sure if it was sweet or made with dyes or what, so that was one reasonI shied away from it. I had to order a couple of appetizers for my 5-year old boy since there weren't clear options of things he'd be willing to eat, so unfortunately he ended up with only oily starchy foods for lunch that day.
Read morePros: healthy options (not all "junk") , Variety on the menu
Cons: Limited seating, Few "kid friendly" options, Unclear ingredients

Happy Family Feast - Edit
Both the kids and adults enjoyed the food and everything was eaten which isn’t often with these fussy kids! They were happy to leave off the garnishes and extras that the kids didn’t want. I had the loaded fries which were fantastic. I think I may have to eat fries like this in future! We also tried burgers, onion rings, and hot dog. We had red velvet cake for dessert which was a little underwhelming - nicely presented but hardly any icing. There were only two dessert options which was disappointing as the rest of the menu was so big I had expected more of a choice. The other option was Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. Overall great decor, friendly staff, tasty food but expensive. However, perhaps that is normal for Amsterdam.
Read morePros: Great selection of savoury food, Funky decor
Cons: Only 2 dessert options, Expensive

Amazing junk food: My favorite in Amsterdam and beyond! - Edit
The Vegan Junk Food Bar is like a heaven for a vegan junk food lover. Their menu is terrific, with double burgers, a shawarma burger with an amazing seitan, a hot dog with 2 beautiful sausages in an enormous croissant. Gorgeous! I also liked the bitterballs, the fries, everything is perfect. The place has good vibes, is ideally located on Heinekenplein, and the staff is friendly. Prices are really fair for the quantity and quality of food you get. I would come back to Amsterdam just to eat there.

Wow! - Edit
After lunch our non-vegans said they would come back here for dinner. Great variety in fast-food options and portion sizes.If you are from the US and love the Veggie Grill chain, this is a must-visit, but don’t expect a Beyond Burger—these ingredients are sourced from other sources. Fast service: our party of six was immediately seated at 13:00 and we had food in under 15 minutes.
Read morePros: Great fast-food and drink variety., Super-fast service, even for our party of six., Varied portion sizes in menu options.

so filling and tasty - Edit
We tried sumo & "chicken" burger and loaded sweet potato fries. The burgers had a double patty and didn't look too huge, but once you start eating it... it's pretty filling. The fries were very cool too! My only objections would be that you can't pay by card and they don't give back cash, so you have to give them the exact amount.
Read morePros: tasty, filling, all vegan, more locations
Cons: expensive, no card, hard to pay with cash

Deliciously unhealthy - Edit
Sometimes you want comfort food and this is the place. Possibly the most amazing fries I’ve ever had! We sat outside and injoyed the view of the park while we ate.

Unbelievable!!! - Edit
Sitting here eating now and I can honestly say this as good as I’ve eaten in a while. Had the double mcchick’n or something like that. HUGE but very good. Can’t believe the 2 star review claiming it’s unhealthy and not for them. It’s literally called “Vegan Junk Food Bar.” I love it. You won’t regret it. Great location and atmosphere too.

Very Tasty ! - Edit
You must visit one of these if in Amsterdam. The menu is large and varied, was very hard to choose which to order! I went with nuggets and chips, both were tasty. My friend ordered loaded fries which she loved. Prices are a little steep but there is nothing boring or tasteless about this food! Staff were friendly and service was very fast. Very popular spot so would recommend getting there before the crowd!

If you're craving unhealthy vegan food.... - Edit
...then that's the place to go!
Read moreHowever, I found it quite expensive, and we had to wait an hour to have a table....OK OK saturday after the march to close the slaughterhouses was busy buuuut...
Went there with a few activists and it was fine for me because I haven't had lunch that day.
Tried the blue tortilla, which was ok, but come on man 13 euros for a tortilla....do not exagerate!
Not sure I will go back to this place, I can do vegan junk food for definitely cheaper than that...
Pros: If you like junk food...
Cons: They don't have cash back be careful, Crowded place, PRICE

Cool funky decor, friendly staff, and great food - had a sumo burger which was huge and stacked full of toppings, plus the jumbo platter which had some delicious items although was a little smaller than I expected it to be for its price.
Read moreThe only con was that they were out of a few things on the menu.

Night club bar vibe - Edit
We came too late for full menu so watch out for that. They stop at 11 but are open until 12am.
Read moreWe ordered the jumbo platter and some fries. The jumbo platter would really fill one person. It had 3 giant onion rings, 3 nuggets, 6 bitterfallen (meatball size), 3 cheese egg rolls. I think that's it. 17€50. It came with bbq, chz sauce, sweet and sour and brown mustard.
Everything was good. All fried so not healthy. Very tasty though.
Update: we went back again and had the Notorious Sumo and Daddy McChkn. Both were so amazing. I would even give another star. Both had 2 patties and chz. Big patties. The chkn was breaded. The buns were soft. The sumo tasted like a better big mac with jalapenos. Both had a giant onion ring. All the flavors came together so nicely. We devoured them in 5 minutes.
Another update!: We went again before we left and when we were really high. But they shut down 2 hours before closing because they got too backed up! Big bummer. Watch out for this. Check their facebook page before going. The sumo and daddy mcchiken are so worth it. We went to Kebabi instead but VJFB has better sandwiches.
