VJFB never disappoints

My first time eating VJFB food was in Amsterdam in January 2018, since then I've became a fan and I've returned many times when I'm in the Netherlands. Then, when I was going to Barcelona for a short holiday, I realized they also had one, so I had to go there and check if it was any different (it is not).

The food is always very good if you're up for Junk Food, it's nice to have so many good vegan options. From the very Dutch Kapsalon to amazing Burgers and decent (not amazing) salads, but maybe the joke's on me because I shouldn't be eating salads at a fast food place😄The Barcelona location is a big and nice Venue and the food quality is the same as the NL ones.

Always a go-to

Always really good even though I gotta say I prefer the ones in Amsterdam. The menu is a little bit different in Barcelona I think and it got served a bit different as well but overall nothing to complain about.

Pros: Reliable, Tasty

Cons: Prefer the one in Amsterdam

Genial

Todas las opciones son veganas y muy variadas. Restaurante ideal para sentir el auténtico sabor a "fast food". Es genial para llevar a gente no vegana y que vean que también pueden disfrutar de comidas de ese tipo sin comer carne.

Delicious burgers and cocktails

Everything we ordered, the burgers, the drink and the fries, tasted very good, especially the cheese sauce for the fries! The staff was also very friendly and I would surely go back again 😍

More hype than heart?

Firstly, this is not a bad review just little things that I noticed whilst dining here.

We arrived and it took us walking in and out of the venue several times to actually be approached and seated. My broken Spanish is BROKEN but, I tried as I feel ignorant otherwise. The server who showed us to the table seemed quite nonchalant and like they couldn’t really be bothered but I can’t judge for that as I know the hospitality industry can be soul destroying.

The restaurant looks cool af and we were seated next to the big neon VJFB sign which was mega. The problem with this was that we were tucked around the corner and basically ignored for a while.

We ordered, the order was quite straight forwards. My partner had the new ‘FIZZ’ burger and I had the ‘Kroquet’ we ordered a side of XL Cajun Fries, the Pink Truf sauce and some Hot chick sauce too.

When the food arrived the fries looked like a tiny portion so I kinda gathered that the XL was supposed to mean the size of the fries themselves as they were pretty chunky? The fries were also unseasoned so there was nothing Cajun about them but, I did ask a server that seemed to have swapped with the one that showed us to our table and she had said the fries were in fact the Cajun XL fries.

The Hot Chick sauce just tasted like mayo too and when I questioned that I was told it’s a spicy mayo (it wasn’t spicy).

The burgers were good, not out of this world but they were good.

We finished up and requested the bill which when we looked at it said “French fries” presuming that our XL Cajun fries were actually just fries? Regardless, we paid and off we popped. As we left we were thanked and it was pleasant but the whole experience just made me feel like I wouldn’t return out of choice.

Pros: Cool interior, Lots of options, Reasonably priced

Cons: The experience in general

Loved everything!

Cool vegan restaurant featuring fun, colorful decor. Very Instagramable. Moving onto the food: delicious! I had the sweet potato fries with the Royal Smash burger that had a black bun, cheese lettuce “bacon” jalapeños, and a spicy sauce. I enjoyed every bite! Also had a dark chocolate jar dessert. The cocktails are also delicious and aesthetic! Bottom line: go here!

Amazing!

I love this place, as soon as you walk in its welcoming staff allow you time to take photos in the entrance (amazing, you'll have to see it for yourself) and then you are seated and the wait for food and drinks is not long at all! It is magical, the food is delicious and the staff are so friendly and bilingual - firm understanding of English too. Thank you for this amazing experience.

Pros: All vegan menu (and yummy), Photographable content, Excellent staff

Cons: Expensive, Not a huge menu, but still sufficent

Honor a su nombre

Es exactamente comida rápida vegana. El problema es que la relación ciudad precio no es buena. 8,5 euros por unas patatas como las del macdonals me parece execiso. No está mal, pero no es ninguna maravilla. Eso sí, la decoración es fantástica.

Pros: Local muy chulo

Cons: Caro por lo que es

Hi Miriam,

We are happy that you liked our place. However, we are also sorry to read that you experienced our food as expensive. The reason for this is due to the fact that we develop, produce and distribute our key ingredients ourselves which makes it sometimes more expensive than average. Nonetheless, we thank you for your review and do hope to see you soon again!

Love everything about it

I love the style and decor of the inside. But mostly, I love the food options. Besides vegan burgers and fries, they have “seafood” and desserts. So many options and I wish I could try them all!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Lovely interior and decor, Down to earth atmosphere

Cons: Service (some servers weren’t as receptive )

Good food, but expensive

As the first Vegan Junk Food Bar in Amsterdam appeared, we were there on occasion. A true "snack bar" (fast food), a small place that grew into this amazing international concept. However, this is a real restaurant and the food doesn't come as fast. We enjoyed the food once again here in Barca, but it is quite expensive for what you get.

Pros: Quality of food, beautiful setting

Cons: Expensive, More a restaurant concept, The airco was blowing very hard!

Delicious!

Food was excellent! Cocktails were super tasty. Only reason I haven’t put 5 stars is the service was pretty slow/weird. About half of our food came out super quick, then the rest took so long that everyone who had got their food so far had completely finished it by the time the rest came out. Also a few of us who’d ordered drinks at the same time were given our drinks after food where as everyone else had got theirs before. Strange. But the food was sooo good and the place is very cool.

Pros: Delicious food & drinks, Cool decor!

Cons: Weird slow service

Best vegan fish

I decided to be bold and try the fish and chips. It’s usually so greasy that it’s difficult to enjoy, but I’m on a mission to find a good version. VJFB did not disappoint: mission accomplished. In fact, it’s the best vegan fish I’ve ever had. Husband had a burger…also fantastic. We got the chocozito dessert: small but mighty - the raspberry sauce was key.

Pros: Delicious , Cool atmosphere , Friendly service

Cons: Unable to try the entire menu while on holiday

Comida "rápida" llena de sabor

Comida inspirada en el fast food, aunque más bien es todo lo contrario, pues cada plato está muy elaborado y cuidado, tanto visualmente como a nivel culinario

Es un lugar espectacular para ir con gente no-vegana, ya que todo tiene muy buena pinta y un sabor exquisito. Seguro les encantará!

Recomiendo también provar los postres. No son propios (los encargan a una pastelería especializada) pero están riquísimos.

Actualización mayo 2022: han hecho redistribuciones en el local y ahora no me pareció tan ruidoso. La comida sigue siendo espectacular! Aún así pecamos de ingenuos y nos pedimos 2 patatas (no contábamos que las raciones eran muy grandes) y nos costó acabarlas. Como recomendación especial: sweet potato fries

Updated from previous review on 2022-04-26

Pros: Comida exquisita, Local muy bien decorado, Todo entra por los ojos

Cons: Mucho ruido dentro

First time I've visited this particular restaurant in the growing chain, the one in Amsterdam is already one of my favourites. Just as fun, just as bright, just as creative, staff just as cool and friendly and the food is as fantastic as the original restaurant. Definitely come here when in this beautiful city!

Pros: Creative and bright menu, Food not just style over substance , Fun restaurant, cool, friendly staff
