LOVE THIS PLACE: Best vegan fast food - Edit

Vegan Fast Food - Edit
This was a vegan version of going to McDonalds. We are giving it 5 stars for being good for what it is. The sweet potatoes fries were exceptional and the burgers were tasty. I opted for the chickpea burger and my husband enjoyed the smokehouse burger which was a soy based burger. It was a fun fast food eating establishment

I’m in DC for my birthday and this was my first official food stop in the city; HipCityVeg did not disappoint. - Edit
I started with the Philly cheesesteak; not a traditional Philly, but if you’re open to a plant based twist it delivers that savory, cheesy comfort bite. Definitely worth trying if you love a good cheesesteak.
Read moreThe Smoky Sweet Snack Wrap surprised me in the best way; crispy, sweet, tangy, and packed with flavor. That little snack attack actually satisfies.
The Wake & Bac’n sandwich was a standout; and they serve breakfast all day which is always a win. The JUST Egg was fluffy, the tempeh bacon had great texture, and the HipCity sauce tied everything together perfectly.
Now let’s talk about the Ziggy Burger; juicy, smoky, layered right. It gave everything it was supposed to give and then some. If you’re searching for a solid vegan burger in DC, this needs to be on your list.
I finished with the protein chocolate milkshake; smooth, rich, and not overly heavy. The perfect landing.
It’s also right across the street from Capital One Arena; which makes it an easy pre show spot if you’re in the area.
For my first DC food experience; this was a strong start.

So satisfying - Edit
This place offers vegan satisfaction bombs. They have burgers, salads, fries, Ice cream. I had a shake, fries, and salad and they were all amazing. They were very busy too, so it's clearly a popular spot with many people.

All Vegan Junk Food in Chinatown - Edit
Update:
Read moreYes it’s small but last two times I got very lucky and scored table seating, amazing service. Highly recommend - oh the snack wrap is very small so it’s most def a snack, not a full meal. Would come back again next time I’m in DC.
Original:
Absolutely loved my meal - ordered the Buffalo Chick’n w/Sweet Potato Fries and a Vanilla Shake. Devoured everything!
Only drawback is that location is very cozy, too cozy and there isn’t outdoor seating. I would totally come back for the eats!
Updated from previous review on 2023-03-05
Pros: All Vegan/Plant-Based Establishment in DC Area, Some Compostable Packaging, Location is Cute w/Friendly Service
Cons: Very Claustrophobic Interior Seating •Near Window, Recommend Switching to 100% Compostable

Great Vegan Fast Food - Edit
Seamless execution of a vegan fast food restaurant - went in and it was just like being in a burger king or a Wendy's except all vegan. Food was exactly as advertised and hit the spot.

Good variety - Edit
The chick'n in the wrap was crispy and juicy. Good amount of ranch. The onion rings were super crispy. My only complaint is the teeny tiny amount of ketchup you get with them. I could have paid .60 for additional cups but they were so tiny it wasn't worth it.

Excellent menu, I ate Chik’n Salad and it was very good. Kind of pickled salad, very good sauce and Chik’n cubes were good. Small place, but there is a few places to eat on the premises.

Holy [censored] batman - Edit
This place was recommended by our bartender at the Arlo DC hotel. Wow. It was amazing. My husband got the #10 Philly cheesesteak and I got the #2 crispy classic. I don't like onions and the Philly was still incredible. Both are amazing!!!!

Open Late! - Edit
My flight getting into town was super delayed; it was late and I was starving! I can never resist a meatball sub, and it was delicious. Also ordered the green smoothie to have for the morning, and it perfect thing to bring to work bc I had to be up early and didn’t want to have to worry about breakfast. So good!!

Junk food - Edit
The food here is kind of disappointing. The cheese steak has too much cheese, the milkshakes have an off flavor. It is junk food in every sense. Sometimes that's what you need though

Love it - Edit
The chicken and the meatball sub are my favorites. Only downside is it is often full with no seating.
