Voner is a best known vegan fast food in Berlin serving vegan and vegetarian versions of the traditional döner. Their house made vegan meat is cooked on a rotating kebab spit, just like döner meat, and is carved off to order. Hot slices of this meat are wedged between a piece of thick pitta bread and garnished with the sauce of your choice and some fresh veggies. All for 3.40€.

They also have special chips with grilled onions, cheesy sauce and some spices (if you want vegan cheese you have to specify it), and also seitan nuggets with fires and salad, fish and chips or some daily desserts, like cookies or cake.

    That is super cool. I am not surprised that there are so many available. I would think, especially these days, that there are vegetarians everywhere! lol…

    1. @Amy, it is definitely becoming more and more the case, even in Paris where they love meat!

  2. Andi of My Beautiful Adventures says:

    These all sound SO good!

    1. @AndiP, I am sure you know all the good vegetarian spots all over the world!

  3. I love how that wall looks like the graffiti on the Berlin Wall. And a kid’s menu!

    1. @Jen, I know I think that looks like my favorite spot…except maybe the food truck!

    It’s really nice to know that there are a lot of available food chain for vegetarians now, unlike before there are only few who offer vegetarian foods.

    1. @BaiedeGoji, I agree, it is refreshing to see.

  5. I’m a little surprised at how many of these vegetarian restaurants focus on fake meat instead of, you know, vegetables. But I definitely wouldn’t turn my nose up at a Sun Day Burger — in fact, it sounds so good, I might have to create my own!

    1. @Ann, you I didn’t think about it, but it is quite surprising. I have a co-worker on my team who is a vegetarian and she said things like seitan are a revolution and a lot of vegetarians are eating it up (sorry I couldn’t resist) and she thinks the “fad” will quiet down a bit. Having tried a lot of bad veggie burgers, I’ve tried a few seitan items and an amazing beet burger and they are definitely making strides any really awesome vegetarian food. I am not a vegetarian but I dreamed about that beet burger for at least a week after eating it!

    Vegetarian restaurants in Germany? Okay, that’s shocking. I mean, I know perhaps deep down they’d have to exist, but Germany is such a meat-lovers paradise — who knew? I didn’t. And vegan fast food? I’m not vegan, but still. This post produced a ‘wow’ moment. I had no idea, but this is great to find out!

    1. @BrainyPintSizer, I thought the same way about vegetarian restaurants in Paris, but I went to one in January and was amazed at how good it is, and there are more opening all the time!

  7. I feel lucky that where I live there are a number of places I can go out to eat as a vegetarian, but I’m jealous of all the different kinds of places they have there.

  8. Barbara Stenby says:

    I can’t believe so many vegan options! as a mom of a vegan i am just discovering all this too I am glad such options are becoming readily available (more mainstream) so that if he travels abroad he will find some great food !

    1. @Barbara, it is becoming more and more prevalent all over the world. In the last 2 years vegan and gluten-free restaurants have exploded in Paris!
