Best Of Reykjavík 2018: Best Veggie Burger

Prikið

Bankastræti 12

One might not necessarily think of Prikið—an antique diner turned hip-hop party bar—when they think of food, let alone vegetarian food or vegan fare, but they offer both. They actually have not one but two vegan burgers on the menu, both of which have their own staunch fans. The Ronald vegan burger with coconut chips may sound weird, but it totally works. They also have a burger-and-a-beer happy hour so drop in and try it out.

Runner-Up:

Roadhouse Reykjavik

Snorrabraut 56

Roadhouse’s grilled celeriac ‘patty’ is one of the best interpretations of a vegan/veggie burger. Without resorting to Oumph, or the mystery mushy patty trickery, it’s a clever, smoky, delicious beast with all the trimmings. It’s available in both vegan and vegetarian versions.

Newcomer:

Bio Borgari

Vesturgata 12

A tiny crowd-funded burger shack run by two young entrepreneurs, Bio Borgari takes clean eating seriously. Their produce is organic, their buns seeded, and their wafer-thin root vegetables would give Tyrell’s a run for their money. The lentil seed patty is crisp and flavourful. For an unconventional take on the burger, Bio Borgari is a good bet.
