Just because you are vegetarian or vegan does not mean that you should not eat burgers. Lots of burgers without meat taste as good or even better than the regular ones. I have selected the best vegetarian and vegan fast-food restaurants in the capital, where you will enjoy healthy burgers without any meat or animal products.
Furahaa
100% Vegan

Furahaa means happiness and joy in Swahili, a language spoken in East Africa.
This 100% vegan fast-food restaurant wants to recreate all the flavors of a “normal” fast-food while being respectful towards animals.
On their menu, you will find vegan fish burgers, double or triple cheeseburgers with vegan cheese and also the Furahaa burger, their signature dish: vegan meat, vegan cheese, iceberg lettuce, white onions, home-made American sauce, pickles and slices of tomato between two toasted buns with sesame seeds.
The fast-food restaurant serves bissap, a hibiscus herbal tea which is an emblematic beverage in West Africa. Studies have shown that it is an excellent antioxidant and that it has a lot of health benefits (helps to fight diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure and so on).
The restaurant’s founder wants to open a branch called Furahaa Break & Express to encourage deaf and hard of hearing people to work.
Price: Menus start at €8.90 for a drink, a burger and some fries (you will have to pay an extra charge for more vegan cheese in your burger or more sauce in your fries).
What we like: Delicious vegan burgers for a reasonable price. Gluten-free buns at your request.
