Vegan Temple Bar in De Weteringschans

A very nice place where everything is vegan. The burger and fries are very good, however, the bowls are uninteresting except for the vegan chicken which is delicious; otherwise, they're just roughly chopped raw vegetables and undercooked rice (hard and dry, like it was left over from the day?). There wasn't enough sauce either. For €19, you'd expect more attention to detail. Otherwise, the staff is friendly.

The best vegan food I have had on my travels so far. Clean and green. I wanted to lick the bowl. Staff were amazing.

This is one of the best vegan meals we have ever had! ❤️❤️ The Chicken Alfredo was to die for!!!🤯 The Smokey Temple Burger with cheezy b*con fries has made us want to come back again and again and again! 🏠 Desert is mouth watering 🤤

We came here for pudding one evening, I am lactose intolerant so it's quite difficult to get puddings while out. I had the stroopwaffles and they were delicious! My partner had the apple pie and he loved it!

This place is amazing. We were in Amsterdam for 40 hours and we went there twice. I love traveling the world finding vrgsn places like this. From the pink ans black buns to the choices of sauces. This place ticked all my vegan desire boxes. Love love love.

Very friendly waitress greeted me as soon as I walked in. She was very nice, and recommended chicken Alfredo which was great. Also loved the fact that the owner or maybe manager, was laughing and joking with the staff and even caught him dancing. You could see the staff loved working there, which makes me want to support them even more. As for the food, the Alfredo was great with no weird after taste, the chicken was very tasty juicy and crunchy. Will come back to check the rest of the menu

A great little place to eat . I loved the fact that there was no quibble when I asked if it was possible to add some extra things to my mains and desserts ( I love spicy things 😀 and chocolate) . The atmosphere was relaxed and the staff were attentive without being obvious. I had the cheesy chips and b*con fries and they were delicious with my plant burger . The portions were generous but my plate wasn’t overloaded . Yes , the menu predominantly offers fast food and it certainly isn’t a fine dining establishment but if you are looking for great plant food that satisfies your hunger then this is the place to eat in Amsterdam . We wished we lived near your restaurant as we would make it a monthly feature in our dining out .

Extremely delicious, very welcoming and lovely people.. Scrumptious..

I stopped in for a quick visit to have the vegan stroopwaffle. It was served with whipped cream and berries and chocolate sauce. Yum!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely recommend this place! The food was absolutely amazing – there was a great selection, and everything tasted incredibly delicious. I also really appreciated that tap water is provided free of charge, which is such a nice touch. The service was super friendly, attentive, and welcoming. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be coming back!

Amazing food, fast service and of course all VEGAN 💜

The starter plate for 4 persons was so small even for one person. Expensive but delicious vegan food.

Brilliant vegan restaurant- great choice and super friendly and welcoming staff. 💚

Went here for my birthday—one of the best vegan places I‘ve ever been to! The bruschetta and the burger were delicious, the staff was so kind aswell. Even my non-vegan (sometimes rather critical) family members were really happy here ☺️🌱 Thank you!

Great spot for dinner and we returned for lunch the next day. The service was 5*+ and they all made us very welcome. The food was amazing and really well priced for such a good spot. Whilst some restaurants still include milk in vegan food the Vegan Temple does not and the plant based cheese was great as was the main dish

Good vegan spot in the city center. I had a falafel bowl (picture below), a bit pricey but it's the average for Amsterdam I think. I did not try the burgers but they looked nice!

A bit disappointing to find out that they no longer accept the NeoTaste discount, even though it's still shown as active in the app. The indoor area is quite cramped with little space in between the tables. The food presentation is basic and could use some improvement. For example, the soggy paper tissue underneath the fries could easily be replaced with logo-printed parchment paper for a more polished experience. Given that the pricing is already on the higher end, charging an extra €1 for basic condiments like ketchup feels a little excessive. On the positive side, the burger itself tasted delicious and the staff were kind.

The food was very tasty, but my crème brûlée ended up completely runny. The service was partly very friendly, but one server seemed annoyed.

The carbonara is AMAZING and the staff is very nice and accommodating :)

We loved it there and therefore went twice! Tried the bitterballen, carbonara, alfredo, loaded fries, and a salad. Their friendly employee suggested her crème brulet for dessert and it was nice! 🥰

Very cozy and incredibly delicious. Highly recommended!

Wanted to like it more but felt the menu was a bit unexciting, particularly for the high prices. Would still come back to support the business! Lovely staff.

Wow unbelievable vegan food. What a great find on our street exploration. I wanted to try everything. We were lucky enough to try the creme brunette not on the menu. And it was exceptional 👏 can't wait to return next year.

Had a delicious meal on the terrace.

Delicious food!! The ambiance is also nice, although it can get quite cold in the evenings. There were two of us, and we paid €60 in total, which is relatively expensive. However, we felt the food was worth the money!

Excellent place! Delicious food and the staff are really friendly! I highly recommend it 🍔

I like this place and I went multiple times during my trip to Amsterdam. Food is amazing. My only issue is I got the feeling the staff doesn't like Americans. This is the only place in all of the Netherlands that I got that vibe. Just from a few comments from one of their staff in particular.

Really delicious food. We went there for dinner on a Saturday night and it was really chill.

Good atmosphere, nice people. YAY!

Delicious vegan food, would highly recommend the 'chicken' avocado bowl and ice cream 😋 lovely server, good seating outside and inside

Super nice food, Atmospheric place.

All vegan menu, endless options! 🌱 The staff was super friendly as well! Will definitely visit it again on my next trip to Amsterdam. :))

Great food and great place!!! We always want more vegan restaurants!!!

The prices are insane for what the quality is

The best vegan restaurant in Amsterdam.

Delicious burgers, gluten-free option available. The service was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about celiac disease! We've been there twice in three days now :D

Visited twice during a week in Amsterdam and couldn't recommend this place more. On the first trip my partner and I had different loaded fries each and both were amazing, especially the chicken satay fries. On the next visit we had the pasta. Carbonara was a pre-vegan favourite of mine so getting to experience it again was a joy. We say outside both times and the staff on both occasions were exceptional. Friendly without being over bearing and attentive to our needs. I especially appreciated the range on the menu. It's rare to find a vegan placewithb sucha wide choice. Thank you.

A bit pricey and the place gets very hot, but a wide selection and very good quality food!

Great food, great restaurant and great service.

Located in a pedestrian zone, nestled among other restaurants, the Vegan Temple Bar boasts a vibrant array of colors and a cozy atmosphere. The selection is vast; we had a hard time deciding, but ultimately ordered burgers, pasta carbonara, and fries with bitterballen. They were also very accommodating with special requests. We were extremely satisfied! After the generous portions, we barely had room for the stroopwafel dessert! I was really looking forward to it! One portion was enough for four people. 💚 We definitely have to come back!

Great place for vegan food. Different food options, I had the carbonara as it seems to be very popular and it was actually pretty good.

Amazing vegan food in the center of Amsterdam. Personally I needed a bit more salt, but that's just my opinion. The sides are pretty tasty as well. The staff was friendly too and it's very easy to vind. The stroopwafel is my personal secret tip, you have to try it!

Really nice staff. The burgers were great but the pasta was quite tasteless and overcooked. I don't understaaand how pasta with tomato sauce and a few vegan meatballs can cost over 20 euros...

Very nice food, good service. Atmosphere was a bit overwhelming. Lots of noice and didnt really feel relaxing.

The food was very good and the menu is rather diverse. The male staff member oddly brought the bill and card machine over when we had not requested the bill which made us feel like we were on a timer but the female serving staff were excellent and attentive and helpful.

Very good food. Met my expectations well. We ate pasta dishes and they were creamy and delicious. Also good desserts and a very good smoothie with pineapple, mango. Nice staff, can highly recommend.

Went with a friend who’s vegan. You’d think what are we going to eat, just grass? But no. Everything here is vegan and peak delicious. They have many dishes with a vegan spin on it. My friend could order anything and everything off the menu. So many choices. She was extremely happy. Her happiness put a smile on my face too.

Excellent vegan food, fast and very friendly service. Average prices. Recommended!

Great selection, food was delicious. Very friendly staff!

Food didn’t live up to the hype. Ordered the temple burger and Alfredo. Both were kind of bland, basic things would have lifted the burger, such as smashing the burger patty, salt and pepper while frying it. Undercooked patty led to burger being mushy Alfredo tasted just like a ready made frozen dish I had as a kid, nostalgic, but a flavour associated with a 2,5 euro price tag. Overpriced food, disappointing for a vegan expecting something above average

Really cozy place, very friendly staff, and amazing food! I highly recommend it🫶🏻

So good I came back the next day. Kind staff, generous portion sizes, and most importantly, great vegan food!

I'm a greek tourist, my dutch friend took me to this restaurant. I had the pesto pasta and she had the chicken alfredo. Both dishes were delicious and filling, and and the staff was very nice. It was unfortunately way too expensive for me, though I don't know if it's considered expensive by dutch standards.

Bloody amazing food and that's coming from a non vegan. We had a classic burger and loaded fries and they were hands down some of the best cuisine I've ever had! Staff are attentive but not in your face so and ever so friendly. Moderately priced as well which is a massive bonus! Thank you!

Food was basic and boring fresh food smothered with mayo sauce the bruschetta was ok but nothing outstanding, service was friendly and great beautiful inside

The food needed salt and pepper. Other than that it was delicious. I asked for ice water and she proceeded to bring me out a TINY bottle of water. I asked if she could give me something bigger and she said no. I was charged for the water. 2 more guests in and she offered them free water? I won’t be coming back because of that. EVERYONE else in Amsterdam has no problem with giving just a cup of tap water. I just wanted water so I could eat dude. Weird behavior 😭 I hope other guests have a better experience with staff, and there’s a full understanding before an order is put in….

Service was top-notch, even on the day of the Canal Parade!

Delicious bowls and burgers. It's a bit noisy sitting outside, but that's Amsterdam city center for you. Otherwise, everything was great.

Charged 20 euro for toilet for two people!! This should be illegal!!!

I try out a vegan restaurant in every city I visit, and this time it was the Vegan Temple Bar. We got a table for lunch without any problems and without a reservation. The food was really delicious, there was a good selection for the kids too, the service was very friendly, and there was also a nice outdoor seating area, a bit away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Definitely recommended, and we'll be back on our next visit to Amsterdam!

The burgers tasted fantastic. It only dawned on me while eating that they were vegan. The taste was extremely indistinguishable from regular burgers. The service was very friendly.

We called in half an hour before they closed and allowed us to put an order in. Everything here was super delicious and the bacon on the burger was surreal. The black burger bun is just for gimmicks and it falls apart a little too easy

Very tasty, but a bit overpriced. It's always nice to find something vegan :)

Good food but high prices. The beyond meat burger patties were not cooked properly. They were just thrown in very shortly to gain a black crust but the meat was not cooked at all. Tasted like raw beyond meat unfortunately. The waiters were nice, but very distracted and we didn't feel welcome to stay and order dessert.

On my four-day trip to Amsterdam, I ended up eating at this restaurant twice—and both visits were excellent. The first time, I had the Smokey Tempeh Burger. Unfortunately, I couldn't take any photos because my phone's battery was about to die, but the staff were kind enough to charge it for me while I ate. I also upgraded my fries to the cheesy bacon fries (highly recommend!). The second time, I came back for the vegan bitterballen and a stroopwafel paired with a beer. Both were absolutely delicious. On both visits, the staff were welcoming, friendly, and always had smiles on their faces. Great customer service can make a good meal even better, and that's exactly what happened here. If you're visiting Amsterdam and looking for amazing vegan food, don't miss this place!

I had dinner with my husband at Vegan Temple Bar in Amsterdam. It is a lovely place—for vegans and non-vegans alike—in the heart of Amsterdam. Because my husband prefers plant-based food, it is very nice to be somewhere where *every* dish on the menu is an option. The selection is huge: from burgers to loaded fries, pastas, and salads. I am not a vegan myself, but I had a delicious meal! We both went for a burger; I chose the restaurant's signature burger. I was a bit skeptical about plant-based cheese beforehand, but that turned out to be completely unnecessary. The melted cheese over my burger was deliciously creamy; it was somewhat like a cheese sauce. Additionally, the friendly staff stood out. When the waiter handed me my plate of food, it was a bit clumsy, and I spilled an entire glass of Aperol Spritz all over myself. The staff handled this incredibly sympathetically. I immediately received a new glass, and they brought us a free dessert later on (stroopwafel, yummy!). It wasn't necessary, but it did ensure that we left feeling good.

Everything is vegan. The menu is great and the food is delicious. Service was good and the atmosphere was good too. Staff were great. Can't wait to return and try more of the menu.

Visiting Amsterdam for the first time. Just had an amazing falafel burger and fries. A few GF options if you ask. A bit pricey but worth it! Filling and delicious.

The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were incredibly friendly. The atmosphere was very comfortable. The menu is also available in English.

Super friendly staff, delicious pasta, and the highlight: it was my mum's birthday and she received a surprise dessert :)

Excellent burgers and pasta and smoothies !!

Wonderful vegan food. Avocado chicken bowl is delicious!

Temple Burger was a 10/10!! The sweet potato fries were some of the best ever, I highly recommend them :)

We went there tonight on our last day in Amsterdam and had an wonderful evening. The food was incredibly good (we had burgers with fries) and the service was amazing. In the end we had a really nice, interesting chat with the owner (who also served us) and when we wanted to leave, he told us to wait five minutes and came back with a stroopwaffle, which tasted just as good as the burgers. We‘ll definitely come back for the great food and nice people! Thank you for a wonderful dinner :)

We love it every time we go! Great vegan food. Nachos, burgers, loaded fries, desserts & much more. Highly recommend.

This could just as well be my death bed meal! I just made so much love to the temple burger and loaded bacon fríes! Gave this review a 5, cause i couldn’t give it a 10 (hubba hubba xx)

The burger was decent but not amazing for the price, and the fries were frozen and undercooked. It's a shame, because the staff are very friendly, but the food clearly doesn't live up to its current 4.7 rating.

Outside table was a little unstable. The burger was tasty, but the bun was a little dry. They did an amazing job on the beyond patty.

Truly delicious. This has got to be one of the best vegan places I’ve been to - massive menu, and everything I ate was delicious. Non-vegan family members were impressed too! Would definitely recommend the carbonara - creamy and smoky, and the Parmesan is unbelievable. As someone who makes vegan cheese as a hobby, THAT is the level that I aspire to. Would 100% recommend to vegans and non-vegans alike!

All-in-all best vegan food I have had in Amsterdam. Kind service and cozy atmosphere!!!

Nice restaurant and delicious food.

Great food and friendly service!

Really good service and the food is amazing. Loved it!

Vegan heaven!! In a cute little street, very kind staff. Everything perfect.

It was delicious. The burger was very juicy! And I had my food on the table within 10 minutes.

After reading all the positive reviews, we thought we'd give it a try ourselves. Luckily, we were able to sit outside because it was really too hot inside. Unfortunately, the reviews didn't do the food justice, and after the first dish (the fried falafels were rock hard), we quickly paid and went looking for something to enjoy for the rest of our evening. Not recommended.

Delicious vegan food, with plenty of variety on the menu. We visited multiple times during our stay in Amsterdam and would highly recommend the ‘cheezy bacon’ loaded fries and stroopwafel!

The food itself was tasty, but way too expensive for the amount you get.

Delicious vegan food with a menu full of amazing options, and fast and friendly service. Highly recommend making a stop here and supporting a vegan business! I had the temple burger and it was so good and juicy.

Fabulous vegan restaurant on a charming alley! Terrific food. Great service.

One of the best vegan restaurants I've ever been to! The food was absolutely delicious—easily one of the best vegan meals I've had. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel very welcome. We even received a complimentary dessert because we got along so well with them, which was such a kind and thoughtful gesture. Highly recommended if you're looking for amazing vegan food and a warm, welcoming atmosphere!

very good vegan food! the pasta was incredible 🥰

Sat outside - it was quiet, but you can sit inside or out. Had the carbonara which was lovely and reminded me of when I did eat meat. Also got to try Bitterballen. Totally loved them, only down side was they came with mustard for dipping which I’m not a fan of in any event. That said they were tasty without dipping. Not cheap but worth what you pay.

Vegan crazy fries, burgers, ginger juice. A vegan gem

Great vegan food, fries are crazy, super excellent ginger juice, burgers are great too.

I can highly recommend it – a very tasty, fully vegan dish.

Great food and atmosphere lovely staff thanks

good portions and really good food!!

The food and the waiters were amazing!

What a wonderful experience this was. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the food was truly fantastic. Everything here looks meticulously presented. The presentation on the plates is beautiful, such as the clean lines of the chocolate sauce over the waffles. The burgers and the generously topped fries also tasted exactly as you would hope. Highly recommended for anyone in the area.
