LOVED this place!! We stopped by for my sister's bachelorette party - she is vegetarian and sometimes has a hard time finding good vegetarian food where she lives, and she was so thrilled with this place.
I had their Buffalo chick'n sandwich and honestly it was delicious. The employees there were so amazing and friendly. Really a solid fast casual place. Their sweet potato fries are also great too.
The food was good and the chocolate shake was perfect! I had an order of nuggets and the Smokehouse Burger. The wasn't anything particularly extraordinary about the burger but it was tasty. The sauces were good but my fav was the hiocity sauce. Sweet and very reminiscent of ChickFil sauce. My friend had the Jerk chicken salad and said it was good. Next time I'm in the area, I'd definitely like to try other menu items.
The space is bright and colorful with music piped throughout. Only negative is that it took a very long time for someone to clean off a table for us to sit at (I had to ask a couple times).
HipCityVeg is an oasis. Fast vegan food when you need it. Stop in for a quick bite to go or dine in if you have a minute. Everything I tried while in DC was worth getting a second time. I don't think you can go wrong.
This is a new restaurant that opened in the elite Dupont area of NW DC. This area in general is a gourmet foodie delight and the competition for customers is fierce with several top of the line food places within a few blocks radius.
HipCituVeg is a vegan place primarily specializing in mock meat. They sell the impossible meat burgers, tempeh burgers and “chicken” fajitas among other things. The food is good but I felt the portions are relatively small. They prefer you do takeout since the seating is limited. I tried their burger and fajita and both were very tasty.
Overall the place is great and I hope they survive the competition. There was another vegan restaurant (Native Foods) that had opened across the Connecticut Ave 5 years ago. They were a lot bigger and a lot more popular than this place but eventually closed down. I am keeping my fingers crossed that these guys survive.
The place is definitely recommended, at least as a check out.
As someone who loves burgers and the environment, HipCityVeg is a paradise for me and I am so glad they have opened DC locations. I first ate there at their location in Philly and I was hooked. They have delicious vegan food, remarkable shakes, and their sweet potato fries are to die for. Not to mention that the staff is friendly and always happy to provide recommendations and the restaurant is always clean and welcoming. Even my meat eater friend that I took there said, "I keep forgetting this is vegan" as he ate his burger. At the end of the meal, I was able to put all packaging in the compost and leave with a smile on my face and a feeling that I was making the right decision on where to spend my money.
I took a pleasant stroll in Dupont Circle neighborhood and I came across a wonderful veggie joint.
I just started to stop in because I originally was going to go to a day party, however due to the massive turn out and my fear of catching Covid I decided not to enter into the building. And instead use my money to enjoy a tasty savory “burger”. Now this hip city veg joint seemed very inviting from eyeing them from across the street. A lot of bright colors very open and airy floor to ceiling windows and clean marketing spaces.
The entire menu is veggie so not to worry for all you vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian lovers. If you have a craving of chicken, steak, or burger, this is your place! Without harboring all of the guilt.
I had a tasty Ziggy burger with the famous special sauce. I will definitely come back and try their “chikn -nuggets”.
My only suggestion would be to explain on the menu what a customer is actually eating (detailed ingredients- some people are allergic to soy etc). I know whats in Beyond burgers however I don’t know what kind of plant-based meat is used for the other options. I had to ask the plant manager -(very cute play on word play on their apron) ☺️
A great location on Connecticut Avenue NW, just south of Dupont Circle. Once you step into the shop, you are warmly greeted by the staff.
I love the layout of this restaurant.
All food items on the menu are plant based. Each is seasoned well, and tasty!
My favorite, the Philly Steak. I have them add avocado slices to it. Perfect!
INCREDIBLE LATE NIGHT OPTION IN DC! This place is a MUST. As a grad student, I normally don’t eat dinner until LATE, and luckily Thursday-Saturday they’re open until 2am!! I had the Philly cheesesteak and the vanilla milkshake (all vegan of course). It seriously hit the spot, and I love the late night option.
I'm not a vegan. I prefer actual meat. That being said, the Crispy Buffalo Blue Chicken Sandwich was better than a lot of actual buffalo chicken sandwiches I've had. Glad my vegan daughter brought me here.
Fast food vegan deliciousness with sweet tea and kale lemonade and positive plant based vibes! Your junk food dreams realised!
Apparently the Chinatown location can’t be reviewed? I was gonna give it five stars anyways 😂 for the amazing quality of that smoothie, it was pretty cheap. The burger didn’t sit heavy at all, so I would totally go back!
Absolutely delicious. Fast service and very cute little restaurant. The chocolate shake blew me away and the chicken sandwich was so yummy. The hip city sauce is really good as is the aioli. I liked it so much I came back for breakfast the next day. Wish there was one near me back in Arkansas!
Really friendly staff here. The Philly Steak was great but the Nuggets were a little bland and only redeemed by the HipCity dipping sauce (included).
HipCityVeg is by far my favorite vegan fast food restaurants. They have amazing burgers, chicken sandwiches and their sweet potato fries and with their house chipotle sauce it's amazing... 🤤
The burgers are tasty! Sauces also were good! Definitely nice to have vegan options in DC
Delicious chick'n sandwich and sweet potato fries! Amazing pumpkin shake and yummy, moist brownie. Going back for sure!!! Even my non-vegan, burger loving mom loved her vegan burger. Impressive.
Fast food for the non meat eaters. Tasty burgers and nuggets. This is the place I go to when I have a craving for nuggets and fries. First time trying the Crispy HipCity Ranch and it did not disappoint.
