Vegan Temple Bar — Restaurant in Amsterdam

Absolutely blown away by the Vegan Temple Bar in Amsterdam! From the moment you walk in, the vibrant atmosphere, stylish décor, and friendly staff make it clear you’re in for something special. It’s a beautifully designed spot that feels modern yet relaxed — perfect for catching up with friends, enjoying a casual meal, or just soaking in the lively Amsterdam vibe.

The food was absolutely delicious 😋 — every dish looked and tasted amazing. I went for the Truffle Delight Burger 🍔, and honestly, as an omnivore and long-time meat lover, I was amazed at how good it was. Juicy, rich, and full of flavor, it’s one of the best burgers I’ve had — vegan or otherwise! The truffle mayo and perfectly seasoned patty were next-level, and the loaded fries on the side were a dream.

It’s clear the team here really cares about quality — everything from the presentation to the taste felt thought-out and fresh. The menu is creative and full of tempting options, from burgers and bowls to pasta and sweets (the desserts looked incredible!).

Atmosphere and service were spot on too. The staff were welcoming and attentive without being overbearing, and the whole place has such a positive, energetic feel. I’d definitely recommend booking ahead, as it does get busy — and for good reason!

Vegan Temple Bar isn’t just for vegans — it’s for anyone who loves good food done right. I left genuinely impressed and inspired to add more plant-based meals into my day-to-day. A five-star experience all...

When I decided to travel to Amsterdam, I started looking out for some good vegan food places and there it was - the first in my search list- The Vegan Temple Bar.

As a blogger, I was amazed by the rating and reviews and definitely wanted to try & review this place. The ambience is cute and it has an indoor/outdoor seating. The owner is a friendly man who actually monitors the kitchen & did give us some great suggestions to try!

He suggested us to try The Smokey Temple Burger and The BBQ vegan chicken burger. They both were lip smacking amazing. Smokey Burger comes in a black bun with vegan patty, mushrooms, vegan bacon, avocado, cheese and honey BBQ sauce served with sweet potato fries and BBQ vegan chicken in a sesame bun with vegan chicken patty, nachos, caramelised onions and honey BBQ sauce served with belgian cut fries. Trust me when I say they were beyond perfection and every bite felt so satisfyingly goood. The other dish that he suggested us was the Salmon & Wasabi bowl. It was a rice bowl filled with cucumber, seaweed, salmon and avocado & topped with sesame seeds and wasabi mayo. Every bite felt heavenly. The vegan salmon was very soft and tender.

Coming to final part of our order, he suggested us to try out the Berry smoothie and the Ginger Juice. Both had a zesty taste which just refreshed us on a sunny afternoon in Amsterdam.

This place is a 10/10 for me given the hospitality, location, ambience...

Vegan Temple Bar – A Mixed Bag of Bites and Vibes... I recently visited Vegan Temple Bar in Amsterdam, and while there were definitely some highlights, a few odd choices kept it from being a fully satisfying experience. Let’s start with the food. The burger was okay—not bad, but nothing that stood out in a city that offers some truly excellent vegan options. What did impress me, though, were the fries—crispy, golden perfection—and the truffle mayo, which was rich, flavorful, and honestly addictive. If I came back, it would be mostly for those two alone. That said, the presentation left a lot to be desired. Serving food on old wooden cutting boards that looked worn out and slightly grimy didn’t exactly scream clean or appetizing. It might be meant to be rustic, but it just came off as a little unhygienic. To make things stranger, there was ketchup “art” smeared across the board in some kind of decorative attempt—which seemed not only unnecessary but also wasteful. The ambiance also took a hit when someone from the kitchen—possibly a manager or chef—was loudly berating staff in English. It was uncomfortable and really killed the chill vibe the place is trying to cultivate. All in all, while there were definitely some standout bites, the overall experience didn’t quite match the potential. I might return eventually, but probably only if Amsterdam’s many other fantastic vegan spots are...
