Best Places to get a Veggie Burger near Queen's Campus
Sometimes only a good veggie burger will do! But where is the best place to go near Queen's Campus? Luckily Tejinder has done the "hard" work so you don't have to, here are her recommendations.
As a vegetarian, I am always looking for food outlets which have options for me that are filling, delicious, well-priced and worth the wait! One of my favourite food items is a good burger, and I really love finding that place which gives me a burger which hits the spot! So, this is a short list of some places that I found had great veggie burgers (and had me returning again and again!):
Slim’s Healthy Kitchen (Most Surprising Place for a Burger?)
Now, judging by the name, this would not be a place you would think to go for a burger. However, Slim’s Healthy Kitchen (located on Lisburn Road), has a great vegan burger, called the B12 burger, which is made out of plant-based protein and mushrooms. You can always ask to add cheese if you do not want the burger to be vegan. It is a delicious option for a sit-in meal, or even take away. It is also reasonably priced for the restaurant at about 8 pounds. The great thing about this burger is that the size of it is very good, and while it tastes great and gives an awesome texture, it does not make you feel heavy or bloated afterwards; it leaves you feeling satisfied and light, which is an awesome feeling to have after eating your favourite food! So, this way, you can have that burger without feeling guilty about it being super unhealthy!
Junction (Closest to Campus!)
Handily situated in the PFC on Campus, Junction has another budget-friendly veggie burger option. Their grilled halloumi burger is great for any cheese addicts out there and comes packed with salad, pickle, relish and aioli. Plus at £3.45 you'll be hard pressed to find a better value veggie burger.
Tribal Burger (Best Vegan Choice)
Coming in as a highly recommended additional option is Tribal Burger. One of the newest additions to Botanic Avenue's ever-growing culinary scene. And it's well worth a visit. It has not one, but two, vegan burger options and a wide selection of local vegan craft beer too! You can choose from a delicious sweet potato, quinoa and chilli patty with curried butter beans and vegan sriracha mayo or a lentil and tomato patty with vegan pesto.
McDonald’s (Really!)
Now, this is last on my list because it is obviously fast food, and already well-known. However, I thought an honourable mention should go out to McDonald’s in Belfast because they have a very good-tasting veggie burger. Canadian locations of the franchise do not sell any vegetarian burgers so I was pleasantly surprised upon coming to Belfast and noticing that I could go here and buy a very cheap, filling and delicious burger!
So, these are obviously just some starting points to find the best veggie burger in Belfast, but I hope it helps you start the journey with these options and enjoy them!
