Classic burger joint but vegan 🌱! 🥳

Food came out super quick— about 10mins if that! Everything was great 👍🏻 100/10 would come back! And the burgers were definitely killer 🤩🤤 Make sure to add a cupcake burger— they’re too cute! And also, I brought my non-vegan mother along (she can be picky) but she said she absolutely loved everything 🤭😏🥰

Pros: Friendly Service, Great Atmosphere , Amazing Food! 🤤

Cons: I don’t live close enough to visit here more 😂

Creamsicle shake was dreamy

Split the patty melt with the housemade black bean patty and the creamsicle shake with my partner. We really enjoyed our meal. The black bean patty was smashed pretty thin so I didn't really taste it with all the cheese, caramelized onions, and sauce. Great patio and nice server. While we were there another table lost something inside the wooden bench seating and the server was bringing various tools to help them try to get it out. Loved the creamsicle shake and the tiny burger cupcake from Vegan East was fantastic!

Pros: Great food, Nice patio

Great Vegan Food

We've been here many times and love it. They have great burgers and chicken burgers, including a Juicy Lucy. They also have a great drinks menu and outdoor seating.

Pros: Juicy Lucy, Chicken Sandwiches

my favorite local spot

the burgers are amazing, but the brunch is even better. the breakfast burrito and gordita are my favorites, but there’s no wrong choice on the menu.

Pros: so many options

Killer Burgers without any Killing

Francis Burger Joint is a must-visit for any vegan junk food craving traveler to Minneapolis. This being their second location, they have the experience to warrant multiple restaurants in the Twin cities.

Being a tourist in town, I wanted to try a local delicacy: the Juicy Lucy. And Francis Burger Joint delivered an incredible vegan variant. I ordered the vegan jalapeño juicy Lucy, which was a special of the day. Let me tell you, it was one of the greatest burgers I have ever had. This burger is becoming a staple for me when I am in town.

In addition, the fries were crisp. And the cupcake was cute.

The decorations wear its veganism on its sleeve without becoming off putting to newcomers. And the staff was friendly and helpful.

Overall, this place is awesome. No notes. Make sure to check it out!

Loved it!

So good! The chai milkshake was to die for. Wish the cheese fries had been cheesier. But otherwise perfect.

My go-to vegan spot in Minneapolis

The best burgers I’ve ever had. The bacon here is really good. I wish they didn’t remove the baconator off the menu it was the best thing they had.

Killer burgers!

Francis stands out as one of my top vegan dining choices, where mouth-watering plant-based burgers, crispy golden fries, irresistible “chicken” sandwiches, and Minnesota’s only fully vegan full bar create an exceptional experience that makes everyone feel welcomed and at home.

The best vegan burger

Love the new location because there’s a parking lot! Just as amazing as their first location. I love the garlic girl burger subbed with the impossible patty! But the bean burger is also amazing! Love it. Every vegan who visits should try it, also I’ve been at different times with 3 meat eaters and they all love it too.

Pros: Lots of good burger options, Perfect portion size, Fries are also good

Amazing vegan gluten-free burgers

I got the bean burger which was delicious, and would definitely recommend the house bean burger over the impossible burger. The fries are thin and crispy.

When I went they had an option to order via the QR code or via waitstaff. Appears to be a no-tipping restaurant (when I checked out there was no option for tip).

Staff is attentive, they noticed I had ordered a gluten free burger but had accidentally requested bacon (which contain gluten) and they came out to confirm what I wanted.
