We have appreciated TGI Friday’s offering the Beyond Burger and with a few modifications, you can make it vegan!
You also have the option of a House Salad and if cross-contamination isn’t a concern, Chips & Salsa and Fries. The Kids menu also includes an option.
TGI Friday’s may not be offering a lot but if this is where you end up, you at least know it’s an option.
Vegan Options at TGI Fridays
Appetizers
- Chips* & Salsa
Entrees
- The Beyond Meat Cheeseburger. Order with NO cheese or sauce and choose the regular/challah bun or “green style” –replaces the bun with lettuce… comes with lettuce, tomato, red onion & pickles
- House Salad – Order with NO cheese, croutons or the breadstick. If available, the Sesame Citrus is the only vegan dressing or you could ask for salsa and/or avocado. You also have the option to add the Beyond Burger to this salad.
- Pasta with Tomato Marinara Sauce… this is also on the kids menu
Sides

*The Tortilla Chips and Fries are fried in the same oil as animal products. Please be aware unless you are visiting a 100% vegan restaurant, cross-contamination can occur.

Our Picks
Ryan’s Pick: I’ve not been to a TGI Fridays since going vegan although, fun fact, I worked at one for a brief stint in college.
Jen’s Pick: The veganized Beyond Burger is really good! I was pleasantly surprised. The Seasoned Fries on the other hand were just ok. I had read so many reviews of people raving about them so hopefully I just got a not so great batch.
