Vegan Options at Fatburger (Updated 2024)

Fatburger Vegan Options

If you’re unfamiliar with Fatburger and given it’s name, the vegan options at Fatburger are actually much, much better than you might anticipate.

Fatburger was actually the first national chain to add the Impossible Burger to their menu back in 2018. Want vegan cheese on your burger? No problem! Fatburger has a dairy-free cheese option on their menu.

Finally, what always goes great with a burger and fries? A milkshake of course! And Fatburger has four, count them, four different vegan milkshake flavors to choose from.

How’s that for vegan options?!?

  • Impossible Burger – Order with NO mayo and SUB dairy-free cheese.

Note: Make sure to stick with the regular white buns and not the Udi’s Gluten Free buns because the Udi buns are not vegan.

Also, in case you’re wondering, the Veggie Burger is a Boca Veggie Burger that is not vegan. If you want a vegan burger from Fatburger, stick with the Impossible Burger.
