The vegan options at Hopdoddy used to be a lot better. At one point they offered a Veggie Burger and Impossible Burger, then switched it to a Beyond Burger. Now, you are left with just the Veggie Burger and will have to make modifications for it to be vegan.
If you’re not familiar, Hopdoddy is an upscale fast-casual chain with locations opening up across the country about of which are located in Texas.
Here’s everything vegan at Hopdoddy:

Hopdoddy Vegan FAQ
Does Hopdoddy Have a Vegan Burger?
No. Hopdoddy used to offer a 100% vegan burger, called the Beyond Vegan. It came with a Beyond patty, vegan gouda cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion & veganaise on a vegan wheat bun. Changes were made to their menu in late 2023. This burger is no longer on the menu.
You can order the El Bandito Veggie with modifications–this includes a black bean & corn patty.Â
Are Hopdoddy Sweet Potato Fries Vegan?
The Sweet Potato Fries are vegan, but need to be ordered with NO chipotle aioli (contains eggs).
Does Hopdoddy Have Impossible Burger?
No. Based on our research Hopdoddy originally carried the Impossible Burger at their locations, but at some point has switched to carrying the Beyond Burger. They no longer carry Beyond Burger either. The switch happened towards the end of 2023.
Are the Buns at Hopdoddy Vegan?
One of them is. Hopdoddy does carry a vegan Wheat Bun which used to come with the now no longer available, Beyond Vegan Burger, by default.
However, their Egg Bun (which is used with most of their burgers) contains both dairy and egg and their Gluten Free bun contains an unsalted butter blend of margarine and egg
Is the Doddy Mayo Vegan?
No. The Doddy Mayo is made with eggs and is not vegan; however, Hopdoddy has offered Veganaise. We suggest asking your location if they still do.Â
