Continues to be amazing as they grow. They lost the certification and got a less stringent one due to some supplier logistics. However, being less religious now (and not really kosher) I think anything vegetarian is kosher like before. They had a smaller competitor at Solaire Social that sadly closed but this place has remained superior. They have added new items like hot dogs, chili, and tacos (the latter operates under another name). The chili is similiar to Ben's Chili Bowl. I do wish they kept their plant based crab sandwich on the menu permanently as that is our favorite. Service, value, and quality has remained great as the menu has improved and locations have expanded across the entire Northeast Corridor from DC to Boston. read more

PLNT Burger was an okay burger. Ive recently been into alternative meats so was excited anout trying PLNT Burger. This one was situation in a whole foods. Im happy that they have a gluten free bun, but unfortunately it wasn't a very sturdy bun and the burger itself was just okay. For the price I was expecting more. The service was great and quick and the ambiance is exactly what you would expect at a whole foods. read more

PLNT Burger is a vegan fast food burger chain with locations in Maryland and other locations on the Eastern Seaboard. I stopped by this location in Silver Spring - it's located inside the Whole Foods - before a movie last week. Since it was my first time at PLNT, I ordered something traditional - the PLNT Cheeseburger (plant-based patty, caramelized onion, pickles, plant-based American cheese, green leaf lettuce, roma tomato, PLNT sauce, and potato bun). As a very failed former vegan (10 years as a vegetarian and vegan in my late teens to twenties), I was most worried about the vegan cheese (I remember having some pretty awful vegan cheeses in those days). The cheese was fine actually. The burger itself is okay; it kind of tastes like TVP (textured vegetable protein), a little dry, not too flavorful. But my real issue with the burger was its assembly - it was so covered in sauce and gooey cheese that the bun was sliding off before I even tried to pick it up. It was one of the messiest things I've ever tried to eat. And that's what I'll remember about my first PLNT Burger experience - not the flavor, but definitely the messiness of it. It was fast, which is great if you need a quick meal. And since it's in the food court area of Whole Foods, you can also grab other things while you're waiting for your meal or after. If you're vegan or vegetarian, this PLNT Burger might be a godsend and you might love it! Too messy for me! read more

The burger and fries were enjoyed but my vegetarian daughter and omnivore me. A B+ The service is order at the counter with 15 minute wait. It's fast food. Ambiance? It's inside a Whole Foods Market with limited seated which is not connected.Zero ambiance. We decided to eat in car read more

I am not a huge fan of vegan food but I am trying to eat more vegan in 2024. I wish I knew about PLNT Burger sooner. I tried their Spicy Grilled Chik'n Cutlet Sandwich and it was delicious. I don't feel like it was spicy but I also have a higher tolerance for spicy foods. I've been thinking about it since I tried it. You really cannot tell it's not chicken, and I like that. The flavor on it is also really good with the garden herb mayo. The cutlet is MushroomRoot. I also tried their pumpkin spice shake and I love that it is made with oat milk. If you like pumpkin, I think you'll really enjoy it. I like that they're located in a lot of Whole Foods locations in the DMV but wish there were more stand alone locations because I don't live near a Whole Foods. I will definitely come back though. read more

PLNT Burger - Pumpkin milkshake - Vegan Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

PLNT Burger is a great, healthy alternative to the traditional burger joints around town. I enjoy the taste of the burgers which mimics actual beef with the vegetarian alternatives whether a combination of soy, mushroom, or what not the taste is nice. The milkshakes with the oat milk are also nice. The fries are nice too don't care for the sauces too much, but the fries themselves are nice. My own gripe is with customer service. The staff seems nonchalant and not as welcoming and accommodating. Staff should be friendlier and more receptive to people. I should not have to try to flag someone down to try to receive their attention to take my order. I always say it is hard to have great food and receive excellent customer service. A lot of places excel at either one area or the other but that balance is lacking. PLNT Burger can also be hard to locate to outsiders who might assume it is in its own restaurant location, when in fact it is inside the Whole Foods DTSS. That can confuse people. I still think it is an excellent addition to Downtown Silver Spring. You do not need to be a vegan or vegetarian at all to enjoy the meat substitution for a healthier alternative meal. This is a convenient spot from Veteran's Plaza and would be nice to go grab a bite to eat to bring with you to enjoy the annual Silver Spring Jazz Festival with the iconic Marcus Johnson performing! Nice combo right there! read more

When I'm in the mood for fast food that's vegetarian, this is my go-to. Whether I order pickup or delivery, or choose to dine in, the service is always fast and friendly. I've had many different items from the menu, and have never been disappointed. I appreciate that I can trust that they choose the safest and best ingredients and still manage to make satisfactory quality food. read more

My experience at this plant burger has always been a good one, fast and the food has always been tasty

Very good burger, nice potato bun, tasty green bean fries, fast staff prepared it - estimated 15 min but done in 5!!!

Well, I finally tried PLNT Burger. Won't do that again. Honestly, it's not that it was bad...it just wasn't great. And there are so many good places to go in DTSS, why go to one that isn't? This is a kiosk inside Whole Foods, and on my way to Cava, I detoured and ended up here. The cashier was helpful and my order came out quickly, which was nice. The mandarin cardamom drink was like a tasty, hopefully semi-healthy Tang (anybody remember Tang?!?!). So the burger was kind of...meh. It lacked spice, flavor, and flair. It was just a sort of mushy patty of unidentifiable plant-based material. The bun was tasty, and the sauce was quite yummy, and the lettuce and tomato were very fresh (I mean, it is situated inside a grocery store - one would hope!) The sweet potato fries were the clear winner here. Crispy, crunchy, cooked perfectly. Weird green sauce I still can't identify! Also, pretty freakin expensive. So even though the fries were great, I'll probably stick to my regular options in DTSS from now on. read more

PLNT Burger - PLNT Burger inside Whole Foods - Vegan Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

This is my first time trying PLNT burger and it is surprisingly very good. The place is tucked INSIDE Wholefoods. So note that. I got a meal with The cheese burger. That includes a small fries and a small drink. I chose Strawberry rhubarb. The burger is tasty, crispy and felt light. It came with 2 sauces: the green sauces is creamier and the red sauce is sweeter. I liked the red. The drink didn't have a lot of sugar (good thing) and tasted more naturally sweet. A huge plus on that. I also liked they didn't add ice. The staff was quick, service was courteous. Cost: 11.75 for my meal. Not too bad. However, The place is noisy, not much room to sit and eat. So I ll have to reduce a star for that. I'll definitely recommend it to vegetarians. And doesn't hurt for an occasional deviance for a regular. read more

I'm going to be one of those people that says, "I can't believe I've never been here before until now!" I live 1.5 miles away in Silver Spring and as a pescatarian, I don't know why I've waited so long to check this place out. Maybe it's the horrifically, always crowded parking lot out back? Well, with COVID still rearing its ugly head, parking seems to be a bit easier now. I had no wait to order, and because I checked out Yelp reviews ahead of time, I knew what I wanted to order. I started with the much praised Mushroom BBQ Bacon Burger. It was really good, the hype was real. Mushroom "bacon"? yes, please. Now, I'm not a red meat eater so I can't make claims as to how it taste compared to cow meat. It was really tasty. The crispy herb fries were just that, even upon my return home. A nice change from thin, regular fries. I also ordered the Spicy Chik N' Funguy because, well... more mushrooms. A quote from the source: Crispy fried oyster mushroom stems, house made hot sauce, pepperjack cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, garden herb mayo! Sound delicious?! Almost. A bit too spicy for me. Joy B. would not approve. I will stick with the burger next time. I also purchased a Whisked! chocolate chip cookie for my teatime later. It's 100% vegan and Kosher certified. It was just okay. For the $2.50 price tag I'd rather get a chocolate chip cookie from Chik-fil-A, or an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie from Potbelly's. Both are delicious! However, theirs is a good option for vegans. read more

Really disappointed in PLNT Burger. Their burgers used to be mushroom based. Now they are soy. I assume this was in favor of lowering prices, but it compromised health. There has been a clear stark decline in quality over the years, with a skyrocket in prices. I don't enjoy the taste much anymore which is sad because it used to be my favorite. read more

Great vegan concept and well executed! PLNT is tucked inside of Whole Foods and can be hard a bit hard to find near the bakery section. Worth the maze! The crispy Fun-guy Chik'n Sandwich is delicious! Glad I spotted an appetizing photo of the Chik'n sandwich and went for it! The sandwich was bursting with flavor from the crispy oyster mushrooms resembling chicken tenders and fixings of pickles, herbed mayo, and green leaf lettuce. The simple sandwich was quite tasty! The crispy herbed potato wedge fries were tasty and nice complement to the sandwich with a smoky aioli sauce. The Strawberry Rhubarb juice with apple cider vinegar is refreshing and not too sweet! Note there's a Plenty meal combo deal with some of the Plant burgers, not with the Fun-guy Chik'n Sandwich - $12.50 for a sandwich, large drink, and fries. After I ordered, I saw it! Excited to come back for another round of the crispy Fun-guy Chik'n Sandwich, herbed fries, and refreshing juice! read more

I got the burger and crispy chicken sandwich at same time and both were delicious. They tasted great even after being transported via UberEats. I'll be back to try more of the menu. Reminds me a bit of HipCityVeg, a place I also like. But the real reason I am writing this review is the cookie. I was expecting a normal cookie. What I loved about the PLNT Burger cookie was it basically tasted like cookie dough. For me, that was a pleasant surprise, and I'll definitely be ordering the chocolate chip cookie again. read more

My family loves Plnt Burger! I knew I'd found a winner when my husband declared that he'd rather eat Plnt Burger than Five Guys! You converted a farm boy raised on wild game, fresh meat, and more meat. Way to go! Today we both got the limited time Big Plnt and we really really really hope it stays on the menu! We like the Silver Spring location because of the free parking. I spoke with the manager (so kind, friendly, and knowledgeable) while placing my order today and he showed me the QR code on the counter to sign up for a rewards account. I got a free burger just for signing up! He told me they have lots of rewards incentives and I think that's great, especially with the current state of food cost. He also mentioned that they have meals for kids! I didn't see that pictured on the menu so I would encourage PLNT Burger to hang up visuals of the kids offerings. (I bet I can help them find a great photographer! ) read more

I wanted a veggie burger so bad and quick search led me to PLNT Burger. I'm glad I read that it was inside of Whole Foods if not we would have been circling around for a while. The reviews were really good and so many folks recommended the new patty melt so I went with that, fries and a cookies & cream milkshake. The staff were incredibly nice which is why I'm giving 3 stars. The food was NOT good. My patty fell apart which made it a mushy mess and was so difficult to eat. I'm so shocked that so many people were raving about it in their reviews but again, I've visited places that have perfected veggie burgers. Also, to note, the meat is Beyond meat and I strongly prefer impossible burgers. read more

Still trying out Vegan food to broaden my horizons in the food world. I have tried weird-tasting Vegan food, and this place is not one of 'em. Fyi, this place is located in the Whole Foods in Silver Spring. We went during COVID times, had a long line, but we didn't wait that long. We ordered the PLNT Burger and PLNT Cheeseburger with sweet potato fries. The burger was awesome. It seemed like a "regular/non-Vegan" burger! I would suggest to any of the Vegans out there, or for the people that have not tried Vegan before. Would I come here again? Yes, when the COVID has simmered down. read more

The location is very convenient, and our service was speedy and nice. The burgers are pretty good replicas of a traditional cheap fast food burger but the price is pretty steep for that flavor profile. Burgers are a 3/5 but the fries are amazing 5/5!!! If you go here, go for the fries and order extra sauce read more

The burgers here are tasty, but it's the fries that would keep me coming back for more! The patties are all the same - beyond burger patties, but the ingredients differentiate the taste and flavor. It's hard to imagine it's the same patty because they do a good job customizing each option. The meal is very filling - we got two burgers and one order of sweet potato fries and we were struggling to finish our meal. The sauces are pretty awesome too, each is unique so why not try them all? If you add some additional ingredients like jalapenos, or avocado, it's $1-$2 extra so it can add up, but the cost is otherwise pretty good! Staff is also nice - they are enthusiastic and regularly give out samples whether it's at noon or nine pm! read more

My husband and I have been wanting to try PLNT Burger for ages and were happy we went. My husband got recommendations from the kind staff member working and we ended up ordering the PLNT Mushroom Bacon Burger meal and at $11.99, it's pricy, but satisfying! I also got the Mandarin Turmeric Cardamom drink and the mandarin was the flavor I actually tasted (thank goodness it was not the turmeric!). I also shared an order of the Bloomies with my husband and that was delicious! Each onion "petal" was delicately coated and spiced perfectly. read more

PLNT Burger - Terrible photo of the amazingly satisfying PLNT Mushroom Bacon Burger - Vegan Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Accepts both cash and credit card. Located inside the Whole Foods grocery store. Located towards the coffee bar and sushi bar. Normally shop at Whole Foods to get my groceries. Decided to give PLNT burger a try. We decided to just try their plant based Cheeseburger. Comes with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and onions. The cheese was nice and melted on the patty. The burger tasted very fresh and felt like a less greasy version of the five guys burger. It's really good and all ingredients tasted good. In terms of pricing, it's a bit pricey. However, seems like it's a trend for most vegan food. They also have a variety of sauces for dipping as they serve herb fries and sweet potato fries. I tried the sweet potato fries and they tasted alright. Not sure if this is the responsibility of the PLNT burger or Whole Foods, but the tables next to the food shop was a bit dirty. Didn't seem that the tables were properly cleaned during the day. It was tough to find a spot to sit at especially during the weekday. read more

Intoduce the 2nd time to crabby patties this time in Swiss chard wrap, different the chard didn't overpower the the patty, still good. Try the green beans in aioli sauce read more

Finally made it up to PLNT Burger and it was just ok. I was excited to try their veggie burger and it was good but the eating area just makes everything unappealing. It's not clean, there are fruit flies (in winter), and it's poorly lit. The burger itself was tasty with a slightly mushy texture. I don't know, maybe it was hyped up too much in my Instagram feed. It's good for a veggie burger. There were also lots of homeless people which happens at most other Whole Foods locations in the area. read more

I got the Spicy Chikn burger and fries. The service was quick and the cashier was very friendly. Regarding the food: the Spicy Chikn burger I got no pickles and substituted the garden herb Mayo for chipotle Mayo at no extra cost. I got the fries with spicy dust (really the best seasoned fries I've ever had this way). The only down side and the reason I'd give it 4 stars over 5 was because of the size of the burger. Feels smaller than previously and for what it cost (10.99) definitely may think twice before coming back read more

If you're vegan, this is the spot for you! Located inside of whole foods, you can get some pretty good burgers and fries -- all vegan! It's always nice to go to a place that caters to everyone in your party and not feel like people are compromising. I'm not vegan, so I'm subtracting a star as the food did not agree with my meat-eating stomach the next day :( but it was good! read more

If you want vegan junk food, THIS IS THE PLACE. I have been vegan for 8 years and PLNT burger has the best burger I've ever had in that time. Greasy, fatty, salty, perfect texture ... it's just like old times. I also HIGHLY Recommend the oat milk shakes ... so delicious. Oh and definitely try the sausage egg biscuit -- it's so rare to find vegan breakfast this good!!! I'd skip their chili or chili fries/dog... something about it just tastes off to me. I'm also not crazy about the lemonades. It's kind of expensive for what you get, but it is always a delicious meal. My meat-eating friends can't tell the difference! read more

the food at Plant Burger is delicious! always a hit and never a miss! Im vegetarian and eat plant based dos and it can be a challenge finding convenient plant based food. While there are options at other places I need more choices than fries and a salad. Plant burger offers interesting alternatives. Plant based fast food. It's such a treat read more

So glad I finally tried plnt burger, it was delicious! I have been gradually transitioning to a vegan/vegetarian lifestyle and cutting out meat and diary. With plant-based options like PLNT burger becoming available, eating out has never been simpler. Delicious, juicy burgers, thick cut fries, and chilli (all made with beyond meat). Wow! I ordered a mushroom burger and a plnt cheeseburger with chilli and fries. We also got some ketchup and sauce on the side. I was shocked to see that the ketchup was not the usual packet, full of synthetic sugar. It was a non-GMO brand full of rich tomato taste. The burgers were hearty and full of vegetables (e.g., lettuce, tomato, pickles). Cheese was really yummy too. Not sure if the cheese is vegan. Either way, I liked it. Mushroom burger was full of that meaty mushroom taste. Really great with a smoky bbq flavor. Drinks were good too. Surprisingly, enjoyed the mandarin cardamom juice more than the strawberry rhubarb. Plnt burger is the future of veg* fast food for sure. read more

This was my first visit to this location. The employee who took my order was polite and pleasant. I ordered the Crispy Chic N' Funguy sandwich which is on sale for the entire month of April for $3.95 ($7.50 regular price). It includes lettuce and pickles. I thought this would be similar to a chicken sandwich with the use of fried mushrooms. Unfortunately, the large mushrooms were really tough to chew and had to be cut into smaller pieces. I would not recommend this sandwich unless you have a strong jaw. Stick to the burgers instead - those are chewable and enjoyable! read more

I am such a big fan of this place. I tell everyone I know about how great the food is and I order it whenever I go to Whole Foods which it happens to be inside of right now. I think this is a great location for Plnt burger and a smart move on behalf of chef spike and his investors and team who do a phenomenal job. I went to the yelp event and I have been patronizing throughout the covid-19 because they have a great buy one give one campaign to help essential personnel. The chicken sandwich is delicious and out of this world. I love the crispy fries and the fact that it's kinda healthy makes me feel guilt free. I'm not a vegan, but it makes me feel like a vegan once in a while. I love the food and I hear that they just opened one in the Whole Foods I'm Columbia Mall which is only about 15 minutes from me so I will have to try that one next! read more

Food is okay. Service another story. I don't think this location keeps track of your reward points when you give them your phone number read more

Love that they now have an App - just downloaded it! Great for making ordering (during a pandemic) easier and bonus- getting rewarded!

So I do consume animal proudcts. But I think everyone should try the sides, the drinks, the sauces, and the mushroom sandwich here. The sweet pototo fries are the best I ever had as they are lite and go great with the maple mustard. The regular fries are also good and the side salad is tasty. The sauces are so good, I wish they sold them seperately. The drinks can be on the sweet side, but I recommend using them for cocktail mixers(pro-tip!). Lastly the Chik sandwhich, I may eat meat but I will keep coming back for this guy. What I love its made from a vegge I know, the flavoring is great and its better for you than Chic fila. You dont feel gross afterwards. The other sandwhiches were not as tasty and I questioned the ingredigents. Even if you eat meat, I recommend coming here. Sign up using their app and get free fries. And right now as of July 2020 they have a groupon! So get it while you can. read more

I don't like the herbs on the fries. I get the spice instead. I also like the fish sandwich the most.
