Fabricio VieiraDecember 17, 2016The best burger I've ever had in my life! The fries are also to die for. And don't forget the lemonade for a complete satisfying experience.
Melissa PerezDecember 26, 2018The service first of all! The lady who took my order was super nice and patience with my hungry confused blabble as I spoke. lol second, the food here is amazing. I totally recommend the Philly Steak!
- The vegan shakes are amazing -try the monthly special. The udon noodle salad and hip city ranch are also great. One of the best vegan places in town. Not much seating, though so head to Rittenhouse.
Jarran Stepney MuseJanuary 28, 2015I have tried everything on the menu and its SO GOOD! Great juices and shakes, and 100% plant based menu. Grab food and head to the park when its warm out :) Amazing location! 10!
Neysha V 🍦August 10, 2013Seating is very limited. Order the buffalo 'bella to go, and (if weather permits) enjoy it up the block at Rittenhouse Square. Grab extra napkins...this sandwich is a messy delight!- Philly.comOctober 10, 2013Rittenhouse Square's premier quick-serve sandwich/salad spot happens to be all-vegan. We love the Ziggy burger and the Groothies. Read more
HipCityVegDecember 4, 2012As we gear up for cooler months, we've got some additions to the menu: Quinoa Chili, Cream of Zucchini Soup, Carrot Ginger Lemonade, Hot Chocolate, Pumpkin Cupcakes & more!
Celena ChanSeptember 21, 2015I got the Philly cheesesteak over greens. Tip: ask for the sauce (mayo and ketchup) on the sides if you're mayo averse. It's what makes it cheesy. This was so delicious!
Hip is probably short for hipster, but the Crispy HipCity Ranch is delicious (and I eat meat). Pair it with a vanilla shake for an awesome lunch - but go before noon to beat the rush.
Kate Rodrigues PonceDecember 1, 2015This place is awesome! The staff was really nice and I had a Ziggy Burger, which is the most delicious burger I've had so far in my life!
Cassie PMarch 9, 2013If you're looking for a good burger w/o leaving with a heavy, regretful feeling try the Ziggy burger. little on the $$ for a burger but def a good size. yet to try the fries with the black bean dip!
Brendan RastetterAugust 14, 2014The Ziggy Burger was delicious. It goes really well with the Groothie, which will taste even better when you take it for a walk around nearby Rittenhouse.- CollegeFashionistaJanuary 14, 2014HipCityVeg specializes in food that is vegan, fresh and fast. The ice cream-like Banana Whip is a great frozen treat for on-the-go students looking for something sweet and healthy.
hawa axmedNovember 28, 2015I had the chick'n nuggets and fries with the bean dip. The dip was a little watery, but overall the meal was enjoyable. I would not consider the choice I made to be healthy, but it reminded me of McD
Crispy hip city ranch is the way to go! The green smoothie is pretty good too. Oh and the brownie is also delicious.
Leanne AlyssaAugust 20, 2015The location in University City is bigger, cleaner, and less busy. Very friendly staff. The chickn club and orangesicle shake are great
Kethrellan PetersonJuly 12, 2016Ziggy burger and chocolate shake! All packaging is compostable. They also have some yummy cupcakes and other desserts.
If you're very hungry, then try the Crispy HipCity Ranch (no pickles or onions for me) with a Groothie. Otherwise, the Udon Noodle Salad is a lighter option. Bon appétit!
AlannaJanuary 30, 2014The ziggy burger is amazing. I thought I was actually eating meat! The sweet potato fries are great as well.
DeeniJune 22, 2014Buffalo bella burger, the best by far. Fries and green lemonade. Fast, veggie, friendly staff and fast!
The Hip City Ranch gets a lot of hype (it is good), but get one of the 'Bella sandwiches. No one has left a comment about them because they're trippin' so hard after consumption.
One of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had ... and it's not even chicken! #hipcityranch #chickfilwho
Try the Udon Noodle Salad - Udon Noodle Salad with Chinese black bean dressing, sprouts, carrots, cabbage, daikon, peanuts, and spicy glazed chick'n.- Chandrapaul LatchmanSeptember 28, 2014Ziggy Burger is better than any turkey burger I've had. Awesome place to eat! Super fresh ingredients.
Ricky SherrillSeptember 24, 2016I love this place & I am not a vegetarian. Could easily eat here everyday.
Maya Jimenez 😬April 22, 2016What great vegan food! The Caesar salad is amazing, I highly recommend it.- Sara TaylorOctober 23, 2015Such a happy little place. Recommend the med chopped salad and the carrot ginger lemonade!
- Try the Green Lemonade - Green Lemonade with fresh squeezed lemons, kale juice, lightly sweetened with raw organic agave nectar.
- Try the Arugula Taco Salad - Arugula Taco Salad with black beans, grilled corn, pivot de gallo, tortillas, avocado, and cilantro dressing.
The Bobby Special: crispy hip city ranch in a wrap with buffalo sauce. Don't forget to use sriracha liberally.- Try the Smoked Tempeh Spinach Salad - Smoked Tempeh Spinach Salad with croutons, radish, tomato with warm smoked tempeh-horseradish dressing.
- Try the Fajita Wrap - Fajita Wrap with blackened chick'n, onions, peppers, poco de gallo, avocado, chipotle crema in a tortilla.
Allison EspositoMarch 21, 2014Even if you're not a big veggie burger fan, try this one. It's outstanding.- Kori MooreJune 17, 2012Ziggy burger and udon noodle salad are great! Also the staff is way friendlier than you'd think
You can get any sandwich as a salad. I get the Buffalo Bella over spinach and it's heaven!- Try the Crispy Hipcity Ranch - Crispy Hipcity Ranch with battered chick'n, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, and peppercorn ranch.
- Try the Jerk Caesar Salad - Jerk chik'n, romaine, jicama, crispy plantains, and creamy island spiced dressing.
Bill DinhJune 10, 2012Philly Steak is as close to the real thing as you can get. Try it with the lemonade!

"By far the best espresso drinks in town. The crowd is a bit rarefied, but the quality of the drinks and surprisingly low prices more than make up for it."
