I am going to be ranking my top 3 favorite veggie burgers today that you can find in the San Marcos area! Note that I enjoy all of them almost equally, but some of their different qualities makes some better than others. This is just my opinion, so make sure to go out and try them for yourself so you can see what I am trying!

1. 54th Street Veggie Burger

Coming in at number one is the 54th Street Veggie Burger. As the menu states, it is a spicy black bean, grain and vegetable patty topped with pepper jack cheese and garlic aioli. This is my favorite because, to me, it has the best flavor, and also has the best texture when eating. It does not get mushy when you start eating it and it also has the nice flavor of the spices to add a little extra kick. My boyfriend also approves of this burger saying, “it tastes just like a regular burger.”

Although this veggie burger can be on the more expensive side, usually ringing up a total of about $11.00 with a side, it is worth it if you are planning on having a little treat for a good (veggie) burger!

2. Earth Burger Veggie Burger

Coming in at number two is the Earth Burger Veggie Burger. The Earth Burger is the only one of the burgers that is actually vegan, being made out of soy bean and pea protein. You can add cheese for an extra dollar, making it non-vegan, but it is good either way! I decided to rate this burger as number two on my ranking because the consistency of the burger has the same consistency as a regular beef patty, and sometimes that is off-putting to me. Other than that, the flavor is great, especially with the secret sauce, and I like to add pickles and mustard to mine.

This burger costs about $7.00 with tax for a single burger, and about $11.00 with tax for the combo, which comes with fries and drink. Some might think that it is pricey, but having it be a completely vegan burger makes up for the price.

3. P. Terry’s Veggie Burger

Last but not least is the P. Terry’s Veggie Burger with cheese. This veggie burger is made with brown rice, crimini mushrooms simmered in cream, black beans, oats, onions, cheddar cheese and fresh cut parsley. It is made with eggs and dairy, so it is not vegan, but vegetarian! I ranked this burger last because although it has a great flavor, it can sometimes end up with a mush-like consistency while eating it. I also like to add pickles and mustard to this one, and it’s great.

This veggie burger is the cheapest out of the three ringing in at around $4.00 with tax for just the burger and about $8.00 with tax for the combo meal, which includes fries and a drink. If you are needing a veggie burger on a budget, but still want good flavor, the P. Terry’s veggie burger would be your best bet!
