My Brother's Bar is known for its burgers (and its history), and nothing about those burgers is known for being vegetarian-friendly: The words "juicy" and "mouthwatering" are generally thrown around. Also, "beef" and "bison." But the joint's Boulder Burger is vegan friendly -- and a fine option for plant-based eaters looking for a burger and beer.
If you've been to My Brother's Bar, then you already know it's all about the burgers and the suds, and the veggie burger is really no exception -- although you can also opt for a grilled-cheese or cucumber-tomato-and-cream-cheese sandwich. Pictured above, though, is the basic veggie burger, grilled and served with a boat from whence you can add fixings as you please. We went with lettuce, tomato and pickle for a simple but satisfying burger. The patty is firm and contains plenty of high-nutrition grains and beans.
If you prefer, you can order a burger based on one of the meat-heavy options: This is a vegetarian version of the JCB, a burger slathered in jalapeno cream cheese.

For a side, you can't go wrong with a half or full order of onion rings; you can also get fries or mix them up, like we did. (But we wished we'd ordered ALL onion rings, so take our advice and skip the fries.)
