Their vegetarian hot dogs are worth a try. I only got one because it was cheaper than a standard hot dog, but was surprised how much I loved the taste.

Their veggie dogs (not meat like, just veggies) were surprisingly good! I assumed the regular hot dog would be similarly good but it was hands down the worst hot dog I have had in my life.
Next time I go I promised myself I would try some of the plant meatballs instead.
The plant balls are amazing. Can't say how they compare as I've never had the meat ones, but they're tasty and savoury and delicious.
They are fucking ugly though which makes the first bite difficult. Good after that.

Do they have lunch there?
They do. The one near me has a whole menu that changes regularly, aside from a few permanent options. Some of the items can be very good.
It's a whole cafeteria setup with trays and a line with workers dishing out different things. Then you pay at the end of the line.
They got the vegan option too. If you don't want to think about the poor horse that gave his life for you, go eat vegan stuff. Often times vegan options are just a bridge. There are other ways to eating healthy nutritious foods.

The nearest IKEA to me is about ~~5,000~~ 2500 miles away. This picture makes me feel all of them.
Edit: I failed to search the actual mileage between my home and the nearest IKEA before posting.

Twice now on my ikea trips the restaurant has been so jampacked that I could not fit even if I shot myself in there with a cannon. βοΈ΅β
Find yourself a minimalistic-yet-sturdy bench from some nearby display space and use it as a battering ram to force your way to the food.
EDIT: Apparently they sell bags of frozen official meatballs that you can do yourself:

EDIT2: Apparently despite the fact that they deliver the furniture, they won't deliver the frozen meatballs. You have to go to the store for them. I guess just make one large trip.
They probably deliver many orders on one trip and it would require a truck with a refrigerated box to be up to food safety standards.
The meatballs were actually located right before the main checkouts. 2 lb bags of regular or chicken for $15 each. Very tempting but I had already gone last month, bought items frivolously, and did the same thing again today. By the time I got to the end I knew I had to just shut it down, pay and get out of there. Got 3x chocolate bars for $5 though. Couldn't help it.
It was pretty packed today - went there around lunchtime, but the line moved fairly quickly and we were at the checkout in maybe 15-20 mins. There are some premade items already on plates right at the start of the line and I'd imagine if you just wanted one or two of those you could skip past the people in front of you waiting to be served meatballs or whatnot and checkout faster.
IKEA breakfasts slap.
Didn't know they had breakfast!
I need to make a trek to the giant blue box. Lingonberry Master Race!
Don't @ me cranberry peasants.
So good! But I always think they might have just a little bit of horse in them. π
Ohh it's been long time i went there and had their meatball. I just went there to buy their currypuff.
I didn't see that on the menu! Which country?
Malaysia! They have local food menu like fried flat noodle and nasi lemak and curry noodle, i assume every country have local food as their special as well

I need to go back to IKEA. But I need to make my own too.
