Burger King has Fantastic Vegan Options with many menu items during any time of the day – the only downside is the vegan options are often pricier than the non-vegan versions, which is quite bothersome.
However, keep in mind many of the vegan options Burger King has currently must be “veganized” by removing certain elements from them — such as the mayo that comes by default on the Impossible Whopper (vegan whopper). According to Burger King, the french fries are vegan, so you can safely add it to your menu.

Keep in mind that Burger King doesn’t use a separate grill for impossible burgers — some locations will try to allocate a small portion for them, others won’t — but if you want to be sure to avoid meat-juice cross-contamination you can ask for them to cook it separately — usually this will mean the microwave.
