Bester Dirty Chai in Town! - Edit
Wir haben leider einen schlechten Zeitpunkt für unseren Besuch erwischt (11 Uhr) - das Frühstück wsr schon leer, das Mittagessen noch nicht fertig 😅. Schade, dabei klang es so lecker. Leider hatten wir nicht die Zeit zu warten, sonst hätten wir unseren Flieger verpasst.
Read moreAlso entschieden wir uns für die Salatauswahl (man kann aus 6 Salate 3 oder 4 auswählen) und Dirty Chai und das belegte Ciabatta und frisch gepressten Orangensaft. Alle Sachen waren sehr schmackhaft, der Dirty Chai der beste, den ich seit langem getrunken habe.
Die Preise sind etwas teurer als üblich, aber dafur wird hier eben auch Wert auf die Qualität gelegt.
Fazit: Beim nächsten Mal planen wir dir Uhrzeit fur unseren Besuch besser. 😅
Pros: Breites Angebot, Sehr lecker, Tolle Inneneinrichtung
Cons: 3 Etagen und überall war es kalt. 🫣😅, Etwas hochpreisiger

Great fresh food - Edit
Caveat from October 2024: be careful as the sign now says that their food is now fully vegan, but they still serve dairy milk and butter. I was surprised and disappointed to be asked if I wanted 'regular milk' with my hot chocolate.
Read moreUpdated review March 2025:
I had added this to my list to try on happy cow based on the glowing reviews, but additionally got 3 real life recommendations which hardly ever happens so I knew I had to come here. I now come here fairly regularly! I enjoy eating fresh tasty vegan food here in this meat free and mostly vegan (still disappointingly serves dairy milk and butter) restaurant - although with regular visits I've noticed that flavours can be hit and miss.
At the end of the day though, major props for offering such a varied vegan menu - it shows what can be done! Mains I've tried include tofu massaman, enchilada, potato cake, lasagne, stroganoff, spaghetti Bolognese, spanakopita, and shepherds pie. Desserts include pumpkin pie, banoffee pie, mince pie, apple caramel cake, strawberry cheesecake, and Biscoff cheesecake. Drinks include dirty chai, black tea, hot chocolate, iced Americano, Irish coffee, mulled wine, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
It's very popular especially at peak times but there's 3 floors of seating (however, sometimes top floor is closed off) so you shouldn't be too stuck for a table, depending on the size of your group. One day I came here with a group on 5 on a Saturday at 4pm and we were not able to find a table and had to leave which was very disappointing.
The main downside is that you have to carry your own (heavy) tray of food and climb the narrow steep stairs as you search for a table, which is tricky, especially if others are coming downstairs against you.
The period detail of the building and decor is lovely though, especially on the second floor.
Sometimes staff can be friendly and helpful and other times very taciturn.

Not as good as we remember - Edit
Food is excellent, hospitality was an F, and desserts didn’t hit like we wanted them to. I would go back there for dinner any day of the week when we’re in town, but the staff experience we had was such a turn off, I didn’t wanna go back even though it was on our schedule to have dinner again. Now that it’s a trap is there there’s no reason to have dessert here anymore.
Read morePros: Meal selection , Flavors
Cons: Staff was disingenuous and rude, Dessert wasn’t as good as other choices

Home food - Edit
The dishes were delicious.
Read moreI got stroganoff, which came with seitan, portobello mushrooms, rice, etc. I got a parsnip soup which was absolutely delicious.
I was looking for something good for my body and found it here.
The place gets packed, and is a bit noisy. You have to queue at first to get to the counter to choose your menu. There are three floors.
Pros: variety, healthy
Cons: not cheap, noisy

Perfect cake! - Edit
The cafe takes place over three levels and has an overall cozy chill vibe where you can stay for a looong while :). I tried the brownie which was great and the biscoff cheesecake which was unbelievably good, will definitely come back and recommend!! They seem to also serve savoury dishes, salads and snacks. Unfortunately they were out of scones but their cake selection was still satisfying. It's definitely on the higher end, paid over 6€ per cake slice...
Read morePros: Delicious cake!!, Comfy place, Lots of seating options, nice location
Cons: Rather expensive , Also serve cow milk/butter

We went after many suggestions.

We took scrambled tofu but really no taste at all.
Maybe it was just a bad day.

A vegetarian staple in Dublin - Edit
Have been coming here for years every time I’m in Dublin. Great, hearty food and desserts. Lots of vegan options. Not the cheapest spot but still worth a trip. #Veganuary

Delicious food - Edit
Curry squash soup with spelt bread was delicious! The enchilada was also all right but the texture was underwhelming. Loved the wide selection of healthy foods. I liked the vibe and views out the window onto the street.

Nice food - Edit
They offer various types of salads, soups and main courses. They are good but expensive. The place became totally vegan.

Hi, just to say that it is actually still not fully vegan here. The food is vegan but dairy milk and butter are still served, and you have to clarify when ordering if you want plant based milk

I misunderstood probably because the food menu said everything was vegan. Thank you for letting me know.

What a feast - Edit
We came here twice during our trip around ireland.
Read moreThey offer cake, small meals, breakfast and lunches. We had mainly the breakfast items.
I would highly recommend trying out the sausage rolls. We also had a scone and a rugelach as a sweet treat.
I can't recomment this place enough, as it is also a very nice spot to sit during the rainy afternoons in Dublin (we were at luck and it was sunny all day)..
Please note that they have serveral floors and the toilets are not suited for folks with wheelchairs.
Pros: Food, Ambience
Cons: Toilets (clean and all, but not accessible)

Fully vegan deliciousness! - Edit
It turned fully vegan!
Read moreGet ready to work for your food by standing in line and then carrying your food narrow stairs up to the tables - but 100% worth it!
So many choices, everything I had was incredible. Can especially recommend the salads, so fresh and healthy
Pros: Healthy, Taste, Friendly staff
Cons: Self-service

The only restaurant you need in Dublin - Edit
Me and my friend spent a week in Dublin and came back to this restaurant at least once every day. We tried other places during our stay but nothing that was even remotely as good. Everything in this restaurant and café was so tasty and the place was really cute. They even had vegan irish coffee ❤️ Dublin is expensive and this place is no different but they had a few cheaper options (at around 8 euros) that was still a filling meal on a budget.
Read morePros: The salads were to die for, Loved that they served alcohol , A lot of comfort food

Great - Edit
Nice space and the mix and match combo aspect for your meal is appealing, especially as there is so many good things to choose from. Dessert was also great. Can’t fault it apart maybe from being a couple of euros more than it probably should be.

Finally found a vegan scone - Edit
I am pretty sure it’s the only place in Dublin where you can find a vegan scone, mine was very good, served with jam and vegan butter. Although I now realize it was served at room temperature and I think it should be toasted - had never eaten one in my life so I might be mistaken. There’s plenty of seating space even upstairs! Would definitely recommend

It’s normal to have a scone at room temperature, generally you’d have to ask for it to be toasted

Vegan (almost) for the Planet and your taste buds! - Edit
We had the Dirty Chai to drink which was deliciously rich, and the tofu/beans on toast. I had spelt bread and my husband had white sourdough. Absolutely delicious with a lovely vibe. We also tried their cakes and pastries which were delicious too. Highly recommend.

Best in Dublin! - Edit
An institution, that sneakily turned fully vegan without scaring away any customers. Delicious but healthy food, mostly actual vegetables rather than meat substitutes. Excellent dairy free desserts, and takeaway Christmas dinners that have saved countless family Christmases.

Ahora todo es vegano - Edit
Tienen muchísimas opciones, y es el único restaurante 100% vegano en Dublín. Funciona tipo self-service, haces cola nada más entrar, eliges la comida (puede ser menú con entrante, plato principal y postre, o elegir lo que quieras), te lo van poniendo en la bandeja conforme avanzas, pagas y buscas un sitio. Tienen 3 plantas con mesas y sillas. Comimos sopa de boniato, lasaña, pasta pesto con boloñesa de tofu y un pastelito de almendra y pistacho, todo muy rico.
Read morePros: Pastelito, Lasaña, Gran cantidad de sitio
Cons: Es complicado subir con las bandejas

Hola, solo para decir que la comida aquí es vegana, pero la leche láctea y la mantequilla todavía están en el menú y debes aclarar en tu pedido si quieres leche de origen vegetal.
