Lunchtime - Edit
Had lunch at this Buffet style restaurant. Very busy, two floors. Choice of food was outstanding hot and cold variety. Salads, main course, deserts…. Upper floor I had a nice view. The cost is in Canadian $…. Really good food 👍
Read morePros: Good variety , Good quality of ingredients , Quick friendly service
Cons: Line up at arrival , So busy tables were not cleaned rapidly

Great Food - Make sure you figure out the menu first! - Edit
It can be a little chaotic if you don’t know how the menu works, so check out instructions beforehand. It looks like they have at least a few different options daily, everything we had was tasty and you get a lot (especially if you do one of the specials/bundle meals.)
Read moreAlso, it’s not listed anywhere inside, but it’s all vegan from what I could tell (probably used to be vegetarian since it’s been around for a long time.)
Pros: Staff is super kind and helpful, Food was great
Cons: Confusing for first timers, Bathroom is on the 3rd floor?

Hi, just to say that it is actually still not a vegan restaurant but vegetarian. The food is vegan but dairy milk and butter are still served, and you have to clarify when ordering.

Sweet spot - Edit
Perfect fuel for a day of sightseeing in Dublin. Staff was so lovely. Tofu scramble called for some extra sauces imo😄

Good place to sit and relax with coffee - Edit
Nice environment, good lighting.
Read moreI probably wouldn't go back for one of the mains as they are quite expensive (around €20).
I had a sandwich and soup which came as part of a deal (€15 for soup, wrap and €1.50 discount on a drink).
They have a nice extensive pastry and cake section and this is probably what I'll return for
Pros: Nice seating
Cons: Serves dairy milk and butter, Expensive mains

Täglich neue vegane Gerichte - Edit
Ich war fast jeden Tag im Cornucopia, weil es dort immer ein wechselndes Angebot gab. Täglich standen neue Mittags- und Tagesgerichte auf der Karte, die abwechslungsreich und sehr lecker waren. Die Küche ist eher schlicht gehalten, aber immer geschmackvoll und sättigend. Besonders begeistert war ich, als es plötzlich Karniyarik (gefüllte türkische Aubergine) auf der Karte gab – ein veganes türkisches Gericht mitten in Dublin hätte ich wirklich nicht erwartet. Dazu gibt es Kuchen und sogar veganes Soft-Eis, das für mich schon Grund genug war, regelmäßig vorbeizuschauen.
Read moreDas Mittagsmenü mit Suppe und Hauptgericht für rund 20 Euro fand ich preislich fair, da die Portionen großzügig sind und man immer satt wird. Das Restaurant ist gemütlich eingerichtet, es gibt Sitzplätze sowohl unten als auch im ersten Stock, und die Mitarbeiter sind durchweg freundlich. Für mich eines der Restaurants in Dublin, die ich auf jeden Fall wieder besuchen würde, gerade weil es vegane Küche auf durchgehend hohem Niveau bietet.

Fantastic place for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a drink - Edit
All the food is vegan so that’s good to know. They have cow milk and butter so that’s why it is not totally vegan. The restaurant is self -catering with more than enough space (also upstairs). Every day there new options on the menu. We went there 3 days in a row. The food is homemade and healthy

Decent portions, expensive - Edit
I had a Pastel Azteca, which was decently large but also expensive. It tasted well, but for the price I would have expected more.

One of the best vegan meals I’ve ever had - Edit
This place is amazing. I love their model where they have rotating options and you can pick multiple sides and entrees. I had a braised jackfruit and mushroom entree with potato salad and it was so good. I will definitely come back here next time I’m in Dublin. It would be cool if they had gluten free baked goods but they have vegan ice cream which is a nice plus.
Read moreUpdate: they went from 5 stars to 3. I went back here a week later and tried the stir fry and had the potato salad again. The stir fry was good, but the potatoes were not great. They didn’t taste the same. After eating I went to get a dessert and I asked a worker if the cheesecake was gluten free. He said if there is not a 2 on the label it’s gluten free and the label only an 11 so I got it. It was really good but 20 mins after eating it I did not feel good and had the same celiac symptoms from accidentally consuming gluten. I’m not sure what the deal was but I definitely ate something with gluten in it from here that was either mislabeled or heavily cross contaminated. I’ve never had issues with cross contamination at restaurants before.

I would come again - Edit
According to a member of staff, everything is vegan. But apparently you can get cow milk with your coffee on request.
Read moreI didn't understand the ordering system straight away.
A lot of seating, spread over 3 floors.
There was vegan soft ice cream.👍
Main course was very filling. 20 euros though. Maybe not financially feasible for everyone. But Dublin is generally expensive so...
Recommendation!

Nice - Edit
Food was nice if a little bland. Ordering process was a little unclear but we figured it out. Seems to be more of a lunch place that is branching out.
Read moreOrdering was confusing. There was a QR code for ordering drinks but food had to be ordered and collected from the counter, but you also paid after it was prepared. Everyone seemed confused about how to order including the staff!
Pros: All of the food was vegan, Vegan ice cream
Cons: Coffee was okay but not great, Where and how to order was confusing

A must visit whilst in Dublin!! - Edit
I ordered the peanut tofu bagel sandwich and an apple scone and tried a family member's spanakopita. The portions are huge, everything was delicious, and there were some great options for dinner. Dined with two omnis and one vegetarian (I'm vegan), and everyone was able to find something they enjoyed. I would definitely recommend this to anyone in the Dublin area.
Read morePros: Tasty options, Fast counter service, Desserts, pastries, and sweet treats!

absolutely delightful - Edit
Went on a delightful walk through Dublin to get here. We were jet lagged after pulling an all nighter on an overnight flight and they had tasty food for tired travelers. The staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the food choices. The coffee was excellent! The decor inside this cafe is gorgeous. It was bliss to sit on the second story and people watch while finally getting to eat vegan soft serve. This place was a dream😇

Favourite restaurant ever - Edit
Cornucopia is a cute vegetarian restaurant that offers homemade vegan nourishing dishes! My favourite is the lasagna and the garlic potato side salad you have to try their cherry and almond scones if they have them😋the coffee is amazing and no charge for alternative milk - I am pretty sure all of their dishes/desserts are vegan but they just have dairy butter/milk as a side option.
Read morePros: Coffee , Salads , Main dishes
