Little vegan place but the name alone is wonderful and worth a visit.

Great Vegan Breakfast

Little vegan cafe with great coffee and lots of fresh bakes. Some nice breakfast wrap options too. Definitely try if you're in the city for breakfast.

Delicious food, friendly people

I enjoyed the Ruben toastie which was the first toastie, in 5yrs of being vegan!, that really tasted like a real one! It was delicious and filling. I also tried the Biscoff cinnamon roll (tasty and melted in your mouth), the chocolate cookie was fresh, soft and had chocolate chunks and I had the cookies and cream overnight oats the next day - me and my cat loved it!

The people working there were so friendly and nice and it was a very popular place. There were also wraps and the coffee was good. I can't wait to go back!

Pros: Yummy Ruben toastie, Life affirming black coffee, Amazing range of cinnamon buns

Oooomg. Cinnamon buns are HEAVEN

A must visit in Dublin! Lots of delicious savoury wraps and toasties, and the BEST cinnamon rolls. I’m a cinnamon roll fiend and was not disappointed, 10/10!

Great sandwich and treat spot

We were hungry while out and about mid day and split the Korean BBQ wrap and double chocolate chip cookie between two people. The seitan had a good texture and the wrap was expertly grilled and had a nice flavour profile (though it wasn’t as spicy as I might have expected based on my own Korean cooking). The cookie was perfect in fudgey-ness. The cinnamon rolls look amazing so I will have to go back! So happy that my first meal in Dublin was from a vegan shop.

The *best* vegan cinnamon roll

We got the cream cheese cinnamon roll and the pistachio matcha cookie - amazing!! The cream cheese cinnamon roll is maybe the best cinnamon roll I've ever had and definitely the best vegan cinnamon roll I've ever had!

My husband and I ate the matcha pistachio cookie nearly 10 hours after we bought it and it was still chewy and we both agreed it was likely the best cookie either of us have ever had - SO GOOD!!!!!!

The cafe is also very cute, apparently the coffee is amazing, and I love the pink mugs. I can't wait to try lunch here.

Best cinnamon buns EVER!!!

Gave this place 5* purely on their cinnamon buns alone lol! The wraps & cookies were great too I must say. The buns are more filling than you’d imagine so make sure you leave plenty of room.
You have to visit this place even if it’s just to take a bun back to your hotel room. You’ll thank me for it.

Pros: Cinnamon buns to die for. , Other food was decent too that I had. , Friendly staff

Cons: Could do with sprucing up a tad

Korean wrap great. Cinnamon buns seem to be the main draw.

I had a great seitan wrap. But everyone else was there for the fresh vegan cinnamon buns.

Pros: Seitan, Very tasty!, Good iced late!

Hits the spot

The burritos are extremely filling, that’s for sure!

This cozy cafe is one you should be sure to stop at if you are in town or a local.

I do wish that they had some of the options as plates rather than burritos and that there was an option to add things like avocados or greens.

Otherwise: the flavor is amazing and even though the bbq wrap and the scramble wrap were lovely!

Pros: Cute location, Unique concept , Friendly staff

Cons: Could use more options / plate options

Great seitan-based sandwiches and vegan cookies!

We had some great wraps and toasties here, and all were great. I had the ruben toastie, and my wife had a Korean-influenced wrap: both were excellent. We each had a cookie (either chocolate or a pumpkin spice snickerdoodle): both great.

I can highly recommend stopping by. The seating area is quite small, but we were able to squeeze in.

Delicious wraps

We had delicious wraps here as carry out to eat in the park. Also a matcha vanilla oat latte which was so nice too! Wraps are huge and stuffed full of really good seitan. We had the Korean wrap and the chicken mozzarella pesto wrap. The sweet choices looked amazing but we didn't try any.
It's more of take away food place than a cafe as it doesn't have a wc but there's one nearby in Stephen's Green shopping centre.

Simply incredible

Incredible fully vegan cafe in Dublin. Lots of sweet treats such as chocolate chip cookies, marshmallow cookies & multiple types of cinnamon rolls, cakes & overnight oats - all so delicious. I’ve tried most of the wraps & sandwiches too which have all been so filling & tasty, very good value for money. Coffees, matchas & hot chocolates here have always been delicious. Really lovely owners too with some outdoor seating & indoor seating too. Definitely a must visit in Dublin

Indulgent, yummy cookies

We got the chocolate chip marshmellow and matcha pistachio cookies. We ate them the next day and they were delicious, particularly the chocolate chip marshmellow. The cookies are maybe a bit sweet and contain alot of fat (considering the stained paper back), but they are worth it. They are definately a treat and not for every day.
