Amazing breakfast wraps

I was in Dublin this week with and this place was a block from my hotel. As the only vegan in the group I was grateful to have such a delicious place nearby.

Pros: Breakfast wraps / cinnamon buns, Atmosphere , Coffee!

It's not a trap!

Small cafe, everything I tried was good and tasty. Cookies are amazing and cinnamon roll delicious. We tried also the 3 wraps and a sandwich (we ended up there 4 times as the only fully vegan place in un the morning) and the salty choices are good and well prepared.

Pros: Cookies and cinnamon roll, Friendly staff, Honest prices

Cons: Too small

Los mejores cinnamon rolls

Probamos los cinnamon rolls clásicos y nos estuvieron deliciosos. Tuvimos que volver a por más.

También probamos la crumble cookie de marshmallow. Buenísima.

Cons: hay que ir pronto porque se acaba todo muy rápido

Very nice coffee place

Just lovely. 100% vegan, many sweets and different breakfast options.
It's small but cute.
Not many all vegan places in Dublin, so I'm glad to give 5 stars!

Pros: Cinnamon roll

Great place

Great place and it was very busy when I was there on the early Friday morning.
I ordered the scrambled tofu wrap with spinach and sriracha mayo. I wasn’t a fan unfortunately. But everything else looked amazing so maybe I just didn’t like the taste of that wrap.
I would try the place again when I’m there.

Pros: Kind staff, Great atmosphere

Amazing matcha and cookies

Went one day to get an iced matcha which was lovely and went back another day to get a sandwich but there were no seats free and I was starving so got a hot matcha a mallow cookie instead lol
Amazing sandwich options wish I went back again to try but the matcha and cookies were 10/10

It's all vegan

Are there any better words to hear? That was the answer I got when I asked if they still had vegan cinnamon rolls (I guess I had just skim read their happy cow page beforehand!) The cream cheese cinnamon roll was amazing, not too heavy or too sweet. It was nice that the overhead covering for the outside seating covered is completely to shelter from the rain as there is only a small bar and stools inside.
There are a few negatives. My Americano was only ok, and I find it strange that they don't have a bathroom.
All in all though, I can't wait to return to taste other different treats in the future!

Pros: All vegan, Delicious cinnamon roll

Cons: No bathroom , Not much seating , Coffee only ok

Nice lunch!

We visited only once, and tried the reuben sandwich, the breakfast wrap, an iced matcha and iced dirty chai. Our favourite food was the wrap, and the chai as the best drink. We are looking forward to try more things from this place!

Pros: Tasty foood, nice iced drinks, friendly staff

Cons: Limited sitting: a bar inside, a few tables outsid

Excellent 😋

An excellent place for breakfast and lunch. We went there everyday during our stay in Dublin. Their mushrooms and pesto sandwich is to die for and they have these really flavor-packed wraps that come piping hot on your plate. Their drinks are also delicious. They also have a variety of cinnamon buns and cookies. Highly recommended 😉

Pros: Opens early at 08:00, Variety of options, Great location

Cons: Give coffee in paper cups

Such a good spot! Visited in April 2024 with some friends. Small-mid range of sandwiches and sweet items - but all looked great and some really innovative items on the menu. Had a pesto toastie and a cream cheese covered cinnamon bun which was insanely good!

Cashew cream cinnamon buns!

A good place for an early eat in Dublin where most other vegan or vegan-friendly places are not open. The matcha latte was done right, the matcha cookie tasty (although pretty darn pricey at €4.5!), and the seitan Reuben sandwich was decent too (although for this type of sandwich, I didn't think the bread used was suitable).

The stars of the show are the cinnamon buns which come in a few flavors. The one covered in cashew cream was super good, with the bun itself being nice and soft. A bit pricey at nearly €6, but worth trying.

Amazing!

Beautiful little cafe with great food and great coffee. We had a Kebab with cheese, pesto and spinach, an all day breakfast wrap, an americano and a mocha. All of it was amazing.

Would definitely recommend this place!

Pros: Great food, Nice decor, Outdoor seating

Not for me

When in Rome…I wanted to try the best vegan food around. There wasn’t much that was open but I decided to try this place and the pesto seitan wrap that gets so many positive reviews.
The wrap had plenty of seitan wrapped in spinach inside a toasted wrap. It was microwaved and the spinach remained red hot for some time which made it difficult to eat without scolding yourself. The toasted wrap was nice but i couldn’t taste any pesto. The whole thing was greasy and under seasoned. I think a strong chilli sauce with a big flavour kick would work better.

Pros: They are vegan and having a go

Cons: Greasy, bland and red hot

I wish I had gone earlier in my trip!

I loved this place. The pastries and hot dishes were incredible. The cinnamon roll is highly recommended and it's very obvious why. I also had the tofu scramble which was delicious. Lots of food, great value, and the nicest staff. If I had gone earlier in my trip to Dublin I probably would have ended up here every day.
