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!

nice, but..

We had two sandwiches, Espresso and an Oat Milk Latte. It was good and the service very nice, but it's not a place where you can sit and have a big breakfast. It's a very small place with an open door and about 3 places to sit inside. If the weather is fine you can have a real table outside but noisy because next to the street.

tiny vegan cafe / bakery

Basically a really, really small cafe that serves hot and cold coffee and drinks cookies/sweet buns and several other items (like overnight oats etc..) Nice staff and GREAT COFFE.

Cinnamon roll was really good, but I am not sure if it was worth the price.

Had to take my coffee and cinnamon roll to go, because there were no places inside and even if there were, the space is pretty cramped and the seats outside aren’t the best (at least I wouldn’t want to sit outside in this busy neighbourhood).

PSA - been there only once, so my opinion might not be the most complex

The lack of restroom is the biggest problem in my opinion.

Micro bakery, be prepared for things to be sold out.

Wanted the All day wrap but the only one available was the scrambled tofu. Similar story with the sandwiches. That said; my wrap was delicious and the cinnamon roll was incredible.

Perfect start to the day

Really great coffee and cinnamon roll. Impressive and tiny little vegan hole in the wall turning out a limited selection of delicious stuff. Have had a nice pesto sandwich there too. Appreciate the outdoor seating option.

Incredible

Certainly the highlight of my most recent trip to Dublin and a place I’m sure to return to. Took my wife and parents for a breakfast pit stop here and boy we were not disappointed.

I had the Reuben and it instantly took me back to New York. Very high quality vegan meats. Everyone else said their food and drinks were delicious and hit the spot.

Highly recommended.

Pros: Brilliant staff, Food is outstanding quality, Well priced

Good Cookie

I very much enjoyed the one cookie I got here. It's a bit expensive for what it is, but I am happy to support establishments that cater to vegans.

very nice :)

not a huge menu but everything on it looked delicious! i got the reuben and my boyfriend got a cinnamon roll. reuben was heavy on the cheese, so the rest of the flavor kinda got lost in it, but still delish and totally hit the spot! cinnamon roll was good too but probably ask them to heat it up! we didn’t and wish we had😄would go back to try more! a very tiny spot with only one small bench of indoor seating, probably 4 stools, and two or three small tables outside!

Pros: fully vegan, kind staff, clear and concise menu = easy choice

Cons: not a lot of indoor seating

The vegan café's sandwich wraps were truly excellent. Bursting with flavorful, plant-based ingredients, each wrap offered a delightful combination of tastes and textures. The variety on the menu catered to different preferences, making it a top choice for those seeking delicious and satisfying vegan options.

Well worth it!

I think this was the best cinnamon roll I’ve ever had! It was tasty but not too sweet. We also had the pumpkin snickerdoodle cookie- fantastic!
I wish we had had the chance to go back!
Customer service was great too!

Fan-taste-tic !

We went for a breakie and it was so tasty ! We had a scramble tofu with spinach and sriracha mayo wrap and a wrap filled with mushrooms/beans/seitan and dried tomatoes. Sooo good !
We took a cinnamon roll and a pumpkin cookie to go, and it was amazing !
Note that it is a take away, they only have 3 seats inside and a few more outside :)

Breakfast win

The all day breakfast wrap was so-so (too heavy on the seitan), the cinnamon roll though was one of the best I’ve ever had. Super fluffy, not too sweet. Great coffee too.

I came back the next day and tried the tofu scramble wrap, which is much better. Light, flavorful, and filling.
