Amazing cafeteria style vegan - Edit
They always have vegan options and change out the menu daily. During my trip to Dublin I kept coming back here because it was so good.

Wholesome and yummy food - Edit
I really enjoyed my mushroom stroganoff on rice. The slice of bread I added was a little dry. There are three floors of seating, so it may look crowded mid-day but just keep going up the stairs. Fast (instantaneous) service since you order at the counter and are immediately served from their hot bar. The menu style is a little confusing to me; it only offers specific combinations, e.g. one hot entree plus two salad items, but the staff will let you order whatever you want a la carte, e.g. one hot entree with no salads. Value is good and food is yummy and filling!
Read morePros: Yummy food, Pleasant dining rooms to people-watch, No wait time once you order
Cons: Only 2-3 tiny outdoor tables

Cozy vibe, good value - Edit
Cornucopia was highly recommended by many Dubliners, and my experience was not bad, just a little 'meh.' I may have gone too late in the evening (90 minutes before closing) because more than half of the menu options were not available. There was a ten minute wait on one of my dishes that turned into 25 after they'd forgotten it. And no vegan soft serve available 😭 I'd give it another try but not anytime soon.

More places like this please! - Edit
We came here after reading other reviews and were not disappointed. They offered 5 choices of fully vegan mains together with either 2 salads or soup/bread for €18.95
Read moreWe both had the spinach spanakopita, mine with the beetroot and green lentil salad and broccoli with chickpeas and my husband had the soup.
The portions were very generous, the choice of ingredients imaginative and good quality. The atmosphere was friendly and laid back with plenty of seating upstairs.
Pros: Wonderful choice of tasty vegan food , Very generous portions
Cons: Wish I had one of these in my hometown

Favorite Veg. place in Ireland! - Edit
Breakfast, lunch, just coffee, or dinner, you can’t go wrong here. Been making great vegan and vegetarian food for literally decades! Plates look, smell, and taste amazing with everything made in house. Owners/chefs are committed to helping Dublin get/stay healthy and have a tried and true menu full of brilliant options for vegetarians and vegans alike. I travel to Dublin a lot and I always try to eat at least one meal here every time.
Read morePros: lots of vegan options, food is absolutely delicious, plenty of seating and open all day
Cons: None!

Great vegan breakfast - Edit
Lovely vegan breakfast, with toasted scramble or a bean mix, or (which we went for) a half and half combo, on delicious bread. Decent portion sizes for the price. Could have a bit more flavour to the food, but still good. Very friendly service too.
Read moreSelf-service place and they have some other food too - salad bar, assortment of cakes etc.
Recommend a visit if you're looking for veggie/vegan food in Dublin.

Good value for money - Edit
We would give it three and a half stars. One of the best vegan options we find in Dublin for variety and value for money. We ordered several different dishes to try and in general we liked them quite a lot, especially the wraps and noodles with tofu and vegetables. You order downstairs and everyone takes their tray to the table. There are also tables on the first and second floors. Recommended.

All vegan - Edit
This place is all vegan not vegetarian. I ate there twice in one day so what does that say?! Had the smokey beans for breakfast (excellent) and a v good coffee. Dinner was potato cake with salads also v good. My omni friend also really enjoyed it. Casual place, no table service.

Nice spot - Edit
I liked the food and the location is beautiful, only downside is that the food isn't made fresh. It still tastes great but a lot of options are not available in the evening.

Superb, but...... - Edit
It's a place with a brilliant choice of tasty food and a nice feel to it.
Read moreDelicous mains with brilliant salad choices make for a tasty meal. The portion sizes are good too and the prices are reasonable.
Went twice on the first day of the trip to Dublin.
However, one member of staff (maybe even the owner), disappointingly told us that real milk is available because "vegan milk is disgusting"
Shame, and the availability of dairy butter in a supposedly 100% vegan restaurant. Some of the coffee syrups also contain honey..... shame
This place is so close to being spot on.

Pros: Tasty food, Brilliant variety of world food, Friendly and helpful staff
Cons: Non-vegan butter and milk available , Honey in some coffee syurps

Great variety - Edit
This was a great place to eat during my one day in Dublin. There are many options, all nicely balanced and fresh. One of our wraps was great (the Caesar), the other one a bit blander. Overall we really enjoyed eating here 😊

Cosy place, tasty food - Edit
Came here around 11am for breakfast, but they had unfortunately already sold out of the beans. Opted for some of their salads and pastries instead, which was a great alternative. The salads were super fresh and tasty and filling enough as a meal by themselves. We tried the coffee and walnut cupcake as well as the chocolate rugelach, all of which were delicious. Highly recommend.

Hit and miss - Edit
Some of the food at Cornucopia is excellent and lives up to the hype but other times it’s not. On my most recent visit I had polenta with jackfruit ragu and the jackfruit had a very odd flavour to it, which ruined the perfectly good polenta.

Simple and Delicious - Edit
Came here everyday for breakfast while I was visiting Dublin for work. The scrambled tofu with beans on toast was such a perfect starter for the day. Just wish they had a batch brew to go with it.

One of my favourite spots - Edit
I love cornucopia for lunch, dinner or a quick snack. I’ve tried a variety of food there and it’s always delicious abd satisfying. It also leaves you feeling really well nourished afterwards.
Read moreThe food is flavourful and filling and the staff are friendly and helpful. I also have the restaurant’s two cookbooks which I recommend.
I was a little nervous queuing to order at first because the place is usually quite busy and I’m easily intimidated by this kind of thing, but I quickly got used to it. It’s well worth it! #Veganuary
Pros: Delicious food, Healthy choices, Varied dishes

Delicious Cornucopia of Plant Dishes - Edit
Cornucopia had a variety of delicious entrées and salads. I tried three salads and three entrées and everything was delicious. They change up the offerings so you never get bored. You eat in a beautiful three-story historic Dublin building with huge windows and high ceilings and interesting wallpaper. The staff was super friendly and I can’t wait to go back.

Worth a trip - Edit
I was in Dublin for a few days and had made it my mission to eat at Cornucopia. I tried a delicious eggplant dish which came with two side salads (I had potato salad and coleslaw, wow!), a delightful fruit scone and vegan soft serve!

Love this restaurant! - Edit
I love this restaurant! We ate here 4 times and loved the food every time! The desserts are divine too!
Read moreThere are definitely times when it’s busier- around meal times and it can be harder to find a table. The staff was friendly overall.
My one “complaint” would be the lack of accessibility. My mom, who is a senior citizen, had trouble with the steep, narrow stairs. Those stairs are also hard to navigate with a tray full of food.
Pros: Delicious food , Desserts!
Cons: Lack of accessibility

Amazing! - Edit
Went here twice on my 2 day stay in Dublin. So it was really good! The only con really was vegan options weren’t clearly marked. You have to ask. The staff was really friendly. The potato cake was sooo good, that beet pesto was amazing. I recommend this place.

Good but chaotic! - Edit
We went in for breakfast. Food is ordered at the counter there are no signs to indicate this.
Read moreThe food menu is decent and varied. I ordered the tofu scramble and my husband ordered the Half and Half (tofu and beans on either spelt or sourdough bread). Also ordered a couple of coffees with oat milk.
Food and drinks were great, if slow. We had to order coffees last and these took the longest. I'm not 100% convinced it was oat milk either!
