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!

If it's a trap it's an all vegan tasty one 💕

Small little place which is all vegan. Not a fast food place. More of a family cafe with a focus on quality ingredients cooked well. Mainly sandwiches on tasty bread and a mouthwatering array of desserts. Had the delicious cinnamon rolls twice. Had the Ruben sandwich which I didn't love, but I'll be back to try other menu options for lunch. Limited inside seating, outside seating in a covered area (mostly) away from the rain.

Soooooo delicious

We had a chocolate cookie and cinnamon roll and it was de-li-cious!!!! Nice to have a fully vegan place where you don’t have to check what you are buying.

Absolutely fantastic

We went for lunch, and had one of their wraps. The pesto one was delicious, my partner enjoyed the BBQ one. The price was fair for being in the middle of Dublin.

Most incredible wraps & Cinnamon Rolls!

Everything is vegan & tastes incredible! We had the scrambled tofu wrap, Korean BBQ wrap, 2x cinnamon rolls and two oat coffees. We would happily go there again. The cinnamon rolls were giant! Not overly sweet, fluffy and fresh. I also bought a marshmallow cookie to go. Everything has so much flavour and the staff were super friendly. No faults at all!

I went back again and got the breakfast wrap and the pistachio cookie. The tofu wrap is still the best. The pistachio cookie is incredible! That one is my favourite dessert so far as the centre is a giant marshmallow.

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

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.
