Crowded - Edit
Ate my dessert on the fourth floor, thinking about what would the city council or fire services think of the building's fire plan. Very crowded on each floor, with one narrow stairs down.
Read moreCrowded Sunday vibes aside, my dessert was baklava. Not great. Fell apart with one bite, and almost too hard chewy to eat.
Sampled others' foods. One main was very good. The other not so good.
So overall a mixed experience. I'm yet to have the great experience that other people often have.
Pros: Good number of variety of good and drinks, The soft serve ice cream in summer is amazing
Cons: Not a vegan restaurant , Serves milk, Taste is mixed

Great concept - Edit
They serve food in a buffet style where you can choose between wraps, main dishes, soups and salads, so whatever you're in the mood for, you will find something you like.
Read moreI had the Caesar wrap and soup and espessialy the soup was really good.
The place was quite busy, but there is ample seating.
It was pretty cold though.
Also nice is that, once seated, you can order drinks and pastry via a QR code, so you don't have to stand in line again.
Too bad they serve dairy, though.

Vegan staple, room for improvement - Edit
Cornucopia is a classic figure in Dublin's vegan scene. However, some of their options are a bit too basic and reliant on vegan melted cheese. Nevertheless, their soups, stews and desserts are great.

Lots of vegan options - Edit
So many vegan options, the deserts really stood out, my non-vegan friends love the sausage rolls here too. Such a shame they carry dairy milk. They do ask your milk preference when ordering drinks though and I opted for soy. It'd be so easy for this place to go 100% vegan

Amazing food and amazing atmosphere - Edit
Anything you get from here will be amazing. I don’t even like lasagna and theirs made me question my whole life it was so delicious. They also make the best desserts ever like sweet roll cake and cupcakes. Their whipped cream is ridiculous. Perfect for a quick breakfast or a lengthy dinner.

Super zuppa di funghi - Edit
Great soup! I don't remember the name of the main course or dessert, but maybe I'll look into it tomorrow (because I'll definitely be back; I saw a two-tier chocolate cake and I don't want to miss it). Here, you can order at random because everything is vegan. Cornucopia is definitely my favorite place, not just in Dublin, but in the whole world. :)
Read moreGran buona zuppa! Non mi ricordo il nome del piatto principale e del dolce ma magari domani ci guardo (perché di sicuro ci torno, ho visto una torta al cioccolato di due piani e non me la voglio perdere) qui si può ordinare a caso perché è tutto Vegan. Cornucopia è definitivamente il mio posto preferito, ma non solo a Dublino proprio nel mondo :)

Pros: Zuppa di funghi, Tanti dolci, Variano menu ogni giorno

Hi, just to say that it is actually still not a vegan restaurant but vegetarian. The food is vegan but dairy milk and butter are still served, and you have to clarify when ordering.

Best Restaurant in Dublin - Edit
I think it may be a fully vegan restaurant now. But I’d double check the allergens just to make sure. The vegan shepherds pie was amazing, their baklava was also so delicious! The salads were also phenomenal. 10/10

Perfection - Edit
Update 2025: One of the best places I have ever eaten. It is now seemingly fully vegan but I did get offered dairy butter with my bagel. Yes it is a little expensive but it’s so worth it. The cakes are absolutely out of this world and all the staff were so friendly. There is seating spread across 3 floors and the whole building just has a great vibe. Please visit if you’re in Dublin!
Read more2023: I only ate cakes (yum) whilst here but they were absolutely gorgeous and I’d go back to Dublin just to visit this place!

Vegan Heaven - Edit
In this all vegan restaurant, we had an item of the daily menu each and left the place well fed and happy. For a decent price you get great food. Recommended!

Delicious homemade food - Edit
This restaurant feels like going over for food at your friend’s house who us a great cook. Everything is fresh and tasty, there are just a few choices but they are good. I am not sure why the restaurant is vegetarian: I saw milk just as an option for the coffee. All the food was vegan. It’s a great place for breakfast or lunch. I had the stroganoff and a soup and i loved it.
Read morePros: Delicious homemade food, Plenty of seating, Self serve so you get food quickly

Many options and good food - Edit
For me it's a must visit anytime I am in Dublin. There is fair amount of options, both savory and sweet and the food is generally very tasty with good portion sizes. For me the big plus here is that you can always have several vegan options that are not just burger, wrap and fries.
Read moreIt's a bit pricey but so is everywhere else in Dublin if you want to eat out.
Pros: Tasty food , Good options
Cons: Pricy

We both chose the vegan wrap - would have been nicer slightly toasted or warmed up as was cold and soup deal (they only had the sweet potato one left which was yum)

Perfect for breakfast, lunch and dinner - Edit
We weren't sure what the vegan/veggie scene in Dublin would be like, but we were pleasantly surprised. Cornucopia has graced the city since the eighties and it's easy to see why it's lasted so long and remains so popular. Great food, generous portions and decent prices. What more do you need! We had breakfast/brunch on three occasions and evening dinner once. My one piece of advice for dinner is to make sure you're hungry!

Great Food - Make sure you figure out the menu first! - Edit
It can be a little chaotic if you don’t know how the menu works, so check out instructions beforehand. It looks like they have at least a few different options daily, everything we had was tasty and you get a lot (especially if you do one of the specials/bundle meals.)
Read moreAlso, it’s not listed anywhere inside, but it’s all vegan from what I could tell (probably used to be vegetarian since it’s been around for a long time.)
Pros: Staff is super kind and helpful, Food was great
Cons: Confusing for first timers, Bathroom is on the 3rd floor?

Good place to sit and relax with coffee - Edit
Nice environment, good lighting.
Read moreI probably wouldn't go back for one of the mains as they are quite expensive (around €20).
I had a sandwich and soup which came as part of a deal (€15 for soup, wrap and €1.50 discount on a drink).
They have a nice extensive pastry and cake section and this is probably what I'll return for
Pros: Nice seating
Cons: Serves dairy milk and butter, Expensive mains
