Love this place

Not enough vegan options today but the are on a smaller menu.
From an eco conscious point of view the fridge should have doors as its blowing cold air into warm.
No vegan butter for bread but they sell it downstairs, had to buy a tub and bring it upstairs.

Pros: Some vegan options, Vegan soup, Vegan deserts

Cons: No vegan butter, No vegan breads, No vegan cheese

Tasty breakfast

Simple Simons was a pleasant surprise on a rainy day in Donegal. The restaurant on the second floor is cozy and the friendly and helpful staff ensure a good atmosphere. It is not immediately apparent from the menu that there are vegan dishes available, but if you ask for it, you will be given options. I thus had a tasty vegan breakfast. If I come back to Donegal another time I will definitely revisit Simple Simons.

Phenomenal Sausage Rolls!!

Had the good fortune to stop here on my last trip to Ireland. I had the vegan sausage roll, accompanied by a range of vegan salads and sides. All were incredible!! Donegal & Simple Simon will always have a piece of my heart!! ❤️❤️

Pros: Lots of Vegan Options, Deli/Bakery/Store Combo, Amazing salads & sausage rolls!

Nice cafe in Donegal town

Deli cafe, health food shop and patio area downstairs. Sit down cafe/restaurant upstairs. Not too many vegan options upstairs. I went for the falafel wrap which was toasted, a nice touch.

Vegan friendly

A great find for a fresh lunch, and a dog friendly courtyard out back.The vegan wrap and choice of two salads were fresh and plentiful. Apparently there was also a vegan soup. I had vegan ginger cake afterwards with an espresso coffee. (Great coffee!) The health store alongside the cafe has a huge selection of products, and very helpful, friendly staff to help out. Well worth the visit.

Pros: Great place to stock up on groceries etc..

Cons: The vegan cake was slightly dry and boring.

Good Coffee

Great option to stock up some vegan products if traveling around Donegal. Very good selection of vegan cheeses for example. Price is the same as in the capital (Dublin) a bit pricey so. I was a bit disappointed with the coffee shop! No vegan pastries and cakes the day I went. Very few vegan options on the menu, my partner who is a vegetarian was quite happy though.

Pros: Variety

Cons: Pricey

Some vegan items

The cafe at the front has a few vegan items including salad and cakes. At the back it's mostly dry and packaged health food type products but does include a small selection of vegan cheeses and Tofutti mock meats and surprisingly a good selection of organic and natutal wines.

Pros: some vegan items to stock up on.

STOCK UP HERE IF YOU ARE SELF CATERING IN DONEGAL

Great selection of vegan foods, only discovered it on day 5/7 of my Donegal trip in Portnoo (where it is remote so very limited options). So many vegan items in the shop I hadn't even seen in England! Cheese, pesto, sauerkraut, fake meats, veg sausages & beans and tonnes more! Management also seem very nice!

Did not try the cafe/bakery but appeared to be some vegan options (although not labelled)

Pros: vegan foods in the shop

Cons: cafe limited/unlabelled vegan options
