One of my favourites. - Edit
This is my third time visiting here and it's consistently delicious.
Read moreSome of the menu items stay the same in a seasonally changing menu.
The fava bean homous is something I think about sometimes as it's just so so tasty.
Highly recommend

Lovely brunch spot - Edit
Came for brunch with both vegans and non vegans and everyone cleared their plates. Both indoor and a covered outside. Food was all lovely, pancakes could have done with a little more cream. Coffee was a bit disappointing, slightly burnt. Overall a lovely spot though and would definitely come back and check out the dinner menu!

Seasonal small plates and fantastic natural wine selection - Edit
We went for dinner one Friday evening, and it was surprisingly quiet.
Read moreThe waiter was incredibly attentive and helpful which made for a relaxed and enjoyable experience.
We tried each of the small plates on offer that evening, and whilst the ingredients were very fresh, the quality of flavours was variable with some being incredible, others very good and a couple of them a little underwhelming (we had high expectations from the delicious descriptions of them!).
The desserts were delicious.
The natural wine selection was fantastic, we tried both a red and an orange and both were exceptional.
So all in all a very enjoyable evening. Next time we'll just be a little more selective about which small plates to choose.

Delicious, unique & creative - Edit
Some of our favourite vegan food and we’ve been vegan for 5 years! We opted for the ‘taster menu’ as we were both so hungry and it filled us up. Each dish was delicious in its own right. Beautifully presented and lovely, friendly staff! A must try!

Creative, sustainable food to nourish your soul - Edit
This spot outstrips more generic vegan restaurants, especially in terms of the quality of the food. The ethos of sustainability is also an important message, leading by example in how we should eat to nourish ourselves and the planet we call home. There are plenty of vegan junk food places, but for something much more special, I would really recommend this place. I had the beet fritters and a matcha latte, simple but soulful. I wish I could have tried more things on the menu and will definitely venture back when I next can.

Delightful Spot for Breakfast - Edit
I was attracted to Supernature by the the seasonal menu and healthier items.
Read moreI arrived by bike around 10:30 am and was the only person there at the time. The staff were friendly and attentive.
Seating is available both inside and out. Outside seating is through the restaurant on a nicely decorated covered patio which featured palm trees and other plants. Each table was adorned with a live plant— mine being a super chili which happened to be 50,000 Scoville according to the label.
I opted for the granola bowl which at €9 pounds is a fair value. The granola was the perfect chewiness and contrasted well with the oat cream. I haven’t had better granola than I’ve had here—likely because they make it in house. Everything in the bowl was fresh and the macerated peaches made for a great addition. My only feedback would be to remove the green leaves from the strawberry.
Supernature is an excellent choice for those looking for a spot offering great breakfast/ brunch. Additional things to note include the possibility to upgrade to a bottomless brunch for €40. Definitely try the granola here!
Pros: Fully Vegan, Seasonal Menu, Homemade Granola

Pros: Focaccia with fava bean hummus is an 11/10, Friendly staff and quick service
Cons: A bit too much oil on the food

Not only is SITE a chic & sophisticated dining place, it is also locally sourced, vegan & organic... the food is spectacular (special mention for the rarebit & the daily juices) The portions were perfect. Would have love to have tried the patisseries (sweet & savoury) so will probably have to return. *Service is included*

Lovely Food / Garden on Roof - Edit
I love this concept..The owner is growing many of the ingredients on the roof and soon to be in the back area. We are on a bright, cheery patio, and I ordered a fancy bowl of granola. The food is beautifully prepared, and the fact that many of the ingredients are from on the premises is a huge bonus.

Love at first Site - Edit
Not sure why everybody isn't talking about how good this place is. Anyone who enjoyed Slaw's pop up on Upper Street will love it. In a scene completely saturated with junk food, this is a joyful and life-affirming celebration of seasonal vegetables.
Read moreThe tahini cheese rarebit was so good, it made me sad when I finished it. So I had to order it all over again. And the chocolate and prune mousse with espresso and candied almonds was the stuff of dreams. Add to that a beautiful wine list care of Renegade Urban Winery and I feel like I might have to come back every week.
Pros: Thoughtful and inspiring, Beautiful outdoor space, That rarebit

More places like this, please! - Edit
This is an inspirational model for showcasing low-impact dining to an exceptional standard while maintaining an informal vibe. You can't go wrong with the menu as each dish is outstanding and any combo forms a great meal. The rarebit was so good we had to order seconds. I really liked the small plates to be able to sample more of the menu. You can probably manage six between two - make sure to leave room for the chocolate mousse. I loved all the plants inside and out, and the wine selection from Renegade too. The garden and interior are both delightful and there are some great book choices on your way in.

🌱 Plant Power💚 - Edit
Once you’ve tried one of the dishes you will want to return again to try the rest. Bottomless brunch is a great weekend option, particularly with a group of friends in the palm yard on a sunny day. Reliable for coffees, along with a chilli chocolate brownie or the seasonal carrot/beetroot cake. They are growing food themselves too including a mushroom farm in the basement!
Read morePros: Super chef & menu, Cool palm yard sun trap out the back, Great homemade products for gifts

Seasonal Delicious Next Level… - Edit
Everything from the All Day Brunch (with Bottomless Brunch option😉) to the small plates Evening Menu is creative, considered and delicious. Ingredients are seasonal, sourced locally (some from their own roof garden) and environmentally focussed. The interior is calm and plant filled, and outside there is a secret courtyard garden. Staff are all friendly and knowledgeable vegans.
Read morePros: Amazing seasonal produce , EVERYTHING is VEGAN, Super friendly with AMAZING tropical courtyard

Some raw desserts - Edit
Cute cafe. Went here for some cake to takeaway during lockdown. Tried the raw carrot cake and raw chili tahini brownie which were both excellent. Both were not excessively sweet and had a good flavor profile. Would definitely recommend.
Read moreUnfortunately they had no more vegan almond croissants left, so we might have to come again.
I also bought a jar of their fermented chili sauce. I usually make my own chili paste at home but wanted to try a fermented version. They also sell other home made sauces (pesto, hummus, sauerkraut, marmalade, chutney) which looked tasty too.
Nice selection of drinks.
Pros: Raw desserts, Friendly staff
