Best Vegetarian Restaurants

Dublin is a really vegetarian and vegan-friendly city. Just about every restaurant - including steakhouses and seafood restaurants - will have some vegetarian options, so it isn't generally necessary to look for a vegan or vegetarian restaurant. However, there are lots of very good ones.

Dating back to 1986, this is the original vegetarian restaurant in Dublin - and still going strong! It's a casual dining, wholefood, vegetarian restaurant set in 18th Century Georgian dining rooms. The menu changes regularly but always has a range of options catering to different tastes and diets: vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, sugar free, coeliac and raw living. Everything is made fresh daily using plant based and vegan ingredients.

2. GLAS

Recognised by the Michelin Guide in 2022, Glas has raised vegetarian and vegan dining options to a new level in Dublin. It's sophisticated and elegant, which vegetarian restaurants often aren't! The idea is to showcase the range and depth of textures and flavours that can be achieved - and it's certainly succeeded in that. This is a vegetarian/vegan restaurant but it isn't just for vegetarians or vegans. Try the miso roast parsnips with carrot risotto, fermented beech mushroom and Jerusalem artichoke granola. It can be a little more expensive than Cornucopia but it's still decent value - two-course lunch menu for €25 or two-course dinner menu for €45.
