25 venues in Dublin rated S to B for vegan, every tier backed by cited sources.
The Saucy Cow is a 100% vegan restaurant. Because every item on the menu is plant-based, cross-contamination with animal products is structurally impossible from the menu itself.
Sweet Churro's standard churros are all vegan, a fact confirmed by the venue's own description on HappyCow as well as multiple reviews on the site. The dipping sauces include vegan chocolate and maple options. Coffee is available with non-dairy milk alternatives.
V Temple Bar at Stoned is described as a fully vegan takeout restaurant across multiple reviews, with an entirely plant-based menu including vegan BBQ melt, vegan pulled pork, vegan ham, vegan mozzarella sticks, and mac n cheese — all items are stated to be vegan. No animal products appear on the menu, indicating a 100% dedicated vegan kitchen.
The venue self-describes as a fully vegan restaurant with a '100% plant based bakery' and all food made from 'plant based and vegan ingredients'; the menu lists allergens per dish and the kitchen mission is explicitly vegan. However, HappyCow confirmed in December 2024 that cow's milk and butter are available (for coffee), so the kitchen is not entirely free of animal products, though the food menu remains vegan.
Manager Jorinde Rolsma bakes vegan options at home in response to customer demand, but the venue is a shared sandwich bar and pizzeria with no dedicated vegan kitchen or fryer mentioned. The menu does not mark vegan items. Staff awareness is implied by the manager's personal baking, but no formal training or dedicated prep area is documented.
The corporate catering menu contains a dedicated 'Vegan' section. That section includes items such as Vegan Morning Sunshine, Vegan Sandwich Box, Vegan Morning Pastries, and Vegan Pancake Box. This indicates the menu marks specific vegan options. However, no evidence exists of a separate vegan kitchen, fryer, or preparation area. Information about staff training on vegan cross-contamination is also absent. The venue operates as a general bakery and cafe, so shared equipment is likely.
Menu items suitable for vegans are marked with a (vg) code, the Vegana pizza being one example. The kitchen is shared with no dedicated vegan preparation area. Staff can advise vegan customers on request.
Sano has two dedicated vegan pizzas on the menu and will swap vegan mozzarella (cashew-based) onto any other pizza at no extra charge. Vegan cheese is available and reported to melt well. The menu clearly marks vegan options. However, the kitchen is shared, and most pizzas contain meat or dairy, so cross-contamination with non-vegan ingredients is possible. A vegan dessert is also available. Good for ethical vegans who are comfortable with a shared kitchen.
Official menu marks multiple individual dishes '(vegan)' across all service periods — including Mildred's Beet & Apple Burger, Sweet Potato & Courgette Korma, Wild Garlic & Caramelised Onion Hummus, Wild Mushroom 'Meat'loaf, and Harissa & Roasted Squash Hummus. Dinner menu has a dedicated 'Plant Based and Veggie' section. Group menus note 'Vegan options available on request.' Some desserts offered as vegan on request with vegan ice-cream substitution. Shared mixed kitchen also serving meat and dairy dishes.
(VG) symbol marks vegan dishes (Vegan Breakfast, Mixed Leaves Salad). Menu includes a 'How to go vegan' instruction advising replacement of sauces and pesto with vegan mayo, tomato relish, apple relish, or guacamole, and requesting a lettuce wrap or vegan bun. Not certified vegan; shared kitchen with dairy and eggs present across most sections.
Two pizzas, numbers 3 and 11, are marked VG on the menu. Cashew cream is used. Other pizzas can be made vegan on request. There is no dedicated equipment; they are cooked in a shared oven. HappyCow confirms the presence of labelled vegan options.
Boojum identifies plant-based options throughout the menu: Mock Alt Pastor is a dedicated plant-based protein, Vegan Chipotle Sour Cream is offered as a dressing, and the Alt Pastor Crunch signature bowl is explicitly described as 'the ultimate plant-based order.' Customer reviews highlight Boojum as a strong vegan choice and the Just Eat brand listing confirms vegetarian and vegan options are available. All cooking takes place in a shared kitchen alongside meat and dairy, so strict cross-contamination avoidance is not possible, but for ethical vegans the plant-based items are easy to identify and order.
The menu marks vegan dishes with (VG), but the kitchen is not 100% vegan because dairy and eggs are present, and cross-contamination risk is shared.
Since 2017, Wagamama has offered a dedicated vegan menu. Roughly half of the menu is now plant-based. Vegan options include crispy vegan chicken, tofu katsu curry, stir-fried udon, gyoza, mushroom and aubergine bao buns, and sorbet. Dishes are labelled, and staff are familiar with the range. The kitchen is shared with meat and fish dishes, so trace cross-contamination is possible.
Many dishes across the full menu are individually labelled (vg) — including edamame, yasai gyoza, bang bang cauliflower, yasai katsu curry, tofu curries, plant-based ramen, shiitake rice bowls, koko prawn crackers, and most extra sauces and sides. A vegan filter on the menu page narrows choices quickly. The kitchen handles meat and dairy dishes, so cross-contamination risk applies, but the per-dish labelling makes vegan options straightforward to identify.
Govinda's explicitly caters for vegans and multiple sources confirm vegan dishes are available; however, the menu also features dairy-based items such as Panir (homemade cheese curd) and mango lassi, indicating a shared kitchen with dairy. No dedicated vegan prep area or allergen-marked menu is documented.
McGuinness's offers an extensive vegan menu. Items include plant-based burgers, vegan battered sausage, vegan chicken nuggets, and pizzas. The venue claims to have been 'the first and only chipper in Ireland to cater to all customers' with a dedicated vegan menu. This is a shared chipper kitchen. There is no evidence of dedicated fryers or prep areas for vegan items.
Nutbutter is listed as offering 'Vegan' options and described as a 'vegan-friendly restaurant' that 'fast-tracked pulled jackfruit and cashew cream into the mainstream'. No dedicated vegan prep area or fryer is noted, so cross-contamination risk is present.
Multiple sources describe Nutbutter as a flexitarian and vegan-friendly restaurant with vegan dishes prominently featured on the menu, including plant-based chorizo tacos and vegan bowls; the menu is not fully vegan, however, and non-vegan items such as Irish brisket, bone broth, and chicken are also served, indicating a shared kitchen environment.
Extensive vegan options, including vegan chorizo, plant-based cheese, and vegan desserts, are noted across multiple sources, and allergens are marked on the menu. Meat (pork) is also served on the same menu, indicating a shared kitchen environment.
Póg Bachelors Walk offers an all-vegan afternoon tea, and multiple vegan options are listed, among them a vegan pulled pork melt and pancakes customisable for vegans. The Wanderlog source explicitly notes that the venue 'caters to vegans'. No dedicated kitchen or vegan accreditation is evidenced.
Multiple sources confirm that POG offers a wide vegan menu. This includes a dedicated Vegan Afternoon Tea Menu and clearly labelled vegan options on the all-day menu, for example vegan option available on Posh Beans, Superfood Vegan Satay Bowl, and Vegan Banana Bread. Allergens are listed per dish, but it is a shared kitchen.
The menu designates vegan items with a (v) symbol, including a vegan sausage roll, vegan hot chocolate, and several other vegan treats. The kitchen is not dedicated to vegan preparation, and the risk of cross-contamination is acknowledged.
A named 'Vegan Mezze for 2' (€28) is listed on the menu comprising Hummus, Tabouleh, Stuffed Vine Leaves, Batata Hara and Cauliflower Fritters. Several dishes carry (V) marking but the menu does not use a separate VG/vegan code; vegan options must be inferred from ingredients. No dedicated kitchen or accreditation. Cross-contamination risk is not addressed for a kitchen handling meat, dairy and eggs throughout.
Vegan options are marked on the menu — the CHICK-PLEASE bowl is labelled VE, and a rotating selection of plant-based bowls (tofu satay, chickpea, umami) are available across locations. This is a shared kitchen that also serves chicken and fish, so full cross-contamination control is not guaranteed. Note that sourdough bread at some locations may not be vegan.
