Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Lots of delicious looking vegan options. You order and get served straight away so great option if you're tight for time. Equally the kind of place to chill for longer. Lots of seating. Very friendly service.

If you're looking for vegan food in Dublin, you need to pay this place a visit! As well as drinks and cakes, there's an amazing selection of meals to choose from. It's a really cute and cosy restaurant.

Visited Cornucopia on a cold, wet November morning. The place is full of charm; wholesome food and welcoming staff. Great portion sizes. I love this place 😍

Cornucopia is one of my favourite restaurants in the world. The dinner options are incredibly tasty and appeal even to non-vegan eaters. I feel as if I can walk in here at any time of the day and feel immediately welcome and at ease. I...can't recommend Cornucopia highly enough.More

I went to this restaurant on holiday the end of last month because the menu stated that it served gluten free food. I am coeliac for over 20 years and get sick if I eat gluten and I stated this on ordering. The staff pointed...out everything to me that was supposed to be gluten free and went through each dish telling me what I could eat. I felt confident that everything was gluten free and ate the dish. About 15 minutes later after leaving I fell ill, having to exit my bus journey early to vomit the food I had just ate. I know the symptoms of eating gluten and this was definitely not gluten free. This is a warning to all about this restaurant which claims to cater for different dietary requests but beware.More

I’m a vegetarian and was really excited to find this place. I came in about 15 mins till closing (didn’t realize when they closed) and they were pretty much out of most everything except a soup. This was honestly perfect for me as I was...jet lagged and wasn’t wanting anything heavy so I was thrilled with just ordering soup. I can’t remember the type of soup but I want to say it was a potato and leek soup? It was a brown mush and had strings of likely leek or another stringy vegetable (e.g. - celery), which I just couldn’t tolerate. It was bland as well and though they gave a chunk of brown bread, it just didn’t do it for me. I really wanted to like this place given the reviews but their soup was a no go. I also ordered a strawberry cupcake, which was actually pretty good.More

It’s your canteen’s favorite foods but with vegan options in the majority! The restaurant is bustling, the layout is casual, the staff are busy, the food is Dublin prices and tasty. You can get it to go and an option!

Great, flavourful food in the centre of Dublin that I wouldn't call cheap but not hugely expensive compared to some places in town. The staff are super-friendly, and it's got a great, chill feeling despite being in the centre of things.

This is a very busy place with a slightly odd setup. You queue to order and get your food with the option to eat in or take out, then when eating in you have to then find a table. I find this odd as you...stand the chance of there not being a free table and holding your food. We got our food and made our way up the stairs to the first floor. The stairs are quite steep so mond your step. The food was really nice and very filling. I suspect options change regularly. Bit odd for a vegan place but they do offer real butter and cows milk? I didn't understand that. Otherwise I would go back again.More

Lunch time visit. Lovely plant based food and lots to choose from. Young and old here. Lots of seating inside and out. Space a bit tight at the self service counter. Drink’s options could be a bit clearer. Would I come back? Yes.

We had a 4 day stop on Dublin before heading back to the US, and went for lunch in Cornucopia after a quick Google search. We are both vegan and I have Celiac so finding this place was like winning the lottery. We sat on...the first floor right next to the window and enjoyed our amazing food and a couple of glasses of wine We came back two days later to sample more of their creations. The baked polenta is stunning. While sitting in the quiet 2nd floor dining room, I placed the green book order on Amazon so it would be there when I landed. I will be back if I get the chance but so happy to have a bit of Cornucopia in my own kitchen. Amazing place, food, and staff. Thank you!More
