A slice of vegan heaven - Edit
A little slice of vegan heaven in Dublin! This wasn’t here the last time I visited Dublin, so I was really happy to find it. They had a great offering of vegan sweet treats like cinnamon swirls and cookies, as well as options like wraps and oatmeal. I had the tofu scramble wrap and it was so delicious and filling. It’s a good place for something healthy and wholesome as well as a coffee and a sweet option. I hope I can visit again soon to try more of their food.

So pleased I came here! - Edit
This was my first stop after landing in Dublin. I got the OG cinnamon roll which was huge and a vanilla latte. Their default milk is oat but can be changed to other plant milks and syrups are free (!). There isn’t much seating but as it is a tiny venue this obviously can’t be helped. I highly recommend visiting if you’re vegan in Dublin!

Great breakfast option - Edit
Lots of flavors of cinnamon rolls and some cookies too. The matcha cookie was especially nice, as well as the matcha latte. Beware there’s not much seating inside, just a few seats by the window

Delicious food and cinnamon rolls - Edit
We had a wrap and a sandwich here then took 1 biscoff and 1 apple and pecan cinnamon roll away to have later. Everything was delicious! Especially the Hot honey trap sandwich!!

Delicious vegan cafe in Dublin - Edit
It's a Trap is a delicious cafe in Dublin City centre, close to Dame Street. I went there and tried the Pesto and Seitan Wrap, my favourite, the Ruben toastie, and a Bailey’s Cream & Cherries cinnamon roll. Their seitan tops every other I've tried before
Read moreThe café also showcases visible activism and enjoys a convenient spot near the main tourist area. Its only drawbacks are the limited space, which means few tables are free during busy periods, and a price that is on the higher side but typical for Dublin
All things considered, It’s a Trap provides a tasty, ethically focused vegan experience that’s well worth a visit
Pros: Delicious Seitan, Friendly Staff
Cons: Limited space

Lovely breakfast - Edit
The cinnamon buns are absolutely huge and so nice. I went for the cream cheese which was great. I also had an iced matcha which was one of the best I’ve ever had. There is only very limited seating so I took mine back to my hotel.😄

Café alternatif - Edit
Alors, sachez que l'endroit est MINUSCULE. On était contents d'arriver peu avant l'ouverture car c'était le rush. Heureusement, ils ont une terrasse mais les places sont limitées...
Read moreOn a juste pris les cinnamon rolls qui sont énormes et goûtus mais toutefois assez légers.
Parfait pour commencer la journée. Les cafés sont bons.
Ce lieu est populaire et vite pris d'assaut. J'aurais bien aimé tester les toasts et le tofu brouillé au menu, ça me faisait de l'œil 👀 mais pas eu l'occasion...
Pros: 100% vegan
Cons: C'est très petit

Sweet little cafe - Edit
It’s a very small nice coffee place. They offer wraps, toasties and pastries. I had the mushroom and cheese toastie and it was delicious. The cookies are also very good. The place is quite small so takeaway is a safe bet.

A vegan gem in Dublin - Edit
This is a fully vegan cafe, with an indoor bench and outdoor tables. The scrambled tofu wrap was one of the most flavorful breakfast tofu I have ever had. Vegan cinnamon rolls are their claim to fame, and they are amazing. They also make espresso drinks. The owners are kind and lovely people. Make sure you stop here if you are vegan and feel like delighting your palate.

Okay but won’t go again - Edit
Was really looking forward to trying the food as it looked great but was disappointed with the Ruben as it was very dry and sharp, needed a mayo or something to smooth it out and customer service was also disappointing unfortunately.
