Amazing pancakes!

Came here for breakfast on our last morning in Dublin. We both had the protein pancakes. I had the Post Workout and my husband had the Bueno.

The services was pretty quick and the food was banging. I've never had pancakes quite like them - they had a really great texture (I guess that's the protein?)!!

Pros: Variety of alternative milks, Pancakes can be made vegan

Cons: Not great vegan selection from the savoury menu

Staff not knowledgable

There were only actually 2 vegan options. They did offer two other things they could change on the menu but they were taking everything off the plate and still charging you full price. Also quite rude and no time for you. Wouldn’t go back.

Afternoon tea

Ordered vegan Afternoon Tea for two. Lovely place with the friendliest crew running it. Fab sandwiches and sweets. A bit confusing with one avocado toast and one hazelnut toast, there is no way you split them between two without making a mess. Why not make two (smaller) of each? As much tea and coffee as we’d like was included. The sweets included two different sorbets, one banoffee pie to live for, a brownie and one choc cheesecake. Again, charing is caring - but make them snaller and give us one each! Having said all that. I miss scones, but everything was really good and I would def recommend it!

Pros: Lots of vegan items, Friendly staff

Yummy vegan pancakes

Found the menu a bit confusing at first since there are no suggested options but rather all pancakes are fully customizable. They say to allow for 20 minutes for vegan pancakes but mine arrived much quicker and we're delicious. Will definitely come back!

Delicious pancakes but server could not tell me what was vegan

I was slightly disappointed here, yes they have vegan options, salads and breakfast stuff but I'd gone in for the pancakes. There were allergies noted on all the items on the menu but doesn't necessarily mean vegan so I asked which were vegan. They had to go ask someone and said 'vegans usually have fruit and maple syrup'
Wasn't very helpful considering the front window says 'vegans welcome' you'd think they would know if the dark chocolate chips were vegan, there were also Oreos and biscoff sauce etc.
Saying all that I did have fruit and maple syrup and it was all delicious. I didn't have biscoff as it was like €2.50 on top of the pancakes that were already €12.

Pros: Some vegan options , Sign saying 'vegans welcome'

Cons: Staff need more training in what is vegan, Expensive

More space

Not a whole lot of vegan options. But there is more seating space than the other Pog location in Dublin. Food tastes good.

Good brunch options

the pancakes were pretty standard. They have a few other vegan items. Accommodating staff and the vibe in the restaurant is very nice. I would eat here again

Pros: Reasonably priced

Mmmmmm, vegan pancakes...

I have been here twice. The first time I had avo toast which was okay. The second time, I had vegan pancakes, which were great. I recommend raspberry, crumbled digestives, and maple syrup as toppings: sweet, but not too sweet, neither dry nor gooey, but in the just right, Goldilocks zone. Highly recommended.

Pros: Great vegan pancakes, Friendly staff

This is a pancake place!

Lovely vegan pancakes, and friendly staff. The avocado toast can be veganized, and tasted fairly good (but the portion can ba a bit small if you're really hungry). That being said, you really should go for the pancakes.

Nice decor, and nice atmosphere.

Great vegan pancakes!

Came here for vegan pancakes a few times and they never disappoint!
I wish there were more vegan toppings available, the only vegan options are very sweet and so I can never finish the pancakes as it all becomes quite sickly.
Reasonably priced at €11

Also had a few coffees here which were lovely, a good selection of non-dairy milks.

(Sorry for the blurry pics - all I could find)

Great pancakes - not so great avo toast

I've been here a good few times and they're the only place I know in Dublin that does vegan pancakes, which is my go-to - they're a little on the dry side but I feel like the toppings make up for it. I went with my partner today and got them again and thoroughly enjoyed them, but my partner wanted to try the avo toast and they gave him only one slice with very watery blended avocado. He said it seemed like it was unripe and they used lemon juice to compensate. This costs €12 which is VERY expensive for what he got. He also got the oreo hot chocolate which I tried, and it seemed exactly the same as the normal hot chocolate, but it was extremely weak tasting, I think that cost €4 or something as well.

Overall I'd recommend it if you're looking for pancakes but not the other breakfasts, I don't think there are any other vegan options than the avo toast anyway.

Pros: Only place in Dublin for vegan pancakes, Great portion size for pancakes, Good selection of pancake toppings

Cons: Watery blended avo on the avo toast, Very expensive, Weak/watery hot chocolate

Great for all diets

I’ve been to this location twice now and everyone I’ve gone with has been very impressed. The food can sometimes take a while but it’s well worth the wait. I got the vegan burger last time and it was heaven, and vegan chocolate pancakes the other time (which take a while).

Edit January 2022: I hadn’t been to Pog in a little over two years and finally made it back this month. I ordered the vegan pancakes, and while they didn’t take nearly as long to make as they used to, the quality wasn’t great. The pancakes were tough to cut through (saw through) with a knife and were so crispy they would barely fold. They were dry and pretty tasteless. I’m hoping it’s not a permanent recipe issue and they do go back to the way they were before, but I won’t be going back for a while because I was very disappointed.

Pros: Great for mixed groups, Decent options (but not as many as they used to)

Cons: Can be a bit pricey , Can feel a bit cramped , Could use more vegan options

Good, but pricey

Had breakfast here and ordered vegan pancakes with almond cream, raspberries and blueberries together with a matcha latte.
The pancakes tasted good, but 2€ extre only to have the vegan batter is overpriced in my opinion. The matcha latte was good and nicely decorated with edible rose petals.

Cons: Expensive

Hearty vegan breakfasts

Lets face it, there's nothing quite like pancakes for breakfast. Make that loaded pancakes topped with oreos and fruit and it all gets even better. I will admit to some food envy when my wife ordered this. Still, I got to enjoy a fancy beans on toast, an equally awesome and classic dish. Large, filling portions for a reasonable price served with a smile is as good as it gets.

Pros: Very tasty dishes, Lots of vegan options, Reasonable prices

Very good vegan burger

Really nice vegan burger and some other decent vegan options are available too. Cool interior, gets very busy and noisy at lunchtime and tables are a bit squeezed but comfortable.

Cool cafe! ☕️

I love this cafe. Their coffee is amazing, they have great vegan options. They even do a vegan burger which is so tasty.

Been here a few tines. I’ve had their vegan waffles and pancakes and they are both so tasty. Their oat milk latte is pretty good too.

Pros: Great vegan options, Friendly staff

Cons: Some options only available at certain times, Could have better breakfast options for vegans

Yummy pancakes

I ordered the pancakes. You can choose from many items that you want to add to your pancakes, even a homemade Nutella! It can get expensive though depending how much you add

Pros: Lots of other vegan items on the menu too, Beautiful decor

Cons: Expensive
