Where to have a vegan brunch in Cork

Whether you’re recovering from a wild night or just enjoying the laziness of the weekend, brunch is the perfect thing to do on a Saturday or Sunday morning. And keeping it vegan is not so difficult if you know where to go. Choose among avocado toasts, savory wraps, homemade granola, full vegan breakfast, pancakes… here you have all of this!

At the end of this post you’ll find the map to Vegan Brunch in Cork, so you can save it if you want to keep it handy.


Dukes

Breakfast toast Dukes


Vegan options for breakfast:
  • Granola bowl
  • Vegan sausage roll
  • Vegan breakfast toast

If you want to start your day in a healthy way go to Dukes and grab an açaí bowl. And don't think you'll be hungry after that, their vegan açaí bowls are, not only delicious and beautiful, they are super filling.

Quay Coop vegan scone

Vegan options for breakfast:
  • spelt scone
  • chocolate muffins
  • breakfast bap
  • tofu 
  • savory pastry

You can’t go wrong with Quay Coop as almost everything is vegan. They don’t have fancy avocado toast, just simple and tasty options that are always good. I love their spelt scone, that is vegan, but you can choose something savory among their subs, baps and pastries.

Liberty Grill got me with their vegan French Toasts. They are sooo good and the flavours change often, so keep an eye on their social media to see what’s coming for the weekend.

  • Lemon square
  • Poppy seed cake 
  • Coconut roll

Coffee Scape Cafe has a variety of vegan options, both sweet and savoury. If you are hungry, I suggest you try their burek that is served with a red pepper sauce. If you are more on the sweet side, you’ll find different treats to pair with your coffee or tea.


Bright Side

23a Washington Street, Centre, Cork

Vegan Mushroom toastie Bright Side Cork


Vegan options for breakfast:
  • Mushroom toastie
  • Vegan oaties

This charming cafe that has recently taken over Pinkmoon, retains the cozy vibes from its predecessor, as well as the pet-friendly policy. Their offering includes a tasty mushroom sandwich and the delicious oaties from Pure Raw. Definitely a bright spot in Cork. Only opened Mon-Fri until lunch.

Douglas Court Shopping Center, Cork

Vegan pancakes Here's Health Cafe Cork
Veggie breakfast Here's Health Cafe Cork


Vegan options for brunch:
  • Veggie breakfast
  • Gluten free pancakes
  • Overnight oats 
  • Açaí smoothie bowl

Located in Douglas Shopping Court you’ll find this cafe with many vegan options both sweet and savory. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff very friendly (but keep an eye as they sometimes are not very attentive and forget or mix up the orders).


Naturally Nourished Cafe

Alfred St, Victorian Quarter, Cork, T23 YY09

Naturally Nourished Cafe drink Vegan peanut butter toast Naturally Nourished Cafe

Naturally Nourished Cafe vegan porridge

Vegan options for breakfast:
  • Porridge
  • Avocado toast
  • Peanut butter toast

Naturally Nourished Café has a few vegan options and a beautiful atmosphere. The place in Penrose Wharf is really nice and quiet. Only negative point is they open just Mon-Fri.


The Spitjack

34 Washington St, Centre, Cork

The Spitjack vegan sweet potato toast

Vegan options for brunch:
  • Rotisserie Sweet Potato Toast 

A classic for brunch in Cork has added a vegan option to their menu, the Rotisserie Sweet Potato Toast with vegan feta cheeze, avocado, tomato and rocket salad. Some of their toast -with mushrooms, with baked beans or with peanut butter and banana- seem easy to veganize.
