Vegetarian café with great food and ambiance (4.5/5 Green Stars)…read more We stopped here en route to Carlingford on a friend's recommendation and all three of us were very happy we did. The place is lovely - the café is filled with light and plants and the surroundings are beautiful. Mum is a picky eater but she relished the mushroom quiche and finished the entire piece even though it was huge! (Seriously - about three times the size of portions elsewhere.) My brother loved his herbed rice bowl and I liked the organic porridge with fruit and the pistachio plum cake. The only kink was that several items arrived much later than the food - the coffees, bread, and honey for my porridge (I had already finished my porridge by then). The store is filled with great stuff - fresh fruit and veg, and a good selection of some of the most ethical products. Weirdly, the Strandfield website contains no info other than an address, so you have to rely on reviews to get info in advance. The lunch menu is mostly comprised of sourdough pizza, salads (including a quinoa bowl and herbed rice bowl), and sandwiches - see menu photo. There are also lots of bakery items, including freshly baked scones, cakes and wheaten bread (which was really good - I bought one to take home). I'm giving Strandfield café 4.5 out of 5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact, for these reasons: · I didn't actually notice at the time but the menu is 100% vegetarian! · Strandfield uses free range eggs from their own farm. · My porridge was made with organic oats · Flowers and plants in the café come from Stranfield's own nursery · The grocer sources local and organic fruits and vegetables along free range eggs, and organic health foods · The store stocks a really good selection of ethical goods - I could do most of my shopping here if I lived here. · Strandfield would benefit from providing more info (on the website or menu) on ingredient sourcing.

We spent 3 nights in the hotel and ate breakfast here daily…read more We found it to be a good value, with a full breakfast on buffet. Though the real winner was their flaky and fresh croissants, of which I had too many. In addition, there were many bread choices, scones & other pastries. There was also a gluten-free section, with pre-packaged baked goods, such as muffins. Cereals, fruits, deli meats & cheeses were all offered alongside the buffet line. Traditional foods: scrambled eggs (note: very soft cooked), black & white pudding, sausage, ham, potatoes, tomatoes and shrooms. Definitely worth including with your stay! We did not make it in for any other meals, tho I'm also adding a review for the ground level restaurant, where we had dinner.

Amazing vegetarian and vegan food in the heart of Dublin. It was always one of my favorite places…read morewhen I lived in Dublin, and each time I go back, I am always impressed as the menu constantly changes, and it is consistently the highest quality food. The recipes are so creative and full of flavor, and I got their cookbook too. I would love to eat like this every day if I could cook such delicious vegetarian food! Highly recommended, there are a lot of good restaurants in Dublin City, but this casual atmosphere and fantastic food is the perfect mix, and you feel that you're doing something healthy!!

Okay I have to be honest....I was pretty disappointed in this place in terms of the food…read more I am not a vegeterian or vegan at all, but I sometimes try these places if they have great reviews. And in US, I have never been really let down in terms of food quality. Most of the times they don't even taste vegan. But the green curry from Cornucopia was pretty bland....definitely the worst curry I have ever eaten in my life. And coconut curry is really hard to mess up, vegetarian or not. The brown rice came with some crunchy (from sitting too long). The salad bar was just okay as well. I am not sure how vegetarian/vegan meals are in Dublin, but this place is definitely not up to par in the states. That being said, I did like they had multi-level dining area and it was very comfortable being solo.

I ordered the vegetarian lasagna but I was apologetically informed that only a small portion remained. I smiled, "That's grand 'coz I was gonna have a scone too." She gave me the scone on the house. I'd been told the scones were to die for. They're not worth becoming a modern-day martyr for but I did start chewing really slowly just so I could hold the taste in my mouth for longer. I refuse to use the term "amazeballs" but I have to admit that it entered my head in this moment. Also, I'm pretty sure I witnessed a young couple dramatically break up outside the window as I savoured a scone. Sometimes, it pays to be single.

Great veggie soups and nice outdoor space (4/5 Green Stars)…read more Forge Field has become a regular spot for lunch when in the area and it's always a pretty good experience. The soup is always vegetarian, by the way, and really constitutes and entire meal with you eat it with the bread. The soups usually pair a (very sustainable) root vegetable with a spice or herb, for example carrot and cumin or the excellent parsnip and thyme. The goat cheese sandwich is also highly recommended. Tarragon mushrooms on toast are a staple for mum - it's the one item from the breakfast menu that's available all day. I'm giving Forge Field 4 out of 5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact, for these reasons: · Family-run business that makes its own bread, bakery items, etc. · Reasonably good selection of vegetarian options. Could have more on the vegan front but they will accommodate vegans with off-menu items, if desired. · Good supporter of local ingredients and businesses. · If you look to the left side of the parking lot, you'll see a new milk dispensing machine from Feckin Clogher Milk. You can purchase bottles and then come back and refill them over and over.

We all got the full Irish Breakfasts, which were delicious. I'll be dreaming about their brown bread toasts for a long time! We also enjoyed purchasing baked goods (scones and mince pies) in the adjoining market on a couple of occasions, which were also wonderful. The shop was also well worth a visit.

Fave place for coffee or lunch in Drogheda (4/5 green stars)…read moreThere are a few good places to eat or have coffee in Drogheda these days (such as Salthouse, down on the Quay) but Relish has been my favorite for a few years. They make nice flat whites, their scones are great, and every lunch dish we've had here has been good too. I also like the feeling of the place - it's situated in the old Franciscan friary, next to the Highlanes gallery (free entry) that occupies the church. Apparently the Franciscan monks had been in Drogheda for 760 years before they left in 2000 and donated the church and friary to the town. Relish café has lots of light and staff members are always friendly. I'm also giving them 4/5 "green stars" for social and environmental impact, based on these reasons: * They have a reasonable number of vegetarian/vegan items on the menu but could do with a few more. * For meat-eaters, all of the meat is Irish. * They use free-range eggs. * They say that they use "fresh and seasonal ingredients from local suppliers" but could be a bit more forthcoming with details. I wrote to them for more info but didn't hear back. * For a few items they do name their sources. For example, Hegarty's cheddar, which is made in Cork using milk from their own small farm and vegetarian rennet. That's about all I have - I'll try and pay more attention next time and pick up more info : ) Interested in writing green star reviews? If so, contact me!
