    Great vibe. Nicely decorated. Great service and amazing food. A little hard to find down the alley but worth the search. Food was amazing. For your little vegans, be aware that music with explicit lyrics was being played when we were there. I have little doubt that the staff would have changed the music had we asked.

    Hands down some of the best food I have ever had. Doesn’t matter if you’re vegan or not, this place is beyond delicious. The tofu nuggets are hands down incredible. We went back 2 days in a row to get more. Hot Papi burger, waffle fries, loaded fries, Caesar wrap; you cannot go wrong. To whoever owns this spot, this restaurant would absolutely pop off in back home in Toronto. I’d quit my job and help you open and run it. Please. I need this food in my life forever.

    Amazing vegan food in Dublin! So delicious that we came here twice during our week long trip. The Mcdaddy fries were tasty but hands down the best vegan burger I've ever had. Great atmosphere and cool vibe. Well worth finding it down the alley.

    Finally went to the Saucy Cow and my only regret is that I didn't try it sooner. Delicious food and a nice clean restaurant. The staff are lovely. I recommend the Hot Papi as it is unlike anything I've tried before – in the best way possible. A must-go-to vegan restaurant :) Update: I now go here weekly, and it's just as good as the first time. Can't get enough of Saucy Cow!

    Absolutely, positively, 100% one of my favourite vegan “dirty junk food” places. When I lived in Ireland it was a must to have Saucy Cow monthly and when I visited Ireland in March, it was on the list of “must-do’s” and oh did I do it and oh did I love it! Craving there food was actually one of the reasons for me choosing to do Dublin for my birthday. The food is always amazing, the customer service is awesome and the new location has such a sweet, chill vibe. But let’s be honest, they can be anywhere and it will always be 100%. Love you lots Saucy Cow and you’ll forever be in my “must eat at places” when I’m in Ireland. When the time comes where I move back to Canada, I’ll be pestering you to open one there! Go support a local, small vegan business. Anyone complaining about the price…..inflation y’all - don’t complain to the businesses, complain to the government! It’s so difficult for small businesses out there - all around the world to survive - especially restaurants with all the insanely rising costs of absolutely anything and everything. Small businesses don’t have the buying power that major chains etc. have so please keep that in mind. Personally though, I find the prices reasonable, especially in this economic environment.

    Chip trays were large and filled. Unfortunately for the price the burgers were quite small. All the food was nice. Waffle fries were very good and seasoned well. Kind staff and funky interior design. Bathroom available in store.

    The burgers were very good. It tasted just like beef, although it was smothered in too much sauce for my liking. The sides were very ordinary, just like frozen food from the supermarket. A funky and modern eating environment.

    This is my all time favourite restaurant in Dublin. Every single time . Everytime we go I'm blown away , I go with family , I go for date night alot with my non vegan boyfriend who absolutely loves it here too ! The atmosphere is amazing and the decor is fab , the service is amazing every waiter we've had has been so sweet and nice. We regularly get a burger each and share one of their loaded fries , my favourite is the Big Mac loaded fries 🍟 Burgers are between 12 and 15 euro without a side but so worth it . Their waffle fries come w the best seasoning ever I love it all so much xx Overall I'm just obsessed w saucy 🫶🏻

    Very cosy atmosphere with a bombastic subwoofer sound system playing tasty RnB/UK Garage. The food was delicious and really wholesome and filling. I believe a nonvegan would equally enjoy this. Good prices good location great food

The service was very good also! So professional! The food was really prepared with love! Will definitely come back! Thanks Saucy Cow for the experience.

    Delicious food with good flavor and spice, good value for your money too. Unfortunately a small (and quite loud) venue so many were turned away while we sat at our table, and despite this the staff seemed to struggle to keep up. >1.5 hours for 2 burgers made this a less-than-perfect experience for us.

    Our experience was AMAZING, my best meal in Dublin. The staff went over and beyond to help us and accomodate our request, they really made the difference during our trip in Dublin. The food is amazing, the bar is in a very central area and, again the staff is great great great. You must go if you are in Dublin, it doesn't matter if you are a vegan or not, it is just amazing food! Go!

    Lovely place to eat. A lot of interesting new vegan food to choose from. The staff is very nice and polite. Before you even order they already serve you some water. :) 10/10 would come again

    So glad we checked this place out, loved the staff super friendly. And the spicy chicken wrap was delicious. My picky kids had a burger and waffle fries and ate it all! Super yummy lemonade drinks for the kids as well.

    What a fantastic vegan junk food joint this place is. The variety, the portions, the atmosphere are all incredible. The location is great too - situated in the Temple Bar district - so you can walk off that epic meal.

    This is some of the best vegan food you will ever have! Loved getting it at Eatyard but it’s so great to be able to get it on the south side and in a restaurant. The place is amazing with great vibes. Order The Big WAP you won’t regret it!

    Best vegan burger in town, hands down. The hot papi is an insanely delicious burger with southern fried oyster mushroom that hits the spot completely. Lots of other amazing options too. Hidden corner of temple bar and the place has a really nice atmosphere with lovely staff

    The service was great. Our order was taken very fast by a friendly guy. The food was delicious, and not just in terms of a vegan alternative. Neither me or my partner are vegan or vegetarian and it was one of the better meals we've had out in Dublin. I got a burger and my partner got loaded waffle fries. Both were excellent. The buckfast sauce on the burger was a bit sweet for me, but that's just down to personal taste. I still inhaled the jaysus out of the burger and enjoyed every last ..breath? It was a little dead when we went, but it was 3:30 on a Sunday so I didn't expect it to be jammers. Will definitely be back.

    Brought my non-vegan friend who loved it as well. Top notch service and quality food with a fun atmosphere. I was in Dublin for one weekend and this was probably the highlight meal of the trip!

    Very friendly service, didn't book and we were lucky to get a table as it was almost completely full. However, we were greeted warmly and swiftly then shown a table. The menu isn't too big and there was a specials menu with a delicious oyster mushroom burger. The Jalapeño Bbq burger was delicious too. (Forgot to take pictures of the food as we were hungry and it looked great!) Just the right size and a generous side portion of fries was €5 extra. Had an interesting selection of canned and bottled beers. Food arrived quickly with a smile. Very affordable for the city center. Although every table was occupied there was still a chilled vibe with great tunes. Would go again.

    If you’re looking for vegan food in the city center, this is great place to get good food. The portion are okay and the prices are a bit steep for my opinion, but the food was great!

  • 5/5 Hannah D. 6 months ago on Google
    Great vegan junk food in an amazing retro atmosphere with iconic rock music. Food portions were big, the decor was really cool and staff were so lovely and friendly. I had the Caesar wrap, which was fully loaded and super delicious. Can't wait to come back.

  • 5/5 Daniela S. 5 months ago on Google
    My favourite vegan restaurant! It is so good. The portions are big, the people are very nice and the service is super fast. Would definitely recommend it to everyone!

    So I had this place on my bucket list for a long long time and went today after I finally got free from my college assignments. Firstly it anyone reading just for recommendation- Big Wap is the best burger. So me and my friends went there to try different burgers and settled on The Space Cowboy and The Big Wap. The Big Wap was lot better and I literally couldn't tell it was not non-vegetarian. I am newly turned vegetarian and I can say for sure it's super good. The ambiance and location is nice and lovely too. If you come before 7:30 or 8 on a weekday, you'll be able to find a place easily. But it filled quite fast within an hour. Not sure about what's the case on weekends 🤔. Lovely experience with the food, expensive though specially for a student, but will try again in future.

    I've been meaning to try this place for ages, so finally popped in for a late solo dinner after an appointment. I underestimated how much they serve you, but there were two empty baskets and a happily full customer by the end. 💁‍♂️ - Loaded waffle fries with soy chick*n, garlic mayo and hot sauce - Oyster mushroom popcorn bites

    Super cool place in a side street of the temple bar! The staff is very friendly and helpful, everyone is welcome and the atmosphere is pretty cool. The kitchen is visible so you can even see who’s cooking your meal :) Really recommend the loaded fries! All dishes are freshly made but I never had long waiting times. Menu is decent - not overwhelming but you still have a good amount of different options of healthy vegan fast food. They also do take away. Highly recommend this place <3

    Off the track and hidden away this is a gem of a find. Food is pretty good. The environment is quite wacky and good vibe. Fun. 100% Vegan! Service let it down a bit as they forgot our drinks. The disabled toilet has a sign that says out of order but staff were using it. Don't bother with the beyond burger as this is no better than a McPlant and more expensive. Other burger options looked way better so I chose wrong there. Waffle Fries were great however. Loaded fries options were very good.

    Best vegan burger I've ever had!

  • 5/5 Florence M. 1 year ago on Google
    So glad we found this amazing gem in Dublin! The food was probably the best vegan food I've ever had and the vibes were super chilled, which was perfect for us weary travellers! I can't wait to go back again.

    The dzouble cheeze burger was a bit disappointing and overpriced, but the garlic parm fries were amazing!

  • 5/5 anne b. 2 years ago on Google
    We went here for my boyfriend's birthday. It was delicious! Definitely recommend the garlic parm chips! Thanks, Roisin for the birthday drinks!
