No matter your dietary preferences, it can be nice to cut out meat sometimes.
There has never been more options for vegetarians to eat in Dublin. The selection is so wide now that people who do eat meat might opt for something meat free instead. If you’ve been thinking of cutting out meat, if only once a week, or for one meal a day, why not check out some of these amazing dishes.
Halloumi Burger, Fish Shack
Locations: Sandycove, Malahide
Yes, Fish Shack may be known for their fish, but they also do an amazing veggie burger and here it is. The Halloumi burger looks mountainous with shredded lettuce, tomato, red onion, and piri piri mayonnaise. The crispiness of that halloumi is making us drool.

Mushroom Toast, Urbanity
Location: Smithfield
We know mushrooms are a love/hate item, even amongst vegetarians, but personally we’re big fans. This shitake mushroom toast from Urbanity looks incredible. It comes with miso wild mushrooms, soy glazed tender stem broccoli, ginger and pumpkin puree, sesame scraps, and radish on sourdough toast.

Vegetarian Puffies, 147 Deli
Location: Parnell Street
They can do more than sambos. 147 Deli serves Mediterranean veggies, parmesan bechamel, goats cheese, basil pesto, and rocket, all baked into a delicious flaky pastry. This cheesy hot mess sounds like the perfect lunch.

Avocado & Mozzarella Wrap, 3fe Coffee
Multiple Locations
You can’t go far wrong when it comes to mozzarella and avocado. These veggie friendly wraps from 3fe Coffee is available to takeaway for a quick lunch, or you can sit inside on Grand Canal street or Five Points. Get yourself a side of chips too, why not? They’re veggie too.

Carbs on carbs on carbs. Griolladh’s Potato-o toastie comes with handmade sourdough, bombay spiced spuds, wilted spinach, and their signature cheese blend. Veggie or not, you’re going to love this sambo.

Cheese and Courgette Soup and Sambo, Tír Deli
Location: Baggot Street
This weekly soup special from Tír Deli sounds mouthwatering. Yellow courgette and cheddar cheese soup with pesto oil is the perfect winter warmer if you need a cosy and wholesome meal.
We hope we’ve set you up with some stunning meat free options to try this week. You don’t have to cut out meat completely, but sometimes it’s nice to switch up your diet. Plus it helps that veggie meals are just as delicious and innovative as meals that come with meat these days.
