The Lovin Round Up – Openers, closures and everything in between

Welcome to The Lovin Round Up, our weekly look at the main foodie headlines for Dublin over the last seven days.

It’s like a Craig David song, but with restaurant openings and closures instead of… whatever it was he got up to.

This week we’ve seen new locations for a few popular Dublin eateries, a surprise but very welcome return of Chapters and a sad goodbye to one Clontarf spot.

Let’s get into it.

Vegan Sandwich Co opens Stephen’s Green location

A cult favourite among plant based Dubliners has ventured south, bringing you the best in chick*n fillet rolls, vegan doner kebabs and beyond. You can read more about the new opening HERE.
