Doolin Cafe

September 2021: There are no longer the same owners and the letter has changed completely. There are no vegan options!

Nice little cafe, friendly staff. The options on the menu aren't vegan but can be made vegan. It's limited but I'd rather have two good choices than twenty. The pasta didn't have much flavor but we we're very hungry. The Fuccacia was actually really nice.

Found this place touring around one evening and vowed to return early the following morning to sample the breakfast. The setting is lovely and I can't fault the cosy nature of the cottage. The Deli counter had a good selection of Vegan options including desserts which looked appetising but I decided to sample the vegan breakfast. Unfortunately the food did not live up to our expectations, the portions were very small (and consequently the meals expensive) and I found mine to be very underseasoned and underwhelming. The Vegan option was unimaginative and didn't come with any rasher/sausage/pudding or anything of that nature. I also thought it was odd that vegan butter wasn't available when Vegan toast was on the menu. We stayed in the Cliffs Of Moher Hotel the following night and I had their Vegan option for breakfast the following morning; it was essentially the same breakfast but was much more enjoyable and I would suggest worth the trip as Liscannor is only a ~15min drive from Doolin.

Nice, but expensive for what it is. I went here with my husband recently. Pricing is ridiculous here. The cost of the vegan breakfast is the same price as the Full Irish breakfast, which is annoying, considering you get almost the same things on both MINUS the meat for the vegan menu. It's ridiculous pricing. Vegan sausages are not expensive in Ireland (about €2.50 for a pack of 6!!! . There is no excuse for not providing more substance to the vegan menu, especially considering we are paying the same price as the meat-eaters!! I felt robbed here. We had just 1 sausage, a small amount of beans, a spoonful of cooked spinach, vegan toast, a few slices of mushrooms, and a chopped tomato all for a whopping €10. Meanwhile meat-eaters were given a feast. Absolutely joke of how they price things here. Either provide more on the vegan menu, or reduce the price by at least half. It is WAY over-priced. On the positive side, the woman who runs the place is very friendly.

I got the falafel and it was okay at best. Comes with a few chips and I bit into one and realized they were not vegan.
