Cafe Paradiso

Ireland's best known vegetarian restaurant is located in Cork and attracts many committed carnivores.  It is known for it's high quality food but vegans should beware that many of the dishes do contain dairy.

Café Paradiso was listed in the Bridgestone Guides 100 Best Restaurants from its first year and holds the highest ‘icon’ status in that guide book. It was voted ‘Best Restaurant in Munster’ by the readers of ‘Food & Wine’ magazine in 2001, and Denis Cotter was voted ‘Chef of the Year ’ by the same magazine in 2005. The restaurant was also voted ‘Restaurant of the Year’ by Les Routiers Ireland in 2004.
Prices are on the high side for vegetarian cuisine.
