2 vegetarian places in Cork we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in Cork | Vegetarian across every city.

Cork has an unusually deep vegetarian tradition for its size, led by kitchens that treat meat-free cooking as the main event rather than an afterthought. Paradiso on Lancaster Quay is internationally known for its vegetarian tasting menus, while Quay Co-op on Sullivan's Quay covers the everyday, wholefood side. Both sit around the South Mall and Lancaster Quay end of the city.
