Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Kinsale

"Having already won the hearts of Dubliners with their outlets on Dame Street and in Rathmines, Umi Falafel opened their first branch outside the capital earlier this year, on Academy Street in Cork. Their handmade falafel, cooked in low-fat rapeseed oil, is the centrepiece of the menu – you can get it in a sandwich of Palestinian pocket bread or a wrap, or you can try some falafel ‘bites’, either plain or stuffed with mozzarella cheese. These are best accompanied by something from their tempting mezze menu, or one of an array of healthy, freshly prepared salads."

"With branches in both Dublin and Belfast, if you’re looking for an authentic falafel experience then look no further than Umi Falafel.

Falafels are freshly made before your eyes and are made from a combination of 15 healthy and natural ingredients."
