The Happy Pear began in our Greystones shop, in 2004. Dave and Steve had a dream of making the world a healthier and happier place, and they started by opening a simple fruit and veg shop in their hometown.
Their passion for plant-based food led them to open the cafe a year later, and now almost 20 years on, the shop and cafe on the main street and our cafe in the leisure centre in Greystones continue to be a hub of community, positivity and delicious plant-based food for locals and visitors alike.
Over the past 10 years, Dave & Steve have written 4 International Best Selling Cookbooks. They all focus on turning great produce into great food in the easiest way possible. Our cookbooks are full of irresistible recipes for everything from breakfasts, lunches, dinners, cakes, sweet treats, special occasion splurges and much more!
Our 5th book, 'The Happy Health Plan' is our first health and lifestyle book with over 80 delicious plant-based recipes, health plans, meal pland and shopping lists that have helped more than 50,000 people across the world improve their health.
Our latest book 'The Veg Box: 10 Vegetables, 10 Ways' is designed to help you waste less food with delicious recipes to help you waste less and to inspire you to eat more plant-based food. We have taken the 10 most common veg and given you 10 of the most delicious ways to cook these veg using 10 ingredients or less.
