Amazing ice cream and many vegan options. You can customize or get pre-made cones! A great find!

One word to describe, FABULOUS! The waffles are wonderful, so is the ice cream. Lots of choices. As for me, chocolate waffle, hazel nut ice cream, Bueno pieces and chocolate drizzle. Yum! read more

Very decently priced, super quick line, very nice staff loved it all!!! we were able to get a group in within 5 minutes. Trendy and upbeat read more

This tiny place is totally worth a visit. Bubblewrap Waffle can definitely develop a line. However, it is so worth the wait. The restaurant gives you the option to either select a waffle creation or simply create your own from scratch. You go through the line watching the employees create other waffles which helps the wait in the line go by faster. The waffle itself was very tasty and was a good size for the price. read more

Bubblewrap Waffle - Bubblewrap Waffle with vanilla gelato, Oreos, Nutella drizzle, powdered sugar, and Kit Kat pieces - Waffles Near Me - London, XGL

This is no ordinary ice cream place..for it is much better. Not only is this ice cream creamy and smooth and soft, but it is topped with lots of sweets and fruits of your choice. The can lengthy and can stretch out into halfway in the street, but the shop is small and it can only fit about 15 people inside (excluding the workers). There were plenty of toppings that you can add (technically as many as you want)! I would recommend choosing a flavored cone because once you've eaten the ice cream, then there is only cone (which is probably one of the best cones I've ever had). It had varying flavors and it was beautiful looking. Just like the pictures!! Can cool you off on a hot day. I would not recommend getting the matcha (they have branded mixed flavors that you can't change or a make your own) because my father said it was one of the grossest things he's ever has in his life. If you're gonna go, go all the way with making your own completely from scratch. I would definitely go again, and it was really good. read more

This is obviously a tourist trap, but who doesn't love bubblewrap? It was adorable, and I have no shame. Eat it if you like ice cream, mochi, red bean, and all things kawaii. read more

On my first day in London I stopped by Chinatown just to try Bubblewrap Waffle. I know we have many places in NYC but wanted to try it in another country. I was blown away with how it looked and it tasted! 10/10. It was a little pricy you could say but totally worth it! You can create your own and go by their menu. I'm happy I crossed this one off my to-do list in London! read more

Soooo good! It tasted as good as it looked! The place is tiny and often has long queue. The queue is a little awkward inside with people entering and exiting the a very narrow doorway. No biggie though. Great dessert after dinner. read more

First time we tried this place. Very busy, line is out the door and winds. Located at the edge of Chinatown in London. Based on the line we thought it must be good. So we stood in line like everyone. Took roughly 30 minutes. Very small store. Has a big picture window where customers waiting outside in line can see the waffles being prepared. Narrow building so line goes in & wraps around. So everyone is cozy in the line. When you finally make it inside, you can smell the goodness of the waffles. So many options to choose from. There are preset waffle options on the menu or one can create their own. We went with one on their preset menu with chocolate. Very tasty little waffle puffs. Very airy & light. Kinda makes you feel like there are no calories, wishful thinking, haha!! read more

Waffle up your day with this unique ice cream creation. They do a waffle, roll it into a cone und fill it with all kinds of crazy stuff. Chose between ice cream scoops like vanilla, matcha or strawberry cheesecake, add toppings like fruits, nuts or sweets, add a sauce and you get an amazingly huge and individualized ice cream. Super yummy, although waiting in line for about 40 minutes takes longer than the actual eating process. read more

I found this hidden gem when I was in Los Angeles. I had bookmarked it in hopes of one day coming and I did! Although it's a small little shop they can really get down to business. They make these delicious and fluffy bubble wrap waffles right in front of you. They are so fresh and soft that they melt in your mouth. There was no wait whatsoever. I will never forget this place and hopefully I'll be back again one day! (Until then please make a shop in LA! ) read more

Bubblewrap Waffle - Waffles Near Me - London, XGL

My friend Seneca visited London a few weeks before my visit and absolutely RAVED about this place, so naturally it was one of my first stops! I got there about 15 minutes before it opened, and there was already a queue of about 10 people. Luckily the employees are efficient and the line moved quickly. They also passed along menus while you were waiting, so you could decide while in line. I got the original bubblewrap (there was also cocoa and matcha) with matcha ice cream, nutella (naturally) and strawberries. It was absolutely delicious and lived up to the hype. It's also housed in this genius paper cone - there are little perforations along the cone so you can tear off strips as you eat and still avoid getting your hands sticky. I'll definitely be back! read more

I've had Hong Kong bubble waffle before. I've had gelato before. But never have I thought of eating them together. So well done Bubblewrap Waffle! This is an awesome combination you defo don't wanna miss out. Check the inside menu to see what are the seasonal options - now they have matcha base and raisin base. But be prepared to wait longer time for special bases. I chose the original base with matcha green tea gelato and hazelnut topping. Both the base and the gelato were great. But the waffle was too crispy that it could easily collapse :-( read more

Had to wait for about two hours for this! You can either do a make-your-own or choose from the menu. Price goes up as you add more ingredients. read more

Bubblewrap Waffle - Oreo-up + strawberry - Waffles Near Me - London, XGL

After a nice stroll down Westminster and into Leicester Square, we walked into Chinatown and were alarmed by a group of people standing in line to go into a store.. We randomly decided to get in line and see what the commotion was about. Turns out it was the grand opening of Bubblewrap! So we waited for a bit [which wasn't that bad as we were trying to figure out what Bubblewrap was and after that, had to get our minds straight on what we wanted in our waffles..] So Bubblewrap is a waffle place that makes waffles that look like ..bubblewrap. First you choose your waffle flavor (plain, chocolate, or matcha), then it's made to order and the waffle is formed into a cone. Then it's stuffed with all sorts of things: ice cream, fruits, chocolate/caramel sauces, chocolate bars, mochi, and even red beans if that's what you fancy. Finally, you either attack it like you would an ice cream cone or pop off the bubbles and dip them into the toppings before popping it in your mouth. Either way, very delicious! Refreshing and oh so enjoyable. My favorite is the one with strawberry cheesecake ice cream and Oreo bits with salted caramel sauce, but I'm very excited to try all the variations -while trying to mind my waistline. My friend got one with vanilla ice cream with strawberries and Nutella on top and loved hers as well. Initially we thought of getting one waffle to share as it seemed like it would be a meal, but we got one each and somehow got through all of it comfortably and it wasn't killing us by the end of it as the waffle is super airy and light. Also, props to them for the sturdy and tightly sealed cardboard waffle receptacle.. It made eating the waffle more convenient and kept the sauces and melting ice cream at bay. It didn't leak at all, making your waffle eating on-the-go experience just that much better. Overall very delightful! read more

Overall, it tasted okay. I thought it was over priced especially for the toppings. I paid 8.49 total. Yes it is pretty, but was it worth 8.49? no. 1 strawberry thinly sliced into 6 pieces (additional 0.50), 3 half cut raspberries=1.5 raspberries (additional 0.50) , 4 pieces of mochi (additional 0.50), whip cream (0.50) and condensed milk drizzle (0.50). I expected a bit more toppings. I'm glad I got to try it, but I probably won't get it again. read more

Heard about this place on a new television show Whiskey Cavalier, with Scott Foley (Scandal) and Lauren Cohen (The Walking Dead), looked it up to see if it was a real place, it was, it is, put it on my list of things to do in London. Did it, got it, would do it again. Very good, definitely worth every pound and £. The bubble wrap waffles cone is better than any in the US. Might do this again while in London. read more

We loved our waffles! Yes, the line was a little long but for me it was worth the wait. It's in Chinatown and the perfect photo op with your cones. We went on a Tuesday evening about 8pm. We waited in line for about 45 min. My sister and I demolished it. The waffle itself has an interesting flavor like a sugar cone but not exactly. Pics are great for IG. We went and stay at a park to the left of the Lego store to eat. They only had 2 people actually assembling or order. One guy was working 3-4 waffle irons at the same time. One young lady was on the register. That's why it takes a while. But just pack your patience. You know everything is fresh because it's made in front of you. read more

Got a chance to visit this shop recently. The smell was amazing and I really could have probably just ate there all day but alas we must limit ourselves. I had the fish shaped cone and my daughter had the bubble waffle we each tried the other and both were really good I think I preferred the fish cone myself. They only had vanilla or green tea for options on the ice cream and the Oreos were peanut butter so something to be aware of but overall very good and glad we got there read more

This is my last bubble waffle in Chinatown before I headed back to home to Taipei after a semester abroad in London! My friend got the original bubble flavor while I got the special matcha bubble flavor! Both of which are £4.50 each. When I got there, the queue was out of the door. Luckily, it was a fast paced queue which meant that the employees were efficient and speedy! This place was quite easy to find because the sign on the glass window is relatively huge. This is definitely worth a try if you have never had Hong Kong bubble waffles before! read more

Waited in line for this delectable goody between parts of the cursed child. Well worth the wait and satisfying enough to skip dinner! The employees here were kind and took their time and attention with my order. As the assembler handed my waffle to me with care she warned, be careful! This was so beautiful thy a stranger asked if she could photograph it! And it was delicious. The waffle was light and airy, not crunchy. Ate the dessert in its entirety. I went with my own creation: hazelnut ice cream, which was creamy and not at all too nutty; Oreos, white chocolate, syrup, condensed milk, and whipped cream. A little pricey but I splurged (£8.50). Everything about it was delicious. read more

Fresh made waffles in front of your eyes while you wait in line! First bite is nice and crunchy. We had it with the matcha scoop topped with mochi and bananas. I was very happy with everything and the service is super friendly, but the prices are a bit steep, probably because it is in a touristy area. This is a take away sort of deal, but your bubblewrap will be served in a convenient to go cup. We had dinner beforehand, so sharing one between the two of us was good enough. If you have never had one, then what better place to experience your first than in Chinatown?! read more

Visited this place from the USA and if I could eat here everyday - i would! Absolutely delicious and highly recommend.

The ice cream is so creamy and delicious and the bubble waffle is so perfect to absorb the ice cream. We got the chocolate ice cream with salted caramel sauce which was a lovely combination. After a good size dinner I just got one cone and split it with another person and it was more then enough to give us both a good taste! read more

Not worth the price or the wait. I got the 'matcha break,' which is 7 pounds for an egg waffle with gelato and kit kats and some salted caramel syrup which in my opinion did not work well with the other toppings. It tasted ok for what it is, which is basically an overpriced gimmick (the store calls itself "the next instagram sensation" on their window.). I've had better egg waffles elsewhere. read more

my first (and only) tasting of the bubblewrap waffle luckily (for me) happened at their berwick street market stall, a week or so before they finally opened their chinatown venue. there were only a couple of people queuing, and from order to first bite the waiting time was about seven minutes. perfectly acceptable, even though only one waffle maker was working. the other one had gone kaput, but was quickly fixed and put back in use. they didn't have any ice cream as i expected (maybe i misunderstood the pictures/marketing, maybe they were out of ice cream) so my fillings were whipped cream, banana, pecan and salted caramel sauce. all tasty (but i should have asked for more cream/sauce). the fillings in my opinion should have been layered; they just dumped the bananas and pecans on top of the cream and once they were gone it was just the cream. the waffle itself was ok, if nothing mind blowing. it tastes like waffle but much thinner - the bubbles are obviously hollow so it *looks* like you're getting a truckload of food but actually it's not very filling. it's more like a thin crepe in a funny shape. that's all the hype is about: the shape. it's cute, colourful, tasty enough, instagrammable and everything. the duo running the stall seemed a bit overwhelmed with the tiny queue + malfunctioning waffle maker, but always smiling, chatty and helpful. i'd give them a 10 for service. so imagine my surprise a few days later when they opened in chinatown and i saw queues of OVER TWO HOURS. i followed them on twitter to check the reports and as expected they were not prepared for the huge numbers of food-trend-hunters that haunt london streets in search of novelty. every day they were forced to apologize for some vital ingredient missing, and i imagine how pissed i would have been if, after queueing for 2h30, someone told me "i'm afraid we're out of matcha base/ice cream/bananas/nutella/whatever it is you waited 2h30 for" it would be better for the business and the customer if everyone waited for the hype to die down a little, but then again i understand this is not how hypes work. in a couple of months there will be another novelty in town (rainbow chips or whatever) and everyone will be flocking there, allowing the "old news" to serve a better, consistent service to their (hopefully acquired) faithful clientele - or starving it from customers untill it dies a death. i hope bubblewrap waffle navigates through the initial hickups and stick around, at least for the lovely people making it and serving it. read more

What's not to love. Got there fairly early and queue was small. (Can get pretty long). Absolutely delicious. Blew my diet for it big time!

A little bit pricy, but is okay, still wanna try. So pretty, i wish they can give two scoops of ice cream instead of one. Love it, love it, hope they have something similar in USA. read more

Was so delicious!! Definitely recommend giving it a try! It's usually a pretty long line, I had to wait about 15 minutes which was pretty short in comparison to the 1 1/2 wait the night before. I got the berry good (strawberries, whipped cream, and Nutella drizzle) but I added the pistachio gelato. The waffle cone was warm and soft which paired nicely with the ice cream. I savored every bite. It is a bit pricey, but you get a lot. It's best to share with someone. It's fun watching it all being prepared. read more

Unique concept. But ice cream and waffle don't taste as good. Could probably get much better ice cream elsewhere for less.
