Sweet!
Ellen S.

An unexpected sunny day made me crave an icecream. Passing Sweet Republic, I knew they could help me out. Their menu is huge and quite complicated. I didn't feel like having anything massive or weird, so opted for just a soft icecream in a cup. (2 euro) and added toppings are 50 cent. The strange thing was that all of their toppings are mostly sweets and jelly beans and such, and no nuts, fruit or a variety of chocolate at all. She saw my unhappy face and suggested I could also add peanutbutter cups. OH YEAH!!! They weren't the tiny ones though, but the huge ones, that basically were almost bigger than my icecream. Well, let me tell you, never put soft icecream in a teeny tiny cup, it belongs in a cone or at least a larger cup. After 30 seconds the icecream started melting and it literally went EVERYWHERE. I felt like a 3 year old covered in one big mess. Not so sweet :-(

The food was delicious but felt like the cafe was aimed towards kids a lot as we were served with colourful plastic cutlery and the interior is very colourful. But i would seriously go back as the staff were friendly and the food was so good!

I loved it and can't wait to go back and try more. I had the Oreo Waffle Sandwich and it was filling! The staff were super friendly and the decor was super cute.

It was nice , very filling and extravagent ! But its a little bit pricey. I got a brownie milkshake and it was lovely but not presented well. Cream slopping all over it , thank god for the spoon ! The milkshake was kinda bland too. I may go for a waffle next time

I don't have a sweet tooth myself, but it was like watching children on Christmas morning watching all my friends faces light up in this place! Every flavour of ice-cream under the sun, cakes, waffles, chocolate, you name it, they would build you your own desert with it! The only thing I'm marking down on is the lack of gluten free-ness of the place (they couldn't guarantee things wont be contaminated) and the 20 minute wait to make an ice-cream.

I was very excited to try the waffles in Sweet Republic, having seen the amazing press release photos, however the cafe is extremely disappointing in real life. When you enter, there are no suggestions of how to order, or even signs telling you the different flavours of ice cream. When we ordered, I was told my order of a Crunchie and Nutella waffle with ice cream was a really "weird" choice, which I thought was strange coming from a staff member that had offered no guidance when it came to ordering. Disappointingly, they do not even make the waffles on premises---they merely heat up pre-made waffles from a packet, which results in you getting a cold waffle with a massive pile of ice cream on it, resulting in a bland experience. You get to enjoy this lacklustre experience sitting at one of two awkwardly placed kitchen tables where you sit with other diners, surrounded by craft kits that they are attempting to sell.

I always saw over the top milkshakes (donuts, cookies, candy, sprinkles etc) on Facebook so I was excited to see they offered them. They have about 4 pre created flavors that are outrageous. Even a unicorn themed one! But they also have some simpler ones like strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, with a donut and some syrups. I was hoping for something in between. So I asked if I could customize my own and was told I couldn't. I got the vanilla and it looked pretty plain, so I once again requested to customize. At this point they let me add a topping. I chose kinder bueno, which is amazing. Wasn't as outrageous as I wanted, but pretty delicious. The donut wasn't that great. My cousin kept it simpler, and ordered a scoop of the chocolate ice cream. She loved it. Overall it's yummy. Good variety. Very little seating space.

Came to Dublin and a friend told me about this bubble waffle ice cream place so of course I had to…read morego. I did have a bit of trouble finding it because the sign for the place is SO SMALL!! Spent maybe about 20 minutes walking around until I finally spotted it. I've added a picture so maybe it'll be easier for everyone who sees this. They have many different flavors for the bubble waffle but since I'm a chocolate person, I went with the chocolate dream. I would NEVER pay $10 American dollars for ice cream but this one is worth every penny! The waffle was made to order and I got to see him make the waffle and the rest of the cone. And when I say this thing is huge, it's HUGE!!!! Definitely got my $10 worth! Haha!! The taste......20 out of 10!! The waffle was so soft and fresh. The chocolate ice cream.....no words for how good it was. I'm not usually a fan of other flavors but this actually makes me wanna give the other ones a try. I strongly suggest making a stop here and getting a bubble waffle. I promise it'll be the best $10 you'll ever spend!!!!!

The place is primarily a waffle/crepe, milk tea, and desserts front, and we did had a good bowl of…read moresweet milk with jelly and taro balls. But read carefully and you can see two stores in one place: Bubble Waffle Factory (for the sweets and milk tea) and Street Food Factory (for savory options). The street food menu consists of a small but signature menu of beef brisket, beef tripes, and wonton noodle soup. And as a Cantonese, I had to say the quality exceeded my expectations. The beef briskets and beef tripes were braised thoroughly, super tender, rich flavor of spices and seasoning, while the texture of respective parts remained spot-on. The broth base also had great flavor. Portion size was good for the price. For the wontons, they were a bit smaller than the ones I had in another Cantonese place, and they seemed to have small or no shrimp inside, but the intense flavor of minced pork and the bouncy texture suggested the stuffing was of great quality, and the wrap was thin enough to melt in the mouth while also resilient enough to keep the wonton intact. My only wish would be that the noodles would be less runny and bouncier. But overall, I was very satisfied with this place.

A friend and I came here to get some Irish breakfast and cute lattes!! The first thing I noted were…read moreall of the delicious pastries on display. Next, I took a look at the menu! Since I don't eat red meat, I was very excited to see a vegetarian Irish breakfast option. I ordered this as well as a mocha latte. Despite the rain, my friend and I sat outside since all of the indoor seating was occupied. Thankfully some heaters provided warmth for what could've been a chilly breakfast. Very quickly the lattes came out which my friend and I sipped on. They were soooo cute, mine had the design of a little bear on top! The latte itself was hot and not too sweet, the perfect start to the experience. After a few short minutes, the food came out! Immediately, my friend and I dug in. It was honestly everything I expected and even more! There were no weak links on the plate and there were generous portions as well. I sat there for a while working my way through my delicious plate!! Overall, I was very happy with my experience at Beanhive. It was an aesthetic cafe that also provided a hearty breakfast. I would definitely recommend.

I really just went for the latte art and it didn't disappoint! Friendly staff and great customer…read moreservice. Shop is fairly small and limited seating outside but worth it! Art is made on every order so be patient! Matcha latte was delicious and snoopy was adorable!
