There has been a line up outside this popular cafe whenever we walked by. On a weekday afternoon,…read morewe happened to be in the area and there was no line! Since we were on the way to dinner, we stopped quickly to share something and check out the hype. On the recommendation from our waitress, we got the Queen of Chocolate Fudge Cake. A layered cake with a thick layer of chocolate ganache on top. It was served with some whipped cream and berries. It was a good slice of cake, but not sure I wouldn't rave about it. The atmosphere is nice to have afternoon tea and unwind for a bit. A nice café, a bit on the expensive side but don't fully get the hype.

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.

First impressions: I came in the cold weather (late October) but was craving some ice cream. The…read moreline was long but the service was wonderful because they had one person offering any samples and as many samples as you want to try. I was able to try all the flavors while standing in line and this made the whole experience fun and I knew I picked the best flavor once I got to the front. There even a cute swing and sign for taking pictures. Unfortunately not much seating The Noms: I picked the brown bread flavor and loved it. Very smooth and creamy and the texture from the bits of bread kept it interesting. Since I got to try samples of the entire menu, I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. In Conclusion: 10/10 would recommend!

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.

Oh! This place has won me right over :-)…read more New on the scene in Dalkey village this is such a welcomed little gem. A gelato shop which has unusual flavours like crispy choc and they cater for much more than an ice cream so inside you can find yummy desserts and cakes on display... Crepes and Waffles too! They serve up hot drinks so this well round place will satisfy the winter treats but my god, this place is going to do awesome come summer! Friendly owners they will make you up whatever concoction you want. All the ice cream is made on site and their sauces are premium gluten free so this place is defo 5 star worthy! They also sell their gelato in large tubs for take away so you can enjoy at home. 4 sizes to choose from €7-€20 which I will definitely take advantage of soon! I had the hot waffle with choc ice cream and loaded with choc sauce - who said CHOCOLATE! It was lovely freshly made in front of me, it was hot & full of taste... Winning combo! My husband opted for lemon and sugar crepe it was vanilla flavoured and was unbelievably good! So next visit to Dalkey before you take a coastal walk or treat yourself after your walk with a little something :-)

It is lovely then to have this place just down the road from the office to run to every time there is a going away party or a birthday to cater for. The Den offers everything from savoury snacks to home made breads, cakes and a whole range of interesting pastas and preserves. Recently they have set themselves up as a cafe as well (with tables and chairs outside - it will last as long as this good weather does I'm sure!) I highly recommend the lemon drizzle cake, very very good indeed! ...just checked their website - its not up yet!

The counter is laden with apple pies and muffins, fresh flakey croissants with the gooey almond filling, and giant chocolate chip cookies that are chewy in the middle. The fridges have strawberry, lemon and Baileys cheesecakes, chocolate fudge cakes and cream sponges. The selection is rather small, which means everything is baked fresh every day. They make to order if you want something particular, a giant cake for a special occasion for example. The prices are quite high, but the ingredients and recipes are top quality. Treats like this are worth the splurge.
