We stumbled across this while visiting Dublin, it was just becoming dark and the temperature was dropping and this little place was just the perfect little haven for a pit stop to warm up! We had a Baileys coffee it was really nice and a great price as well, really friendly atmosphere in here and I would definitely recommend it!

It really is small: no more than 3 to a table. The staff are indeed very friendly. The serving sizes are larger than I expected: I ordered both a Sweetest Thing hot chocolate (delicious and piled high with whipped cream and marshmallows) and a Sweetest Thing crêpe (large, filled with chocolate, with marshmallows, ice cream, and whipped cream). It was a challenge to finish it all, but it was too good to leave any behind. To my left was a conversation in Italian; to my right, one in Spanish: which gave the place a wonderful cosmopolitan feel. I'll be recommending this place to friends.

Delicious treats and wonderful atmosphere. Our large group of 12 almost took up the whole place. It is small, but you must make this a stop while in Dublin. Take a break from walking and enjoy a treat and cup of coffee. A couple of the kids had shakes and they were very satisfied. Others had the fudge cake, chocolate brownie and hazelnut cake and loved it. I had a warm chocolate muffin with ice cream-so yummy. The owner came around and talked to each of us and was so “sweet”. I as a little disappointed in the Irish hospitality until we came to The Sweetest Thing. Left a great taste in my mouth! Please support this little shop!
