We a party of 4 went here on a Saturday afternoon in early December. After completing a 2 hour open top bus tour we were feeling cold then discovered this little gem. After showing our vaccination certificates were allocated a table. There was a good range of hot drinks available and the selection of pastries was huge. It took quite a time to select our choice. The cakes were fantastic. The staff were friendly. Defiantly the place to head for if you have a sweet tooth.

I’ve been to the place twice and both times I had a wonderful experience. Coffee is great and the desserts, omg, can’t describe how tasty it is. Highly recommended

My go to cafe in Dublin city. It's got the best hot chocolate in the city, and I've tried them all! The cakes and crepes are delicious and they have a wide range of coffees too. To top it off, the staff are amazing and the interior is cosy and inviting. What more do you need? Highly recommend

G. C.

Lovely place, it's cozy and the decoration, ambience is really nice. The cakes were heavenly delicious and the coffee was great too

Nothing better than a lovely coffee in a cozy place with your friends and also some sweets so you must go to The Sweetest Thing. They have my favorite dessert - Banoffee - and much more. Staff are kind, helpful and also very friendly.

Lovely little place, some great desserts and friendly staff. The building is quite small though so you may not be able to get in at busy times, but it is worth it I had the fudge cake and an orange hot chocolate absolutely delicious, other part members had a roulard which went down very well and sweet crepes also delicious. We were not sold on the savoury crepes, tasted like a sweet mix, so maybe getting savoury from a place called the sweetest thing is not the best move 😆🙈

N. P.

I been going here for the past 4 years. It is a very nice and small place to hangout with friends. Sometimes, it get busy and crowded. Sitting outside in summer is the best feel, especially in the evening, during sunset. People work here are great, great service and lovely people. The prize for the drinks are reasonable. And some drinks taste different to other cafa. I would recommend it anyone. I bring my friends here most of the times. It's in the heart of city. Food for lunch are nice and yummy. They serve well too.

S. C.

#2 on the top 10 places that serve the best hot chocolate in Dublin. Yes, I’d say it’s well deserving of this ranking. My two kids are dairy intolerant... so, as a place that serves only dairy based drinks, you thot this would be a problem. No, they went the extra mile to make it special for my kids. Thank you, sweetest thing.

Staff are amazing, such a lovely atmosphere. The hot chocolates are top notch and good value!

E. P.

The fudge cake is amazing!!! I ordered it on recommendation from the girl working and was not disappointed. It came out warm with a side of ice-cream and cream. Super delicious. The cafe is cosy with about 8-10 tables inside and I think 2 outside. I really enjoyed sitting by the window and watching people go by.

S. P.

Loved the “ The sweetest thing hot chocolate” from this shop. This cafe is in fact really sweet to look at and have amazing “sweet things”. Yummy yummy cakes and the staff is really sweet as well😜. It is right where we get down from the Dublin coach. So an ideal place to visit for travelers as well.

Such a lovely place! I would definitely recommend to stop by for some delicious treats. Very good Chocolate fudge cake and pancakes. Give it a try if you are around.

M. G.

Stopped here for a dessert with a friend. I ordered a bayles cheesecake, it was very soft and delicious and not too sweet. My friend was very happy about her chocolate cake too!

M. M.

The Sweetest Thing Cafe will offer you some fabulous desserts and cosiness! Divinely delicious! A great little place to relax and enjoy your romantic date. I'm in love with this place. I'll certainly come back again!

P. C.

The Sweetest Thing has the sweetest people. They stayed open late to help make a little girl’s birthday more special with the best hot chocolate and gluten free brownies.

Best hot chocolate in Dublin by a country mile. Staff are incredibly friendly aswell.

N. G.

This is the best cafe i have been to in Ireland, Chocolate Fudge is to die for apartment from oter delecacie slike hazelnut etc.

I. C.

Guiness hot chocolate ? Yes they have. This and much more! Cakes, Irish coffees, with different flavors.. really the place for sweet things! In the center the price is actually nice!

A. R.

The Sweetest Thing is a really nice Cafe on Batchelors Walk, just off O'Connell Street. This section of Dublins Quays has a growing collection of great Cafe's, The Bakehouse, The Potatoe Cake, Pog, Starbucks and The Sweetest thing. Eat inside or out, lovely selection of pastries and cakes. Personally I had a delicious croissant with ham and cheese done the right way. Friendly, efficient, staff, with delicious coffee. This is worth a visit, with one of the nicest signs around it looks pretty too.

C. M.

A must try hot chocolate!

D. K.

Good selection of tarts and cakes, most of them are served with ice cream. Hot chocolate is really good.

S. H. V.

Really the sweetest thing in Dublin! Cozy cafe with delicious cakes! Definitely will visit again if I am in Dublin

Very nice coffee and hot chocolate! The staff is very friendly too!

A. R.

They do a good hot chocolate here! Don't order "The Sweetest Thing" on the menu. It's too dang sweet! Their coffee is Good, as are their other regular hot chocolates. There are also cakes and scones available.

Lovely little place Cakes are amazing 5,50€ for cakes And between 4/5 for milkshakes & hot chocolats

K. W. K.

Best banoffee I had in the entire city. May have had it for breakfast once because I couldn’t resist! In addition, the coffee was well made and presented, as well as delicious. Pastries looked drool-worthy in the picturesque glass vases. The location is right by many bus stops and has a gorgeous view of the river. I will make it a point to come here on my next trip to Ireland!

R. D.

I just stumbled upon this tiny space after getting off the bus. I had a cup of coffee and a blueberry cupcake. Honestly the cupcake was phenomenal. So rich and tasty and tastes so real. The ambience is neat and tiny and has an old school charm to it. Great space.

R. P.

Jump in today for tea take away. Have to say staff is such a nice and lovely there. Two blond girls very polite and nice. Highly recommend this place.

L. Ó.

Best hot chocolates I've ever tried (Reese's and oreo). Really nice staff. Also the affogato (ice cream and a hot espresso poured over it) was delicious.

S. K.

Such a cute coffee shop with really nice and friendly staff! If you like hot chocolate, this is the place to go, they have so many different tastes, that makes you want to try all of them! I can really recommend going there.

A. T.

I pass by this little café on the bus every morning. "best hot chocolate in Dublin" they claim. And so I was expecting something rather special. Sadly it was not. The hot chocolate here is nice, and there are a few options available such as orange chocolate but while the variety of hot chocolates is a novelty they are ok. I was expecting something rich and unique but this was just hot chocolate with milk like any other coffee shop. Not that it was unpleasant mind you, just not really special enough to warrant the "best hot chocolate in Dublin" moniker. On the plus side the barristas are all very welcoming and friendly.

M. E.

Gorgeous little chocolate pitstop when just off the bus. 12 of us popped in on a day out in Town and we had a lovely experience. The staff were amazing. We will definitely go back.

B. O.

First time being in Dublin. Was best white hot chocolate I've ever had and the ladies were soo kind. I got lost but the two ladies working there kindly helped me find my way to my bus home. I will never forget the kindness they showed me. Thank you soo much I don't know where i'd be if I hadn't went to this cafe.

S. H.

(Translated) A small but cute place with delicious desserts and coffee/tea. I tried their Chocolate Fudge and liked it. Staff were friendly and service was fast. It is also in an easily accessible location. You can come back again and again and try their desserts. (Original) Küçük ama sevimli, lezzetli tatlıları ve kahve/çayları olan bir mekan. Çikolatalı Fudge'larını denedim ve beğendim. Çalışanlar güleryüzlü ve servisi hızlıydı. Lokasyon olarak da kolay ulaşılabilen bir yerde. Tekrar tekrar gelinip tatlıları denenebilir.

(Translated) Small café in Dublin, few seats - No menus at the seats, we got them at the cash desk - An employee probably had some problems, which was made clear by a loud phone call and conversation with a gentleman - Otherwise the stay was pleasant - it many guests come, most of them order to go. (Original) Kleines Café in Dublin, wenige Sitzplätze- Keine Speisekarten an den Plätzen, diese haben wir uns an der Kasse geholt - Eine Mitarbeiterin hatte wohl einige Probleme, was durch ein Lautstarkes Telefonat und Konversation zu einem Herren deutlich wurde - Ansonsten war der Aufenthalt angenehm - es kommen viele Gäste, die meisten bestellen to go.
