Laduree Dublin

Over pretensive, nice décor but nothing that special about the place or staff that warrants € 6 for peppermint tea. Get a grip this is wicklow street Dublin not Paris!

I just love Laduree macaroons, especially the rose petal, YUM! They had an offer running; that with every coffee you got a free macaroon. I think that offer runs for May so get in there asap.
I would love to return to try the afternoon tea it looks amazing.

Laduree is a very cute and chic little café, and I’d passed by so many times but today I took the opportunity to have a coffee and try one of their macarons! An Americano takeaway with one free macaroon was € 3, although € 2.60 was written on the menu so I’m guessing that’s the price for sit-​in maybe. The coffee was average, not really as good as I’d expected but the macaron (I got coffee flavour) was amazing! The shop inside is very cute and feels very French with all the delicate sweet décor, quaint tea sets and chic furnishing. The service was ok and the food menu was pretty limited, but it does seem like a nice place to go for afternoon tea. They also sell some really cute key chains which I was tempted to buy if it weren’t for the price, but they would make lovely gifts.

Laduree is exceptional, chic and very Parisian. I was excited when I heard they will open Laduree café in Dublin, where you can sit and order unlike the one in Brown Thomas, However, I must say I was a bit disappointed. It still is a fantastic place for having an afternoon tea or coffee with their delicious macarons, but, that is all what they have. I was expecting more desserts and even food, but no they don’t serve that. So if you haven’t been to laduree before especially in Paris, then i don’t think it will matter, you will enjoy it for sure, but, if you are someone who has tried every thing on their menu like me then it won’t be more than a Laduree-​ish experience to you. Another thing that i have noticed, their macaron was a bit dry comparing to what i usually have before but they were still delicious.

I stopped at Ladurée with my mom and sister on our recent visit to Dublin. We are huge fans of the Ladurée shops in New York so we were excited to dodge the rain and enjoy some macaroons.
The shop is quaint and a great place to enjoy some dessert and a cup of tea. We tried the rose petal, lemon & orange blossom macaroons. They were all great, but the rose petal was by far our favorite.

Currently all they’re really survey is coffee/​tea and macarons. I wish they’d have a bit more café choices like the store in London. I could see this place becoming a hit for brunch/​tea if they chose to go that route. We need more afternoon high tea places around here.
The coffee is alright, nothing spectacular. The macarons are always nice (but always pricey as well).
There’s limited seating in the backroom (the heating is turned up way high though).

Having spent many hours of my life trying to make the perfect macaron I can now see it was a complete waste of time! Don’t bother making. Come here instead and try the many flavours on option. I opted for the salted caramel and it was everything I wanted. Sweet, salted, fantastic texture and just enough to make you feel satisfied without feeling you have put the biggest wedge of cake in your mouth! I paired this with the small hot choc. And yes this is small! but as it was a little too rich and sweet for my liking I couldnt have wanted anymore.

Although I was sad to see the previous business go, I was excited to see it turned into a Ladurée shop.
Coming from Paris, macarons were a delicious but rare treat of my childhood.
Macarons recently started being in fashion in Dublin but I found most to be terrible. Bland and exceedingly sweet. Only laduree gets it right!
So I brought my little daughter the other day, we had spent a few months in Paris recently and she’d been asking for macarons ever since.
Needless to say she loved the whole experience. She tried the apple and the fig/​date one, while sipping on milk, swaying in rhythm with Frank Sinatra and making funny faces with the staff.
I had the one called Marie Antoinette, black tea flavoured. It was divine. Coffee was great too.
If I had to add a critique, it would be that the selection is quite small, and mostly features weird and unusual combinations that didn’t appeal to me. But I still can’t wait to try them all.

They really have transformed the interior with oversized chairs and a real classic French feel.
The coffee was pretty good but served in a paper takeaway cup which I hate. The macaroons are 2euro each and very tasty indeed. I could happily munch my way through all of the flavours.
The hot chocolate was a bit watery and not smooth but it wasn’t what I had expected and again served in takeaway cup… staff were really friendly.

Came here on a chilly January day after a walk.
The staff were pretty pleasant but I ordered hot chocolate and an Americano. The Americano was placed on the counter but was left waiting for the hot chocolate so I stood there waiting. They were a bit surprised I was still standing at the till but the issue was rectified quickly. Just a small detail really I guess.
Delicious macarons and hot chocolate. The coffee is also pretty decent!
I love how it’s decorated! Beautiful transformation of this location. It’s pretty stunning in fairness and the seats are comfortable. I’d say it’s quite cosy when the fire in that part is lighting.
It was difficult to choose macarons but went with salted caramel and spiced fruit. Both were really tasty.
Will definitely be back (who knows? maybe next time it’ll be a five!)

Macarons are usually good
These ones are exceptional. The melt-​in-​your-​mouth, oh-​this-​is-​so-​good, what-​a-​wonderful-​filling kind of exceptional
And if you want to have such an experience where else better than at a very poshly (and pink) decorated place?

I love that there is an official spot in Dublin now — and one that does a great job of matching their Paris shop!
The macaroons are just as delicious and there are so many options. I will be sitting in soon to enjoy their café space and the people watching from their corner location.
I had an assortment of macaroons including salted caramel, pistachio, vanilla (really excellent despite the seemingly boring favor), black currant, and rose petal. They were all delicious as usual. These 6 packs make a great gift for acquaintances, or a bigger pack may be great for a celebration! It’s a sweet break from chocolate boxes!

Such a cute new addition to one my favourite streets in Dublin! Located at south William it’s such a lovely place to go and enjoy their famous macaroons the staff are friendly and the venue is to die for! Could literally stay here all day!

New Ladurée shop open on the corner of South William Street and Exchequer Street! It’s absolutely stunning and worth a visit as the décor is so beautiful, the staff are friendly and helpful and of course, the macarons are delicious!
There is a seated area in the back to the left of the counter with gorgeous purple velvet seats and lovely crisp clean white tables to sit and enjoy a coffee and some macarons.
I don’t really think this place can be faulted aside from their prices, which is fair enough. You feel like royalty in here and every last touch is done to perfection.
