Since it opened in 1950, Teddy’s has answered when Dubliners scream for soft serve. It may look like a tiny shop, but it’s an institution. The team is so confident in their vanilla ice cream that it’s the only flavour on offer. The creamy consistency is best enjoyed with a Flake tucked inside, a la the classic 99 that made Teddy’s famous, but you can also add sprinkles, syrups, and Oreo topping. If the queue is too long (and there’s always a queue), keep your eyes peeled for Teddy’s Ice Cream vans along the Dun Laoghaire Pier and in front of the Pavilion Theatre.
Time Out tip: Bring cash. Teddy’s doesn’t accept credit cards.
