café info
The Cake Café is an exciting bakery and café in the Daintree building, which stretches from Camden Street to Pleasants Place.
Its leafy courtyard is an oasis of calm in this busy area of the city. It is the perfect place to relax with a savoury tart and a glass of wine selected from The Cake Café’s carefully chosen wine list.
Monday 8.30am - 6pm (Baking or cookery evening after 6pm)
Tuesday - Friday 8.30am - 8pm
Saturday 9am - 5.30pm
Why not drop by on your way home from work for a glass of Prosecco in the courtyard or for a sneaky cupcake or two?
Call us during the week with your Saturday cake orders and we will have that sugar dusted sponge or the cute little cup cakes boxed up and ready for you to take away.
“If Marie Antoinette had been allowed a fresh start under a Revolutionary Fas scheme, she would have set up a place like the Cake Cafe with its flower print tablecloths and dainty higgledy-piggledy crockery.”
Ross Golden Bannon, Sunday Business Post, December 10 2006.
At Cake Café we take great pride in preparing our coffees. Our beans are ethically sourced and fully traceable. The coffee is imported and roasted by Michael from Ariosa, he blends his coffee every week and delivers to us the next day so it is always full of flavour. There is a double shot of espresso in almost all of our coffees.
The Cake Café is run in a very environmentally aware manner using bio degradable cleaning products and plastic bags, recycled napkins and recycling every thing we possibly can. We are located within the Daintree building which has been built in a sustainable manner. Our toilets are flushed with collected rainwater and the underground heating is powered by solar panels on the roof.
The Cake Cafe is featured in the December 2008 issue of VOGUE
We are also featured in The Bridgestone Guide, The Georgina Campbell Guide and Dubliner's 100 best restaurants.
We won most innovative restaurant in The Food and Wine Awards.
