It's ice-cream season for everyone.
Ice-cream szn is here (sort of) but it can be a tricky one to navigate for vegans, or people who can't have dairy. As someone with many dairy-free or vegan pals, I know how hard it can be to find a spot that does vegan ice-cream in Dublin.
As such I made it my mission to find spots that did just that, so everyone can enjoy an ice-cream over the warmer months.
6. Arctic Stone
Location: Blackrock
If your ice-cream tastes are a little fancy, you can get it served rolled at Arctic Stone based in Blackrock Market.
Only open Friday through to Sunday, Arctic Stone is the perfect place for a dairy-free ice-cream and seaside stroll.
5. Teddy's Ice-cream
Location: Dún Laoghaire
It's a rite of passage to enjoy a Teddy's ice-cream at least once (and ideally up to 10 times) over the warmer months, and for those who are vegan, luckily that rite can also be enjoyed by you.
They've improved their vegan 99 recipe, that doesn't skip on flavour or creaminess, despite the lack of dairy.

4. Leamhain
Location: St. Stephen's Green Shopping Centre
Leamhain, a vegan ice-cream sandwich spot, opened just in time for summer last year. It's based in the Stephen's Green shopping centre food court and they serve dairy-free sarnies and scoops, with their recipe being gluten and nut free too.
3. Flip
Location: George's Arcade
Not only are they the champions of plant based burgers, Flip also does a vegan soft serve to have as dessert, or just as a snack if you happen to be in the city centre on a particularly warm day.

2. Cornucopia
Location: Wicklow Street
Cornucopia is one of the best vegan spots in Dublin, and they also now dabble in the elusive vegan soft serve ice-cream. Their menu is entirely plant based, a haven for those on a vegan diet.

1. The Nobó Treathouse
Location: Ranelagh
While you may recognise Nobó from their products sold in Supervalu and Dunnes, you can also now visit their standalone store in Ranelagh called
The Treathouse.
Here they serve their famous dairy free ice-cream by the scoop, along with their other delicious goodies that you'd never guess didn't contain dairy.
Well there you have it folks; tons of spots for vegan ice-cream in Dublin, so no matter you or your friends' dietary requirements, everyone can enjoy some ice-cream while the sun is shining.
