Stopped into this cafe on the recommendation of a friend. I ordered the tart of the day-goat cheese, butternut squash, carmelized onions and beets. I can't stop thinking about it! I will try to reproduce it when I get home, but I can't imagine that it will be close to the same ( because I am a horrid cook!) I... More

Wandering around Temple Bar and thanks to the Tripadvisor city guide we found the Queen of Tarts. An excellent lunch and the tarts are truly amazing and really good value too. Staff are really friendly and all in all probably one of the nicest places for a light lunch in Dublin.

If you want a proper pot of Irish Breakfast tea (along with a full Irish Breakfast) don't miss Queen of Tarts. They also serve some delicious scones, a incredible Victoria Sponge Cake and they make a delicious cup of coffee. We always went in the mornings so we didn't get to try their savory tarts (which were always baking and... More

We absolutely love this little tea shop! We enjoyed a nice lunch and tart in this cozy little restaurant. I was so please to find that they offered gluten free items and all of it tasted great! The staff was friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was charming! I would love to go back!

Made a return visit here recently. Good once again but a little expensive. Service was ok but it was early morning. Must try the sister café close by next time.

We have been here twice, for breakfast with scones and for a cappucino with lemon merengue tart and cheescake. Very good, not cheap, but we enjoyed it in this little shop with grandma´s furniture.

First impressions of this quaint little breakfast place. I Had the Hearty breakfast and my other, the salmon and scrambled eggs. They were both exquisite. Would definatly come back. The only thing in my opinion that soured the expeirience were the sticky tables and a dirty glass. The service was really bad she seemed more interested in socialising with the... More

We went here last weekend and found the cafe to be very nice. We did have to wait 10 minutes for a table and there is very little space inside so it can be a little crowded. The cakes were very good although a little expensive.

Nice place, nice people, good pies and tarts. A pity we discovered the bigger place only when leaving the small one.
