I had the chocolate pecan tart here and it was excellent.  The chocolate wasn't too sweet and the tart itself was buttery and delicious.  Probably the best thing I ate while I was in Dublin.

Popped in to the PortHouse the other day while I was getting my phone fixed in FM Mobiles (Great Place also!!) and it was really good, albeit darker than a Hollister shop.

The service was quick (the place was packed) and the food was also impressive (I've been to the one in Dundrum before which is also decent)

Price wise it was also pretty good, and if you're looking for a quick,…Read more Popped in to the PortHouse the other day while I was getting my phone fixed in FM Mobiles (Great Place also!!) and it was really good, albeit darker than a Hollister shop.

The service was quick (the place was packed) and the food was also impressive (I've been to the one in Dundrum before which is also decent)

Price wise it was also pretty good, and if you're looking for a quick, reliable and unique place then this is a perfect fit.

Will happily return when the time arises!

Really cheap but pretty basic restaurant. But the food is excellent which is the main thing!

As an avid nail person who has had nearly every nail art and nail tip known to man, I was apprehensive coming in here. My last nail person was amazing at 3d art, but hacked the nails off me to try and unstick them (ouch) and the person before that was a technician who came to my house for three years but basically stopped giving a sh1te about the quality of her work. So I was forced to…Read more As an avid nail person who has had nearly every nail art and nail tip known to man, I was apprehensive coming in here. My last nail person was amazing at 3d art, but hacked the nails off me to try and unstick them (ouch) and the person before that was a technician who came to my house for three years but basically stopped giving a sh1te about the quality of her work. So I was forced to look elsewhere.....and I did. I read reviews, got price lists, checked Google images and eventually booked Tropical Popical....all the while I continued to look around. But no where did any exciting colours, so I decided to try T.P.
I decided to go with the 3 week manicure as I would have been disgusted if i got extensions and they were done badly, so I purposely chose something short and low maintenance.
The girl recommended going for a bright colour as I was going out that night, and it would contrast nicely with my black outfit. So I took her advice and went with fluro pink.
I noticed as she was chatting to me, she spent most of the time focused on my nails. She barely looked up and took a good while prepping the nail beds before applying the Gelish. This is a good thing!
While the shop itself is beautiful and original, I was way more interested in the quality of work. I hate uneven edges,or bubbles or watery looking results......there was none of that! Yay!
I loved/love (it's still on, and still chip free) the pink. It's gorgeous.
So I have rebooked for extensions in two weeks.....this will be the real test! If they are as good as my pink ones, I will be a customer for life. And as well, the prices are realistic. You are not going to be quoted €70 for a full set of French tips....(am still gobsmacked that some local salons to this one actually charge that!).
The only slight downfall is that for a place so colourful,adventurous and "on-trend", I'd have thought they would be doing 3d nail art but hey.....that might come in time.
All in all, if you know nails and know what you want, definitely try this place.

This experience has been the biggest let down. I like many others fell for the social living voucher trap of discounted laser treatment! When I arrived for my initial consultation I discussed the fact that I had a lot of pigmentation after living abroad for many years and of course they said all was ok and took my money! But after that I had endless trouble. Almost every time I went…Read more This experience has been the biggest let down. I like many others fell for the social living voucher trap of discounted laser treatment! When I arrived for my initial consultation I discussed the fact that I had a lot of pigmentation after living abroad for many years and of course they said all was ok and took my money! But after that I had endless trouble. Almost every time I went there I was told for one reason or another I could not have the service I paid for!! They hid behind rules they constantly changed. I feel soo coned I cried for they day on Wednesday after I left the salon once again after being fobbed off with some other excuse. The problem Is they have my money in the bank and they don't care! :(
