Classic soft serve ice cream with a twist of South African brilliance. In addition to their awesome flavors of ice cream, their doughnuts are quite phenomenal. We tried their kit-kat, crunchie, Nutella filled and plain doughnuts. Each were quite different than expected and definitely better than some of the more well known brand name doughnuts around town. Definitely worth the visit when in Cape Town!Updated, October 2021: a 2nd visit to the store and it was fabulous once more. This will be a standard visit in CT!
Nice place to get soft serve on a hot day. The ice cream itself is ok, it’s the dip on the ice cream that is good! They have doughnuts, but they aren’t the most amazing. Surprisingly the doughnut ice cream sandwich (soft serve between 2 cinnamon doughnuts with a chocolate glaze) was actually really good and very well priced. Definitely just get that!
I wasnt sure of this place but I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious their doughnuts and ice cream cones are. The Rainbow Ice Cream is a winner amongst kids. Dont leave without getting a bite of the Nutella pop doughnuts. Id have rated the place 5 stars if not for the long wait to get served. Only one dude was working there. He had his hands full with walk in customers plus online orders
Interesting toppings on delicious ice cream. Definitely recommended! Yum 😋😋
Quaint little shop that packs alot of power when it comes to delicious ice cream, donuts and milkshakes. Love this spot, even though it has a little seating, the location demands that you rather take your goodies and enjoy the stunning mountains views while browsing the area or making your way to the promenade.
The doughnuts were great. I had the cinnamon sugar and the chocolate doughnuts. They were light and tasty and not over sweet. I tried the ice cream as well which was good. Will definitely visit again!
Great place. Good service. Great ice-cream and doughnuts.
For some really good ice cream, this is a good stop.
Classic soft serve to soft serve on steroids, they never disappoint.
Oreo cone. Oreo cone. Oreo cone.If you are looking for a place to give a middle finger to your lacrosse intolerance - this is it.Im tempted to leave the review at that but seriously, what ever milky sugar swirl you decide to purchase, put it in their Oreo sugar cone and you will be a happier human.Dairy den reminds me of what milky lane should be - a good place to get some sweet ice cream and take a walk around the neighborhood. The store itself is sandwiched between Jerrys burger bar and a pizzeria on Seapoint Main road.The store is small so you need to pick your treats and go.They have a selection of tempting milkshakes as well as donuts which is great if you are into that kinda thing. They (donuts) looked a bit sad when we arrived at 10PM so perhaps only do that early in the day. Its quite cool that they open late as well.Hope the store grows and brings some competition to the creamery empire.
So amazing. And if you worried about prices, dont worry, they are soooooooooo affordable. And the best part is that its worth it and the people working there are so friendly and help you make the perfect choice. The ice cream is so delicious!!!!!!!! Definitely going back there again very soon. The ice cream doesnt cost more than R30. I went there with 100 rand, and i bought for 2 adults and one kid, and it only cost 66 Rand, which was so shocking as the quality is so great. Sooooooo worth it.
Great donuts and incomparable to the big brand offerings like Krispy and Dunkin’. I haven’t tried anything else. Kids love them too.
This little shop is so underrated and their quality for donuts and soft serve is amazing :)
Belgian chocolate at its best😍
Fun place to visit and really delicious ice cream and dounts!!
The Dairy Den was actually really good. Great staff. Everyone with me that day enjoyed everything and there were no complaints. The space for ordering and waiting for orders is tight. So do make sure to wear your mask and be a bit more vigilant.
The Ice cream was lovely, the prices are decent! Couldnt ask for more!
Staff are super efficient and friendly. Best donuts and ice-cream ever. Love this place
Love dairy den! Lots of options and quality ice cream
Nice ice cream. Belgian dark chocolate dip is different. Nice change to have soft-serve style ice cream with extras, rather than the usual options of Gelato or plain soft-serve.
The cutest soft serve and donuts shop!The donuts are absolutely delicious and super fresh!We also enjoyed the soft serves with the black cones. My favourite was the peppermint crisp.The prices are reasonable and nothing over the top and wont break the bank. I would definitely recommend visiting with your kids when you are in the area.
Great ice cream and donuts!
I would have dairy den ice cream all day long!
Such a unique and cute place. Loved the colours and atmosphere
Ice cream is amazing. Although they do run out of options on busy days, the offer alternatives.
Some customers didnt wear mask ... was upsetting. But ice cream delicious
Amaaaaaa zing ice cream, donuts werent so great tho
BEST. ICECREAM. EVER!
Best soft serve ice cream in sea point. Variety of different flavours and prices are reasonable.
Go for the Donut Sandwich... you wont be disappointed.Service and staff is also excellent.
Friendly service. Great products at reasonable prices.
What a find! Was a very hot day in Cape Town today and whilst walking along Main Road in Seapoint we passed The Dairy Den. We were immediately drawn in by the cool decor and photos of their delicious ice-creams and donuts. The ice-creams we ordered looked just as amazing as the photos, and tasted great! Well definitely be back during the next hot Cape Town beach day :-)
Love the ice creams. Different then the normal soft serve.
Wide variety and something different to other ice cream parlours
Amazing service, both friendly and efficient... And 100% delicious
The breakfast was excellent, staff very friendly. I really recommend this place see you soon.
Love it. Had a strawberry milkshake there recently and it was very good😋
Our go to ice-cream place
Love the glazed donuts
Great little gem.
The service was good and fast. Had the mint dragon and the unicorn mint flavour. The cookie cone was very good. Unfortunately, the ice-cream was not good at all. It had a very strange after taste and the unicorn ice-cream tasted like medicine and the mint dragon one tasted like cheap chocolate was used. Will not go back again.
Amazing ice cream and donuts. Friendly service. Delicious and definitely worth a visit!
Enjoyed the ice-cream, friendly service, neat and clean environment.
Very nice ..the assistant how help me was very friendly.
Best doughnuts ever. Must try
This place is okay. Has good donuts and milkshakes are alright but, one time i went and i got a milkshake and was considering to get a donut but there were bees inside the counter where the donuts were being displayed. Worth a shot but look out.
Not too bad , but i expected a bigger helping of ice cream. Ive been to better places
Kids simply love their ice cream. Best chocolate ice cream ever and the dark wafer cone is perfect.
Amazing service and friendly staff. The suggested the best flavors and even upsold to us. This place is reasonably priced and there are so many different flavors. Each flavor is a different experience. Very happy with The Dairy Den and I would go back. The location in Sea Point is great as well.
Best ice-cream ever
It was easy to find the employees were friendly the service was fast
Small place bt btfl and quickly service.
Cute ice cream parlor in Main Road, Sea Point. I had a Rocky Road cone - toppings were divine. Friends had donuts and cappuccino which were good. Space a bit small but 1-2 extra tables for seating would be helpful. Friendly staff, clean store.
Best soft serve ice cream in Cape Town. Their service is great.
The donuts are fresh and delicious. They have cool black cones and good ice cream. They also have lovely coffee milkshake which is worth the try. The employees are always super sweet.
Frontline
Amazing service and menu👌👌Ice cream is heavenly as well as their doughnuts
Wonderfully rich and creamy ice-cream with some novel additions.
Great choice and friendly service. My boys favourite ice-cream spot.
We always visit this ice cream parlour when in Sea Point. Love it!!!
Great ice cream variations. Their caramel is really unique and yummy! Great staff too you guys make it feel like home.
Good alternative since dunkin donuts have closed down.We have 4 gourmet donuts , a double thick chocolate milk shake and a waffle cone soft serve dipped in Belgium chocolate.The donuts were decent , the kit Kat was the best.The chocolate milkshake was amazing , tasty but not overloaded with sugar.The disappointment was the waffle cone , the cone itself tasted like burnt toast , the soft serve was satisfactory but the Belgium chocolate dipping was really good.I will go back.
Lovely doughnuts and crazy ice creams!
A place to be enjoyed the services and the Ice creams
Good ice cream, only problem is I asked for nuts on my ice cream but they gave me peanut brittle.
