Kelly Lou Cakes in Portlaoise

We came in here to celebrate my sister's birthday on Monday, the girl that served us at the till seemed fine quite pleasant. We went and sat at the table which was filthy , most of the tables were. When we looked around to see if there were any staff three of them were standing behind the till chatting. 10 minutes passed and one lady brought down our drinks to which she seemed shocked that the table was still in a mess. No apology just tutting at the table like it was our fault. The girl that served us then brought over our soup and my son's french toast (which was kind of burnt) and then when we said we were still waiting on our cakes she replied with what cakes? We then had to tell her again. We always enjoy coming here but the service really is quite poor and it was not even that busy. The cakes are always quite nice and the soup was lovely.

Good place for coffee in portlaois .

Picked up a birthday cake so didn't eat in, but can confirm that the cake was incredible!

The cakes are fantastic but can be limited in the amount available. When they're gone, they're gone.

Kelly baked our wedding cake and cupcakes and she quite literally delivered in every sense of the word! The cake was beautifully decorated and tasted amazing and the cupcakes were just gorgeous! I would have no hesitation in recommending her skills for any occasion.

Kelly Lou made the cake for our destination wedding at Cloughjordan House in June 2024. She did an absolutely fantastic job with the design and the flavors were amazingly delicious! She made a divine three-tiered cake - two tiers of lemon and one of white chocolate raspberry - and it was a simple yet extraordinarily stunning design featuring fresh flowers from our florist. She came to the venue to set it up in the most beautiful way! We're a couple based in NYC so when we visited Ireland for the first time in September 2023 for planning reasons, we knew we wanted to do a cake tasting if we could, and Kelly Lou made it very easy for us by putting together a wonderful taster box that we picked up at her bakery on our route from a venue visit at Cloughjordan House in Co. Tipperary to Dublin. All the flavors were so tasty so it was hard to choose :) We highly recommend Kelly Lou! Thanks for making the wedding cake of our dreams and we can't wait to have some more on our one year anniversary!

Good service, and the lemon cupcakes are one of the best I've tried in the city. Highly recommended for a breakfast /brunch

Their brownies are to die for ❤️

Lovely place for a bite. Friendly, efficient staff and tasty, fresh food 😊 From outside, you'd think it is solely a cake shop, but the menu is lovely.

With the current situation, it was nice to get out and have a decent cup of coffee with friends again. Everything was put in place to keep customers and staff safe
