The Dreamery

Tucked away on Halliford Street in De Beauvoir, The Dreamery brings a splash of Parisian flair to this quiet pocket of North London. Part ice cream parlour, part wine bar, this psychedelic little spot from the team behind nearby Goodbye Horses feels refreshingly different from your typical neighborhood hangout. The vibe here is playful and unapologetically fun—a place where you can embrace the joy of dessert without taking yourself too seriously.

The ice cream selection rotates regularly, so there’s always something new to discover. The gingerbread and butterscotch combination has earned its reputation as a crowd favorite, delivering that perfect balance of warm spice and sweet indulgence. The coffee ice cream deserves special attention too—it’s rich, smooth, and the kind of scoop that coffee lovers will find themselves craving long after the last bite. Each serving arrives in elegant silver coupes, adding a touch of old-world glamour to the experience.

What sets The Dreamery apart is how seamlessly it blends two seemingly different worlds. You can pair your scoops with a glass of pét-nat or explore their thoughtful wine selection while perched at the counter. It’s an ideal spot for those evenings when you want something more than a pub but less formal than a proper dinner out—perfect for a light bite and great wine in equal measure.

Whether you’re treating yourself after a long day or looking for a unique date spot, The Dreamery delivers an experience that feels distinctly joyful. Grab a counter seat if you can, order something sweet, and let yourself get swept up in the whimsy of it all.
