So, a few days ago we reported that thanks to satirical website The Ulster Fry (fellow food named website) and everyone’s favourite That Wee Cafe, all of our childhood dreams were coming true and we would be able to snack on crisp sandwiches for lunch in a civilised atmosphere (read: anywhere that’s not under a duvet in drafty student halls or in your mums house).

Simply Crispy
Well, it happened, spawning from a joke, but now a reality, Simply Crispy opened its doors yesterday at 8 Bedford Street, following in the footsteps of the Cereal Killer Cafe and other nostalgic eateries before it, and to put it politely – it smashed it. The world’s first crisp sandwich cafe was a hit, selling out within 2 hours of opening. The cafe offers 35 different crisp flavours and types (mainly Tayto) alongside a variety of breads, all served with soup and chips.
