Addiction

Addiction is a dessert-and-shake bar on Silver Street, working a specialist board rather than the all-things-to-all-people menu most of the surrounding takeaways run. The counter centres on freshly handmade Italian gelato, Belgian-style waffles loaded with Nutella or biscoff, French crepes, American milkshakes and fruit smoothies, with white-chocolate crepes and the Nutella waffles the items reviewers most often return to in feedback.

The shop trades into the late evening to catch the after-cinema and post-bar dessert crowd Doncaster's town centre supports, and the Silver Street position keeps it on the main pedestrian walking route between the Frenchgate Centre and the Hallgate venues. Online ordering runs through Foodhub, Uber Eats and Just Eat alongside walk-in trade, and a second branch has opened in Sheffield carrying the same format. Aggregated review scores sit well above the Doncaster takeaway average — a reflection of the niche the dessert bar fills on a street otherwise dominated by kebab and pizza shops.
