Soda Affair

Aim: Help launch Northern Ireland’s first dirty soda shop! Fun, fizzy, flavour-packed drinks & a bold new hangout. Join the Soda Affair

Hi, I’m Rachel, founder of Soda Affair — Northern Ireland’s first dedicated dirty soda shop.

As someone with a background in hospitality and a love for design, food, and flavour, I’ve always had an eye (and tastebuds!) for what makes an experience feel special. When I saw the dirty soda trend take off abroad, I knew there was a gap in the market here at home — and I felt inspired to bring something new and exciting to the local scene.

Soda Affair is more than just a drinks shop. It’s a vibrant, playful space where people can gather, try something unexpected, and enjoy a non-alcoholic treat that’s just as indulgent as a cocktail or a dessert. It’s for foodies, trend-chasers, and anyone looking for a little fizz in their day.

This project combines all my passions — creativity, community, and hospitality — and I can’t wait to share it with you.

After years of watching the dirty soda trend explode across the US, I knew it was time to bring something new, exciting, and non-alcoholic to Northern Ireland. I’m passionate about flavour, community, and giving people a place to enjoy something special — whether it’s a treat with friends, a TikTok-worthy moment, or just a soda that hits different.

With your support, I’m turning this idea into a fizzy reality. Let’s shake up the local drinks scene — one dirty soda at a time.
