"I definitely think this is the BEST ice cream in northern ireland. The vanilla is so authentic to Italian ice cream of the 1950'S and 1960's. It makes me so nostalgic for my childhood having days out when we lived in the south of England and going to seaside resorts on the south coast."

"This is an Ice Cream Parlour effectively (no sit in ) so atmosphere and food experiences don't really apply. However, the Ice Cream is genuinely delicious and with large portions to boot ! Highly recommended."

"Amazing ice cream. I have been going here for at least 20 yrs! Their traditional vanilla ice cream is beautiful - it's a milky, icey, slightly soft type. They also now do a range of flavours including vegan ice creams. Their ferraro rocher and raspberry are particularly good. They also make a gorgeous salted caramel sauce."
