How cool, great ice cream on the canal towpath from a working barge. The freshly made doughnuts are a favourite of mine, especially with a coffee. I stop off regularly when they are open and I pass by whilst walking the towpath. On a warm day I love to choose from the several varieties of Ice cream but tend to pick banana or strawberry, yummy! Best of all these are nice people who care about what it is they do.
The kids love it. The ice cream is a favourite.
Great staff, good pricing and good location, can't fault it!
Not open, but Google said it was!!
