London Ice-Cream Vans / The Best Ice-cream In London?

Ice-cream is one of my favourite foods and as I was born in Italy, I have savoured on the authentic fresh gelato. Here in London, where I now live, there are a range of ice-creams available but the fresh ice-creams are available on ice-cream vans that travel around London. In this article, I wanted to share if this ice-cream from the vans are really that great,

What are London Ice-cream Vans?

They are vans that travel around London and you can find them especially in summer. They don’t have an exact location but I believe, you can look out for them in summer and try some ice-cream.

What I Ordered And My Opinions On It:

One Classic Vanilla Ice-Cream Cone

The price ranges from van to van but my one cost £2.50. This was slightly pricey. It was executed nicely and the appearance was pretty classic and pretty nice. The taste was normal but it didn’t feel that fresh. I loved the flake and chocolate syrup on top and the cone itself was crunchy.

The Place:

Every van is usually quite colourful and you can’t enter the van usually.

The Service:

I have tried many vans and usually the shopkeepers are quite friendly, but on this particular occasion, the shopkeeper looked a bit rushed and not very friendly. However, she did make the ice-cream fast.

Would I Recommend It?

I would recommend only trying ice-cream from the vans if you are with a group of people on a hot summer day or if you are really craving an ice-cream. Otherwise, you can try something similar for cheaper from a local grocery store like Iceland.

My Rating: 3/5
