    Soft serve, served with an array of sugary toppings. What more could you ask for? This place is…read morepretty good. We came on a Sunday evening and it had a steady stream of folks. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I would have liked some fruit as a topping option. Wow. It's true though. It would have been nice if there was some tables inside. And also, the place seemed to have been ransacked, and could have done with a good deep cleaning (around the window especially) and maybe a new lick of paint. Regardless, the staff did well taking orders and getting folks what they wanted. The ice cream was good.

    I was really excited to come here. Like, I mean REALLY excited. Like realising Game of Thrones…read moreSeason 5 had just been leaked online excited. The queue was huge but from what I had heard about this place it was to be expected. But in fairness to the staff the queue moved pretty quick considering. I looked at the giant sundae type things they had on the wall. There was one which was called a Snicker Bocker Glory. It sounded incredible, indulgent and so wrong. I had to have it. I was with my cousin and her young daughter and I have to say the staff are pretty amazing. Super patient with everyone including the indecisive chislers. I got my Snicker Bocker Glory which had fresh whipped ice cream, Snickers ice cream, caramel sauce and bits of Snickers going through it. I have to say I was left pretty underwhelmed. I thought the plain whipped ice cream which seems to be their staple was pretty bland. The Snickers ice cream was again not what it should be. I think I had maybe 6 or 7 spoonfuls until I actually gave up. Maybe an off day for the ice cream makers? I dunno. But based on what I got I probably wont be back. The 3 would probably be a 2 if it weren't for the deadly staff, they really are great.

    Now I myself love local chippers as most are privately owned and a lot of hard work goes into their…read morefood to make people come back. The village chipper now I was very impressed with. Very clean very nice inside the ice creams and desserts well the pics will do the justice as looking at them made my sugar level rise lol. Being a diabetic myself I didn't go in for one but I was tempted. I decided on their truly delicious twisty fries. It's a local take away . And it really is a great looking place and great food. What let it down tho was that there was no menu up on the walls or inside u had to read the menus on the counter but apart from that defo bring the kids for an ice cream as the mauds ice cream looks amazing and the toppings are so varied.

    With limited places to choose from and needing something greasy to soak up the booze in my belly…read morefrom the night before, The Village caught my eye. As it was only 2:30 in the afternoon, I didn't expect a chipper to be that busy anyway but we were the only ones in there. I decided to go for the burger meal and my friend went for the burger deluxe or something along those lines. We waited 15 minutes for our food and when we got it, my burger was as thin as 3 pieces of paper stacked on top of each other with a tiny amount of ketchup on it. No joke! The fries were big wedge fries that weren't cooked through and were half cold in the middle. Of course neither one of us checked this out unit we left because we were eating on the road. Being hung over and desperate, I would have rather ate nothing than ate what I was served from there. Lesson: All chippers are not created equal. (Sigh)
