We opted for 4 small tubs which came to £16! The frozen yoghurt & sorbet come from self service machines with lots of tempting flavours available. I went for some lemonade sorbet & mojito sorbet (no rum though) but were really tasty. Then onto to toppings, my 16yr old assured me the little juice balls were really good and she was right, especially the apple ones. There were plenty of options available including fresh fruit, nuts, chocolate and an assortment of sweets. Kids certainly enjoyed Spoon Street as a treat but it won't be a regular thing as I found it to be a tad expensive

Only downside to this Mauds is that there is no public toilet or at least there wasn't last time I visited and children have been refused the use of staff toilets. Being an ice cream shop at a park and a popular attraction for kids I think this is really important. Paying customers who have to leave due to toddlers wetting themselves is never a good thing.

Most famous of all is the inimitable Poor Bear's Delight (or Pooh Bear, as everyone calls it!) has been something I've got here as a treat since I was a small child, and continue to do so today. They have a large range of delicious locally produced ice-creams available, but this is always the one of choice for me. The shop also offers a range of handmade chocolates that you can but in a pack, or make up your own bespoke package to give to someone as a gift. There is also a coffee shop where you can enjoy a range of teas, coffees, biscuits and other sweets, if ice-cream is not really your thing.

I've just discovered this place on the Stranmillis Road in Belfast (they also have a shop in the…read morefoodcourt in Castlecourt). My friends told me about it and I feel compelled to share the good news! So as the name suggests, it is a milkshake bar... and they also serve the odd cupcake. You can take out, or there are a few seats for sitting in. The decor is 50's diner style, bright pastel colours and really fun. But the main draw is the amazing milkshakes. They serve every kind you can imagine, blended up with good quality icecream and milk (none of that horrible flavouring added to milk lark). The menu is vast, so to take the pressure off deciding, they have a selection of house specials like the Elvis (peanut butter, chocolate and banana anyone?!) Or you can just opt for your favourite chocolate bar, blended up with icecream, which is what I did. I chose the Boost... it was delicious. Straight after I had finished, I wanted another one. I must warn you that once you have visited Got Milkshake? you will quickly become addicted! Ok, so the idea may be a bit gimmicky and I'm not sure how long their idea will remain unique, but the milkshakes are truely delicious and the price is pretty reasonable too - £2.60 for a regular, £3 for a large. The setting is great, right in the heart of Stranmillis village so a handy pittstop after a day of sunbathing in Botanic Gardens, or as a nice end to a meal. Like most good things in life, the milkshake bar is probably best in moderation. But great for a treat, a fun date, or the ultimate hangover cure. Enjoy!

Right, so the first thing I need to confess is that I don't actually like milkshakes, which makes…read moreit hard for me to review this place. However. It also sells cupcakes, and I am very well versed in the art of cupcakes! The cupcake I got the other day had ball bearings on it, which I love (I mean, it's edible metal!) Got Milkshake is quite a cute little cafe, with a 1950s vibe about it. It's really small though, so there are only a few tables in it. I couldn't really imagine sitting there for ages, so for me, it's more a get it and go place. The milkshakes themselves were popular with my friends though, and with so many ingredients on offer, you can have all kinds of weird and wonderful combinations (Wham bar milkshake anyone?)

Please keep in mind that I was on a work trip in 2019 and over the weekend, I just hopped over to the Isle of Man. So I can say that the ice cream was good and the portions were just right. The view and ambiance were great as I sat by the window and could look out to see Peel Castle. I would definitely return here, if I was ever in the area again. Enjoy!!

Deliciousness in a tub!…read more This family-owned ice cream parlour is a firm favourite amongst the locals on the Island. Made with cows milk, double cream, butter and sugar it might bump me up the list for coronary bypass surgery, but in the meantime I'm going to enjoy the creamy tastiness of this ice cream. There are many flavours available, I went for the mango and raspberry on this occasion. Fruity but maybe slightly artificial tasting. As well as the standard ice cream they do sundaes, sandwiches, salads and other light lunches, hot and cold drinks and sweets and gifts to take away. There are a few tables to allow you to eat in, a necessity in November. However, in the summer it's ideally placed on the seafront for you to buy your cone to go take a stroll along the prom, with great views of Peel Castle and the beach. A great Isle of Man institution, a firm favourite with locals and tourists alike.

Eventually it opened and became a welcome addition to the city centre. I worked my way around the flavours, generally only taking two of them or even just one. Of all the toppings, I only tend to go for blueberries (and occasionally, kiwi) and nuts. Actually, I don't really want a lot of the froyo because I'm as prone to headaches as I am with ice cream. No, I just want a little froyo as a topping for the blueberries and nuts. Now somebody mentioned spillage. Well, after a little experimentation, I soon realized that the thing to do is to put as much of the nuts and blueberries into the tub first and then literally squirt the froyo as a topping. If only the nut spillers referred to in the other review would do the same, there wouldn't be such a cross contamination risk as the froyo on top just sits there, unless of course you have too much for the size of the tub. I didn't do it today, though, as it doesn't make a very good photo that way.

I really enjoyed visiting Spoon Street frozen yogurt bar on the Upper Newtownards Road, so was…read moredelighted when a branch opened in Belfast city centre's Ann Street. I visited last week and thoroughly enjoyed it, trying the dairy free lemon (quite tarte) and watermelon (sweet tasting) options which the staff told me were dairy free because they are fruit based sorbets. These sorbets have a richer, creamier consistency than traditional sorbet, being more like whipped ice cream. All the usual toppings are available ranging from healthy fruits to sweets and chocolates. I did notice there seemed to be fewer flavour options in the city centre location than at Newtownards Road. Perhaps more seating space and less dispensing machines. I will definitely return, but as it's now October, it may be the summer months before I visit this or any other frozen yogurt bar again. The novelty of frozen yogurt is beginning to wear off a bit for me. Also who wants to eat such cold food during icy winter months?! Fabulous when summer sun is shining, but possibly not an all year round activity. Maybe they should diversify into mulled wine over winter time...

Anytime that we have been in Bloomfield Shopping Centre, she has always wanted to get an ice cream from this tiny wee concession and the odd time I have put my hand in my pocket to get her one. What you can pick up here is pretty standard. You can get ice creams of all flavours from chocolate to strawberry to vanilla to the rather bizarre bubblegum flavour. You can get them in all sizes and with a wide range of toppings, basically everything and anything you would expect to personalise your own wee ice cream. The prices are pretty standard and the staff are young, but pretty friendly and they do a good job of masking what must be a rubbish wee summer job. This place probably makes a mint thanks to the pester factor of wee kids wanting ice cream whilst their parents are shopping. Its in Bloomfield's so its easy to get to, there are plenty of other shops around as well as good parking.
