This place, for my family, all started when a local pub stocked it for their puds, we already knew…read moreit was good when we discovered it was literally just down the road from one of my highschool friends. We'd ride our bikes here, using the ice creams as treats and calorie deficits, or come here to see the alpacas and come for lunch. The place is a little farm, caravan park, campsite, with rabbits, cattle, poultry, alpacas, goats you can feed, sheep, allsorts, and a little chalet where you can have your lunch, or buy farm shop type goodies. Lunch is pretty basic, a few choices of soups, sandwiches, salads, and the beauties that are Staffordshire oatcakes. But hell, I know that's not what you're after. You guys want the icecream don't you? Well, it's awesome, get yourself a big fat banana split, a sundae, cones, tube, to eat in, or you can purchase little cinema style single serving tubs, or treat yourself to varying litres, yes, litres. I'm personally always a fan of a banana split, as I can pretend I'm not being completely awful to my waistline, and you get to pick three flavours. My current absolute favourite is the Jaffa cake icecream, I described it to my other half, and he said its description was more unnecessarily arousing than the old marks and Spencer's ads. This isn't just any icecream, this is: tiramisu, Turkish delight, vanilla, blackcurrant, tutti fruity, bubblegum, chocolate, blackcurrant and licorice, ginger and lime, cappuccino, strawberry, dulce de leche, banana, banoffee, mint n choc, cherry, honeycomb, and so so much more thick, creamy, jersey cow deliciousness. Ps; there's also an owl sanctuary...

This farm shop sells THE BEST ice cream I have ever had in my life!!! I would happily live in the…read moretea room and fill myself full of ice cream til I can no longer fit out of the door! There are loads of flavors, my favourites so far are raspberry swirl, humbug and honeycomb - yum yum yum! It's really cheap considering it is home made ice cream. You can buy it by the cone or in various sized tubs. Obviously the bigger tub you buy, the cheaper it works out per litre ( by the biggest!! He he ). There is a lovely field outside with picnic benches, perfect to drive, cycle or walk to. If coming from Stafford it is possible to get there on a cycle path, google it.

Oh, Lordy. The…read moretraffic was awful, and I'd spotted this place on the way to work, so it was just too tempting on a hot day on the way home. It's adorable- all big trees and cobbles, and the most enormous goat I've ever seen in my life. Everything was planted up pretty, and little old guys scooting up on their mopeds for a scoop. I'm 99% sure this is the best ice cream in the land. You can choose from so many flavours, I had fanuttytastic and carrot cake, the latter was particularly exceptional, but I was also tempted by the white mountain, the banana, the Turkish delight, the sloe and damson gin, the elderflower and rhubarb and the maple and walnut- so I'll just have to come back, won't I?

ERMAHGERD this ice cream is amazing!…read more Seriously, Snugbury's is a one of a kind place. A small little farm-style set up with an onsite creamery and a shop selling no less than fourty, YES - FOUR-ZERO - flavours of ice cream and frozen yogurt. Once you've made your decision you can plonk yourself on the numerous benches or prostrate on the garden lawn (if you overdo it on the cream) and there is also a short country walk if you'd prefer to burn off some of your sugar intake. Every flavour is churned on site and given a suitably cheeky name (think B&J pre-Unilever). They also have seasonal limited editions like Summer Pimms and have previously partnered with a local Cheshire bakery for an apple pie ensemble (with whole apple pie churned into it!). In the interest of research (and gluttony) I opted for the double scoop, one of 'Driving me Cherries', a rich chocolatey flavour packed full of juicy fresh black cherries, topped off with the creamiest coconut ice cream I have ever tasted. Most importantly they give good cone - if you're a selling me an ice cream in a wafer cone, then frankly you can shove your wafer where the sun don't shine! I want a cone of equal calorific value to its contents and Snugberry's deliver with their crisp and sugary waffle cones. A right proper handful. Tactical ice cream tip: the servers are real pro's with their scoopage, filling the cone completely. So if you are going to get a double scoop ask for your favourite flavour first to get the most of it. Am I over thinking this? Possibly. Do I care? Not a chance.

As much as I like to take my time in selecting my choice in gelato, the young ladies in front of me…read morejust couldn't decide and the gentleman behind the counter could sense that I was ready. He excused himself and took my order and quickly returned to attend to the two young ladies. The gelato was excellent and very satisfying to end the evening. I would definitely go back to try some of their other flavors if ever in the area. Enjoy

Some good pals of mine suggested we all take a trip to sample some of the finest gelato Leicester…read morehas to offer, and this place lived up to the hype. Like with most gelato shops, you can sample all the wonderful flavours before you choose what you want to buy, but I'd recommend the cherry, peanut and chocolate. All in one tub. Amazing. The service was cheery, and the prices are reasonable, and I'm looking forward to my next visit!

The honey and ginger was particularly good but there are loads of great flavours including things like Turkish delight and liquorice. Has kind of ruined most other ice cream for me.

Just as I thought that I was about to enter some Willy Wonka-esque trip down a childhood road of dreams I discovered this was really only a card shop opposite Asda. For all their signs offering Frederick's ice cream - who? - it was still only a stationery shop with a fridge and a few tubs of ice cream. People need to think on before getting sensitive chubsters like myself so geared up for treats.

How refreshing to see a place which makes its' own ice cream rather than selling brand ice creams…read morestraight out of a freezer. A place like this is a nice change within the consumer scene of Liverpool, somewhere independent small and still managing to retain its' innocence. They do all the classic flavours aswell as some special one such as my favourite which is bubble gum an interesting fusion of flavours which shouldnt work but doesnt. The service here is excellent the staff care, which makes a fantastic change to the norm and in general here you are given a wonderful experience. Small and well run and fun for kids and grown up this place can tempt me at any time of year and the prices wont hurt your pocket either. It is such a delight to see a place like this which is open all year round and sticks two fingers up to the british weather and offers you a summery treat not matter what the season. Overall this place has got it spot on !

Then imagine you can have that flavour explosion handed to you in a cup. That's Shakeout. I have never tasted a milkshake from Shakeout that was anything less than delicious.
