We stopped off here during our time in John O?Groats and I would like to start off by saying the staff are lovely! Very friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and patient - the family in front of us bought a variety of products ALL with modifications and they came out perfectly! So great kudos to the wonderful servers for that.
Our order came out perfectly but INCREDIBLY SMALL PORTIONS! I understand about the cost of living crisis, Scotland offering a higher than average living wage, the economy of transporting items that far north, rent and utilities, rubbish collection and everything else that goes into running a business but the portions were tiny! The smallest I?ve ever seen from such an establishment. My son had a Mr Whippy, my husband a raspberry ripple in a waffle cone and I had a vegan vanilla in cake cone and mine was the most expensive!!!! It was lovely seeing vegan ice cream offered but the price point is high even taking into account it?s a ?niche? item.
Thank you for having vegan options and I know my review won?t alter your practice. I genuinely do wish your business well and this review is not intended to offend ?
*Edit* I appreciate the owner reaching out to address my minor complaint; I messaged explaining it wouldn't feel right accepting a refund as we consumed the ice creams. I've also added another star - unbidden - to reflect the attempt at rectifying the matter. Many thanks for doing so and I wish you a wonderful rest of the year.

If you love ice cream visit this place if you fancy. I would highly recommend it after taking a long walk along the coast.
Kid-friendliness: Kids can top up their own flavour syrup in their icecream and if they struggle to choose an icecream they may get an icecream to taste.

Had an ice cream sundae and waffle cone here - both were incredible. Amazing selection of flavours, and helpful staff when you can?t decide what to have!

I bought a soft-serve ice cream, but there was a clearly inexperienced employee who had obviously not had enough practice. We ordered 3 large soft-serve ice creams, of which the 3 cones were only 60% filled which was very disappointing for the high price we paid and the advertising shown on Google and the store. In conclusion, give your employees enough practice before you give your customers disappointing products.

The quality matches the price. Very nice service.

Love the ice cream here,
So many flavours to choose from also cones tubs sundae sprinkles or sauce.
Selection of dairy free also available. If you prefer Mr whippy they have that too.
They had other snacks there also.

Visited John O?Groats on a very rainy day but found this shop which brightened the mood. Lovely Orkney ice cream and had a gluten free cone for our coeliac. Friendly service and a nice chocolate muffin for our non-coeliacs. Nice coffee too. Recommended.
Dietary restrictions: Good gluten free ice creams

Loved this place. I was able to get a gluten free cone and the server changed gloves to serve me which was great. The ice cream was delicious too.

This place is the highlight of John O' Groats! Even on a cold, grey, drizzly day it is worth venturing in to sample some of their flavours. We did so and loved it.
