With this year’s summer shaping up to be a hot one, ice cream vendors the length and breadth of the country are hoping to scoop the profits. So here is a small selection of the best ice cream parlours in the UK.

Bliss Ice Cream Parlour, Cowes, I of W

You can’t get much farther south than the Isle of White, at least not while you remain in England. Manufacturing their own range of ice creams, sundaes, sorbets and confectionary, Bliss also offer milkshakes, smoothies, teas and a range of ground coffees. Pop in and enjoy a Belgium waffle with syrup or ice cream, and enjoy the atmosphere of a real old fashioned style ice cream parlour.

Mr B’s, Hayle, Cornwall

Established in 2004, Mr B’s reputation for the best of artisan ice cream has spread throughout the land, thanks to the thousands of surfing enthusiasts and families, who visit Hayle year on year. With sorbets to die for, and a mix of Italian ingredients with real Cornish ice cream, you will find flavours you’ve never tried before. There is also a whole range of sauces and desserts, smoothies, milkshakes and fudge to be taken away or enjoyed in the bright, comfortable café.

Morelli’s Gelato, Broadstairs, Kent

If you consider the best ice cream to be gelato, if your thing is retro 50s, then a visit to one of Morelli’s gelato franchises is a must. An Italian company with its roots firmly in the UK, one of the company’s earliest outlets is in Broadstairs, Kent. With a choice of over 25 ice cream flavours, a soda fountain, a 1950’s style flying awning, pink leatherette seats (yes really), and fabulous views over Viking Bay, everyone will be glad you stopped off for that ice cream cone – or maybe something a little more exotic.

Equi’s Ice Cream, Hamilton, South Lanarkshire

Go north young man, to Hamilton, at least if you want the finest of ice cream. Another Italian gelato ice cream manufacturer, this time started way back in 1922 by Pietro Equi, an Italian immigrant to the UK, and still operated by the family today. If you think the best ice cream is just ice cream, take the time to pay a visit to Equi’s in Burbank Road on your next summer tour of the Highlands and Islands. With over 200 prestigious awards for the quality and fabulous flavours of their products since the mid-1950s, your whole family will love the experience.

As the summer temperature creeps upward, whether you’re in London or Edinburg, Manchester, Glasgow, the south coast or the west country, somewhere nearby will be an award winning ice cream parlour, just waiting to tickle your best ice cream taste buds like never before.
