Tasty Scottish ice cream!…read more This is the best ice cream shop! They offer 40 flavors, and the shopkeep is super nice and friendly. I asked him for the Scottish ice cream experience as today was my last day in Scotland. He told me about flavors that he had from different regions of Scotland, and the ice creams that have won prizes in Scotland. I went with his recommendation of lemon honey and it did not disappoint! I also ordered vanilla. It was a perfect combo. The ice cream tastes so good! I wish I had this shop close to my house! This place is awesome because it is owned and operated by Scottish locals. The shop also offers smaller Scottish treats. We purchased Scottish butter cookies to take home with us. This was the best ice cream shop. The ice cream was so fresh! They also offer dairy free choices. Don't be afraid to ask questions and recommendations based on your palate. Stop by here if you're craving some Scottish ice cream.

Good to get a quick scoop, sit in the park and lick it up before heading to Loch Lomond or wherever your destination is. They accept debit payment over 5 pounds, otherwise it's cash only. It's a very small place, so not for sit-in. It's decent ice cream, nothing to rave about, but I liked it because it's proper ice cream, not soft serve. Worth a pop-in on a hot day if you're passing through Balloch and fancy some ice cream.

Great wee ice cream shop right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Oban…read more My boyfriends sisters husband fancied an ice cream while out and about in Oban, so we stopped in here. He kept it simple and ordered just a plain soft serve, while the rest of us went with single cones of scooped ice cream. The boyfriend had mint chocolate chip and I went for the toffee fudge. Both delicious in their own rights, but I think next time I could go for a double. The shop is small, but there's just enough room to get in and get out. A small queue was formed because the day was super sunny and warm but the service was speedy and we got our ice creams and left. Reading Kate M.'s review, I now know that a pokey hat is a Scottish term for an ice cream cone, which is something new to me. I love learning little things like that. What a great little place.

My mum had a double cone of raspberry and coconut ice creams, my auntie Shirley went for coconut and pistachio ice creams, I had a single Turkish delight ice cream and the boy had white chocolate. The single cones were massive!!!!!! And the double cones were really generous. All our ice creams were served in lovely waffle cones. The ice cream is all made on the premises to,Italian recipes. I have one teeny tiny complaint and its just they had no Ferrero rocher ice cream as that one is the bomb! The coconut ice creams were delicious, they had a really good flavour and consistency, the raspberry tasted just like fresh raspberries in cream and the pistachio has a beautiful delicate flavour. My Turkish delight ice cream had chunks of frys Turkish delight in it and it was beautifully flavoured. The boys white choc ice cream was also delicately flavoured, I find a lot of white choc ice creams very sickly and the boy isn't a massive ice cream fan but we both love the white choc ice cram from here as it has a lovely subtle flavour :-) It's £2 for a single cone and £3 for a double, this is a really reasonable price for decent portions of delicious well made ice cream. If you are going to Oban you must pop the pokey hat on your visit list :-)

This is such a cute café and gift shop. They are so friendly and warm. You feel like you're eating at a friend's house. We had the leek and sweet potato soup, scone with cream and jam, tea and ice cream. Random I know but all delicious. Soup-thick and flavorful. It was the prettiest orange color and came with some seriously hearty brown brood (that's Scottish for bread). Scone-moist with raisins. It was good by itself but then you add the raspberry jam andhwhipped cream(not sweet-think more like whipped butter) and watch out! I may never leave. The tea was hot and spot on with the scone. Ice cream-they call it ice cream but it was more like frozen custard. Rich, thick and creamy!!! So good. I got traditional flavor-like vanilla. They have a great view of the loch and the castle. There's great outdoors seating and a trail down to a viewing point. This place is great!!! Come for the view and stay for the food. It's so worth a stop.

The cafe itself serves rolls/sandwiches and homemade soup. But the really best bit is the homemade baking the scones and tarts and cakes are amazing. Also I loved the hot chocolates which were topped with fresh cream and crushed maltesers - gorgeous.

Situated at the Greenock end of the beautiful Esplanade on the Clyde, this little cafe has been tempting locals for years now. Whether your driving by and fancy grabbing a tub of ice cream for home, or having a relaxing walk along the esplanade which would be all the better if it were accompied with a 99, this cafe should be your first stop. They sell their raspberry sause (which is the best I've ever had) by the bottle, and its only a QUID! Ace! They also have some of thee best ice cream this side of Italy with the Vanilla ice cream with Tablet being my favorite. They also do one with puff candy in it for you visiting yanks coming off of the cruise ships!

There was a line out the front door that moved pretty quickly. Once we were inside the building we saw that they also sell packaged candy and fresh chocolates. The fresh chocolates were delicious but the ice cream is a show stopper. Both of us decided on a mint chocolate chip sundae. Since all of their cone portion sizes appeared small compared to the U.S. we assumed that our sundaes would also be small. I was surprised to see that they were massive. There was a huge amount of whipped cream and a cookie that topped it all off. The ice cream is made fresh daily and is super creamy. The flavor was delicious.

To begin with, don't let the name of the cafe confuse you... yes, it IS a dairy with great ice…read morecream... but it also serves food, including sandwiches, scones, tea, and breakfast (i've uploaded a pic of the menu). Yelp has rejected my recommendation of calling it Scottish Food or a Cafe and has kept it listed simply as Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt (neither of which I've tried here yet). There is some good food in Perth even though you may have to pay a bit more for it than you would in the bigger cities of Scotland. But just outside Perth, you find some farm shops with some incredible locally sourced food. Stewart Tower Dairy is one of these. Most people would have found this place either by word of mouth or from signs on the A9. I actually discovered this place whilst road biking with a friend. And wow.... so glad I know about Stewart Tower. I have only stopped here on my bike rides and they're very welcoming to cyclists, even sweaty ones. The staff here are super friendly. They also have a nice shop inside with local and/or gourmet foods. Most of the time I have had just a pot of tea with a scone. I have learnt recently to ask for the Tea Pigs Everyday blend. It's even better than the regular house blend, so I would recommend trying that or one of the other specialty teas. On another stop, I was trying to decide whether or not to push through and have a late lunch at home or whether I should have lunch at Stewart Tower Dairy.... AND... maybe I gave in and had lunch there. This was partly to do with the fact that the menu had minestrone that day, and I definitely didn't have homemade soup at my flat. So I had to have it. And I ordered a Coronation Chicken sandwich to go along with it, served on malted brown bread. It was SOOO good. I often feel like Coronation Chicken is a good test run for sandwiches for any cafe, and I wasn't disappointed. So... my advice is as followed: if you're in Perth and have a car, then there are two places you should check out. Stewart Tower Dairy is one of them. And you won't be disappointed. It's about a 10-15 minute drive out of town. And if you happen to have just biked through Little Glenshee, then reward yourself with a scone, tray bake or some ice cream. No need to push through and bike home without a break ;) Oh and did I mention they have goats and lambs for the kids to see outside? So bring the kids, but maybe not on your bike.
