About Big Licks Skypark
On Finnieston St in Glasgow, Big Licks Skypark is an ice cream shop that also turns out smash burgers alongside its desserts. The menu pairs items like the Smasherella and smash burger loaded fries with ice cream in a range of flavours, plus cakes and slushies. Cheesecake appears among the dessert options, with portions that run large. Food is prepared to order, so a wait before the meal arrives is part of the visit. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis rather than by reservation, and a seating area offers plenty of room for those eating in. The shop covers both a quick dessert stop and a fuller meal in one counter-service format.

Customer Review Summary
Desserts anchor the reputation here, with reviewers describing portions "the size of your head," calling out the cheesecake and cookie dough as standouts among a wide selection for anyone with a sweet tooth. Close behind, several diners praise the burgers, one detailing a smash burger, buffalo burger, and BBQ chicken burger alongside sides like chilli cheese bites and garlic parmesan fries as consistently fresh and well made. Staff warmth comes up often too, with a few singling out one server for going out of her way. But service is inconsistent: one reviewer describes a front of house employee who was rude over an unwiped table, wiping crumbs onto the seats rather than cleaning it properly, while another says an order of four faloodas sat waiting before being told the noodles weren't in stock. A further reviewer notes the place has "gone downhill," citing a need for a scrub and tatty menus, though the desserts still held up.

“Fantastic service with a smile from the staff on the evening we went. Food was delicious, delicious, and we felt well attended to by those working. Was almost there on a consecutive night during the Commonwealth Games.”

“Gone downhill sadly. Place needs a good scrub, tatty menus, desserts were still good. A few years back it used to be in tip top shape. Food establishments especially should take hygiene and cleanliness seriously”

“This is the kind of business idea you have as a 4 year old. “Mom, when I grow up, I’m gonna have an ice cream restaurant and there will be cookie dough and burgers and also a pool table.” Desserts a size of your head, absolutely insane and amazing, 10/10, no notes.”

“The front of house has been EXTREMELY rude on two occasions. Put us in a with my young nieces and it had not been wiped down. When I asked if someone could give the table a wipe she had such an attitude problem, as if I had asked something absurd. She wiped all the crumbs onto the seats.. it was so uncomfortable that I asked if I could have a brush to clean the seats, her response - it’s ok…. We have came out to enjoy ourselves and treat our kids, just puts a sour taste in your mouth when you have such bad customer service.”

“The food was AMAZING. Had a little wait, as everything was made to order, but well worth the wait. My partner had a chicken burger and I had the smash burger loaded fries, then we had cheesecake for desert. There was plenty to chose from. We will definitely be back to try some of the other things on offer.”
