  “Fantastic ice cream and not too pricey. They have other drinks and food available as well. Parking nearby can be tricky”

  “We stopped here by chance on our way to Harrogate. This is probably one of the tastiest ice creams in the UK. The queue at the checkout also speaks volumes. There are so many different flavours of ice cream, and there is something for everyone. I definitely recommend this place.”

  “We had the great icecream, but we also came in for late breakfast most days on our 5 day stay in Ripley (for the Harrogate Food& Drink Fest late Summer) Lovely omelettes and breakfast baps, jackets, teas coffees. Well run and solid people xx We were 2 couples and stayed at nearby Foxy Cottage which I really recommend also for 3-4 people.”

  “The Ripley ice cream (world famous!!!) is now trading from premises that are behind the Boar's Head. The quality is excellent as ever, the seating is in the courtyard, altogether wonderful. They also have a cafe now, and an area for the shop, so don't worry when you see the old premises up for sale, they have not dragged their feet, and I would say this is an improvement, if that could be possible.💕😍❤️”

  “Wish I checked the reviews before I visited. Thought I had a lovely experience until I’ve been charged with a £100 parking ticket. Being unfamiliar with the area and the car park right next to the shop, it completely does feel like a trap. The car park was completely empty and so was the shop when I went in since it was quite early, so I hadn’t thought anything of it. Nobody at the counter mentioned anything about the parking, and after seeing some reviews on here and possibly other people who have gone through this exact thing, it genuinely feels I’ve been ripped off. To quote the woman at The Boars Head which is who the car park actually does belong to, “it’s turned into a very expensive ice cream and coffee” she said laughing. If anything it seems like it’s been engineered for that with the ANPR system and no mention of anything from anyone inside, even though it was obvious to them we weren’t regulars. If you’re not from the area and can’t walk to the shop, this is definitely not the place to stop. Even after trying to explain, I got completely rejected by both places the ice cream shop and the hotel of any understanding. Oh well, won’t be going back there ever again.”

  “The ice cream is absolutely delicious. A great variety of flavours and it's extremely smooth, high quality ice cream. We tried the traditional scoops, but the soft serve looked equally inviting. We didn't try the cafe, but will do when the weather isn't as warm!”

  “Nice large, dog friendly cafè. Seating in and outdoors. Great for walkers. Parking may be busy in the summer. I would like to see more vegetarian and vegan alternatives.”

  “The new location is absolutely amazing. More seating outside for sunny days, and now they have seating inside for those rainy ones too. This is a must see while in Harrogate and definitely worth the trip.”

  “Absolute top tier ice cream. It was a difficult choice as to which flavour to go for but I had the banoffee and cherry and both were delicious. Well worth a detour for probably one of the best ice creams I’ve tasted. More than made up for the castle and distillery being closed. I look forward to the next time I’m up north to try their other flavours”
