Vanilla Joe's
Review
Ayrshire has got a lot of big attractions, sprinkled with it’s fair share of hidden gems along the way. Here at Vanilla Joe’s, I couldn’t of done the venue any justice by simply featuring it as one of my recommended places to eat and so, I thought we would feature the Ice Cream Factory as one of our ‘hidden gem’ attractions. With 80’s arcade machines, a children’s fun slide and some of Scotland’s best ice cream, this makes a great combination for a visit to this, one of our smallest of Scotland’s hidden gems. The staff are really friendly and will go out of their way to make sure your visit is one that will be one to be remembered and I also think it’s worth mentioning that there are another couple of Vanilla Joe’s coffee shop/ ice cream parlours, also situated in Irvine, so look out for them as the level of service, value for money and visitor experience can be found within these also.
