Ice cream parlours used to be as attractive to vegans as getting a pin in your eye. They were places we just had to walk on by. They were dead to us. Well, not anymore. Loop & Scoop have come to our frosty rescue.

They are the first ice cream and churro bar in the UK and their parlour is a bright, welcoming space with plenty of seats upstairs in a mezzanine area. More importantly, they always have SIX different vegan ice creams and/or sorbets on offer at any one time. These are kept in a separate freezer on their own (directly opposite the window) and away from the milky stuff. Just ask the staff and they’ll direct you to heaven. 

The churros (a fried dough pastry) are vegan anyway, but Loop & Scoop make them soft and doughy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I personally recommend the Vegan Choconut loop and scoop: a large hot churro covered in dark chocolate glaze with chopped nuts and two ice cream scoops of your choice. It’s your pot luck which flavours are available on the day but the Biscoff, Turkish Delight and Dark Chocolate are really top notch and they’re very generous with their scoop sizes too. What more can I say?
