Found tub and cone today while out shopping. The carrot cake was amazing, my husband and i had coffee and cake inside while weather was awful outside. The young staff were lovely and chatty and the service was friendly. Fabulous little find
We had spotted the shop front several times but did not know how to get there by car. We now know you simply take Crouch Road off the roundabout and there is free parking. We stopped by today eager to get an ice cream and when we got there to our dismay they were closed for refurbishment. But, on seeing the looks on our faces, especially my 10 year old daughter, the owner opened the door and asked if we would like to have an ice cream on the house!. AMAZING! Not only did we both get an ice cream but more to the point the ice cream was out of this world. I would highly recommend a visit. We are going to pop back tomorrow as it was so good and treat ourselves. What a lovely old fashioned shop selling quality ice creams with a customer service that shows how much she cares about her customers. A real hidden gem of a shop. Please visit, you will no be disapointed. FIVE STARS ALL DAY LONG!
It’s a cute little desert cafe with really good freshly made desserts. Loved the nutella waffle that I got there. The hosts are also very polite, humble and caring. Speed is good. Would totally recommend for dessert cravings and they also customise on request.
We went here after a meal out (babysitter at home with kids!)
The wife had a very nice Ferrero Waffle and I had a chocolate molten lava cake... both were very nice.
The shop has some chairs / stools for eating inside, but not many so mainly deserts will be takeaway.
Worth a visit if you fancy something sweet - we have already talked about returning!
I really love it here, the owner is always super friendly, as are all the staff. Ice cream is delicious, as are the coffees. A cosy, homey atmosphere - highly recommend.
This place would be amazing if it provided quality croissants, pain au chocolats etc. The Tesco opposite wouldn't be able to compete. A good family business with quirky decor.
Genuinely the best deserts place in town.
Heroic portions and very warm and welcoming staff, pretty sure it's an independently owned place too which is nice. Go and support them 👍
Heaven for desserts in town with a very kind onwer. The waffle was amazing with a huge portion. Also, the ambience is great with Jazz played in the background.
Friendly staff & a pleasant atmosphere to eat in (despite the tiny dine-in space). So good to eat, I'll even forgive them for getting the order slightly wrong.
Above and beyond customer service! Amazing desserts! Would highly recommend Tub and Cone!
