Skye's Scoop

 On todays round of reviews we have Big Licks! address - 47 Finnieston St, Finnieston, Glasgow G3 8JU instagram - @biglicksofficial  Big Licks store is positioned in Finnieston so it is safe to say students make up a big part of the consumers. There is also plenty parking which is convenient but also means you'll be sure to spot some boys waiting for their order, racing around. With Big Licks offering collection, dine in or takeaway service it suits everyone! Furthermore the opening hours are 1-10:30pm so is a good spot to get something sweet after a nice meal out.    The logo is super recognisable and fun, and is light up in red LED on both the outside and inside of the shop - you won't miss it when passing. I've visited Big Licks a fair few times now and tend to just collect my order rather than siting in. However, this has nothing to do with the interior decor or atmosphere. They stick with red ...

 Welcome back! For the second recommendation I will be discussing Colpi Geleteria.  address - 38 Main St, Milnagvie, Glasgow G62 6BU website - https://www.purecolpi.co.uk/gelateria instagram - @purecolpi Colpi Geleteria is located slightly outside of Glasgow, in Milngavie (only a 20 minute drive, or train journey) but it is definitely one worth mentioning. Differing from the popular newer dessert shops, Colpi ice cream uses an 100 year old recipe which remains unchanged. The premises opened in 1928 just after the Italian immigration making the ice cream  truly traditional. This gives Colpi that extra special feel. Furthermore, their artisan ice cream is fully handcrafted every day in store making it even fresher and tastier. It is also something which is hard to come by these days. Colpi's motto is 'when life is complicated, you can rely on Colpi to keep things perfectly simple. Our traditional ice cream captures the ...

First up we have Loop and Scoop!  address - 665 Great Western Rd, Glasgow G12 8RE website -   https://loopandscoop.com/#about instagram -   @loopandscoop Loop and Scoop originally opened on Great Western Road, situated in the west end of Glasgow. However, in recent months a new branch has opened up in Bearsden, extending their clientele beyond their typical university students. It is the UK's first ever churro and ice cream bar which adds a unique touch. Their signature dish is the Loop and Scoop, consisting of, as the name suggests, a scoop of ice cream with a big loop shaped churro. In addition, they offer a variety of ice cream flavours (take home size tubs are also available) and different styles of churros ranging from churro bites to larger sizes with a side of sweet dips. Milkshakes are available which are made from their ice cream. Something that is particularly appealing about the shop is that they cater to various dietary requirements including a selection ...
