🍦 Scottish summer… you never quite know what you’re going to get! ☀️🌦️

Whether you’re soaking up the sunshine or taking shelter from a passing shower, there’s always a good excuse for an ice cream! 😋

At Allanwater Cafe, we’ve been making our ice cream fresh on site since 1902, using Grahams Dairy milk and butter for that deliciously creamy taste you know and love. ❤️

Some people wear their hearts on their sleeves… this wee superstar wears her love of ice cream on her T-shirt! 🍦💕

With the heatwave making the perfect excuse for an ice cream (as if we needed one! ☀️😎), we absolutely loved seeing this little legend Isla rocking her t-shirt.

If you’re looking to cool down, you know where to find us! What’s your favourite flavour at the moment? 👇🍨

UPDATE - NO GLUTEN FREE BATTER 22/5/2026

OUR FAULT is still not fixed we are very sorry to say! The new part has not arrived with our engineer!

We are so so sorry to our GF loyal customers for this disappointing news☹️

Due to a fault with the oil filtration system in our frying range we’re unfortunately unable to offer gluten-free batter this Wednesday (15 April).

We’re working to get this resolved as quickly as possible and hope to have it back very soon.

Thank you for your patience and understanding 💛
