The workers were polite and the ice-cream tasted great. I went with iron bru (on the top) and unicorn poo (on the bottom) the iron bru taste was a bit on the lighter side but it did taste like iron bru. Brilliant place.

Plenty of choice of ice cream and reasonable price just outside of the Loch Ness exhibition. Some outside seating too which is handy. Also do sweet treats such as donuts and cannoli. A few other branches in Inverness and Aviemore
