Walling's Irish Dairy 5 scoops on the day

What we make

Real ice cream.
Made properly.

We don't do soft-serve. We scoop real Irish dairy ice cream from Walling's — the family dairy in Armagh, churning the way their grandfather did. Creamy, slow-churned, proper stuff. You taste the difference on the first lick.

On the bike, every day

Five scoops.
That's the deal.

Mint choc chip · Lotus · Nutella · Salted caramel — ask what's on the day.

How you take it

Cones & tubs.
Your call.

Sauces & toppings

Make it yours.
Make it ridiculous.

A self-serve topping table — drizzle, crunch, sprinkle. Pick what you like. Ask the scooper if you want a recommendation.

What's on the table varies — ask when we set up. Vegan options always available.
