Todays ice cream taste wasnt the norm, less cream and flavour, no bits of flavour swirled in between, I dont know what to make of it. The last few times I came here it was like nothing I have ever tasted before, amazing ice cream, it used to be my favourite little place, like a hidden gem, now its just hidden flavour. I usually order pistachio and hazelnut, or mango, not impressed today. A wasted trip. You guys used to rock, whats happening. I know you can do it again..I will be going back as the owners were kind enough to respond. Thank you ice Cafe

Have you ever tasted real homemade ice-cream? You know ...the stuff that melts in your mouth because its so creamy 😋? Thats what you can expect from the Ice Cafe, together with a variety of flavours both in sorbet and creamy ice-cream ranges. Pick one scoop mix and match them, its presented in sugar cone, classic cone or paper cup options. Youll be back for more...

We got here just in time for the last cups of coffee before they closed for the day. The barista chatted to us about our day, the coffee was good. I took some lovely pictures of a Cape Wagtail that kept us entertained as we relaxed on the picnic tables outside.There is also a nice curio shop,

Great little icecream shop right on Main Road - definitely worth a visit. Or better yet, a stroll down the road culminating in an icecream.In COVID times theyre enforcing a maximum number in the shop (and at least while we were there, people were respecting that).

We all had great tasting ice-cream and the prices and servings are OK; ice-cream in a tourist area is never going to be cheap. Service was quick.

Sorry guys. I had to drop a star. The ice cream is getting too pricey. Costs a family of 4 over R100 for 1 scoop each. Its good but now more of a special occasion than Sunday afternoon type place.

Delicious ice cream for an affordable price. I recommend the Turkish delight ice cream if you like that as a flavour, its so good and has little chocolate chips in it! R24.50 for a scoop or can do a half half of 2 different flavours. There are so many different flavours to choose from its a fantastic stop off if youre in Kalk Bay.

Review №54

Lovely and delicious ice-creams here at the Ice Cafe in Kalk Bay! Taste sensation; spoilt for choice in terms of delectable desserts, excellent, funky service and feel good sunny afternoons in the sleepy seaside village of Kalk Bay. This ice-cream shop is great for an after lunch or dinner treat and adds to the chilled out nature of the area as you lick your ice-cream and check out the various cool and quaint shops along the way to the harbour! Enjoy it all!

Review №55

The queue moves quickly, the staff works well to serve the customers but there is not a lot of space in the store. There could be more seating provided and there should be an option to do toppings on the ice-cream. However, the flavours are great and diverse.

Ja
Review №56

One of the most popular ice-cream stores in Cape Town. Whether you are going to Kalk Bay, St James or passing by this is a must stop. Usually have 10 or 12 flavors to choose from at any time. Store can be rather full when busy but there are benches outside or just enjoy your ice-cream on the move while exploring the numerous shops, restaurants or street performers.

Review №57

Yes you get big scoops but compared to other ice cream places we have been to this is only mid-level ice cream in terms of options, flavor and presentation.

Review №62

Fantastic little shop with great ice cream. The greatest challenge is working out what to eat from their great selection. The second challenge is trying to finish the generous portions before the ice cream melts

Review №63

Small, friendly, lots of flavours and value for moneyA tiny little ice cream shop in Kalk Bay. They offer around 10-15 different flavours of homemade ice cream and sorbet, which are all consistently good.The prices are actually very reasonable and it makes for a great treat to have walking along the main road. (Shops nearby seem less fanatical about ice cream in their premises though)

Whenever I pass through Kalkbay I think Ice café! I love this shop. And I love ice-cream especially this great tasting. There are so many flavours to choose from and if you buy the family box of 6 scoops, it works out the cheapest per scoop.

Thank you so much for making it possible for the group on Saturday morning to have an ice cream at the Ice Café. I am so grateful to Angelo (copied in this mail) for getting in touch with you and for setting this up for us.It could not have been a nicer way to finish a super walk from Muizenberg. What we perhaps did not mention to you was that for all 30 of the children we hosted, none had ever been to Cape Town before and in fact, for some, this was their first time at the sea!It was also such a pleasure to enjoy such kind and helpful service not just from yourselves but also from the lady who was on duty. My apologies that I did not get her name – I was enjoying my mango yoghurt ice cream too much!Kind regardsGraham
