Barries in Richmondshire

Great service with a smile from a Scottish lady. Shame they don’t do sprinkles on their ice cream. And why oh why do they only accept cash. Everybody uses contactless and card these days. Will visit again.

I approached the kiosk at roughly 10:15 to be barked at that he wasn’t open yet… a simple ‘give me 10 minutes and I’ll be right with you’ would have been much better. I didn’t want to go back but we’d settled there and the kiddies were excited about ice cream. This time he just grumbled ‘I hope you’ve got change’ before I’d even asked for anything!! So rude and uncalled for

First 99 I’ve had in years, yes they’re no longer 99p but you can’t complain about that. £2.50 for one with a flake, and it was perfect. Could just do with some raspberry sauce!

Don't go here!!! Appalling owner who is simply just rude. When I went for an icecream he was playing on his phone and when I spoke he didn't bother to answer me, just kept playing on his phone.The food is over priced and very poor quality. I now buy from the lovely people in Richmond market square and then walk down to the river. The river side is a lovely place to visit and doesn't deserve to be spoilt by an ignorant owner like he is. Please DONT support this business.

We arrived at about 1pm. Menu was very basic but pricey. Staff did not seem particularly interested in their work.

Ice cream was sour - absolutely awful and no refund when we returned it! I’m appalled that the young attendant said nothing he could do! I said you can give me my money back and he flatly refused!! 😡😡xx

Tried to give zero stars. The ice-cream tasted bitter and off so I tried to return it, owner wasn't having a bar of it, told me it wasn't. I think I've eaten enough ice cream in my life to know when it doesn't taste right. I threw it in the bin, wish I'd dumped it on his counter and told the waiting customers not to buy the ice cream as it was horrible. Don't think he's heard of the customer is always right. Hope my little boy isn't ill from the lick he had and wish I'd tasted it before he did.

found this whilst walking by the falls..needed a drink and barries provided a good cuppa...albeit a polystyrene cup...it was worth taking a seat for. other drinks and ice cream etc available but only needed a drink.........and public toilets very close by which came in very handy!

Perfectly placed in the car park and next to the river 'falls' serving whippy ice cream and basic food. We just had the basic ice cream and it was a bit too soft really (too much air added perhaps!) but ok. Jovial staff. and it looked clean.

Very expensive and mediocre food ice cream prices are just a rip off owner also has an ice cream kiosk in the town centre so you can't escape the high prices

I frequently pop down to the river and unfortunately this is the only place that you can get a drink or a snack. It's been here a long time and so it's fair to say it's established, the down side is it never seems to improve, it sells as you would expect ice creams and soft drinks and tea,coffee etc. but it always seems poor quality and tasteless rubbish, the ice cream is for an ice cream vendor quite poor and is almost melted as soon as it is offered to you and is tasteless compared to other local produced ice creams? Perhaps he needs to stop using that machine that makes ice cream out of powder and milk and simply buy quality products from an reputable supplier because it is expensive rubbish he sells. What's more his staff are not interested in serving you, the whole experience is unwelcoming, perhaps another cafe or kiosk would provide competition and he would have to up his game to get the business.

Down by the river near a little pebble beach, kids loved having an ice cream, and throwing pebbles in the water Ice cream is really nice thick whippy style

The best whippy ice cream we've come across anywhere near here. In fact we'd say you'll have to go to Ireland ;) Just a kiosk doing snacks and drinks as well as this wonderful ice cream, but the view of the River and falls more than makes up for anything else you may need ;)
