David Thayer's Ice-Cream in Bath and North East Somerset

…this place was the least busy so we popped in and really enjoyed the chocolate ice cream, which was cheaper than we were expecting: £3 a scoop. Friendly, quick service too.

We visited the ice cream shop today. The ice cream was lovely but we will never go back again. The owner came into the shop and launched a tirade of abuse at the poor young assistants serving. He was so loud that the young lady serving us could not here us order. He was thoroughly rude and very aggressive and we are shocked that he can get anyone to work for him at all. Everyone needs to boycott this shop!!!!

Wanted to purchase 8 ice creams and was told NO CARDS !!! Had no cash on me, was told to go to the nearest ATM. Very rude in front of staff and customers. Even to the point of him telling me that ONLY THE SNOBBY ONES WISH TO USE THEIR CARDS. Never been talked to in this disgraceful way before.

Our 8 year old spotted the ice cream shop when we were on the roof at the baths… when we finished our tour he ran ahead to order his cone! As we entered the shop he was being told that it wasn’t a children’s ice cream shop! Turns out that my son had asked for Bubble gum flavoured ice cream…. The shop keeper told him that he refused to stock it, - he’s 8?! Don’t get me wrong I have a similar feeling about bubble gum ice cream…. But when a young child politely asks he then said to him that this is a “grown up ice cream shop” WOW! What a very sad approach to your business! My son left with a very nice tasting mint choc chip…. But I left with a sour taste in my mouth. Terrible attitude! (Reading reviews clearly were not the first to experience this joyous approach to his customers!)

The sales assistant used the same gloves to serve ice-cream and handle cash during a pandemic. When I pointed out she didn't suggest getting another ice cream, instead she apologize but didn't take any action

Estaba caminando por la Abadía y esperando el autobús. Esta heladería está justo ahí. Le permiten probar primero antes de realizar el pedido.

It all looked so good, it was hard to choose just one flavor! Of course you can get more than that. The ice cream was fantastic!

Just visited this ice cream shop today. My advice to anyone, never buy anything from this guy. When we visited the owner shouted continusouly at the staff members in front of a shop full of customers. One staff member was on the rota to leave work at 6pm and was told to stay until 7pm.....the poor young staff members said nothing just answered while he continued to humiliate them in front of customers. Really really bad!

Just round the corner from Bath Abbey is thiis little ice cream shop with a good range of flavours. I was delighted to find two of my favourites - pistachio, and honey & ginger - on a hot day this really hit the spot!

Had a day trip to Bath and had to go to thayers shop as I remembered it from 30 years ago when I lived there. Looks a little dated compared with modern ice cream shops but the ice cream still fabulous. Had the salted caramel, lovely

Yummy ice cream shop across from Bath Abbey. Lots of unique, tempting flavors. Friend had a clotted cream vanilla cone. I had a double of lemon-lime cheesecake and white chocolate honeycomb crunch. Delicious! Take a fun photo with the statue outside.

This is an ice-cream parlour which showcases the best of the West Country with its lovely dairy ice-creams. You can choose from a myriad of flavours and then sit outside the abbey and watch the world go by ! The prces are reasonable for the location too !

They had some different and unusual flavours and honestly it was an incredible ice cream, and the service was great and really friendly as well.

We were lucky to experience such lovely weather on our trip to Bath last week. Weather so nice that we sat outside the Abbey with our ice cream, very lovely it was too. The cornets crisp and fresh and lovely tasting ice cream. This shop does not accept credit cards so have your cash ready. If they are busy, it is probably advisable to have some change too.

Went to buy a milkshake which was ok to be fair. The young girl who served us was really pleasant but was being tutored in the art of skinflint milkshake making by an older guy - Mr Thayer's I presume - who was really miserable and sounded like a penny-pinching old geezer. 'Only one scoop of ice-cream, not one and a bit'. Not a bad location for the shop but I would aim to go elsewhere next time.

Handy location on the edge of a square between the Baths and Abbey, with lots of benches outside. Quite a dated interior to this shop, but it's what's in the freezer, not what's on the walls that matters. The ginger was particularly impressive.

It was warm and I really needed some ice-cream, and this just hit the spot for me. I had a coconut ice-cream scoop that was just the best I have ever tasted

Después del almuerzo, queríamos algo dulce y nos metimos en la pequeña tienda de David Thayer.

Elderflower and raspberry sorbet was delicious.Also raspberry pavlova and chocolate Ferrero ice cream was given a big thumbs up by my friend. Tasters are readily given

I had Raspberry sorbet and chocolate in a cup. My friend had Elderflower sorbet and Strawberry and dairy ice cream......yummy

We chose the best weekend of the year so far to come here for an amazing cecream. Will certainly return

Visitamos el Baño hace unas semanas cuando fue particularmente soleado, así naturalmente en tropel a la heladería! Tienda de David thayer's está en una calle con bastantes tiendas de helado, así que la decisión de donde ir fue un duro, pero mis amigos y yo estamos seguros de haberlo elegido Thayer!

A small ice cream shop just in front of Roman Bath. So busy with customers. Still they take care of you and let you taste before you buy. Tasty. Scoop full is enough for one.

Advertencia. Gran trozo de plástico.

Habíamos oído cosas buenas sobre el fudge y helado en la bañera, así que vimos Thayers Tienda y fuimos David en probar el producto. Tienda mono, personal servicial, nos dieron tres tipos de fudge y jengibre helado mmm! Solo aceptan efectivo, pero siempre llevar dinero en efectivo, así que no era un problema. Delicioso helado y delicioso fudge! Pruébalo.

Sólo tenía uno de estos para terminar nuestro viaje de un día a Bath. Cosas sabrosas. Te dejan probar antes de nosotros compramos y el hombre detrás del mostrador nos dio un poco descuidado sobre algunos de los sabores. En general, voto sí!

Buscando un buen helado, cerca de la plaza, ya que era bonito y soleado en el exterior. En esta tienda sólo se dijo que sólo estaba a abrir. No hay helado, a cogerlos sacadas del congelador - dijo volver en cinco minutos. Decidimos ir a otra tienda que estaba preparado para servir mientras el sol salió.

Back to the tour bus on a hot summer day, but not before stopping off for a tasty bit of ice cream. Very nice indeed, and a great staff with smiley, friendly faces. Really excellent!

Good selection and opens late, sit in or take out. You can also have other things, the coffee was giood

On the door chalkboard said £1 for coffee. Inside says coffee with free shortbread cookie but price was £1.30. When we walked in we commented that it cost more but, "that's okay it comes with a cookie". My sister ordered a coffee, my mum a...

Mi pareja y yo probamos 3 sabores cada uno y quedé impresionado con todas y todos, sabrosa, buena relación calidad-precio y mucha variedad! 🍦

Not as trendy as some of the other ice cream parlours in Bath, but there is a good selection of ice creams on offer, and we were served quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed eating our Jaffa cake ice creams while listening to the buskers outside the abbey.

Just opposite Roman Bath, you find this ice cream shop on York Street. After visiting the attraction Roman Bath we went here to have some dessert. They serve many flavors of creamy, delicious, and crunchy ice creams. They also serve coffee and other cold drinks. Most of the time you will find a long queue, so you will have to wait but it is worth waiting for good ice-cream.

When in Bath, try ice cream from Bath! This is it, great flavors and good ingredients. If you are going to allocate ice cream (add it to healthy eating!) this is your stop.

Stopped by after the Baths and there was a line to get in the store, so we figured it must be good. It was SOOOO good!!! If we are ever that way again we will definitely stop again.

We called in here after visiting the baths and the abbey and I have to say, this was deliciously awesome ice cream. SO creamy and smooth and fresh blackcurrants all the way through. The cone was a good quality waffle cone and filled with ice cream down to the bottom.I THINK it was abiut £2.40 and absolutely worth every penny. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting in the square watching the buskers outside the abbey.

Not the best ice cream shop you'll ever visit. We tried some of the fudge which was very tasty. It's a small shop and it's a bit drab inside.

这家雪糕店就在巴斯修道院旁边，参观完修道院以后可以走过来吃个雪糕。这里的雪糕有好多口味，而且都标榜着是手工制作。

Dropped in for a cone after visiting the nearby Roman Baths and the Abbey. The ice cream there was great.

I was treated to many ice creams in here as a boy when for many years it was known as Hands Dairy and ice cream was their specialty.Lots more ice creams and milk shakes followed over the years as I grew up and took other people to enjoy the experience too.The location is the same and it is an ideal place to stop and rest on a hot day or just to grab a delicious ice cream.

Good one. Do visit once if you happen to pass from here..Do visit once if you happen to pass from here..

It was a rainy day in Bath and we bought 2 single waffle cones. Mint Choc-chip and Turkish Delight. The service was nothing to write home about - no smile or greeting.The waffle cones were fresh and tasty, however the ice cream was soft and average.

There are a variety of fudges and other treats but we opted for ice cream and were not disappointed by the quality or price.

It was a hot bank holiday Saturday afternoon. This was just what the doctor orderedThe staff were very patient. So much choice!!!!!! The ice cream was so so yummy.Don't pass this shop by. You will just enjoy every mouthful

There are a number of ice cream shops on the street, and visiting on a very sunny day they were all in high demand. However, this place, along with the Real Italian Ice Cream Company seemed to have the longest queues, and I can now understand why! The shop does seem to be quite old and is easy to miss, especially given the large number of advertising the the other ice cream shops stick up in front of the shop, however given our experience it is not hard to see why it is so popular. The staff were very friendly, even letting everyone try a couple of flavours each. They well trained, and had a good understanding of what each flavour contained and were very happy to give their recommendations. I opted for a scoop of hazelnut and chocolate ice cream (similar to a Ferrero Roche) with a scoop of coffee on top - something which I struggle to find in most shops these days. Both flavours were very nice, and the rest of my group really enjoyed their choices too. Will definitely return to this shop again!

This ice-cream shop just next to Bath Abbey is really delicious. Ice-cream there was creamy and tasty. I had 3 scoops on a waffle cone: strawberry and cream, rum and raisins, and white chocolate and honey. They were all splendid.
