Unfortunately the Luxury Ice Cream Company online menu is wrong. I was there on Sunday afternoon intending to have a banana split and buy my grand-daughter a Biscoff sundae but neither of these was on offer. The LICC did not respond to my email the day before our visit and their telephone number was not recognised. Having said that, the ice cream we did have was delicious.

Be prepared to gaze at the counter for quite some time- such wondrous flavours! I managed to decide on Butterkist Toffee Popcorn which was wonderfully sweet (though the bits of popcorn were a tad soggy)

Excellent ice cream! Tried carrot cake which was delicious and tasty tiramisu, as well as apple and blueberry ripple which was super refreshing and lovely vegan biscoff. You have to go 👏👏

Called in on a very sunny Sunday for an ice cream and I had the custard cream flavour in a cone. It is a little pricey but you get what you pay for. Definitely be back

We were after a sweet treat and popped in as it looked nice and pretty from the outside. The decor inside was nice too! There were plenty of gelato flavours to choose from and toppings also! I went for Malteser flavour and chocolate drops on top. It tasted delicious!! They have a good section of shakes (for example: coffee shakes, thick gelato shakes, sorbet shakes) and different options for cones/tubs. Make sure you ask for a rewards card if you live in the area. Once you've bought your tenth item, you get your eleventh small tub or cone for free. The next day, we tried another ice cream company in York called Amorino to compare. And I've got to say LICC's ice cream had much more flavour. I would definitely visit LICC again for another ice cream and even milkshake if I'm ever in York.

Popped into Licc one Saturday afternoon. It has been ages since I've been to this place. Used to visit all the time when my kids were younger. The ice cream was as devine as ever. I had 2 scoops in a tub, custard cream & biscoff and peanut butter & rolo. At £5.95 it was almost double what we used to pay, but to be fair, I did get a decent portion. Why I scored it 3 stars, well, the person serving me was actually quite rude. I was looking for change in my purse and asked how much it was, they replied (I kid you not) "it's on the board". The board was on a side wall, not in front of me, so I was not being a numpty! Was it too much effort to say those 3 words: "five, ninety five'? When I then asked if it was OK to pay by card (as I didn't have enough change), they laughed!!!! I couldn't quite believe it. So to sum up, amazing ice-cream, service not so much.

I can't comment on the ice-cream, but the cakes and tray bakes are, quite simply, out of this world delicious! There's an abundance of choice too, meaning a second visit is very much on the cards.

I have been visiting this ice cream shop since it opened 9 years ago and after my recent visit felt compelled to write a review. This used to be our favourite Ice cream shop. I loved the pretty decor and vintage china and the ice cream was perfect. The last few times we’ve visited I’ve noticed a strong smell of stale milk. We’ve all still quite enjoyed the ice cream but at £3.95 for a simple cone I’m finding it quite expensive considering the decor isn’t as appealing and the cleanliness and friendliness of staff isn’t optimum. I’d be so sad to see this shop go but I really feel this feedback needs to be considered in order to give the shop longevity.

Over some years we have delighted in calling in here, when able get to york. My wife proudly presented a card where we were nearly completing 9 stamps. Told that new owners, card not valid, needed a pink one. Start again. How petty. I gave the woman behind counter my icecream cornet back. We walked out. Never to return. £5 for a rather small cornet, glad she so petty, would have stuck in my throat. Not a treat any more. Wandered around found Roberto. 3 goodram gate. Near wall exit Wow. More ice cream, cheaper. Very good ice cream too. Worth the stroll.

Amazing ice cream all made on site! Vegan options were AMAZING! Very reasonably priced for a generous portion of ice cream. Great care taken over allergies, my daughter's nut allergy was treated with the upmost care and professionalism. They even opened new toppings so she could have some. Really impressed. Took away all the anxiety and stress. Thank you!

We love this place we have been coming for years and the ice cream is always different and on point. I had the red grapefruit and it was surprisingly good and for the kids they even had a prime flavour. If your in York and you want some ice cream go here its way better than the vendors you see around town.

Despite it being a chilly March day I wanted to try this Gelato whilst visiting York. I was not disappointed. Great flavour and superb texture. It's not as easy to find a shop selling Gelato, which I prefer, rather than ice cream. Gelato has less fat, less air and a richer flavour. There are lots of flavours, good selection of cones or tubs and plenty of toppings and sauce if you want. I tried the Biscoff flavour Gelato which was so lovely and not too sweet. Definitely would buy again. Member of staff was very helpful, professional and friendly. They do offer Vegan options.

Popped in today, for a much needed cool treat. I knew immediately it was Bubblegum for me and ordered straight away. But as you do still curious about the other eye-watering flavours, I wanted to try. The woman (I didn't catch her name - but I believe the owner *who by the way makes these all! At hours of the morning I will never see) let me continue trying. The peanut butter was the best peanut butter flavour I've had, barr none! Servings are generous, which is never, EVER a bad thing with ice cream - because there is always room for ice cream! Great service, smile inducing service, and merch that gave me some giggles that regretfully i didn't snap up. Thanks from Jennie and Pete

We visited in half term and although the shop had been decorated for Halloween it really seemed to lack characterThe staff were impatient and they didn’t accept card payment I only had limited cash on me but they didn’t have the prices displayed clearly? I asked what flavour a Halloween special was but was told it’s just a mixture it looked like all the scrapings or leftovers mushed together We chose our flavours went to sit down the table was dirty and although 2 staff members they didn’t clear up I moved the mess from table it still needed wipe but this was never attended tooI witnessed a families have ice cream go in the floor as the ice cream wasn’t pushed in the cone and a group of young boys who were spoken to very abruptly by staff members they didn’t care.I did not enjoy the ice cream either and my children didn’t enjoy theirs enough to go back. I Certainly wouldn’t rush back.

I hate to leave a negative review but feel in this case it’s necessary. I visited licc with my 12 year old and her two friends as a birthday weekend treat and was disappointed with the entire experience! I have been visiting licc for deserts for special occasions with my three daughters for over 4 years and the previous owner was always so welcoming and made every time feel special. The new owner seemed disinterested and the parlour now feels soulless and no longer has that special experience it once had, what a shame

I recently visited here for the first time in about a year and was shocked and disappointed at how much character this place has lost. I had heard management had changed but i didn't expect it to have gone down hill this much. I was served by a lovely girl but she seemed rushed off her feet due to lack of staffing on a busy hot day!

Having previously visited LICC regularly I had very high expectations of the service and products in which I was going to receive! Unfortunately to my disappointment, this business has been taken over and to say it has gone downhill is an understatement!! The customer service here is horrendous and the new boss looks like she’s never seen a smile! The lovely girls who work there are no longer able to give the great service they used to due to the pressure they seemed to be under as they are understaffed! What made LICC special and different to other shops was its little gifts and decorations which gave it its unique appearance and made it feel homely and welcoming, what is left now are empty shelves, completely ruining the character of the shop!! It is such a shame that such a popular and successful business has taken such a turn and I will not be returning again!

I was looking at the flavours and was asked if I wanted to try any, There were so many to pick from but the Apple was calling, I tried some and loved it so I had a large cone with two huge scoops, one of white chocolate and marmalade and one of the gorgeous apple of course it had to be topped with a fudge.dad had salted caramel. The price was around £8. We both really enjoyed them but I will admit, there was so much ice cream in the double, that I struggled to date it all. Next time I need to remember one scoop is enough...only problem is, what flavour to pick!

We were offered the opportunity to sample a couple before we made a decision. We both picked peanut and raspberry and very much enjoyed them.More expensive than your Mr Whippy or street ice cream seller, but the choice was brilliant, the staff were friendly and you can also stay for a sit down to enjoy your ice cream if you want to.

After a long day in Scarborough my mom and I rushed back on the train and speed walked to the Swingate and made it there at 5:45 and they were closed even though the hours said closed at 6 oclock, they weren't just cleaning up but it looked like the had been closed for a while.

Staff were super friendly. There were so many unique flavours to choose from and you can try as many as you like before you buy! We were only in York for 3 days but came here twice. We had mint aero, cherry bakewell, malteaser, mint choc chip, white chocolate smarties, raspberry and cinder toffee. Couldn't fault, absolutely delicious. Real, dairy ice cream. Previous reviews have mentioned the price. However, the price is very good considering this is freshly made and the portions are massive. I couldn't even finish mine!! Well worth a visit (or 2).

We visited York and we had to come back here to see what seasonal flavors were, they had creme egg and some mince pie and birthday cake. it was all amazing my son had a kids cone with a chocolate fox in it he loved it. Yes its not cheap but the ice cream is amazing you get lots of it and the staff are excellent.

I stopped here to get my son an ice cream. We live in York and have been a few times before. I bought a vanilla ice cream on a small waffle come with a fudge. It cost me £4.45! How can one ice cream be £4.25? We won't be visiting again.

This is a great ice cream shop - amazing flavors and eclectic decor. I had Creme Egg and Ginger Biscuit - both very good. A very friendly store with good service and large servings. Love the atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

Wonderful choice of flavours, often a new one to try along with the old favourites, like Malteser. The Stollen flavour was very good, hopefully the Ferrero Rocher flavour will still be on next week. Best flavour to date - English Trifle (with frozen jelly bits and cake in).

Last minute decision to get ice cream - fully recommend the peanut & hazelnut and chocolate cherry flavours - so good! Huge scoops and super cute decoration to look at whilst you eat.

Both times me and my partner have been to York we have come to this place and both times we have not been disappointed. The staff are excellent and attentive and are more than happy to help and let you try the flavours beforehand if you aren’t sure what you would like. There is plenty of ice cream and sorbet flavours. We opted for the Big LICC to share and we was not disappointed. Well worth the money, we would highly recommend this small place, it’s beautifully decorated inside and well worth visiting for a little treat.

Some of the best ice cream me and my boyfriend have ever had. Flavour choices are plentiful and interesting. Really enjoyed the malteaser ice cream never had anything like that before and being a big malteaser fan I thought the flavour was spot on. Good price for the quality of ice cream.

We went here as part of the Festival Taste Trail and what a gem it was! So many flavours to choose from - most very different but in a good way - and the staff helpfully let you try a little of whatever you want to help you decide which one you want to buy. Not sure whether that is helpful as it just makes the decision harder as they are all good! Will definitely be back next time we are in York and have ice cream weather. Thanks for a great taste experience!

best find in york, so many different ice cream flavours every time you go and the staff are so helpful with deciding - you even can taste them if you're not sure. Will be returning when the summer comes back.

This shop is tucked away in the centre of york and is a gem! The decor is cute and quirky, and they sell sweets and cake on top of ice cream - but the ice cream is the star. Theres 2 counters of options, and I’d definitely recommend getting different scoops of ice cream on your cone/in your tub as is an option. From classics like mint choc chip, to apple crumble or rhubarb and ginger, they’re all fab! Also has a good range of hot drinks and a few tables inside. Definitely recommend for a date!

Found this cafe on trip advisor and went to get waffles. It wasn't obvious they sold waffles and we had to ask. A waffle with any check of ice cream, cream, sauces, nuts and sprinkles. They were delicious, the flavour of the raspberry ripple ice cream was divine! Clean tables and a quiet atmosphere. Off the beaten track but worth the trip!

Banana split and Big LICC for lunch - heaven. Cute little ice-cream shop with seating inside and out, also cakes and coffee. Great service to top it off

We were served by Soufyane who was the perfect host - smart, extremely friendly and totally professional. The food (we opted for the two-course lunch) was superb: fresh ingredients, beautifully prepared and served. We had a glass of red wine which complemented the food perfectly.

Unfortunately did not have a great experience here due to mistakes that could have been avoided, we booked a table for a work celebration there was about 20 of us, we preordered based off the menu online. I had preordered penne marinara from their online menu, as I am from England I understood that this was just a tomato pasta sauce, and there is nothing on their online menu to suggest marinara is seafood, however I received a penne pasta with tomato sauce and seafood. My sister is allergic to seafood and I don’t eat it to keep her safe. I told them I didn’t order seafood penne, he became angry and shouted at me that I did, I asked to see the menu when he showed me, that’s when we all realised their online menu is different to the one in the restaurant, he brought me a menu to say marinara is seafood, but this is not mentioned on the online menu we used when we preordered, and unfortunately being English and not being Italian, marinara in England is just tomato garlic sauce not seafood like it is in Italy, my fault for not knowing marinara means seafood in Italian but the manager or owner who was serving us just began shouting at me. A female waitress apologised and moved him away from me and brought me just a tomato penne pasta said sorry again and understood what had happened and fixed the issue without an issue, clearly a mistake on both parts. After I’d eaten it the angry manager came over and asked me how my seafood pasta was sarcastically. 3 or 4 of us preordered the online menu tomato garlic bread to start, and one of us ordered a tomato garlic bread for their main. But when it arrived in the restaurant it was a plain garlic pizza bread, as their menu in their restaurant is different to the one online and doesn’t include tomato. Also despite pre ordering two of the starters were missing and had to be chased up 10 mins or so after we had all eaten our starters and the same happened again for our mains, two were missing and a side of chips which we had to chase up. We spent about £582 and just didn’t feel we had a good experience despite pre ordering and we even brought our pre order on a document with us to make sure we were organised when we got there. Food was excellent however and we had a good time. Just a shame to be shouted at in a restaurant by the manager at what clearly was a genuine mistake, as I don’t speak Italian.

3 course dinner for Restaurant week (basically it equate to a free drink with the offer). All of the food was prepared and served beautifully and tasted amazing.
