Delicious ice cream. Cute place for a little afternoon date. I think they could add a little more drama when they make it which is the reason for the 4 but 5 out of 5 for taste

Accidentalmente encontré este lugar ya que estaba perdido en Cardiff. Me encanta la idea. El helado tenía mucho sabor y muy suave. Tuve el helado de tarta de manzana con masa de galletas y salsa de caramelo. El personal fue excelente y servicial. Volveremos la próxima vez que esté en la ciudad.

¡Science Cream ha sido mi regalo favorito durante mucho tiempo, por lo que mi esposa y yo no podíamos esperar para reservarlos para nuestra boda! Su menú único de helado de nitrógeno líquido y su experiencia hicieron que nuestra recepción de boda fuera realmente especial. Carly y su equipo fueron maravillosos y brindaron un servicio increíble. El menú a medida y la experiencia fueron increíbles y a todos nuestros invitados les encantó el helado. Hemos tenido tantos comentarios encantadores sobre ellos y no podría recomendarlos lo suficiente. Muchas gracias por hacer que nuestro día especial sea aún más especial.

My boys were very excited to eat here. It’s quite small if you want to eat in & you can’t book so pick your moment but it’s worth it. It averages about £6 per ice cream but exciting to watch them made with liquid nitrogen in front of you. Nice bit of retail theatre! Great flavours & beautifully smooth ice cream. Friendly service too. The banana splits were so good...

Cuatro de nosotros descendimos a Science Cream mientras visitábamos Cardiff y nos apetecía un helado de postre. El menú no es extenso, pero el helado está hecho para usted utilizando nitrógeno líquido. Trabajé con nitrógeno líquido y estaba sorprendido de que el miembro del personal no estuviera usando guantes. Pero no perdió ninguna extremidad y todos disfrutamos de un excelente helado, que era muy cremoso y tenía una textura diferente a la del helado regular.

This small hidden gem is a fun place to check out. They make the ice cream with liquid nitrogen, therefor there is some cool effects while creating your ice cream.

This delightful place will not only serve you very tasty ice cream (I had the vanilla and the salted caramel/white chocolate) but will put on a show preparing it for you. The serving person in her white scientist coat dons goggles and freezes the stuff before your very eyes, in a show of whirring machinery and foggy vapors. The result is simply one of the best ice creams I've ever tasted. Highly recommended!

Had their black raven ice cream which is charcoal coconut dairy free ice cream topped with brownie bites. I thought they were tiny pieces of brownie but it was actually a cookie and it was sooooooo sweet. The ice cream was nice and creamy. My boyfriend didn't find it sweet but I find it quite sweet which means that it is just nice. Perfect for those who don't fancy ice cream that is too sweet. Quite pricey but if you go for the large, it is a lot and it is worth it.

Took my family of 4 for ice cream and hot chocolate with a Groupon voucher. Turned up to a huge queue out the door of the shop. We don't mind this but after queuing 20mins we got to front of the queue and the staff then told us they had just run out and would be closing. I mentioned my voucher was about to expire and they were really helpful and apologetic said no problem to contact Groupon who would give a refund. However I did this and Groupon would not refund because the voucher had expired. I contacted science cream directly weeks ago to see if they could help and just never even got a reply from them. Out of pocket £20. Rubbish!

This is a really interesting place for all ages. Seeing the ice cream being made is fascinating, especially for children who marvel at the 'dry ice' evaporating and the staff in white coats. The ice cream is very smooth and definitely worth trying to compare against standard ice cream. It didn't revolutionise my tastes in ice cream, but I'm glad I tried it. The venue is cute but small, so don't count on being able to sit in.

Finally visited Science Cream yesterday after years of walking past it. It is in a lovely location and is very eye catching with the liquid nitrogen. We placed our order of ice cream and hot chocolate and sat down. The service was fairly slow, we were waiting for about 15 minutes. The ice cream itself was nice and smooth but nothing particularly special. I'd definitely recommend going here once as it is an experience but it certainly isn't somewhere you'd visit for the stand out quality of their food or drinks.

This is a quirky place in a very pleasant arcade, so overall worth a visit.The premise is great, icecream made with liquid nitrogen and they even wear white coats to complete the scientific theme.There are very few seats and those that are there are somewhat wobbly. Given the popularity you are likely to end up taking away rather than eating in.When we were there they ran out of liquid nitrogen 2 hours before closing time. Not good form when this is what you do. Bit like KFC runnning out of chicken!I would recommend this as part of a visit to Cardiff

I came with friends. I liked the creativity aspect involved, I ordered a milk chocolate ice cream with oreo and peanut crumb and cookie dough. The cookie dough was still in the oven when we arrived so we had to wait a little which was okay because it was so lovely when we came. Definitely recommend the hot cookie dough as a topping. The toppings are only 25 pence extra but for the amount of ice cream you get in a small (Alot!) you would need a lot of toppings, otherwise its just the ice cream. A small is definitely more than enough for one person unless you are sharing then maybe size up. Definitely a place where you can bring children but limited seating.

Well, well......I do like ice cream in all its forms and I was fascinated to learn of Science Cream's 'interesting' method of making the stuff...so I had the opportunity to pop in on Saturday - something I'd been anticipating for ages. Sadly, I can't find enough positives to say the goods and the experience was even average! The place? Bland. The stools? Uncomfortable! The welcome (only a few of us there at the time)? Non-existent! The staff? Two members of staff in their eerily-clad white doctors coats? Both had faces like slapped daps. A good start, then! Next... the ice cream......Confused? I was. After 40 years in administration I just couldn't work out what was what, with what - all so complicated. Anyway, the ice cream? Ok (what there was of it)....glad I wasn't hungry as the portion I had was miniscule and, paying £5 for the portion, it really was a huge (well, small) disappointment. So....not a great time at Science Cream. Very pretentious. I'll give it another 12 months. Will it still be there, in the Castle Arcade? I don't think so. That's a pity. It could and should be so much better!

I've been to Science Cream a few times now, and absolutely love it, with a backbone of rotational classic flavours, they offer fantastic seasonal flavours on their menu constantly, changing the menu once a week to offer variety, be it depending on seasonal fruit, such as the apple pie flavour, or something more fitted to the occasion, for instance, the phenomenal "Christmas tree" ice cream, (Pine flavoured, with chestnut cream on top)The staff are courteous and always willing to answer questions about the process of their liquid nitrogen shenanigans which result in a smooth ice cream, with various hand made toppings too, including my personal favourite of grilled white chocolate.

Webt with a friend , as we are self proclaimed ice cream connoisseur's. Asked what makes their ice cream different and got a great explanation to build up to serving. The ice cream was incredible well executed concept and love the flavours they come up with each . Now a weekly customer

The first time I went here was July, but since then I've been coming every other weekend! The ice cream is so smooth and watching it being made with the liquid nitrogen is so interesting. I've tried a variety of flavours but my favourite was the brown butter caramel. The toppings are also crazy good, with the malt white chocolate and the peanut butter Oreo. The freak shakes are to die for as well with the marshmallow and brownie topping. Will definitely come back again!

I am a fan of Science Cream and using liquid nitrogen to make ice cream never gets old for me. However, I visited you at the Street Food Circus very recently and was disappointed. All your flavours are more or less brown ice creams. What happened to the Strawberry ice cream, where have the other flavours gone. I know you have a cherry flavour in the parlour, but what about the stall. Please debut or bring back other flavours. I'm sure the ones you have at the moment are lovely, but I'd really love to see others.

All the right ideas just done slightly wrong. It's nice for the kids to watch it all going on but for the price there's nicer places around Cardiff. What you actually get is not much. Glad we went but probably won't go back, Won't mark it down simply because it's clever, there are better around if you keep your eyes open tho.

We ordered several different flavours that just tasted like something else. The chocolate one was undoubtedly the most disappointing of all them. I wonder what they used as chocolate flavour for that... maybe something similar to the cheapest version of nesquik? That makes me think that the quality of the ingredients is so poor, that even using liquid nitrogen to reach a nice creaminess and texture is not enough. Toppings and sauces were quite terrible too. I believe they could make up good ice-cream if they change the raw materials used. Anyway, other people seem to like this place, so maybe our taste buds have just become atrophied.

Really not worth the wait. The ice cream fell onto my head while I was walking to the restrooms, such a bizarre experience. Would recommend to people I don't like.

Had a freak shake from these guys on Friday as they were at the street food circus. Best milkshake ever! It was so delicious but oh so filling. I chose the one that had peanut butter and jelly sauce, ice cream, a whole brownie and toasted marshmallow on top. Absolutely delicious and worth the £5! Will definitely be back!

The ice cream is spectacular and it's better than your average ice cream parlour because they make the ice cream in front of you with nitrogen!

In this ice cream parlour, you choose the ice cream you want and they do it in a couple of minutes, right in front of you, using Merlin-like techniques. And believe me: the ice cream is delicious and very, very soft. A truly new experience to repeat.

Me and my friends really fancied some ice cream and had heard about this shop in a Cardiff food brochure. The concept is really unique, with staff dressed in lab coats and using liquid nitrogen to freeze the ice cream right in front of you. The shop was empty but it still look quite a while for three of the same ice creams to be made so I can imagine the queues get long on sunny days! We opted for Brown butter flavour with salted caramel sauce and peanut brittle. The ice cream was almost £4 for a small but well worth the money as it was delicious!

The combinations of ice cream and topping you can have is amazing! My personal fav is French Vanilla, toasted marshmallows, honeycomb and raspberry sauce. I can't get enough of them

A booking for 4 had been made following our visit to take the 'Pobol y Cwm ' set tour. We were greeted on our arrival snd taken to our table. We were given time to peruse the menu and ordered a bottle of delicious house wine. We all gave our choices from the menu and we were waited on and looked after very well. The food was delicious and will definitely return.

I recently visited this café which not only served a variety of breakfast and brunch options but also offered what I can confidently say was the best coffee I had during my time in Cardiff. I opted for a black Americano, but it was clear they took their coffee seriously, with an evident dedication to quality that shone through in every sip. The beans were expertly brewed, resulting in a rich, well-balanced flavour profile that highlighted the nuances of the coffee without being overshadowed by bitterness. It’s refreshing to find a place that genuinely cares about the craft of coffee-making. The atmosphere of the café complemented the experience beautifully. With its vintage chairs, wall-mounted artwork that added an artistic touch, and an overall relaxed décor, the space had a distinct hipster vibe that made it inviting. It’s the perfect setting for enjoying a good coffee, whether you’re looking to engage in conversation with friends or simply unwind with a book. If you’re in Cardiff and searching for a place that values quality coffee in a charming environment, this café is definitely worth a visit.
