Sinclair's Ice Cream Parlour in Orkney Islands

I went there with my sister and a friend to try they cafe upstairs and the food was amazing, you could tell it was all homemade and the man that served us was so friendly and nice, keeping an eye out in case we needed anything else. The nice lady in the main shop also asked how our experience was when we left too, which I was really nice. We’ll definitely be repeat customers.

Amazing place and lovely couple running the place! Massive selection of food and drinks! White chocolate whippy is to die for

The elderly couple that work in the parlour are so kind and nice! The ice cream tastes AMAZING! Definitely go to the take away!

Excellent ice cream sundaes and waffles. Very pleasant staff serving generously portioned and presented ice creams.

You must try the many varieties of Orkney icecream - you can only get it in Orkney! A good range of sweeties too - and friendly staff.

After hearing so much about the creamy, delicious Orkney ice cream, we had to try it out. We were not disappointed. The ice cream is delightful and the servings are plentiful. There are other tempting treats to choose from as well.

Nice range of traditional Orkney ice cream, plenty of flavours and very reasonably priced. Also good selection of local confectionery too

Orkney has the best grass that make the best cows, that make the best milk and cream, that make superb, all-natural ice cream. Sinclair’s have the widest range of delicious flavours on display in a charming traditional sweet-shop.

Jar upon jar of different sweets adorn the back wall. A variety of ice creams is available, but one of the owners is also a Chocolatier!!! If you're on a diet - you'd better stay away!!! For anyone with a sweet tooth, walk into heaven!

Good value and creamy with unusual flavours making the choice difficult and prompting a quick return. Not good for my diet though.

Good range of icecreams and generous portions. Great place to visit on a sunny day. Plenty of other confectionary to choose from as well.

Cute little place, very popular, especially on a warm day. Very helpful staff. Lots of variety for treats to take home.

Huge variety of sweets and handmade chocolates. Orkney Icecream. Vintage sweets, Belgian Chocolate, best nougat ever !

Great little shop in the center of town with a new range of delish choccies in their own case. The wee cupcake shaped strawberry creams are to die for. The dark mints and orange creams are also recommended. Try the Orkney ice cream, really creamy, the Lemon Curd is lemony nice and not too sweet. Chocolate is luscious, cool and chocolicious, available in tubs and cones. Don’t miss out - a real star is the old fashioned hard candies in jars. Yummy soor plums and butterscotch plus dozens of others can be weighed out to your specification. An inexpensive treat to tuck in a handbag or rucksack. (If you like a Wethers try the old fashioned butterscotch here, so much nicer. Less sweet and a real taste of home.) There is a good selection of retro sweeties too, last time I was in I noticed cinder candy, blackjack and Nerds! There was also a good selection of diabetic/ dietetic treats.

Popped in as we walked up the main shopping street in Kirkwall. It was a nice day in April and so went in for some ice cream. Cheaper than Aberdeen and good scoop sizes. The strawberry ice cream was great. Really friendly staff too.

An easy stop for ice cream on the streets of Kirkwall. It is a pleasant little shop with lots of flavors of good tasting ice cream. Not too expensive. The staff is friendly.

a traditional ice cream / sweetie shop with an excellent range of flavoured ice cream and traditional sweets

Cute upstairs cafe sells a range of snacks and lunch foods but the best thing is the ice cream. A good selection of sundaes and other ice cream based deserts. Yum!

visited Sinclair`s in August a good selection of scoop and whippy ice cream and traditional confectionary with a friendly service

A very nice shop and café where the selection of ice creams is enormous. Very good value and friendly staff.

crema increíble selección de hielo. Mi esposa y yo disfrutamos de un tanto cerezas helado en la cafetería de la planta superior. está bien presentado, con un gran servicio, volveremos en nuestro próximo viaje a Orkney.

Este no es el mejor helado en Orkney pero vale la pena ducking en la pequeña tienda para una taza. Tuve el crujido de caramelo y todo el mundo robaba a mí así que regresé a conseguir una segunda.

Intentamos comer aquí un día, pero nos rendimos después de esperar al menos 10 minutos, para una camarera para tomar nuestro lugar de orden no estaba lleno.

No hay mucho que puedes sábado a llevar helado aparte de que sabe muy bien, es una porción decente y es una buena relación calidad-precio.

Ok I am hooked on things Sinclair and Ice Cream. But nicest of all was the kind proprietor that kept the place open after hours so we could partake of some of that fine ice cream!

Sinclair's looks outside like a sweet and take-away ice cream shop, but inside, there are some steps leading up to a bright and light first floor ice cream parlour. There are also cakes and drinks available, but the main focus is the Orkney ice cream.We chose a lemon curd and lime sundae and a toffee honeycomb sundae, which both arrived a after a short wait. They were both fantastic and nicely presented. Service was a bit mixed - the girl who came to the table to take the order was very pleasant. The sundaes arrived at the same time, being brought by two waitresses. One placed a sundae down gently on the table, whereas the other almost threw it at the table! Great value for only £5.50 each. We were there near 5pm, which is when it closed, so with the chairs being stacked on top of the tables around us, we felt inclined to rush so the staff could get off home. Would have scored higher if the service was better.
