anyone hired an ice cream trike??

I've hired one for my wedding in three weeks time - will report back!

They've been fantastic to deal with in the lead up so I can recommend them from that point of view.

Oh fab if you could that would be great!!

we are near windsor berks, is that antwhere nearby you in case i need a recommendation???

Can I hijack this thread and ask about alternatives to ice cream? I love the idea but I'm lactose intolerant and so are a handful of our guests, so it would be good to have something along those lines but that isn't going to make us all ill! I was thinking a donut bar but I haven't found anything under google. Don't really fancy a chocolate fountain, really love the idea of something a bit out-there!

Hiya

the ice cream trike has sorbet??? can you eat that??

i found a few places that do popcorn, candyfloss etc...which area are you in??

i found one called henley party hire, they do travel but not sure how far x

Ooh yes sorbet is good!! That could really work... We're in Milton Keynes anyway so I'll see what I can find on google. Whoop!

Im really interested in this idea, and from what ive googled so far isnt really expensive!! Does anyone know of any that would travel to hertfordshire?

this is the one i looked into they have a menu on the site i think xx

Amethyst, I'm getting married in Ascot so very near you!!

We were given the option of sorbets too - we've picked one of these actually as we have family that like it - so I can't see why you can't have a "sorbet" truck!

The company we've gone for is based in Devon but we paid an extra £50 in travel for them to come to Berkshire. This still seemed to work out comparably to other companies and they seemed to do more of a choice of cone/sauces/toppings. I'll root out their details and report back after the wedding!

we were quoted about £300 for unlimited ice cream for 120 people for 4 hours!!

which compared with a 'dessert' with a meal is pretty good value, plus the kids will love it!!

I also looked at an ice cream van, they were charging £85 for hire, then each ice cream was between 1.00 and 1.50 each-so there was no control over how many everyone had, it would just be a case of fingers crossed and pay at the end!!

Has anyone thought of getting an ice cream van? my dad had his 60th birthday party recently - he just approached one guy that stopped nearby and asked him if he wanted to turn up to our house on a certain date for a couple of hours - went down an absolute storm!

Just had another quote from sterling leisure its £250 for the trike, an attendant and ice cream for 130 people!!

they are based in berkshire

Can anyone recommend an ice cream trike near henley. We're having our venue at Arden cote manor in claverdon, Warwick. I'm a bit gutted as I found a really nice ice cream van but they won't allow it only a trike.

If anyone's interested in ice cream vans Annie's antics is amazing!

Thanks

We had one it was great. 3 hrs of serving time was £380 we had 5 flavours and it went down really really well.

What company was that with?

Thanks

Love this idea!
