My favourite vegan whippy ice cream - Edit
I’m so thankful for this little van. Whenever I’m in Bristol and it’s a nice day, I check the Instagram stories of The Happy Cow Ice Cream Van and find out if they’re around Bristol and where they’re situated. They have whippy ice cream with lots of sauces and different toppings. Currently £4.50 for a cone.

Vegan ice cream heaven - Edit
The Happy Cow ice cream van is in such a convenient location that we stumbled upon it naturally.
Read moreWhen we had to make our choices it was so hard because there was so much to choose from.
The portions were huge and on reflection 2 people could have shared one ice cream.
The ice cream was delicious and I loved both versions of the toppings!

Delicious ice cream - Edit
Tried the ice cream at the LHG Vegan Fesitval. Would say that the ice cream was even better than I remembered the diary one. Wide range of toppings and sauces, the biscoff biscoff biscuit on the side too was perfect.

Whippy vegan icecream - Edit
The whippy icecream was just like I remembered the dairy version to be as a child, super super yummy.
Read moreJust vanilla flavour but with an obscene amount of sauces and toppings.
A kid and icecream lover's heaven.
Choice of cone or tube.
They were so big though none of my kids could finish theirs, I would love to see a kiddie size option.
Pros: Fully vegan, Lots of topping and sauce choices , Cone or tub
Cons: I'd love a smaller cone for kids

Delicious! - Edit
I tried their ice cream at the Bristol Vegan Fayre and it was so good! For £4.50 I got a large ice cream in a cone (you can also get it in a tub) with one sauce and one topping included. They had a large selection of sauces and toppings and I went for Biscoff sauce with salted caramel topping. Both the sauce and the topping were delicious and plentiful. It also came with a Biscoff biscuit! I was also very impressed with the flavour and texture of the ice cream itself and it was a generous portion. All around I really enjoyed it and would definitely have it again!

Amazing icecream - Edit
The whippy icecream here is super tasty. I had the biscoff sauce and the salted caramel bits. The portion is huge! Think you get slightly less if you get a cup than a cone.

Fully vegan ice cream van! - Edit
We weren’t 100% sure of opening hours so we actually got there before the van arrived and had to wait a little while, but it was worth it - super fun that it was all vegan and that you could choose from loads of toppings 😋

Visited twice! - Edit
I was so excited to find a vegan soft serve ice cream truck. The first ice cream I bought had chocolate sauce, mint chips and an Oreo. The second ice cream I had was with coffee sauce, praline and a biscoff. I had both of them in cones and it was a delicious treat on lovely afternoons.
