I went there an hour before closing and even though it was one of their busiest days, I did not expect everything to be sold out. This shows how popular and high-quality their ice cream is. They specialize in artisanal, handmade ice cream. The owner, Simba, is a friendly man who treats every customer with love and respect. He prepares all the ice cream by hand which is noticeable in the amazing taste of the dozens of flavors. Behind the shop, there is a nice terrace where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream in peace. The garden has been transformed into a small park-like area with several picnic tables and benches. This really lifts your mood and allows you to relax while savoring your ice cream. Over the years, the ice cream has become more expensive, but the quality makes up for it. This is understandable because of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and inflation but even then the ice cream is worth the price. Furthermore, it is located on the main street running through the town, which adds to its popularity. If you are driving, cycling or walking on Brugstraat, you cannot miss it. Simba’s IJs is a welcoming establishment where the handmade ice cream and friendly service make every visit worth your time. Even though the ice cream has become pricier, the top-notch quality and relaxing terrace make up for it. Its perfect location makes it an easy and inviting place to stop for a treat.
