Hamilton's - Southend-on-Sea

My son and I stopped by this restaurant while taking a walk along the seafront. We have walked past it many times before, but never went in. We each had a waffle cone ice cream with 2 scoops - one chocolate and one cherry, topped with a flake. The prices were reasonable. My son couldn't finish his ice cream, so next time I'll order him a smaller size. They offer smaller cones, but my son's eyes were bigger than his stomach. We sat at an outside table enjoying the fresh air. The interior of Hamilton's was very clean and tidy, and the staff were friendly. The staff even came out to wipe down the tables, despite no one sitting there after we left. I thought it was a good idea to keep the tables clean from traffic dust and sand. We will definitely visit again to try more delicious ice cream flavors.

We have visited Hamiltons several times since discovering this hidden gem. The ice cream is top-notch and they have a variety of delicious and well-made donuts. The donuts are delightful. My daughter adores their chocolate ice cream and always finishes it all. They have a wide selection of flavors to choose from, making it a great spot for a day out. Highly recommended.

The mango, coconut, banana, vanilla, and cookies n cream flavors were all delicious and uniquely natural. As a lifelong ice cream lover, my expectations were fully met at this restaurant.

Firstly, there's a lot of ice cream parlours in Southend, but non had the variety of Hamilton's! 24 flavours made it difficult to choose, but we managed it! 1 scoop is £1.70, so great value! I had the toffee flavour and my wife had the white chocolate, both were good choices!

There are plenty of different choices at Hamilton's and it's nice to have something different than Rossi scoop ice cream! The parlour was easy to miss, but they've just refurbed with a new front. It stands out a lot more than it used to. Would recommend to anyone who wants great value ice cream.
