Good ice cream. Although I was a little disappointed that«chocolate dip» was not what I was expecting it to be. Where I come from, this means they scoop the ice cream into a cone, then they turn the cone upside-down into warm chocolate which then hardens around your ice cream into a chocolate shell. Sweeet. Here, it apparently means they dip the cone in chocolate and then scoop the ice cream into it, which is not nearly as exciting, and also they charge an extra 50 cents for it. Ice cream shops of Australia: get into the chocolate shell dip thing, it’s fantastic and it’ll revolutionize your business. You heard it here first!!!

Had a tasty white chocolate and raspberry thick shake today. Good ice cream and decently priced at $ 6.50. The name’s a bit misleading though; if you look on the cups it says the company is headquartered in Singapore. So it’s really Denmark-style ice cream from a Singaporean company!

28÷1÷2012 Now this is my kinda place! I was hit by the number of great flavours to choose from: mango, strawberry and belgian chocolate, just to name a few. What I’m trying to say is that Andersen’s of Denmark Ice Cream is the shiz. Screw how much cash I just gave him(I was too caught up on what I was getting), every lick was worth it. Clearly the most popular spot for ice cream with the number of people lining up, and even the presentation of their store front is amazing. It doesn’t take much to get me to eat ice cream. Just take me here, and I’m sold in a few seconds. Did you say you scream for icecream?! And you want to take me here… Let me think about it… OFCOURSE! :D

These guys do a great rum and raisin ice cream — give me that with cream and chocolate sauce, and I’m in ice cream heaven. I’m with Penny, this place feels just a little more ‘real’ than Royal Copenhagen, and the ice cream is every bit as good, quite possible better — rich, creamy, and just downright delicious. The staff seem happier, too.

I’ll admit, I have had it in my head for awhile that Andersons Of Denmark is the less commercial, less poplar version of the Royal Copenhagen across the road. They even have the same colour scheme going on. As well as a similar approach regarding the art of ice cream making, which probably has to do with the original decent of each store. However! In recent times I would have to conclude that I prefer Andersons to its Copenhagen competitor. The ice cream here is premium quality, which taste creamy, rich and delicious. It almost has a sort of zest that erupts in your mouth as you devour several tasty bites scooped onto a waffle cone. To a fault regarding the store, purchasing ice cream from here can get a little awkward as you have to stand on the footpath to be served. And so, large lines and lots of people walking along the Jetty Road strip make a collision course possible. Alas, no available seating either. Having said all this, if you are craving a sort of authentic style ice cream cone, I would have to recommend Andersons of Denmark in an instant. Yum-my!

I’m not sure why but my waffle cone was definitely not the best from here. I agree it smells so good when you walk past so I finally gave in and had to have one. My friend was with me so we both got one and as we ate the ice cream(which was average too) we got down to the cone which tasted pretty plain and was a disappointment, because it didn’t taste as good as it smells. Maybe this was just a one off or something, but the other cones with chocolate around the edge looked pretty good. I may come here again, but won’t be rushing to.

The waffle cones here are awesome, they must go through more waffle batter than Belgium. But that’s really only just the beginning, because the icecream here is amazing. Maybe I’m only giving it five stars because I had one on a veeeeeery hot day and I was going past at just the right time, but, oh my god, it was beautiful. I had a vanilla cone. Yeah, yeah, boring. Especially considering the stunning array of options. But I don’t have to justify myself to you. I wanted vanilla. And it was gooooooood. Sooooo gooooood. So do yourself a favour, and the next time it’s stupidly hot and you’re nearby, go here and get yourself some icecream. You’ll thank me.

There’s such a vast choice of ice-cream at this shop it’s almost overwhelming. The quality of the ice-cream is fairly good and is inspired by Danish recipes, but also uses Belgian chocolate. The rum and raisin ice-cream is nice and creamy and there are some fairly large raisins in it. Those wanting a healthier treat can buy low-fat yoghurt fruit blends, which are quite pleasant on a summer’s day. The freshly baked waffle cones look, smell and taste good. This is a popular ice-cream spot, so it can get busy but the staff cope with the pressure well and everyone gets served fairly quickly.

Mmmmm two words — waffle cones. They make the best ones at the bay and they keep making them throughout the day and night. The smell of fresh baking waffle is irresistible to all but the most hardened health nut or dieter. It will lure you from wherever you are in Glenelg and into its clutches. Oh yes the icecream or frozen yoghurt options are the icing on the cake, but for me what separates Andersen’s of Denmark from their many local competitiors are those fresh from the waffle maker delights. Best of all you can choose a plain cone, a choc dipped cone, or for the hardcore a choc and hundreds and thousands dipped cone. In a nutshell-summer nights!
