How to choose safely

What to check before choosing ice cream shops in Lagos

Rankings are a starting point. For this category, these are the checks that most often separate a useful recommendation from a risky one.

  • Confirm details

    Call or WhatsApp before visiting to verify hours, address, pricing, and availability.

  • Use recent signals

    Recent reviews, fresh photos, and active contact channels are stronger trust signals than old star ratings.

  • Report problems

    • E.J ★★★★★ Hans and Rene is always a heel clicking good time. They make the best cakes in Lagos. Hands down. The creme brulee ice cream is absolutely scrumptious. The cakes and cupcakes are moist and delicious. Do yourself a favor and head to Hans and Rene now.
    • Peace A. ★★★★ Really loved the vibe, the place was super clean with great aesthetics. Tons of gelato and pastry options, and everything was pretty affordable too. Great spot to chill, chat, and treat yourself to something sweet.

    • Macaulay O. ★★★★★ The ice cream tastes really good and the ambience is so nice and cosy however it doesn't cater for a crowd so you might want to buy to go. Not so crowded and budget friendly
    • Oyinlola O. ★★★★ Their signature ice creams are great, wish we could still build our own ice cream cup though or swap out some ingredients/booze based on preference.

    • Miracle A. ★★★★ 8/10 experience. This was undoubtedly the best ice-cream I have had in Lagos, and the service was excellent. They made patient recommendations and were happy to walk me through tasting. The branding and packaging was particularly impressive for me. The only downside was that the space was small and crawling with children so I couldn’t sit in as I’d have preferred.
    • Onyinye O. ★★★★ As someone with a sweet tooth, I've always wanted to try Hans & René, but there isn't any branch near me. I was in Ikeja GRA today and decided to go try some Gelato. Pros • Smooth and creamy Gelato • Great customer service • Fairpricing 4,300 per scoop Cons • Seating space for only 8people • No pastries on the day I visited (Thursday) Overall it satisfied my craving, the strawberry cheesecake flavour is the best. I had to get two more scoops, making 4 scoops in Total.

Placed an order over 2 hours ago no follow up, the only available contact is through customer care that can only send a message to the store. Refund policy takes over 5 days to process.

    • Ola O. ★★★★ I placed my order at 9pm and was told to expect delivery by 9.19pm. I waited till 9.30pm but no delivery from Saka Tinubu. Called customer service to check on delay and was assured my order would arrive shortly. At 10pm I had to call customer service again but no one could tell me why my online order (number 774388) had still not been delivered. Was then promised a call back but now at 10.10pm there has been no call back or delivery. I usually go into the store but because of work I chose to order online well before their closing time of 10.30pm.

    • Olaide O. ★★★★ recently checked out the Ice Cream Factory in Yaba, and I really enjoyed the cozy vibe. It’s definitely a great spot to chill out. The ice cream flavors were quite good, and the service was really friendly. One thing that could make it even better, though, is having more topping options. Overall, it’s a cool spot.

    • Yk Wb ★★★★ I visited @scoopd at 33C Bishop Aboyade Cole with my guest, where we were served ice cream that tasted stale and sour, similar to spoiled milk. The texture was icy, grainy, gummy, and overly fluffy rather than smooth and creamy. I brought this concern to the attention of the staff, and a sample was provided to another customer, who confirmed that it did not taste like vanilla. Unfortunately, neither the staff nor the manager offered an apology or any assurance that the issue would be addressed or prevented in the future. Instead, the primary focus appeared to be on completing the payment, which I proceeded with. Although the amount paid was minimal, the experience was unpleasant and disappointing. I retained my receipt. While I do not usually post reviews online, I felt compelled to share this experience to raise awareness. Both the product quality and level of customer service fell below acceptable standards, indicating a need for significant improvement. Overall, it was a very poor experience.
    • Ivuoma O. ★★★★ Beautiful, affordable spot in Victoria island. The burger I ordered was fresh Ana tasty. The ice cream was also delicious. Overall it was a good experience.

It was very unfortunate to have this experience, and I definitely won’t be returning. I could literally hear the woman huffing and hissing in the back when she was asked to get the ice cream.
    • Fadekemi O. ★★★★★ Absolutely loved it. Points for the staff because i went with someone lactose sensitive and she guided us to a popsicle with no dairy. Meatpie was divine. Salted caramel needs a bit more salt. Overall icecream texture was smooth. Loved the decor, very on theme and the bathroom wall arts were interesting.
