"World's first" ice cream drive-in at Cheshire Ice Cream Farm

An ice cream farm popular with families in Cheshire is home to the 'world's first' ice cream drive-in. The Ice Cream Farm near Tattenhall also claims to be the "world's largest ice cream parlour" - and has created the drive in for those who prefer to order from the comfort of their car.

The drive-in (rather than a drive-through) has been created at a 'scenic spot' next to the sprawling site's family play park in the midst of the Cheshire countryside near Chester. Anyone driving to the site will be able to park up next to an ordering bay, and select from a huge variety of flavours using a QR code.

The treat will then be delivered to visitors by a golf buggy where the ice creams can be enjoyed 'in the comfort of their car'. The drive in was first launched at the popular ice cream farm during the pandemic in 2020, but has now been redeveloped and relaunched for the summer with the new App system for easier ordering.

The Cheshire Farm Ice Cream business has been making ice cream for more than 30 years. The farm is now visited by more than half a million people every year, reports Cheshire Live.

Since 2015, more than £5 million has been spent on its 'complete redevelopment'. According to the attraction's website, it now holds the Guinness World Record for the largest ice cream shop in the world and biggest
