Heyyy there !

I enjoy a wee trip to Broughty Ferry. It is a beautiful little town 15 minutes from the city of Dundee.

Broughty Ferry is full of lovely little shops and places to wine, dine and eat Ice cream! (Mhmmm sounds yummy right!) I enjoy a visit to the most popular authentic Italian ice cream parlor Visocchi’s.

I have been going to this ice cream parlour since I was a little girl.. (funny story, every time I went to Visocchi’s with my grandparents, my grandad would drop his ice cream cone on the pavement! Haha!) I savored my ice creams it was just too good to drop. I chose the Lindt Chocolate flavor.

Visocchi’s not only serves delicious ice cream, but they have a full Italian lunch menu. The shop is an award winning family owned and run business, and has been known and loved since 1954! Jee that’s a very long time isn’t it!?  All of the ice cream recipes are traditionally created by the family. This is a true Italian Ice cream parlour that’s for sure, and its right here in Scotland!!! So worth a visit 😉 Us Scott’s will dive into a tasty ice cream no matter what the weather is!

Broughty Ferry also has a castle museum which you can learn about some of Scotlands history and also quite a cracking view of the water and the Tay Bridge from the side! (My fave)! Defiantly worth a visit if you are visiting Bonnie Scotland!

One of my favorite places to eat in “the Ferry” as we locals call it is Jessie’s kitchen..

Come on inside where it’s cosy and I will tell you about it… ❤

Atmosphere

A surprisingly hefty size (which you wouldn’t expect looking at it from the outside). It is an old fashion, but retro style cafe with a modern twist too it. (It is quite girly looking inside! Very pink)! Never mind “on Wednesdays I wear pink” on everyday these waiters 😉 and waitresses wear pink!!” I

It has a lot of old style hip memorabilia and furniture, like this music turn table ! I love this ❤

Another thing I absolutely love about this place is all the funky quotes printed on the walls!

Menu

They often have a board with specials on it as well as their full menu! OMG there is so many dishes to choose from and they are so good at catering for different dietary requirements as well!  I always say I will try something new when I get there I never do. I think the next time I go I will challenge myself to choose something different from the menu, that know I will enjoy!

Food and Cake 😛

I chose an egg sandwich on brown 😉 with a mug of homemade Tomato and Basil soup, which was served with a side salad and homemade slaw and crisps ! (I didn’t eat many crisps) This is such a filling lunch time meal! Not so adventurous, but it is so tasty and wholesome.

Everything is freshly made to order and I cant fault the flavor, quantity and quality that is served! Just great! 🙂

Their cakes.. OMG! Don’t they look amazing!

You should follow them on Instagram to see their amazing cake photos that they post on there! Not even kidding you some of them look TOO good to eat ! A very talented baker whoever it is that makes these cakes! To follow the cafes Instaaa click here ❤ I can’t say that I have tasted one because I have been trying to be good, but I may have to try one some time soon, (a fruit one) or even just a little bit of one (hehe)! They look really dense and moorish though! Please tell me what they are like if you have tried one of these masterpieces!! Haha!

Price 

The price is reasonable for the quality and quality that you receive..

I was £10 odd for my meal and a glass of OJ!

The meal I had was a deal. I chose a sandwich which comes with salad and crisps and then added a cup of homemade soup with it..

But there is literally loads of dishes to choose from and there is something for everyone!

The dishes vary in price depending on what you choose ! But reasonable cafe prices!

Staff and Service

The staff are all very pleasant and attentive! It is often very busy in the cafe, but the staff do well to attend to each and every one of their customers ! They are also very knowledgeable about the dishes on the menu and the origin of the produce ! No faults here!

Seat availability

As I said before they are more than often queued out the door because it’s pretty popular! We have managed to get a seat 2/3 times that we have gone to have lunch there so you don’t need to book, but in the height of summer we only just got a seat! They have 2/3 seating areas for diners, but get in their quick to get a space! It’s essentially like a big house inside. it’s really cool!

What else?

They have a gift shop with loads of cute little quirky things! 

We loved the flamingo pens ! (There on the top left)

They also have a garden center area where you can purchase plants and trees.. I bought some small lavender pots for my parents garden, as we grow raspberries and often lavender helps with the pollination of the raspberries! It smells amazing too !!!

After a yummy lunch at Jessie’s kitchen a bit of adventuring in Broughty Ferry seemed like a good idea..

The Beach life

I love the beach.. it’s my favorite place to be 🙂

I soak up the freedom and the sea breeze on a beach!

We got a bit of daisy chain making in as well.. it was just so pleasant to just chill out! 

Embrace life, eat food, travel to new and old places, spend time with friends, just LIVE!

Live your best life ❤

Lots of Love From
