"Andy Harris and Katie Millard’s treasure trove of a grocer has many good things to take away — pastries and breads from Brentford’s Rye by the Water, and lunch specials like ratatouille, three bean and bonito salad, or hortakopita. But the main draw, come summer or winter, is the soft serve, with a rotating cast of flavours — mostly fruit, but sometimes spiced with saffron or clean with vanilla — that gives Ealing an ice cream option to match anything in the city." - James Hansen
"Ice cream is cold. Before the Captain Obvious memes roll in, the obviousness is the point: the very best ice cream makers know that temperature is a modulator of flavour, a factor to balance when composing a dish. At the Ealing Grocer, a newish, wondrous food store from Andy Harris and Katie Millard, soft serve summer is just beginning, with freeze adding a jolt to rich vanilla, and apricots and strawberries introduced to pale custards. Right now, it’s saffron." - Emma Hughes
"At the Ealing Grocer, a wondrous food store from Andy Harris and Katie Millard, soft serve summer is on its second coming, with freeze adding a jolt to rich vanilla, and apricots and strawberries introduced to pale custards, or sorbets made with mangoes and lemons." - James Hansen
"A classic vanilla soft serve distinguished by creamy, warmly rounded vanilla and a temperature profile that accentuates rather than mutes flavour — a reminder that cold is a vital part of ice cream's appeal." - Hester van Hensbergen
"Cited as a local provisioner that helped its neighbourhood through the pandemic, this shop kept essential supplies available and provided continuity for regulars when other options were limited." - Adam Coghlan
