Have you ever wondered what port and stilton flavoured ice-cream would taste like? Well at G&D’s ice-cream parlour in Oxford, you could well find out. Enter a suggestion in their people’s petition book, and if enough people vote for your flavour, the ice-cream parlour will make it.

Flavours of the past have included chocolate and chilli, lavender and honey, eggnog and Christmas pudding.

Other quirky aspects include the cow-themed décor – complete with artworks such as the ‘Moo-nalisa’ – and various playful ways of winning free (or discounted) ice-cream, from answering a trivia question to throwing a toy cow through a basketball hoop.
