Established: 2014. Village Britannia is neighbour to a handful of small boutiques and restaurants, with more small businesses opening all the time.
With ample parking in the plaza, you can enjoy a cone at the shop or stroll over to the nearby Sandy Beach ridge for a double whammy of cones AND Elbow River views. (There’s a secret rope swing too, but we didn’t say anything about that!)
Our Britannia shop was named one of the top 9 ice cream shops in the world by Architectural Digest for its interior design. It’s a great hang out spot.
All the ice cream we scoop here is made right here, on location.

🍦MEET A VILLAGER MONDAY🍦
Meet Kim! “It was my first month having newly moved to Calgary (2012) for my first big girl job straight out of University. It just so happened that my mentor at the time took me to my first job shadowing day and said that I would need to inspect Village Ice Cream in Victoria Park since it had opened earlier that year and was due for an inspection (I'm a health inspector). I met with the owner, Billy, and he was kind enough to walk me through the entire facility seeing as I was super super nervous. It was from that moment on, I knew it was meant to be: My first job (and still going), my first big move on my own, my first inspection, in the first year of opening for Village Ice Cream, for my favorite type of dessert, ice cream. I knew I needed to go back to try all the flavors at Village, off the clock of course. I've since tried them all and even took my now fiancé whom I met in the same year, 2012, for one of our first dates to Village and he never stops talking about it!”
Thank you for being part of the Village community, Kim! We look forward to having you on the pint👏 #villageicecream #meetavillager
