Location: At the heart of wonderful Barkingside High Street
Atmosphere: At times can be a bit noisy due to kids as it can get a bit busy inside, it is not very big so not much space to sit down, but it doesn't matter as the ice cream is so good.
Food: The ice cream here is amazing, I find it really difficult to pick a flavour, my favorite ice cream flavour has to be the honeycomb, it is amazing!! So so tasty! They do take away and also do tubs of ice cream. I normally get the tubs for my house. They also do chocolates as Daniel has said, but I also have never tried them, they look really good though. They also do paninis and coffee.
Price: good price for great ice cream!
Evaluation: Fantastic this is my local :) -

Rossi Brothers is great. Right in the heart of Barkingside's charity shops and shoe shops sits...... an ice cream shop. How an Ice Cream shop came to land in the High Street we'll never know - but I think we're all glad it did.
The annoying thing is that I only think about once every three years "ooh, maybe I'll go to Rossi's" when in reality the place is so cool and different that it should be visited all the time, perhaps even daily. Or hourly?. In many ways - it's pretty standard. They have a typical selection of ice creams and scones, but it's the mere fact that an ice cream place sits in Barkingside that makes it most impressive.
Another reason I have affection for it is simply because it's a part of my youth. When me and my friends used to hang out in the park, Rossi's was often on the menu. These days I feel that people picking up a Mcdonalds Mcflurry are missing out.
They also sell a selection of chocolates - although I've never tried them. I don't mean they sell Mars Bars, but the real stuff - you know, little displays with weird names that cost a little more. In fact, maybe I should try them out.
Anyways; if you're a local then you probably know Rossi Brothers. But like me, you probably haven't been there in way too long. Go check them out. I'd imagine an Ice Cream shop in Barkingside during all this financial turmoil, to say nothing of this bad weather, might be struggling. So go pick up a cone.
(Note: 'might be struggling' is merely a generalisation about small businesses during the current financial climate, I'm sure Rossi are doing fine!) -

Very expensive. A family of 5 cost me nearly £20! and that wasn't because we ordered large ones either! There's an older woman who seems to have a face like a smacked bottom and NEVER smiles. it's almost as if you are putting her out by being there. Nice-ish icecreams but nothing special. And they don't have sauces or crushed nuts for the 99 ice creams.

Pros This is a really famous Ice cream parlour in Barkingside and they also have vans going out that sell ice cream in malls and on High streets. The interior is quite basic but pleasant. It has limited but nice seating where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream or coffee, whatever you choose. The do have numerous flavours of ice creams and seeing them is a pure delight. Their ice cream used to be really good but of recent there has been a drop in quality but I would still recommend it. It is worth a try. The service is quite good and they do give you generous portions albeit I find them slightly expensive.
Cons None given.
