Joe Delucci’s

Been to Westfield loads of times, but never noticed this place. We saw the milkshake on offer with no queue. Being in a rush thought we had to check it out so we did and we all loved it. You could pick two different ice-​creams and they make it into a milkshake. We all chose really random flavours but it turned out really nice and on a hot day it was just the right thing to cool us down. If back in Westfield and it’s hot, will definitely come back and get milkshake from here.

OMG, the best tiramisu ice cream.
I also tasted the passion fruit flavor — very sour.
And mango which was medicro.
But there’s alot of ppl, so you have to fight your way to the counter lol.

My housemate told me that Joe Delucci’s do the best milkshake she has ever had, but that the trick was to ask for a third scoop of icecream. If you’re going to do something, do it properly. I’d consider myself something of a milkshake enthusiast (they’re up there with brownies and flapjacks; it pains me to indulge in a lesser variety when I know there are such delicious alternatives available) so I thought I’d give it a go.
Unfortunately the girl serving me looked horrified when I asked for an additional scoop. «We don’t do that» she said. «You do,» I replied, «My friend had it just the other day». Her jaw hung slackly and she just stood there; computer says no. I pushed her, saying that I would happily pay extra. She spluttered that it wouldn’t fit in the cup. It would, I said, just put in less milk. I want it thicker and stronger-​tasting. She turned sort of purple and looked like she was going to implode under the pressure. I felt as if I were watching artificial intelligence having a meltdown, like in Alien or WarGames, except with less of the intelligence.
Something had to give, so I grudgingly acquiesced and had the standard two-​scoop milkshake. It was ok. Just ok. I went home and told my flatmate as much. She was very disappointed and told me that I needed to return and demand a three-​scoop milkshake since she had had it on more than one occasion and it was divine.
A couple of weeks later, I tried again. This time the manager was there. After the identical conversation with the girl serving, the manager told me that I could have it. .. for an extra £3. I beg your pardon?! This is the base price of a single scoop of icecream in a pot, but it goes up in increments of about 50p for additional scoops, so I’d presumed that she’d charge me an extra 50p, possibly £1. Since the milkshakes already cost the better part of £4, I balked at her suggestion and cancelled my order. I never found out from my housemate how much she paid but since she’s an MA student, I can’t imagine it would be £7. Where’s the consistency? Sort it out, Joe’s!
The icecream, by the way, isn’t bad. It’s gelato so it’s obviously not as solid as the traditional British stuff, but I thought that it was a bit too soft, so much so that I had to eat it really quickly. It does taste good, but the servings are mean, and you have to pay an extra 30p for a posh cone.
It’s one to treat the kids with when you’re stuck in Westfield, but I won’t be going out of my way to pay them a visit again.

So my boyfriend as a fan of ice cream and has to try every ice cream place in London.
Overall, Joe Delucci’s was better than expected. You wouldn’t expect much from a gelato stand in the middle of a large shopping mall, but Joe Delucci’s was surprisingly good.
He tried the tiramisu, chocolate fudge, and some other chocolate based one. Prices are in the lower end, as far as gelato prices in London are. The chocolaty ones were just average (as expected), but the biggest surprise was the tiramisu gelato. It was AMAZING. It was an intense experience!
For those who have had the chance to have some tiramisu ice cream in Gelato Lupo (the most heavenly tiramisu gelato this world has seen), the one at Joe Delucci was not far behind!
He is extremely excited about his next trip to Westfield’s to have another go at the tiramisu gelato!
This place would normally get three starts, but the tiramisu gelato sets it apart, so four stars, because he has instantly become a fan of it!

Joe Delucci’s gelato is alright. Their sorbet-​types are better than their ice cream types. I really enjoy their melon gelato. The prices are a bit high (and higher than other gelato places in London which have a superior product), but the quality is good.
I enjoy stopping here sometimes when shopping at Westfield. My one complaint is that they don’t keep pistachio as a standard offering — which seems like a failing for any good gelato shop.
