About Us

All about Alex and Lloyd, the owners of Vintage Scoops and Betty’s journey to living on the Isle of Wight!

We’re Alex and Lloyd, owners of Vintage Scoops, the Isle of Wight’s vintage ice cream van company. We live on the island with our two children, Florence and Hector, and brought the Vintage Scoops business to the Isle of Wight in 2022 after falling in love with Betty, our 1973 vintage Bedford ice cream van.

We love the classic style, and had been hunting high and low for many months for a vintage van, so were over the moon when we finally found beautiful Betty! She is a very special lady and has been based in Brighton for the past 10 years, bringing joy to the south coast with her tasty treats. After buying her, and embarking on an adventure along the A27 and across to the island on the ferry, Betty is now busy exploring the Isle of Wight! She can’t wait to be invited to your special occasion or event!

To complete the Vintage Scoops family, we also have Bertie, our traditional ice cream tricycle, to keep Betty company and join in the fun! Bertie is a traditionally styled ice cream tricycle, designed and built especially for us here at Vintage Scoops, and offers a unique alternative for bookings at events across the island.

We hope to see you soon for a Glorious Taste of Summer
