Greedy Goat

I got to taste a lot of the goat milk ice cream at Borough Market. I opted for one scoop of apple pie (£3) but also loved the gingerbread and pistachio. Creamy flavor but less lactose than regular ice cream. Definitely a refreshing treat.

Had pistachio and salted caramel ice cream on a cone. Texture was much denser and creamier than that of ice cream made from cows milk. Ice cream wasn’t that sweet so the flavor stuck out a bit more. Bit pricey for ice cream but so is everything else at Borough Market.

It’s hard to explain to people that I’ve developed an allergy to milk. I’m not lactose intolerant. I can’t eat any of this «lactose free» stuff, because it still makes me sick. And because this allergy has developed about 4 years ago, I know what real ice cream tastes like it. And it made me shed a tear thinking that I’d never be able to have it again. Let’s face it, soy ice cream is not the same!
Then I met the Greedy Goat. I’d been drinking goat’s milk since I discovered my allergy, and happily without reaction. So when I saw an ice cream stall with GOAT’S MILK ICE CREAM, you cannot imagine how excited I became. If I’m in the Borough Market, I have to get a scoop– no matter the temperature. I’ve tried a few flavors, but my fave is probably salted caramel.

HEALTHY AND DELICIOUS??? sign me up and everyone too!
clotted cream flavor… i cry at night because i want more.

I went back again and again today. Greedy Goat Ice Cream was a stellar find at the markets today. And the best things besides the ice cream? They encourage your greediness by blatantly offering tastes. It’s fantastic!
My favorite flavors was the lemon, lime, and basil. The ice cream wasn’t as creamy, but it didn’t matter with those flavors rocking my world. So, if you’re a person like me and you need to avoid dairy ice cream, Greedy Goat offers a delicious and highly competitive substitute. Strawberry Balsamic, Pistachio, Maple and Praline, Clotted Cream, Billi Vanilli, there is so much to choose from. So go to the market today and enjoy!

What a nice surprise it was to get a taste of Greedy Goat at the Borough Market! Delicious, unique flavors and beautiful colors! A major plus is that they also let you sample the flavors. I ended up getting the pistachio, and maple and praline — they were both tasty but not too sweet; definitely looked and tasted natural. Some of the best, most special ice cream I’ve had.
How I wish they were in the States too!

The Greedy Goat is probably open now 4 months, I can only imagine it’s gathering a cult following. Seriously their ice cream is Baaaaaahnanas. (I couldn’t help myself)
Back in NYC, my hometown, we’re not accustomed to seeing goats milk ice cream. It’s cow milk or no milk, when it comes to ice cream. (Apparently London’s experimenting with the human variety… eh) We have unknowingly discriminated against a healthy, very delicious alternative. Who knew?
If ever a better place to delve into the realm of goat milk ice cream, Greedy Goat’s the spot.
Using British goats milk, Greedy Goat has created fascinating flavors from the basic varieties like chocolate, rum raisin and strawberry, to more experimental flavors. Even the most basic of flavors were excellent. It all seems to come down to their ingredients and mastery of the recipes.
The owners appear to really be enjoying this business, which always makes for a pleasant experience. Open to feedback and more than willing to give the full scoop (pun happily intended) on goats milk and all of its suitable qualities.
The waffle cones were excellent!
On a warm day in London on holiday, walking about Borough Market, Greedy Goat was the perfect choice.
And their motto says it all, «More goat, less guilt!»
You have to try this place before the craze sets in.
