Wonkie Ice Cream is a total game-changer for dessert lovers.
We stumbled upon this quirky little spot purely by accident (don’t you just love those happy accidents?) after lunch.
You can get to it easily—either from the Sri Weld car park or via a small lane off Lebuh Pantai, tucked between Alliance Bank and India House.
(I didn’t even know that alley had a name—Negara Pulau Pinang!)

Double Scoop Deal
FREE Coffee with Ice Cream? Yes, Please!
What first caught my eye?
The sweetest deal ever—get a FREE coffee with every double scoop.
Honestly, who could resist that?
It was the perfect reward after our sweltering lunch.
Surprise Twist: Boozy Ice Cream That Packs a Punch
Little did I know I was about to fall in love… with alcohol-infused ice cream.
Queenie, who had passed by Wonkie before, was curious and suggested we finally check it out.
So we walked in, peered into the chill cabinet, and—BAM—flavour explosion!
Wonkie specializes in adventurous combos like –
- Smoky Chocolate Whisky
- Yoghurt Roku Gin
- Rum & Raisin
Queenie suggested sampling a few before deciding.
Honestly, it was SO hard to pick.
What We Ordered: A Double Dose of Decadence
Queenie went bold with a double scoop of Dark Chocolate Honeycomb—rich, dense, and bringing all the crackly crunch drama you never knew you needed.
For those afraid it might be too sweet—don’t worry!
The caramelised sugar brings a mellow bitterness, balancing everything out.
If you love chocolate, this one will 100% steal your heart.
As for me?
After some indecisive spoon-twirling, I finally landed on
A boozy Earl Grey brownie-tasting dream paired with a nutty Jim Beam Walnut scoop!
I still can’t believe how well those flavours worked together!
