Built for Manchester's indoor venues

Manchester does warehouses, townhouses, galleries and converted industrial spaces better than anywhere, and most of its weddings happen indoors. A traditional ice cream van can't come inside. The tuk can: it fits through standard double doors, so it can serve in the middle of the room while the rain stays outside.

City-centre venues often have loading bays or time slots, so we'll coordinate our arrival with your venue team in advance.

Cheshire and further afield

Lots of Manchester couples marry just over the border in Cheshire. Some of those venues fall outside our included 50-mile radius, so we'll quote a small travel supplement when you enquire. There are no surprises on the final invoice.

The Pennine side of Greater Manchester

Rochdale, Oldham, Saddleworth and the towns along the M62 are among the closest parts of Greater Manchester to us, so venues there are an easy trip. Saddleworth's moorland barns and mill venues suit the tuk well, and travel is included.

Ice cream hire in Manchester: your questions

Is travel to Manchester included?

For most Greater Manchester venues, yes. Manchester is about 45 miles from our Leeds base. Venues beyond 50 miles, including some in Cheshire, carry a travel supplement we'll quote up front.

Can you serve inside a Manchester warehouse or city-centre venue?

Yes, that's one of the main reasons couples choose the tuk over a van. It fits through standard double doors. We'll check the route, lifts and any loading restrictions with your venue.

Do you cover Stockport, Salford and Bolton?

Yes. Most of Greater Manchester, including Salford, Stockport, Bury, Bolton, Oldham and Rochdale, is within our included travel radius. We'll confirm when you send your venue.
