Maybe I got too excited - Edit
Firstly the posted hours are flexible, so just be aware of that! Haha. They weren't open when I went but was able to try the Mr. Whippy next door at the Ice Café. They only have vanilla, no toppings on offer but it did come with a flake:) It seems like they used to have more options, gelatos, etc judging from other reviews but when I was there the only other ice cream options were sorbets - which always annoys me for some reason.
Read moreI tried quite a few soft serve ice creams on my trip to London and Brighton and this was my least favorite. The texture was super, super whipped and light - almost like whipped cream. Which is fine just I prefer a denser texture I guess. I'm not British, so maybe this is what Mr. Whippy is supposed to be like!
Pros: Chance to have a Mr whippy on the beach
Cons: Not many options (Ice cream-wise), Staff a little snippy
vegansheep
You must have been unlucky as I was there today and there were about 10 options, which were about 5 ice creams and 5 sorbets. Maybe they increase options in summer

Most certainly worth a try - vegan soft serve which is not too sweet! Also option for a flake too.

Vegan whippy.. Need I say more! - Edit
So excited to try this and I was not disappointed! Amazing! The V360 cafe was actually closed but they sell the whippy at the cafe next door! Also a sign saying anything can be made plant based 😍

Almost perfect! - Edit
I’ve missed a mr whippy and this is pretty good! A non-vegan could tell it was but I enjoyed it just the same. Next to someone has to perfect the vegan flake…

Very good, with a potential to be great - Edit
Interesting that it is stated here that their vegan Whippy is sold at Ice cafe next door when this shop is closed. We’ve tried the vegan Whippy from this shop as well as the Ice cafe, but they tasted different! One comment for V360 is that the girl who served us used her bare hand to touch the cone, I was NOT comfortable with that.. so I asked her to make it in a cup instead. Overall, I would say the Whippy and coffee here are average, but like it that the place is fully plant-based. :)

Vegan Mr Whippy - Edit
Finally got to try v360 Mr Whippy at the Ice shop next door. I have attempted multiple times over the last year to visit v360 when it's open. Looks like their opening times on Google after different from what they have stated on social media, which explains why it's been closed every time I've visited and expected them to be open. Nonetheless, I'm glad their ice cream is available next door. The Whippy is great, not sure if there are many other venues locally that serve a non-dairy Mr Whippy.

Closed - Edit
This place was closed when we arrived which was on a Monday but they had a sign saying to go next door to a place called Ice Cafe and they had vegan soft serve! So don’t be disappointed if they are closed as you can still enjoy :)

Great place - Edit
I had the vegan hotdog with cheese, which was nice. I wasn't sure which cheese they used but it had really melted over the hotdog and was yummy!
Read moreThe main attraction however was the vegan whippy. It tasted amazing! I had it with a chocolate stick, which is solid chocolate, not a flake style.
It's not operating out of its usual stall at the moment (September 19), it's just a few down in another little cafe called the ice place I think. Also, look for the basketball court, once you're there, you will see it. (Location on here has it marked further along).
Pros: Good vegan options for fast food, and the vegan, Whippy is a must!!
Cons: A little expensive for what it is, maybe because, It's by the sea. Hotdog was £5 or £6 with cheese. , Large vegan whippy is £4.
