Grabbed a few cheeky coffees, everything was brilliant. If you get a chance stay at their B & B (Storekeeper’s Cottage). It’s a great experience. Thank you for your hospitality

Great Milkbar & Lolly Shop! Worth stopping in if you’re in the area or passing through. Milkshakes & ice cream were nice. Reasonably priced food. Clean & tidy with plenty of seating inside & out. Service with a smile!

I pulled up hear 3 years ago and they had great coffee and excellent service then, come back last Friday 2/5 and on my way home on Monday 5/5. The service and food and coffee are still the best I’ve ever had.

As soon as you enter this store, you are treated like an old friend! Really surprised to see their extensive range of confectionery, especially the British lines and their burgers are huge! We had the works burgers and had to get some cutlery to eat them with because we couldn't get our mouth around it,. This is definitely a place not to miss.
