Really cute ice cream parlour in such a good location too. Ice cream was lovely, we had mango ice cream, pistachio and chocolate ice cream and cookies and cream. All of them so so good. I would definitely recommend this place if you’re passing by. Really good prices and huge menu. The milkshakes are incredible, and they give you a huge top up free of charge. The gentleman who works there is amazing and so kind.

I've just been here with my 3 year old. Although I would definitely come back with or without him. It's a great retro atmosphere but most importantly the drinks ice cream and coffee were delicious. Very nice coffee and the traditional strawberry milkshake was actually amazing and I'm not normally a milkshake fan but I'm converted with that. I would highly recommend the place for food quality delicious drinks and ice cream

Took the grand children to the milk bar and was astounded how realistic the place has been made to look. My grandchildren were fascinated with the table juke boxes. Lovely atmosphere and a friendly service. Two ice creams were really nice, unfortunately my Banana Milk Shake was the worst I have ever had. Warm, minute, and full of what tasted like saccharin. So nearly perfect.

Mr. Pip's Milk bar is a 1950s themed milk bar. There is a fantastic choice of about 20 different flavours of ice cream. There is a wide variety of milkshakes, banana splits, etc. There is also a wide choice of different styles of coffee and a good selection of tea. There is a fantastic collection of original memorabilia and Americana, including a free jukebox playing 50s & 60s music. The service is excellent and the staff are very friendly. There are free colouring pictures and crayons to keep young children amused. I have visited a few times and the atmosphere is fantastic. Fabulous place highly recommended.
