We’re sorry to be posting this but due to a few incidents over the last few months, (with the most recent one being yesterday) we will no longer be able to accommodate dogs inside the Scoop.
However anyone wishing to visit with their dog is still very welcome to use the outdoor seating area.

Throwback to 2020 and peedie Reeva being absolutely thrilled with her ice cream - almost as thrilled as we are that it’s only two weeks until the Scoop opens again!

Not long to go 🍦🍰🥪

We love seeing photos of you enjoying the Scoop, particularly when they’re as cute as this! Peedie Reeva declared her sundae to be “lip smacking” - we’d have to agree with that statement. What’s your favourite?

Thanks to dad Steven for sending this and giving permission to share 📸
