About the Ice Cream!
Kids love to come in and choose their own ice cream flavours! We offer a variety of ice cream sizes, but Small (single serve) are a great size for the kids, especially after party food! They are available in a cup or cone (cups are less messy!).
​
Sorry, but we don’t do ice cream cakes, they’re a bit too melty!
​
DIY Vouchers
-
Vouchers are an easy way to pay for groups. You create a "voucher" for the kids to bring in and choose their flavour in a cup/cone.
-
At the end of the party, we tally-up the number of vouchers presented and you pay the total…easy! We will need to hold your credit card as security for this tab system.
-
Get creative with your voucher- make little ice cream badge/stick to pin on the kids.
-
Adult vouchers for coffee/tea/ice creams are also a good idea if you're treating adult guests too.
Housekeeping
A few rules to keep everyone happy and safe!
-
No Alcohol! We’re a family venue.
-
No Dogs! Leave pooch home no matter how small or cute.
-
No tents/marquees/gazebos, bouncy castles, pony rides, BBQ’s etc (public liability issues).

No streamers, piñata, party poppers & balloons (they’re messy & a choking hazard for small children) blowing bubbles are a fun alternative!

-
Children need constant supervision when playing.

Please tidy-up when you are finished.

We don't reserve tables or "spots", it's simply first come, first choice
