The ice cream is what people come back for at this Redcliffs dairy on Main Road, and it is the item customers mention most. They call it some of the best ice cream in Christchurch and describe the mango milkshake as one of the best they have had. Thickshakes and chocolate dips come up too. Some visitors drive over from the other side of town for a scoop and a short break by the sea at Sumner Beach.
Beyond the ice cream, it is a convenience store with a steady range of fresh fruit and flowers, and one reviewer singled out the owners as lovely.
In a suburb like Redcliffs, a dairy is often the one shop people walk to, and this one puts groceries, fresh fruit, flowers and ice cream under one roof.
