Tut, tut, Tut!!

I have to apologise for the lack of posts here - promise to rectify it!! There's an age old saying about time and not enough of it and that's what it has been like throughout 2009 but I will make more of an effort to squeeze a regular post in for you all!

Speak soon with exciting Birthday news!

Hot drinks and scrummy cakes

Well folks, thanks to those of you that have been supporting our new winter menu of Illy Coffees, Hot Chocolate and Teas and our sweet treats - cupcakes, brownies, cookies and muffins. If you are rushing for a bus or train we can do take away coffees etc in a flash and you could even take a cupcake with you too to nibble on!

We now have extra seating in the back to make your experience at The Milk Bar more comfortable so bring along your family and/or friends and chill over a milkshake or hot drink whilst listening to the fifties music from our Juke Box.

Look out this next week for our Winter Warmers and Special Offers as we are introducing our HOT TOP TEN and free offers at The Milk Bar and you will not be disappointed .... we've been sampling the best hot milk shakes from our menu and they are scrummy!

See you soon xXx

Halloween Launch

Hi Milk Bar fans!

Just letting you know what is happening for half term week and Halloween. Our Halloween specials are:

GHOST TOWN - white chocolate and cream soda milkshake
WITCH'S CAULDRON - black jacks and popping candy milkshake
TRICK OR TREAT - fresh apple milkshake with a trick in the bottom of the milkshake!

Saturday 31 IOctober, Halloween, we launch our hot drinks menu with fifties inspired cupcakes and sweet treats!

We are delighted to let you know that we have found a local baker to make all our special sweet treats, and yes she really is called Kath Baker!

Kath was delighted to be given the challenge of developing a range of gorgeous fifties inspired cupcakes, brownies, muffins and cookies to compliment the wonderful array of goodies already available at The Milk Bar, Bridge Gate, Hebden Bridge.

Working closely together, we chose six of the most popular flavours from our milkshake menu to create a unique range of fifties inspired cupcakes. A cupcake is a treat, its something special; it’s a small indulgence to enjoy. If you are going to treat yourself, we say have a really good cupcake handmade locally in Hebden Bridge using quality ingredients - Kath uses organic flour, sugar and eggs at all times.

Introducing our shimmering sherbet lemon, sparkly strawberry marshmallow and Jelly Baby cupcakes alongside our melting Mint Aero, beautiful Bounty and tempting Terry’s Chocolate Orange cupcakes. Which is your favourite flavour? Whether your passion is a classic vanilla cupcake, an indulgent chocolate treat or something more fruity The Milk Bar is certain your taste buds will be tickled with our cupcake menu. We think anytime is a good time for cupcakes so make it an everyday treat, celebrate an occasion, give as a gift or have a cupcake party!

Other treats from Kath Baker at the Milk Bar include her freshly baked chocolate chip or blueberry muffins, gooey chocolate brownies or large American style cookies, stuffed full of smarties. Also look out for special seasonal goodies throughout the year - Bonfire Night is only the week after so out specials will be themed around this.

Both Kath Baker and The Milk Bar team hope that you love these sweet treats and that they make you smile as much as they did us. Happy scoffing and remember, support your local baker and try our cupcakes at The Milk Bar – we think you’ll love them and share our passion.

Any suggestions from those of you who have already experienced The Milk Bar in Hebden Bridge greatly appreciated - constructive criticism will be dealt with, abusive comments will not!

New Specials Menu Board now up and The Halloween Specials and Bonfire Specials will just be amazing.

Yorkshire Post article

Sorry it has been a bit quiet lately on this blog - just not enough hours in the day to be honest! The Milk Bar has been so busy since opening it's doors at the beginning of May that there has not been enough time to keep you posted.

Anyway, The Yorkshire Post did a fantastic article on us just recently and this is the link for you to check it out - thank you to Sharon and her photographer.
