Press Release

Hebden Bridge is a great town full of many independent shops and cafes and attracts visitors from far and wide. As a town we constantly appear in top ten lists of places to visit and this doesn't surprise me in the slightest as there is so much to offer locals and visitors alike. There is really no need to visit the concrete jungles to find that perfect gift or treat yourself to something special as it is all here in this beautiful little town nestled in a creative valley surrounded by hills, woodland and beautiful scenery - Hebden Bridge is unique. If you haven't yet visited, you must do so soon! I Heard It Through The Grapevine that something new is arriving in Hebden Bridge Saturday 2nd May and it is something that Hebden Bridge does not currently have believe it or not! Everything else is covered in this small town but THE MILK BAR is Something Else! Never mind the Starbucks! Paul and Alison Bartram believe that milkshake is the beverage of the future. They believe this unusual mix of 21st century milkshake and a dose of fifties nostaligia is just what's needed to bring a boost to cafe culture in Calderdale. So, Be Bop A Lula make sure you are in Hebden Bridge for the Grand Opening of THE MILK BAR Saturday 2nd May, 10am - there's a Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin On. First 50 people through the door can choose a free milkshake from a menu of over 100 flavours - All Shook Up! No more Summertime Blues as there are Three Steps To Heaven when you step inside THE MILK BAR to get The Sweetest Feeling when you're Half Way To Paradise with your favourite Milkshake. At the back of THE MILK BAR there is an Ice-Cream Parlour serving the best local ice-cream and real fruit smoothies if milk just ain't your thing! It's Now Or Never so Shake, Rattle and Roll your way down to Bridge Gate on 2nd May for 10am - see you there!
