ICE CREAM, COFFEE
& CAKE BY THE SEA
The Dip Kiosk
This old fashioned beach kiosk has been trading for almost a century! So it’s only right that we serve the finest hand made farmhouse ice cream, quality artisan coffee, cakes, sandwiches, panini’s, milkshakes, scoopshakes & more!
All made with love on the Suffolk Coast using quality local produce from independent suppliers and Farm shops… which means we’re also kinder to the planet.
