Bells Milk Bar
A retro milk bar that keeps its 1950s decor, known for malted milkshakes and soda spiders made from old recipes.
Bells Milk Bar is located in South Broken Hill. It opened in the mid-20th century and retains its 1950s colorful vinyl-upholstered tables and chairs, neon signs, jukebox and vintage posters. A small milk bar museum is tucked into the back room. Its signature drinks are malted milkshakes, ice cream sodas and soda spiders, made from traditional syrup recipes, with plenty of flavor options. It is a good place to stop for a rest after exploring the town centre, or on the way back from the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) base. Allow about half an hour.
