Ice cream, coffee and patio furniture on Little York Street

Mill Creek Gardens opened as Orangeville's ice cream stop, serving Kawartha Dairy hard ice cream, yogurt, sherbet and frozen treats to families walking downtown.

Over the years the shop grew: an indoor café with locally roasted Baden coffee, custom ice cream cakes for birthdays and celebrations, and a showroom of Berlin Gardens recycled poly outdoor furniture — the same chairs you sit in while you finish your cone.

Today you'll find all of it in one spot beside the Mill Creek, a short walk from Broadway.
