Choco Lori

Reviewed By johngarym - County Durham, United Kingdom

A Beautiful Belgian Chocolate Shop & Tea Room !!! Packed with everything in Belgian Chocolate , manufactured on site from high quality Belgian Chocolate from what I believe used to be a Victorian Butchers Shop. I believe a lot of the original Butchers Tiling has been retained and this shop is an absolute credit to the lovely lady owners. I came in with my teenage son last October as we were staying at a large hotel in Grange Over Sands for a week , on holiday- We ended up visiting Choco-Lori on 4 of the days for dairy ice cream, quite a bit of delicious Belgian Chocolates and more dairy ice cream !! Very friendly and helpful girls work here - an absolute gem of a place if you like chocolate and it really is just a Beautiful Shop!

Amazing pizzas at the weekend, take away or to sit in the yard (heaters for cooler nights) with beer from brewery or wine from wine snug. Also recommend the sharing plates from the Wine Snug, really tasty especially when followed by the unbelievably yummy cheesecake. Just a really chilled place with every one of the small businesses complimenting each other.

The Beach Hut Gallery

An artists' co-operative consortium selling work by the six members and invited artists: ceramics, glass-work, paintings, willow-work, printmaking, slate-work, wood-work and poetry.

Reviewed By Ajalawaka - England, United Kingdom

Visited this gallery with my husband today. They are just by Kent bank station. It is a co-operative of different artists so a good variation of art work to choose from. I’ve been to a few galleries and this one sits right up there. The biggest bonus was the affordability. You would be paying a lot more if they were in a bigger city no doubt. Worth the travel down!

Prom Art at Grange-over-Sands held the first event of this year on 26th July. I have been attending regularly for several years. It was great to see so many sellers and a good amount of visitors. There is so many things to see and buy, jewellery, photography, paintings, glass art, wool goods, shabby chic housey goods, woodwork, metalwork etc. etc. This is a must if you are in or around Grange-over-Sands on the last Sunday of the month between April and September. The views over the bay are spectacular. There is two very good cafes on the Prom, both with take out facilities. Access to public toilets that take contactless card payments.
