Enjoy Summer in Downtown Milton!

With temperatures climbing above 30°C, it’s the perfect time to revisit some of our favourite refreshing spots.

Last summer, we shared a few of our go-to treats for beating the heat, from ice cream and bubble tea to smoothies and iced coffee. This year, we’re back with a new round of refreshing ways to stay cool while supporting local businesses.

1. Grab a scoop or two: You can’t go wrong with ice cream on a hot summer day. With loads of fun flavours, it’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser! Check out Chocolate Sensations, Rockstar Ice Cream and Jays Ice Cream to satisfy that sweet tooth.

2. A/C + Retail Therapy: Cool off while browsing local fashion, accessories, and gifts at stores like Aiden N Co. Air-conditioned boutiques are a perfect escape from the sun, and who doesn’t love some retail therapy?

3. Milkshake Break at Troy’s Diner: Swing by Troy’s Diner for a refreshing, creamy treat and maybe grab brunch too!

4. Shady Spots: Need a quiet place to cool down? Grab a seat in the shade in front of Knox Milton Presbyterian Church or take a stroll through Victoria Park! Both offer a peaceful place perfect for people-watching or enjoying an iced drink.

5. Iced Tea Lemonades at Chudleigh’s Blossom Cafe: Choose from green peach, black mango, or strawberry hibiscus. These iced lemonades are the best thirst-quenchers for a hot summer day.
