Feeling Peckish? Take a Break at the Cafe!
Don’t let the fun stop when you get hungry! iceHQ has a delicious cafe open throughout their public sessions, serving up a variety of treats and beverages.

After a session on the ice, you might be craving something warm and comforting. Take a break at the cafe and enjoy hot chocolate, coffee, or tea. They also offer a selection of snacks and light meals, perfect for refuelling before getting back out on the ice.
