Places to eat

 MacKay’s Ice Cream

The MacKay family has been making and selling ice cream in Cochrane since 1948. Their flavours include old stand bys like chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, flavors that remind me of my childhood like cotton candy and tiger and more unusual options like baklava, durian and avocado.
