6. Road Trip Anyone?

There's more than enough reasons to go on a road trip these holidays. It's cold and can be kind of boring inside. Why not make a trip up to Molly May's in Manilla, then detour past the Barraba Silos on the way home.


Or head up to where it's even colder in Armidale and treat the kids to a massive feast at Neville's Store. Classic burgers, loaded fries, shakes and more!



This is one of their recent specials...Sweet Potato Fries with Chipotle Salt 🍠, Maple Bacon 🥓, Shredded Cheese 🧀, Sour Cream, Sweet Chilli Sauce 🌶, Sweet Chilli Chicken Tenders 🐔.
