About Us

Welcome to The Lolly Bug – Where Sweet Adventures Begin! 

At The Lolly Bug, we believe life is better with a little sweetness – and we’ve been sharing that joy with Aussie families, travellers, and sweet tooths for years. What started as a colourful roadside treasure in Little Hartley has now grown into three cheerful lolly shops across NSW and our very own Ice Creamery – each one packed with personality, flavour, and fun.

THE LOLLY BUG

Little Hartley

Our original and much-loved flagship store nestled on the western edge of the Blue Mountains. Known for its iconic yellow bug car out front and jam-packed lolly shelves inside, this is where the magic began. With over 2,000 varieties of local and international sweets, gifts and gourmet foods it's a nostalgic wonderland for kids and grown-ups alike.

Our Little Hartley location isn't just a lolly lover’s dream — it’s also a great break in your journey. Space to walk the dog, stretch your legs, grab a takeaway coffee and a slice, and let the kids burn off some energy in our fun playground. Whether you're after a quick stop or a relaxed visit, The Lolly Bug is a welcoming spot for the whole family.

THE LOLLY BUG

Nelson Bay

Bringing the sweet life to the coast, our Nelson Bay shop is a colourful escape just a short walk from the marina.

With wall to wall sweets, gifts and quirky finds, it’s a fun filled stop for all ages.

THE LOLLY BUG

Shoal Bay

Our Shoal Bay shop may be the smallest of the bunch, but it is bursting with charm.

It’s the perfect stop after a dip in the ocean or a stroll along the water, with just the right mix of classic favourites and quirky finds to keep your tastebuds curious.

Shoal Bay - Ice Creamery

Just next door to our Shoal Bay shop, you’ll find our Ice Creamery.

From creamy ice cream and traditional cones to loaded ice creams, milkshakes and heavenly desserts, it’s a must-visit for dessert lovers of all ages.

Why We Do It

At The Lolly Bug, we’re more than a lolly shop – we’re a memory-maker. Our mission is simple: to spread joy, spark nostalgia, and bring people together through the universal language of sweets. Whether you're making a pit stop on a road trip or planning a coastal getaway, there’s always a reason to treat yourself.

Pop in, say hi, and take home a little sweetness – we look forward to welcoming you!
