Absolutely fascinating small museum integrated with Boyes cafe top floor of store in Bridlington. Tells the history of the store and some very interesting artifacts from times gone by. Free, and extremely interesting. While you are there. Have lunch at the huge cafe. Limited menu but the steak pie is to die for. Great views over Bridlington

Good information on the development of Boyes. A bonus that they continue to serve their own food on site in their café after many department stores that have done this are no longer around.
