Bellvale Farms Creamery is one of those places that instantly reminds you why simple summer traditions never get old. We came here for a refreshing treat on a cool Sunday evening, and it absolutely did not disappoint. Luckily, the weather kept the crowds manageable -- busy, but nowhere near the chaos of a hot summer afternoon. Nestled in the mountains of Warwick, NY, this creamery has such a charming, peaceful vibe. I first discovered it a few years ago after taking my nephew apple picking nearby, so I was excited to finally make my way back. The scenic drive alone is worth it. On this visit, they were serving customers inside only, but during peak summer days they also open the walk-up windows, which seems like a smart system for handling bigger crowds. Inside, the L-shaped counter setup helps keep the line moving efficiently even when there are multiple groups waiting. One thing I truly appreciated as someone with a gluten allergy was how clearly they labeled the gluten-free flavors on the menu. It made ordering stress-free and saved me from having to ask a million questions. Honestly, I wish every ice cream shop did this. Another huge bonus: they allow two flavors in a small size! I ordered the Great White Way and Calf Trax with rainbow sprinkles, and both flavors were absolutely delicious. After grabbing your ice cream, there are picnic tables outside overlooking breathtaking mountain views. It's the kind of place where you could easily sit for hours, relax, and just take in the scenery while enjoying your cone. The staff was friendly, parking was plentiful (always appreciated), and the overall experience was exactly what I hoped for. Bellvale Farms Creamery continues to live up to the hype, and I already can't wait to go back. read more

I ended up at Bellvale Farms Creamery after accidentally crashing my friend's bachelorette weekend, which honestly feels very on brand for me. I had never been here before, so I went in completely blind, but the second I got out of the car, I understood why people come here. First of all: parking on BOTH sides of the street. Say less. Nothing ruins a cute little ice cream trip faster than circling for parking while your will to live slowly leaves your body. Then there's the smell. The scent wafting through the air should honestly be studied because it had me floating toward the building like a cartoon character following a pie cooling on a windowsill. I'm not saying the aroma dragged me in against my will...but I'm also not *not* saying that. Inside, the shop is set up in an "L" shape, and they have the flavors posted both outside AND inside, which I deeply appreciated because nobody needs the chaos of 14 people trying to read one tiny menu while pretending they're ready to order. They let you sample flavors before committing, which is dangerous for someone like me because suddenly I become an ice cream sommelier. I ended up getting Bellvale Bog and Calf Trax and let me tell you: absolutely worth it. 10/10. No notes. And somehow it gets even better once you walk back outside because there are picnic tables with a view that is genuinely stunning. Like, annoyingly picturesque. The kind of view that makes you stop mid-bite and rethink your life choices. For a completely spontaneous stop, this ended up being one of the highlights of the day. I will absolutely be back, and this time intentionally. read more

I always try to stop here when I'm in Warwick in season. I think my presence has the uncanny ability to call the rain regardless of forecasts. I love that. As everyone runs inside or to their cars, I tend to relish the solitude the showers bring with a delicious cone and a beautiful view. If I lived closer, I would schedule visits on rainy days. I never get the same order twice, but I haven't had anything bad yet. It is a lot of ice cream. I try to go on an empty stomach. The lines can get crazy. Although parking can look like a doozy on busy days, surprisingly people drive as if they have sense once up there. I haven't worried about myself or my car getting hit, which was my concern when I first started visiting and saw what looked like chaos in the parking lot and along the roadway. Service is either normal or exceptional. I've never experienced anything bad nor heard complaints from other customers. read more

Waited 40 minutes on a Saturday and had low expectations. However, was very impressed! Staff is extremely friendly and let us sample a few flavors (which definitely slows the line). Ended up getting Coconut and Oreo - 2 scoops for ~$5.50 after tax. The ice cream is rich and creamy, and not too sweet. The shop is also located on top of a hill for perfect sunset views. FYI, no bathroom, only porto potties available. read more

Stopped by Bellvale Farms Creamery and it was such a nice little experience. The highlight for me was definitely the Bellvale Bog in a waffle cone--creamy dark chocolate and crunchy cone. We got single scoops in a cup also, and they were packed--definitely generous portions for what you pay. For three ice creams, it came out to around $14, which felt like a great deal. On top of that, the view is really beautiful, making it a great spot to just sit, relax, and enjoy your ice cream. Simple, satisfying, and worth the stop. read more

As if we didn't have enough sugar at the cidery, we stopped for some delicious ice cream at Bellevale Farms. This place has a great parking lot with a view overlooking the small mountains and farms. Perfect after a fall trip upstate. The view isn't the best part - the delicious ice cream takes the win. I opted for a white chocolate ice cream, which I've never had and it was absolutely delectable. Portion sizes are huge and it's super nice to sit outside and enjoy the day. I highly recommend this place, the ice cream is quality and the staff is super friendly. read more

Literally perfect. The only gripe ever is that the lines are crazy long because it's THAT good. Worth the wait. Satisfied every time.

I was so happy that they deicded to extend there day. I absolutely love this ice cream spot. Everything is amazing. There staff is always so nice. Inside it wasnt that busy since it was towards the end of the season. I was able to grab ice-cream for Thanksgiving time. I highly recommend coming here and checking them out next year. The views are also very amazing too. read more

Bellvale Farms Creamery - Pumpkin ice cream with a cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Warwick, New York

I was craving peanut butter sauce, to bring me back to a sundae from my childhood. I was also looking to cap off summer with some high end ice cream. Couple those reasons and I found myself headed 45 minutes to Bellvale, with my wife and dog along for the ride. I wish I got there during daylight to enjoy the incredible view. That will have to wait for next time. The shop is clean and bright. Service is prompt and polite. I selected the large sundae with blackberry and pumpkin ice cream, plus the peanut butter sauce. The sundae includes whipped cream, peanuts, and a cherry. Initial thoughts, I haven't had higher quality ice cream in my life. Each flavor absolutely popped in a natural way. The blackberry and peanut butter sauce were a match made in heaven. The pumpkin was the essence of autumn in a cup. Yes, I will be back! read more

The view is beautiful! We came here recommended by a friend. We came on a Sunday in mid October. There was a line which we had to wait about half hour on. There were not many ice cream flavors available. I'm not sure if it's because it's the end of the summer season or if this is all they offer. There is some seating outside where you can eat your ice cream and enjoy the view. There is a small parking area in front of the location, however, if you drive down a little bit further, there is additional parking. The ice cream was decent. It's worth it if you're in the area to stop by and enjoy the view. read more

Went here with my dad on Wednesday July 16th 2025 to get some ice cream. Got there and there was hardly no line, which was surprising. They had lots of people working there, which probably made any wait smoother. We probably only waited 5/10 minutes for someone to serve us inside. I decided on the cookie dough with gummy bears in a cup, and my dad got the bellevale bog in a cup. Server who took care of us was pleasant, and we paid via cash. Then we went outside, sat down and enjoyed the view outside. Love the valley view while eating ice cream. Ice cream tasted fresh and was enjoyable! Highly recommend bellevale farms creamery! read more

PROS: One of the best ice cream places ive been to in the area. VERY GOOD scenic view of nature around the town, nice seating area, loads of parking, staff is nice, several registers and friendly staff that will make your orders fast CONS: this is weather permitting as they only have outside seating OVERALL: This is a great place to come to if you're in the area. Especially cause it seems like they make their ice cream in house read more

There may be a wait but the line moves pretty quickly and steadily. The staff is friendly and patient as you navigate their menu and figure out the all important question of what flavor to get. All of our ice cream was amazing and what makes the visit worth while no matter what is the stunning view (especially at sunset!). I got the butter me up with brown butter ice cream and tiny coffee cake pieces and it was delicious. read more

SUUUUPER long line but really good ice cream and you can't beat the view from outside! I waited for about 1/2 hour with friends but it's great the menu is outside so unless you taste test and change your mind once you get in the building, you have plenty of time to figure out what to order. The staff was helpful and allowed us to try several different flavors. I ended up getting 1 scoop with 2 flavors- Greek style yogurt and berry sorbet. They charged extra for the sorbet which was interesting and like most places these day, additional cost for using a credit card but it was a generous scoop of ice cream and was worth it to try this very famous place! read more

I am all about going and finding homemade ice cream shops and this one is one of my favorite places near home! I really like the fact that it is a family owned business as well. I've been here quite a few times and I would recommend this place to anyone that is in the area or wanting to find a new ice cream shop. Depending on the time of year the line for the shop can be extremely long BUT waiting on the line is definitely worth the wait ! There is a parking lot but it can get full quickly, again just depending on the time of year you go! They have seasonal ice creams and you can buy pints of ice cream to take home! This cute little shop is open from April 1st - October 30th. Summer time and fall are my favorite times to go because of the view and weather while you're enjoying your ice cream! I miss this place A LOT I can't wait to go back soon ! read more

Good ice cream. Great views. Nice people. The store is small inside but the line moves quickly. They have picnic style tables outside to enjoy your frozen treats. read more

Delicious, creamy, and milky ice cream. The chocolate, cheesecake, white chocolate raspberry, and cookies and cream were all delightful. The waffle cones were great. The place was clean and the outdoor eating area provided a great view. read more

Well the view of the valley is just breathtaking in itself alone. From what I understand it's the hottest ice cream place in the area. It's the best ice cream I have ever had and it's made fresh from the farm as well. The staff is friendly and efficient and serve every customer with a smile. The price is pretty good too. read more

My parents live in Warwick and every time I go visit them, I make a mandatory pit stop at this delightful creamery. The ice cream is the BEST in the region; flavorful, creamy, and not overly sweet. The young'uns who serve the ice cream inside are nice and move quickly. Friendly service. You get the ice cream inside but the real treat is the view of the mountains outside while you're eating your ice cream! Best ambiance in all of town. read more

Bellvale Farms Creamery - Strawberry ice cream, yum! And the best view in town. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Warwick, New York

Some friends told us about this place and since we were sort of in the area we decided to give it a try. It was a 20 minute drive out of our way. We had Bellvale bog, strawberry and mango sorbet. The bekkvale bog was the best hands down. Everything was creamy and good. Not sure it was worth the $21 tho. The view tho. It was gorgeous. That in itself was worth the $21. read more

What an excellent place! If you're visiting on a nice summer night around sunset - come early! This creamery is a gem which offers a beautiful sunset view for you to enjoy your ice cream. The employees are always respectful and kind - usually high schoolers working. They also offer tubs to go. My favorite is their coffee ice cream with a waffle cone. read more

Bellvale Farms Creamery - Coffee ice cream in a waffle cone with sprinkles - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Warwick, New York

The perfect destination for a nice scenic drive over winding mountain roads that leads you to fresh delicious ice cream that taste almost like gelato while enjoying the west facing Mountain View's that offer sunset viewing options or like tonight - the Tsuchinsan Atlas comet - viewing up on the hills across the shop in the parking lot area. Fall is my favorite time for ice cream here but bring a blanket or sweater because it's slightly chilly. The great white way ice cream tastes like cheesecake. The Oreo ice cream is amazingly mixed in without tasting artificial. I brought a mini cooler bag and bought a pint of ice cream to take home as well. read more

Came here after a day of apple picking in Masker orchards. A good sidetrip especially in the company of kids & ice cream loving adults. Shocked by the long lines but it gives us time to think of what to order. There are menus posted outside & QR codes where one can scan with their phones. Ones inside store, i find the people friendly and very patient. One lady infront of us had to taste 5 flavors before she can decide her pick. i came with 3 kids, 9, 8 & 5. They too were patient with them as they pick their ice cream combination. Although i think we got 2 out of 8 flavors mixed up... we got mint chip ice cream & chocolate that we didn't order. It pays to be vigilant especially if having multiple orders Price is fair only 35 bucks for 5 double scoops. Also one can mix 2 flavors in one order. Ice cream is not too sweet, creamy & really taste fresh. Everyone in our party enjoyed their icecream treat. There are some chairs & tables available outside. The views overlooking the greenery were amazing. The ice cream & the killer views made the long wait worth it. Parking is fairly easy to find on a Sunday afternoon & porta potties available if you really need to go. read more

Amazing views, amazing ice cream, and friendly staff. Their waffles cones are SO good. Their ice cream is so creamy. We got the bog and cookies and cream and my son got vanilla with rainbow sprinkles and he was loving it. Can't remember the last time I waited in line for 45 minutes for ice cream but it was worth it! Come on a weekday for less wait. Will go back before the season ends in a few days on Oct 30th! I got to go here after sunset and during the day. You cannot see the view at night so try to come before sunset! read more

Right to the point: Good ice cream, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here or wait in the ridiculously long line for it next time. Pros: View is amazing. Ice cream is good. Service was good. Cons: Porta Potty Parking Long wait Some workers are hit or miss (scoops vary, forgets toppings, etc) read more

This is one of those places you drive out-of-the-way to get to. They are voted by some as the number two ice cream in the United States and it's easy to see why. They have been making ice cream for years and you can tell they have perfected the practice. We have driven out of the way twice to go and have ice cream here. The first time my husband got a root beer float and he really enjoyed this. They also make the root beer. I have gotten two scoops in a waffle cone both times. They make the waffle cones fresh each day, yum! The first time I tried their butter pecan and cookie dough. Their butter pecan is out of this world and the best I've ever had. It was so good that I couldn't stop thinking about it and had to get it the next time. the second visit I got the butter pecan and the special they had which was a peanut butter cup ice cream. it was literally the best peanut butter cup ice cream I've ever had and jam packed it with peanut butter cups. You also cannot beat the view of the valley well enjoying your ice cream. Sometimes the line can get along, but the staff keep things moving along and are friendly. read more

This Warwick favorite never disappoints. There's that gorgeous view over the valley, the Appalachian Trail hikers together with grandparents/ kids and baseball teams. It's an experience. The ice creams are available in rare Warwick only flavors like coconut almond chocolate, and Great White Way. And they sell an amazing banana split that I only allow my self to eat once a year after fasting for at least 24 hours. read more

Ice cream was fresh, creamy, delicious and packed full of flavor. We were a party of four and we were all overjoyed with our selections. We went at the beginning of the season and even then it was so popular that the wait in line was approximately 30 minutes long ( but will with the wait). Scoopers were getting a workout! Waffle cones, yuuuum. We'll be back to indulge some more. read more

Best Ice Cream in the Hudson Valley! Worth the wait on line which moves very quickly!

Incredible scenery particularly right around sunset. Lines are long and it's kind of a pain and the ice cream is pretty good. Not a ton of variety or new flavors. But worth the classic summertime experience. read more

Indulged in a sweet treat at Bellvale Creamery today! Parking is an open space on gravel/dirt. It can definitely get crowded making it hard to find a spot, especially during their peak times (around sunset). This goes the same for their long lines which have gone out the door and I've had to wait 30+ minutes. If you want to avoid the crowds/long lines, I would go before sunset. The staff is friendly, and the service went by relatively quick. Service rate 8/10. Inside the ice cream stand is where you place your order. It's a small plain facility with no indoor seating. There is outdoor seating with a few tables and long benches, not many though. Despite this, the view from the ice cream stand elevates the ambience since you get an amazing view of the farm and mountains. In addition, you can watch the sunset perfectly. Ambience rate 9/10. I ordered a waffle ice cream cone with 1 scoop of the Bellvale Bog which tasted very rich and yummy. Plus 1 scoop of the Calf Trax which was also delicious. I asked for edible cookie dough as a topping, and they put it in a side cup since I ordered it in a cone (in a cup, they'll put the toppings directly onto the ice cream). I didn't like this since they used to put toppings directly onto the ice cream, even if it was in a cone. This new way made it tough to eat since you're so focused on the ice cream not melting, that you forget to incorporate the topping. Food rate 8.5/10. The prices for the ice cream are very reasonable (around $8 for my order) considering the taste and amount you get. Overall, I would recommend Bellvale Creamery for anyone in/near the area because it is a nice place to enjoy good ice cream with a fantastic view! read more

Long lines are proof that this ice cream is truly transformational. There is a rich creamy texture that melts slowly. The white chocolate raspberry was a favorite- the raspberry ribbon is so fresh it's got to be house made. read more

Wow, I didn't expect the place to have such a long line. At least it gave you time to think of what you would want. They're opened from April to October so just know to go from those months. We ordered a banana split and it was really good. I can't compare it to previous orders so only going by what I currently had. The scoops were a good size. Many toppings to choose from but it comes with cherries, whipped cream and peanuts. So just pick any other toppings. We got the maple walnuts, edible cookie dough and strawberries. I don't know how one person can eat this bc I certainly couldn't. The three flavors that we ordered were vanilla, strawberry and great white way. Everything complimented each other. So tasty. I would go back hoping the lines aren't as bad and the weather is warmer. read more

Named one of the best ice cream spots in the county, it's definitely my favorite summer spot for a scoop. They're usually open from spring until fall and close during winter. They have weekly seasonal flavors (cherry, pumpkin spice) and the ice cream is so creamy and fresh. Pro tip - Because the line is so long I'll usually stock up on a couple of pints (about $10 each) so I can have ice cream all the time at home. This place has a great view of the mountains! read more

So good. Anytime we are anywhere near this area we stop here for ice cream. Always busy, need to be patient on good weather days. Ice cream is worth the wait. Plenty of parking. Great valley views. Small seating area along the valley edge. Staff is always friendly and fast. read more

Located in Warwick, NY on Rt 17A, Bellvale Creamery offers exceptionally great ice cream. The creamery is set on top of a hill overlooking a picturesque valley. As the summer season approaches the flavor offerings will grow, but right now the basic flavors and a few more exotic flavors are available. Me being a traditionalist has vanilla while my wife had Bellvale Bog (chocolate ice cream with brownie dough and fudge swirls). Since it was slightly cool today there was no line to get in. Come the warm weather expect to wait on a long line but the wait it well worth it. Oh by the way, the waffle cones are made on site and the aroma hits you pleasantly when you walk in. Try it soon! read more

Long overdue review of this amazing ice cream shop. Came up to Warwick to enjoy the views and find a farm to bring my daughter to. This place was recommended by a colleague and after a light lunch we came here. Ice cream aside the view of where this place is located is worth the trip just for that. We got a few flavors, my daughter getting strawberry and my wife got the great white way. I'm not a huge ice cream guy but wow was I blown away by the taste. Next time we venture up this way we will definitely be back to try something else. read more
