Stopped in for a Madagascar vanilla double folded milkshake, and my friend got two scoops of blueberry in a cup. Came out to nearly $20. I could've gotten the same thing at Dairy Queen... Just a plain vanilla, lumpy milkshake. Literally nothing special about it. I was quite disappointed. That being said, it's a nice little place, it smells wonderful, the people were very friendly. But in terms of ice cream... honestly you're just as good going to someplace like Dairy Queen. $20? For a milkshake and two scoops? That's just insulting... read more

It's a hot day in May and after getting my nails done, I decided to pop in to Blue Cow for a treat. I saw the menu board and saw "banana pudding". I could not resist so I asked for a taste. The server was so nice and even told me that banana pudding is his favorite! It was soooo good! I highly recommend that flavor and the triple berry crunch ice cream that my friend got. The place is wonderfully styled and clean. Enjoy! read more

My wife and I came here off the late night. We wanted to end our day on a high note, and figured why not go on a ice cream date? We came in and the ambiance was super nice and spacious. Very modern and the employees were super nice. We sampled atleast 3 flavors, and it was AMAZING!!! SO FRESH AND DELICIOUS!!! Definitely recommending this to people if-and-when they ask for Places to Visit in Richmond. Shoooootttt.. that icecream was--LIKE THAT (10 out of 10). We wanted more. I ended up getting Banana Puddin' & she got Sea Salt Brickle with Caramel Swirl. One taste and we were in love! Gotta go back. Wish we could have bought a pint or icecream bucket to go. My goodness! read more

Creamy and authentic ice cream!! Local favorite!! The lavender ice cream was amazing!

The best ice cream in all of RVA. A favorite spot for my daughter and I to stop after a long school day.

Yummy ice cream and super friendly staff. I decided to stop in on a sunny, mid 50's day that was just screaming for ice cream. The staff greeted each customer and offered samples. I opted for the sea salt brickle which was super creamy with caramelly pieces it it. The ice cream was delicious and definitely hit the spot. I will be a frequent customer, even on cold days :). read more

I love ice cream, so it's exciting to find a new spit to try. Blue Cow opened awhile ago in the Villages, and we finally made it in. Local to VA, with approximately 5 shops, they call themselves "artisan ice cream" with unique flavors. Staff will let you taste to help you decide. Team behind the counter were friendly and efficient, not extra special, but definitely better than a lot of places today. Icecream was rich and creamy, and portions were a good size. There are 5 size options - mini, single, double, waffle and a flight. As well as floats, shakes, malts AND hand packed pints to go. There are gluten free cones and a non dairy icecream option too! The store is roomy, bright and clean with multiple tables so you can eat on site. I had banana pudding and A tried snickerdoodle, both were tasty. We will definitely be back to check out some other flavors +1 Service +1 Food~Taste/flavor/quality +1 Presentation +1 Atmosphere/vibe +1 Value read more

I'm so sorry but I am not feeling it. There's better store bought ice cream. I got the coffee chip. It tastes fine but the texture is so bland and the chocolate chips seemed cheap. There's just way better places around here for ice cream read more

Great service and flavors. Really enjoyed everything about it. Highly recommend going in town.

Life-changing ice cream, truly, I will be thinking about this ice cream for a long time. Tried the Goat Cheese & Blueberry and Sea Salt Brickle samples, loved both, and got one scoop of each. Soooooo creamy, rich, and SUPER flavorful (not like those ice cream shops where you can barely taste the flavor) - I love goat cheese and trying it in the ice cream was such a new experience and I loved it. The Sea Salt Brickle might be my new favorite ice cream ever. Don't miss this place and definitely try some new different flavors. read more

I've had Blue Cow in Roanoke and so was excited to see a location when we stopped nearby for lunch! They feature both classic flavors as well as some inventive flavors, so it's nice to try a variety. the ice cream is deliciously creamy and the interior was super cute and very clean. The staff were generally nice, but the person helping us was kind of disinterested, and my scoop of cookie dough was teeny tiny lol. I would prob skip the cookie dough flavor as it didn't have a ton of chunks, and the ones that were there tasted stale. But the chocolate cow patty (?) and chocolate raspberry swirl were both delicious. read more

Blue Cow Ice Cream - Left is the two scoops, right is the single scoop. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Solid ice cream products served in a bright clean and roomy shoppe. Located in a busy strip mall with plenty of parking available. The service is on par and pleasant (not above and beyond). The ice cream is not premium but very tasty and the prices do provide a good value. Ice cream cones, cups and sundaes are available with various toppings. There's a good amount of tables and seating which is nice especially in the summer when you may want to consume your ice cream in the air conditioning. There's a lot of different flavors which do change periodically. Pints are available if you'd like to bring some ice cream home. I like that they have a community bulletin board for people to share information. I wouldn't go out of my way for this ice cream but if I was in the area and craved ice cream I surely would return. read more

Delicious! My friend decided to come and finally check out this location after having dinner over at Toast. I'm so glad that she suggested it because I freaking love ice cream and it has a lot of flavors to choose from. The featured flavor was Strawberry Balsalmic - which was FANTASTIC. However, my heart was calling for their raspberry chocolate. I got one scoop in a cone. No regerts! I ate the whole thing - hahaha. But seriously, the staff were great and frinedly. The location is easy with plenty of parking spaces. Place is clean and flavors are kick ass. Definitely a must try spot. I will def be a returning customer here (especially for the summer and with my kiddos!). read more

Blue Cow is a great addition to the Village Shopping Center. I find myself visiting there after dinner at one of the few restaurants in the strip, a nail appointment, or a trip to Publix. There are plenty of options to sample, and the staff is attentive. Parking is easy, as it's a huge lot shared with the whole center. An added bonus is that some of the flavors are even Kosher certified. I typically get any chocolate or coffee - related flavor, and they never disappoint. Pricing is fair, and there a lots of sizing and cone options. read more

the ice cream itself is really good and great flavor but it's too sweet to my taste. I couldn't finish in the end because the amount of sugar I was consuming. read more

Good ice cream and good service. I like the unique flavors and the ice cream is always at the right temperature and consistency. Easy to eat. They have the best cereal milk ice cream. The prices are reasonable and the portions are good. read more

Stopped in after dinner - cute ice cream parlor located in a busy shopping center (but plenty of parking). They have plenty of flavors and several vegan/gluten free options. We had the pumpkin and the spicy chocolate. Both were great! Prices seemed fairly reasonable for the portion size. read more

Scoopers were so extremely kind and helpful. As the customer, sampling flavors is such a pleasure and pain. You want to be able to try them but also there is a inner thing to not bother them too much. I tried 4 flavors and they just kept saying "of course!". It made me feel welcomed and it felt like it was an honor to serve me. Got their blue cow classic (chocolate, Oreos and butterfingers oh my) rich and delicious. Their strawberry balsamic was also delicious. The place is bright and clean. I will be back. read more

Do you like really creamy ice cream? Ice cream that tastes like Ice Cream? Blue Cow's ice cream is so creamy, I struggle to get ice cream from anywhere else lately. It doesn't help that they have Banana Puddin ice cream, which is Nilla Wafer and Banana Pudding, but in a frozen creamy treat. I freely admit I am here ordering this Banana Puddin, more often than I should be, it's just that good. My kids love the birthday cake flavor and my husband enjoys the Blue Cow Patty. I honestly have yet to try any other flavors yet because the Banana Puddin just crushes the game for me. I am praying, hoping and wishing they have a Pumpkin Spice flavor in the Fall for us basic b*tches. Take all of my money, Blue Cow. read more

Randomly stumbled upon this ice cream place while I was in the area and realized it was a "chain" with a new location in Richmond! It was popping on a Friday night so I decided to check it out. As soon as I walked in the smell of waffle cones greeted me immediately! The variety of flavors were pretty broad with several gluten free options as well. I'm usually a peanut butter or salted caramel kind of girl but I was really craving chocolate this entire day. I got the Blue Cow Patty which was a dark chocolate ice cream base mixed with butterfingers, oreos, and dark chocolate chips. I loved the combo and the dark chocolate flavors weren't too sweet aka just right! The ice cream texture was definitely on parr with other small batch ice cream shops. The waffle cone was also pretty solid and crispy but I think I just got a bad one cause one isolated section was soggy. They do allow sampling but unfortunately don't allow split flavors. The Peanut Butter Fudge and Sea Salt Brickle were both solid just based on my quick taste test! The shop itself was spacious with lots of tables/chairs. The staff were all pretty friendly with warm smiles! It is located in the village mall so lots of parking available. Would come back to try their other flavors! read more

A new ice cream spot to try out! I got the pumpkin and it tasted pretty good plus it was a really nice sized portion for a single scoop. My husband got the coffee milkshake. He thought it was too strong flavored but good enough. I gave them 4 stars only because of the high price. It's a bit expensive.. spent $15 for the two items. Will we be back? Probably because we love ice cream lol read more

You know it's good when it's bumpin' on a Sunday night ! Steady stream of grandparents & kids, university students, and people of all ages in their pj's (myself included). A mix of rotating and "classic" flavors means there is definitely something for you here. I had the snickerdoodle (cinnamon sweet with chewy cookie) & cookies and cream in a waffle cone. Was it too much ? Yes. Did I devour it anyway ? Absolutely. Love that we have a local ice cream spot in our neighborhood now!! *Price was not a deal, per SE, but its in line with other small batch shops read more

Woker dreads are hanging low no hat on didn't wash hands from coming from the back dreads was almost touching ice cream pants was hanging low bad experience read more

Great ice cream and the staff are amazing 10/10 ice cream shop! My favorite flavor is peanut butter

Our family of four went here as we wanted to try a new ice cream spot. The ice cream was only okay but the scoops were a reasonable size and price. None of us really enjoyed the ice cream but there was seating to enjoy what you bought. The selection was decent but none of the flavors excited us. The ice creams we did settle on were all too salty and we never had ice cream that was too salty before. My 7 year old son got chocolate ice cream and said he didn't like it after a couple of bites which is unusual because chocolate is his go-to flavor. They are a homemade ice cream shop and I'm sure have a loyal following. We just didn't find any flavors that we liked that day. read more

Great ice cream, friendly service, wish their flavor selection was a little better. Convenient location, easy to park and get into and out of. read more

Really liked their ice cream but I took my kid out tonight for dessert and had a poor experience at this location unfortunately. The customer service was very disappointing. The girl that was serving us had a very sour face and attitude for no reason. We felt rushed when the store wasn't even busy and like a burden when asking to sample new flavors. Very poor experience. Bad customer service absolutely ruins a good product especially when we were there to enjoy an occasion. I don't patronize establishments that don't put effort into their customer service and product. There are many other ice cream spots in Richmond I've worked in customer service for many years, no excuse read more

We all loved our ice cream (and gluten free options!) and we will definitely be back. What a sweet spot for the neighborhood!

Food is always fresh customer service is awesome will return to eat again. The store was clean and drive in was packed with cars

The product is great. They have pre packed ice cream too. They open at noon (or later), not 11.

Lots of interesting flavors, delicious, good portion size, and fair prices. Lots of gluten free flavors and a gluten free waffle cone option as well. Couldn't ask for anything more. Great place, would come again. read more
