Ice cream is still as creamy as I remember back then and flavor options and other offerings have exponentially grown! Extra snacks, take home pints, and refreshing drinks are also available for purchase. Outdoor seating includes direct view of the resident animals and an added children's playground to burn off the calories while parents sit and enjoy their treats under the pergola in picnic tables or by the shaded areas on the adirondacks. Extra caution entering and leaving the lot of Vanderwende; Seashore Highway is a very busy stretch!

I was confused when I arrived because all the reviews mentioned homemade ice cream, but it had a…read moreHershey's ice cream ad out front. Upon entering, the young woman showed us 2 cases of Hershey's ice cream, and one of fresh homemade ice cream, just made in-house. She also showed me another freezer chest with pints and quarts of other homemade flavors. I was definitely all about the homemade stuff. Got two scoops, Oreo and Peach! I had checked their social media to see posts about the fresh peaches they just got for the ice cream, it was really good! They post regularly, so check that out for their latest flavors! Loved the Oreo too... that was my toddler's favorite. Huge portions! I could not finish it all. My toddler liked the pictures on the walls, especially the posters of a kitten and a giraffe eating ice cream. Cheesy but adorable touch! The young woman who helped us was so kind and sweet... explained all the flavors and said we could sample if we weren't sure. She was in the middle of talking to us when some male employee appeared, took over in an authoritarian way, with no discussion with the woman, and just gave our total, like "where's the money" all brusque and pushy. That young woman was personable and deserves 10 stars; the guy was obnoxious. I wanted to tip the young woman but they don't let you do it with c-card, and I had no cash. So bring cash for tips! I didn't see Mommom... is she fictional or real? Or a spirit watching over us? Any which way, I'm happy I stopped, and will definitely visit again! Tip-- if you want lunch or dinner, stop at the Little Grocer nextdoor. They too have great reviews!

Can't wait to visit the farm store next. I have to restrain myself from coming here every single day when I'm tired of working. Haha I think we both got the peanut butter cup ice cream on this day with different toppings. All I have to say is I'll be back because I'm not a big frozen dessert gal and I ate the whole two scoops plus toppings. A very big deal for those who know my ice cream eating habits. (Normally one or two bites and then toss it)

Simple vanilla and pineapple was super good. Then brownie fudge ice cream and Oreo ice creams were simply superb . Refreshers / drinks were average .. not my favorite. Lots of parking outside . We liked it overall. Have to try some food next time !

She told me there was nothing should could help me with and proceeded to pick up drive thru orders while I was still on the phone.

Preferences vary but I'm just not a fan of Hershey or other wholesale selling ice cream spots. That's what a lot of ice cream places are, resellers of other ice cream. NOT HERE! Lines can get wild in the summer but there is plenty of setting and they have massive farm fans above head. It's just nice to sit and enjoy every once in a while. Plus, it's always nice to see the cows and sometimes you might find calves visiting.

She never bought a cone BUT she had some serious memories from her dairy eating days. Ever since her recommendation, it's been about a decade and I still have to stop here every time we go into Rehobeth . it's located in rural areas near Milton Delaware, but it's on the way to the beach. There's always a long line and it's for a reason. I am in love with the huge scoops they gave of ice cream and cappuccino crunch is my favorite flavor. They have several locations, but this one might be the best because it's a great rest stop and it has outdoor seating areas with cute little picture opportunities with cows to enjoy your ice cream.

Both ice cream and golf tickets are sold in the front building, and the arcade is the large building in the back of the lot. There's a rotating selection of a dozen or more ice cream flavors, including seasonal items like Pumpkin Roll this past Thanksgiving. Even during fall and winter months they have a steady stream of customers. The golf course is well maintained and has cute decorations for the holidays. It is challenging enough that adults will have fun, but not too difficult for children to play also. My only complaint was that the music playing over the speakers on the golf course was very loud, and I would have appreciated it being a bit softer.

Really fun mini golf course but be prepared for BUGS!…read more My family and I loved the course itself. It was well-maintained and there was a good mix of challenging and easier holes. As I mentioned though, there were tons of bugs. We were eaten alive out there. It would be nice to see the course put out some torches or something to ward off the bugs. Since they do not have such a thing, wear bug spray if you have it.

Unfortunately, we were stuck behind the slowest group we have ever experienced. We ended up skipping a few holes and doing the last 6 holes and going back to the holes we missed once they had moved. In the time we played 6 holes, they did only 2. The course was also a little too easy and there were not many obstacles to play around. The employee who rang us up for mini golf was very nice and friendly though. I think we would've enjoyed the experience more if we weren't behind that specific group.

Thankfully Chilly Billy's isn't far off from where DQ was. I wish they had an eat in area but considering the small size of the building that used to be Laura's pretty paws it's understandable, plus I'm used to it since DQ didn't have one either. The people who served the ice cream were quite friendly and lively. While I'm sure people may complain a bit bout prices, for the high quality, delicious taste, and decent serving sizes, it's worth it. I went there at noon today and tried a birthday cake flavored ice cream on a waffle cone and a large cup of their peanut butter brownie (so good) and cookies and cream ice cream. For $18.02 it's pretty good and worth the money. Will definitely be going there more often!
