    Fried pickles and popcorn chicken to go!
    Julia C.

    I always stop if it's open and I'm driving by! One of the few places left that has flavor burst ice cream *my favorite* Today was the first time I decided to order food! I ordered a baby blue goo in a cup, an order of fried pickles and an order of popcorn chicken. Girl gave me a buzzer and my ice cream as I ordered mine to go. Took probably 5-10 minutes which I ate my ice cream in that time waiting for my food and total was $14. Came out piping hot and they gave me a bunch of blue cheese and buffalo sauce which was great. Fried pickles were spears so definitely had to wait for those to cool down and popcorn chicken was yummy. Will always try to be back when I can! Tip: baby is a GOOD size the large cone is like a foot tall soft serve no joke!

    Love this place. I always remember stopping here with my mom on our way to NYC when I was a teenager. It's a perfect icecream/food stop on Route 20. Over the years they have gotten better. They added lots of outdoor seating and expanded the menu. The huge "Italian ice" sign caught my attention and made me stop. They have cherry, blue raspberry and lemon. A few years back my Ma and I were on our way to NYC to visit my grandma and they were having their annual Car Cruise-In. It's usually around the second week of May. We stopped and checked out all of the old fashioned cars. It was pretty cool! Friendly staff, nice sized menu, and the best soft serve in a 30 mile radius. This place is bomb. Definitely worth a stop if you're driving by.

    Your typical small-town roadside ice cream and fried food stand. We stopped by for a quick treat on the way out of town after Baseball HOF weekend. What a great find! We had soft serve ice cream sundaes...hot fudge and a turtle. Both were excellent and very filling. Great way to cool off after a hot day in the sun.

    All the requirements of a great roadside stand are met here. The atmosphere is just right: a tidy little building with that great, mid-century angled glass front; yellow bug repellent lights under the eaves; picnic tables under umbrellas or the shade of a large tree. This place is spotless. The concrete walk around the building is painted red and looks freshly scrubbed. The building is blinding white. The picnic tables are white and were positively glowing, not a single stain or smear. Pretty impressive. And the staff were very friendly, too. And the food is pretty darn good, too. We had hot dogs in split-top hot dog buns (the kind that have "bread," not "crust" sides), french fries and chocolate malteds. All were excellent. Some advice: Ask to have the bun grilled; this is not done automatically and is vital to the experience. Get the shake extra thick. We enjoyed this place on a perfect, sunny summer day at a picnic table under a tree, overlooking beautiful farmland. It doesn't get much better than that. They were advertising a cruise night for Saturday night, I think. Would probably be pretty cool to see some old cars ringing this place, but it stands on its own on the good food and atmosphere.

    Beautiful place to have your shake/ice cream!!

    What a lovely place to take a break. We discovered this place while we were driving from Syracuse to CT via the scenic route. Great ice cream great shakes!! Outdoors looking at the rolling green fields under the shady willow tree!! Wow!! The only thing missing is a pond or a stream. Anyone passing by ABSOLUTELY MUST STOP here!!

    One thing that immediately stood out was how confusing the ordering process was. Like most ice…read morecream stands, there are menu boards posted outside, so we naturally assumed we would order from those. Instead, the family in front of us was handed a separate paper menu from inside. We had no idea that was how ordering worked, so I had to excuse myself past the people in line just to ask for one. It would have been much more customer-friendly if menus were readily available or if there was a sign letting customers know to ask for one. I was very disappointed with my visit. I ordered a hard vanilla ice cream sundae with fudge, peanut butter, and marshmallow, and it was nowhere near worth the $9 I paid. The vanilla ice cream tasted freezer-burned, with a dry, icy texture and a noticeable "crunch" that wasn't from nuts or any toppings, but from the ice crystals in the ice cream itself. It had a stale taste, and the texture made it seem like it had been sitting in the freezer too long. On top of that, there were barely any toppings. The fudge, peanut butter, and marshmallow were so sparse that I honestly wouldn't even consider it a real sundae. For the price, I expected fresh ice cream and generous toppings. Instead, I got what felt like a cup of old ice cream with just a small amount of topping. I don't mind paying premium prices when the quality matches, but this experience was very disappointing, and I wouldn't order it again. Also, there was an older gentleman wearing suspenders who appeared to be the owner or manager. While I was waiting for my order, I watched him speaking to the young employees in a way that came across as rude and dismissive. I obviously don't know what was going on behind the scenes, but from a customer's perspective it was uncomfortable to watch and created an unwelcoming atmosphere. The way employees are treated says a lot about a business, and unfortunately it left a negative impression on me.

    God, it's hot out. The ol' climate may in fact be changing on us. It's a good thing we have ice…read morecream. Everyone loves ice cream. Everyone in my family, at least. And a stop at the Dairy Carnival is always welcome, especially after three hours in the car. They've got Perry's hard ice cream and soft serve. I go with the former because I'm an adult (this is a dig at my soft-serve loving wife), and I went wild this time with the Deep Sea Treasure (caramel ice cream with salty caramel swirls and caramel sea salt truffles). I like salty with my sweet, and it was amazing...the salt content means it's also the fastest melting ice cream known to man, so be warned. My kids got soft serve swirls with rainbow sprinkles, because they are tiny little girls and that's what they do. The younger one got mad at absolutely nothing and threw hers on the ground about a minute after we gave it to her, and then stole handfuls of her older sister's because she's a savage. But everyone enjoyed the stop, because ice cream on a hot day is one of life's great pleasures. Don't deny yourself. Come to the Dairy Carnival. It's a classic All-American spot staffed that we were glad to find: they've got burgers, fries, onion rings, hot dogs, chicken fingers, and ice cream, served by friendly teenage girls. Thus far, we've only had the ice cream, but I think we'll be back for it all some day in the near future. We also played giant Connect Four and threw balls at the Big Foot in the backyard (by the nice picnic tables with umbrellas for shade), because that's what you do at the Dairy Carnival.
