I was visiting family in Farmersville and we decided to get some ice cream. A short drive and we…read morewere at this place. THIS IS AMAZING ICE CREAM. My 4yo finished her entire cone before making a mess with it melting which is new for her. With me, my daughter, son, brother, mother and father all together, the order was out within 5 minutes of ordering. The ice cream is very creamy. This is a great spot for the small towns south of Springfield to avoid the drive in. I didn't have the food, however the family that lives there said it's one of their favorite spots for a quick dinner when no one wants to cook. Next time I'm up from Florida, that's where I want to eat at first so stay tuned.

The coffee was very good, and the **Maple Bourbon Pecan** flavor was excellent. They also have a large variety of syrups and drink options, which is nice for a smaller-town coffeehouse. The lattes are on the higher-priced side though, with a large 20 oz latte costing over $7. A couple things to know before going: they don't open until around 6:30am, and breakfast timing can vary depending on when deliveries arrive. They also bring in pastries from a nearby bakery once a week, so depending on the day, those may not be super fresh. Overall, it's a great local coffee shop and definitely worth stopping at, especially since there really aren't many nearby coffeehouse options in the area.

They even have a smaller but roomy section solely designated for serving up delicious scoops of ice cream. The only disappointment is that while The Milk House statistically ranks as the #17 ice cream shop in the U.S., and the charm is absolutely there, the ice cream itself is pretty unimpressive. The quality of the product is good, but the ice cream flavoring itself leaves much to be desired. Don't let that stop you from coming in, though. It's a worthy experience just off the interstate for traveling families.
