Cute hole-in-the-wall!…read more Closer to Cornell than the Frosty Cow! Lots of flavor options, but sad you can't get more than one flavor. I tried the custard and it was delicious! Not as eggy tasting as I expected... actually not eggy tasting at all. Still creamy and sweet. Large portions. Also tried the cotton candy hard icecream which was good but not my type of flavor. Make sure to check out the toad tire garden when you're here! A few benches in the garden for sitting too. Overall, I would recommend! Not quite as polished as the Frosty Cow, but it has its own Ithacan charm about it.

It's a charming little roadside ice cream spot with that classic small-town feel and a solid variety of flavors. We got Lemon Chillo and Toasted Coconut, both creamy, flavorful, and perfect for a summer treat. The kiddo scoop was just $4, which felt like a steal for the quality. Heads up: it's cash only, so come prepared! Simple, affordable, and sweet in every way - this place is 100% worth a stop if you're nearby.

We got the matcha soft serve, and woahhh - it was absolutely delicious!! For the price, it's a total steal. The matcha flavor was rich and concentrated, exactly what I dream of in a good matcha dessert. If you're a fan of bold, earthy matcha, this place is a must. Sure, there's a slight gritty texture from the powder (as expected), but it's surprisingly smooth for how strong the flavor is. They also had Taichi drinks, which was kind of unexpected but weirdly fun to see at a small-town creamery??

They carry homemade ice cream and some selections from Perry's. They also have soft serve.

I had a great flavor I've never seen anywhere..... chocolate ice cream mixed with chocolate pieces and coconut pieces in a chocolate and nut dipped waffle cream cone.

Walking up to the order window you're greeted by a friendly cashier who's eager to take your order. You look around at their large menu before deciding on getting a scoop of their newest creation: Earl's Ice Cream. After reading the description and learning that it's named after a local farmer, your scoop is up within minutes and now you have the option to sit outdoors in the sun, under their covered patio, or indoors in the AC. If you're needing a bit more than just ice cream you can also order food off of their snacks menu which includes fries, tenders, and other finger foods!

I got the chocolate soft serve with rainbow sprinkles and it was the perfect sweet treat. If you only want a little something, you can get a kids size like I did, but they also have small, medium, and large sizes too. One thing to know is that it is cash only. If you do not have cash, they may offer an IOU like they did for us. There is an ATM next door, but I had issues with it not accepting my card, and my friends had the same problem, so I ended up paying in quarters. They were very kind and patient about it though. The line can get pretty long, but it moves quickly, so it is not a bad wait at all. It would be nice if there was more seating, especially since so many people come here, but overall it is still a really great stop for ice cream.

Cute seasonal ice cream spot in Ithaca!…read more Located in downtown- the line can get pretty long in the evenings- even on weekdays. Cash only so be prepared. I am partial to soft serve but have tried both their hard icecream and soft serve. I prefer their soft serve but wish they had more flavors. I tried the classic chocolate twist and the two berry twist soft serves. In the two berry twist, I didn't like the pink flavor- it was too icy and more like a sorbet/dole whip than true soft serve. I liked the purple flavor thought! Overall, I still frequent Sweet Melissa's for softserve close to Cornell! Would recommend!

I'd been wanting to check out Frosty Cow for a while and I finally got the chance to go with my…read moregirlfriend and a friend... except none of us actually ordered anything. And no, we didn't see any cows either. Strike one. The second time was more eventful. I went with a different group of friends, and this time we did get ice cream and see the cows. (Let me be clear: the cows are not part of the official Frosty Cow experience, but somehow, they're always part of the story.) They're just... there. Big, red-eyed, slightly intimidating cows, chilling nearby like unofficial mascots. We got lowkey scared at first, but of course, that didn't stop us from taking a ridiculous amount of photos. It's unpredictable, though; Another time we drove past, and the cows were nowhere to be found. So if you're planning your visit around cow sightings, maybe call ahead and ask, "Are the cows out tonight?" Totally normal question. As for the ice cream, it's definitely worth the hype. We got the Fruity Pebbles flavor, which was creamy and nostalgic in the best way. My girlfriend found it a little too milky for her taste, but I loved how rich and dairy-forward it was. The cereal bits gave that perfect crunchy finish. All in all, whether you're in it for the ice cream or just hoping for cows, Frosty Cow is a fun little stop worth checking out.

You may want to be specific about your sizing preferences before you order, because I was blown away. Super Scoops is a super cute little ice cream shop in Homer. Although there are many other shops in the area, the customer service at this establishment has kept me coming back. They feature a good number of Purity's hard ice cream flavors as well as soft serve treats. You can't go wrong with a double scoop of Madigan Mint or, my personal favorite, a Boomberry milkshake. The people who work here are really great. They're funny, personable, and make you feel welcome. What a great place to visit on a hot summer day..or on any day when you're craving a sweet treat!
