Took the kids for ice cream while in town and everyone loved it! Portions are huge so come hungry. We all got kiddies or smalls and had plenty of ice cream. The place has a ton of outdoor seating that we didn't use because it was cold today, but would be great during the summer. read more

Very good ice cream, very good serving sizes. The people who work there are very friendly and because they offer so many unique flavors they give free samples! I was even able to sample a topping (marshmallow sauce) which i hadn't ever heard of before and it was really good so of course i put it on my ice cream. I got the black cherry vanilla and razzmanian devil in a small with marshmallow sauce and waffle pieces (broken pieces of waffle cone). The flavors were great and the size was more than enough. Only drawback is its outdoor seating only so I personally wouldn't visit on a rainy day but a nice day like today it was the perfect treat. read more

We drive by Rich Farm in Middlefield often--a small, outdoor ice cream stand with picnic tables. We have had visited the OG in Oxford and grateful that this little stand is much closer to home. If you haven't had Rich Farm ice cream before, it debated to be one of the best Connecticut-made ice cream. They have classics flavors, seasonal flavors, and small batch special flavors. The ice cream is thick, flavorful, and generous amount of cookies and candies throughout. During this ice cream pit-stop, I got one of the fall flavors, Apple Spice in a waffle cone. I'm used to getting small scoops at other ice cream places, figured a double-scoop (large) would be a good size. Wow, I got so much ice cream and glad the staff gave me a cup, predicting that I would need it. I was only able to eat have of my cone. The Apple Spice ice cream was delicious. It had bits of baked apple pieces and cinnamon throughout. My husband got Cookies n' Cream single-scoop (small) in a wafer cone. Again, the scoop was huge! There were plenty of picnic tables, but we enjoyed the ice cream in our car. It was a gorgeous day and they weren't that busy with a steady flow of customers. We will definitely stop by Rich Farm Ice Cream again. read more

Rich Farm is one of the best ice cream makers in CT. I had been driving to Oxford whenever I wanted some. Turns out they opened a spot in Middlefield just 20 minutes away. When I visited, they had one of my fav flavors of the year -- German Chocolate Brownie. So rich and smooth. I also got Buttercrunch which was tasty. Happy to have this closer Rich Farm. 5 Stars read more

According to their sign, they have been open for one year... people, let's get out there and get some ice cream! Keep them open! I was driving back from lunch in Oakdale (see previous review) when I got a hankerin' for a shake. A quick check of nearby ice cream establishments led me here. I am so glad it did. I got a raspberry shake that came out perfect. Thick and flavorful without being overpowering (some places over-syrup their shakes). The price is comparable or even a little cheaper than others. I think $7 and change. It was long gone when I thought to take a picture... it was that good. I highly recommend! read more

Saw that Rich Farm Ice Cream was listed on Local Connecticut Instagram as a Best in Connecticut Ice Cream stop. I'm sure the ice cream is great but... Drove a decent drive out from the CT Shoreline to give the closest Middlefield location a try. Was looking to get 3 pints and we had 6 flavors pre chosen that were listed on their site and social media. We also had backup flavors selected in advance just in case. Went at 2pm on a Sunday afternoon and they didn't have any the following flavors available that we selected. Brown Cow, Guernsey Cow, German Chocolate Brownie, Jersey Cow, Manny's Banana or Coffee Oreo. Went to the Cromwell Creamery instead. read more

So good! Randomly here. So full! So worth it you need to go if you're randomly here. The peanut butter milkshake was so good! read more

Great ice cream, cute place. Would recommend if in the area. German chocolate brownie 10/10 read more

Rich Farm Ice Cream - Main building - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Middlefield, Connecticut

So, my wife and I have visited this ice cream place numerous times. The flavors they offer are over the top! Not just for the little ones, and much more than Choc, Straw, and Vanilla. I personally LOVE LOVE LOVE the rum raisin. It's the BEST. I could eat it EVERY day!! My wife loves the pistachio! I didn't realize it was opened in the winter. Well try it again soon! Would definitely recommend recommend recommend it to any ice cream Aficionado's. The price isn't for the weak st heart, but it's worth it! You deserve it! read more

It's great to have a Rich Farm open close by. The ice cream tastes identical to the original Oxford location. The line can get long especially on warmer weather days and weekends, and moves pretty slowly. Price is good for the amount of ice cream you get. read more

We've been driving past this place waiting for it to open and it's a solid decent place. Flavors are classic, nothing fancy. We went at about 7:30 pm and the picture shows what they were already out of. I don't know if it will stay open year round, but if your looking for good ice cream it's good not crazy amazing but solid good read more

Amazing! Friendly and huge proportions!! Definitely a stop you should make if heading up to Lyman Orchards.

Delicious ice cream with huge portions at a good price. The kiddie size one scoop in a cup is generous. Razzmanian Devil - vanilla with raspberry swirl and raspberry filled chocolate candies is to die for. Add hot fudge for a divine experience. Plenty of outdoor seating at picnic tables. No indoor seating. read more

First time at Rich Farm! If you show up and see a long line, STAY it's worth the wait. I ordered a small Strawberry ice cream with whipped cream and my boyfriend ordered a small Cookie Monster. Both ice creams were rich and creamy! If you like fresh homemade whipped cream then this place is for you. There is also plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas which is a plus. I'll be back soon :) read more

Ordered ice cream cake and it was awesome. It was huge, fresh, and so delicious our guests were ranting and raving about how good it was! I got there before they opened for the day, but the young woman happily took my order - what a pleasure! Have been coming here for years, and it just keeps getting better. read more

Rich Farm Ice Cream - Pup cup (vanilla with peanut butter), Cookie Monster and mint chocolate chip - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Middlefield, Connecticut

While on my daughter's college visit in Middletown, wanted to explore the surrounding area and came across this place, what a find. Even though it was cold and dreary it was worth it, they give big scoops and the cones were fresh. My raspberry/vanilla with chocolate chunks (the name of the flavor escapes me) was delicious. My daughter had a black raspberry and peaches and cream combo which was a surprisingly good blend! Will definitely go back if I'm in the area again! read more

The ice cream was homemade and tasty. It's an ice cream shop located in a shack type building. There is no place inside to eat. There are many picnic tables outside to eat at. They must do a good business in the good weather. I think they close for the winter around Dec. 3, although I'm not sure about the exact date. read more

There were a lot of ice cream options. I got a small portion and it was still a lot. I got cookies and cream with fudge and caramel. Everyone at the counter weee very nice. You have outdoor seating on benches and it has umbrellas for shade. Only thing it's next to a main road so you hear all the cars. read more

Service with a smile! Banana split! We wanted to know what the buzz was about so we had to go check out Rich's. Driving up to the property, It was nice to see the long line of families enjoying the day with many sitting at the picnic tables situated on the lawn to accommodate the indulgers. However, when it was our turn to order, it was sad to see so many of the ice cream choices "sold out". I guess they underestimated the big turnout - good for Rich's!! I can't wait to really try our favorite flavors. We had chocolate chip, strawberry and coffee scoops in our banana split . Of the three flavors the coffee was the best - deep coffee flavor that is often missing at other ice cream shops. It really was a treat and we plan on returning to try our usuals. Good luck Rich at your new location. Your staff was excellent- continued smiling offering quick service - not at all being affected by the long line. read more

Wow super yummy ice cream and service with a smile. A definitely repeat... but maybe we'll wait until spring as NoV 4th was somewhat chilly. read more

I had the brownie sundae situation and it was delicious! Friendly staff, lots of delicious options. Would definitely recommend.

I always wanted to try the Oxford location so I was very thrilled they opened this one two minutes from me. Delicious ice cream, very friendly staff, take debit cards. Two suggestions to make it better. Allow customers to tip on the debit card slip so the kids can get more tips. And please in the summer time, put torches or something outside to deter mosquitoes. I got eaten alive the other night, but it's too good to get out of line. Fix the mosquito issue and this is a 5 star. read more

Really good ice cream, non dairy options, grounds nicely maintained. One not so good, last year was when they first opened, I remember them being open later , like 9pm. The lines were crazy , 20-25 people deep. Why close early during middle of summer ? read more

First time at the new location. Definitely belongs in the pantheon of CT's Top Three Ice Cream Venues. (Ferris Acres and Arethusa are my other two) The mint chocolate chip had just the right sprinkling of tiny chips and minty goodness, and the coconut ice cream was filled with that heady flavor. (Small quibble: I would've added coconut shavings.) Fresh whipped cream and a heady fudge sauce completed my treat. read more

Best ice cream!!! New specials all the time!! A must try if you are in Connecticut. There are multiple locations.

I'm so glad that I found this little place. I'm a die hard chocolate chip ice cream fan. I'm particular about the chips and how creamy the ice cream is. Hands down the Best!! The girls work really hard here to fill every order. I highly recommend this place and I will definitely be back for more! Prices are very reasonable too. read more

Good variety of flavors, especially seasonal. Plenty of outdoor seating. Watch for the turn because it's easy to miss.

Great ice cream, one of the best I've had in years. Peach flavor and also rum & raisin are highly recommended.

Best ice cream around!!! Homemade and great flavors to choice from... easy in snd out.. friendly service .. once you go you'll go again!!!!

Tried Rich Farm ice cream for the first time at the Middlefield location. I'd heard very good things about their ice cream, but was not impressed. The selection of ice cream was very limited with 4 flavors crossed out. The service was good. The ice cream was ok, but overpriced. read more

Rum raisin was way too sweet, it's my favorite flavor but not good at this location. I've been to Oxford location and it's much better.
