Best ice cream in MA (and RI). I'll die on that hill. Great with nut/peanut allergies. Amazing flavor selection and reasonably priced. A kiddie cone is giant and a regular is embarrassing huge. 20 min from Providence and worth the ride. read more

I have been a few times years ago, and lately there's been so much hype that I had to go back. I ordered an apple pie & pb oreo Sunday with whipped cream. It was ok, I was definitely expecting more of a flavor bomb with the apple pie. It was sort of bland. I wss hoping for crazy cinnamon and apple flavor. read more

We love this place. You smell the waffle cones once you park the car. It is so serene and beautiful outside. Completely countryside. The staff were very pleasant and patient. Personally I loved the vanilla ice cream the best. We tried strawberry, chocolate, and black raspberry chocolate chip. read more

The ice cream barn never disappoints. There is often a very long line, but it is worth the wait. They are incredibly efficient even when the line is wrapped around the building. The staff is always super nice. The waffle cones are made fresh in front of you and are so delicious. There are lots of great flavors but the Reese's Heath bar specialty flavor is my favorite. They used to have several dairy free options but those have been off the menu recently so definitely check before waiting in line if that's what you're looking for. read more

Definitely one of the best ice cream spots in the area! And the portions are enormous. The cookies and cream is truly out of this world. I have tried other flavors and some of them are less flavorful in my option but still really good! Worth a trip! read more

The Ice Cream Barn - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Swansea, Massachusetts

Best ice cream around. Our drive there is approximately 18 minutes. It's worth the drive ! Don't let the long lines stop you from getting awesome ice cream. The line moves quickly. They always have plenty of hands on deck. You can also skip the line by placing an online order for a pint or two. That's usually what we do. We place the order before leaving the house, on arrival we go straight to the pick up window. Then sit in the car and enjoy. I can't tell you which flavor is best because everyone has different tastes. I guess you'll just have to try them all ... read more

Stopped in for a quick dessert night with the family. Even on a Tuesday night late in the season it was still packed with a line out the door. It loved fast and everyone worked efficiently to keep ot moving. They had a great selection of creative flavors (and gave you samples of any you wanted to try prior to ordering). Once you order you go outside and wait for your number to be called at a pickup window. The Ice Cream we all chose was great. Will definitely go back to try more flavors. read more

Great location. We visited with family and the vibes and space were great. It smells divine because they make their own waffle cones in-house, and I highly recommend you order a waffle bowl or cone with your ice cream. the non-dairy ice cream wasn't my favorite. It is coconut milk based, and I prefer an oat milk or cashew milk based non-dairy ice cream, but maybe that's a personal preference. Portion sizes are huge! And they have a million flavors, so there's definitely something for everyone. Great place to go with family! read more

Last time I went here I was determined not to get ice cream but as soon as I walked in the smell of the fresh baked waffle cones won me over. I ordered a kiddie sized raspberry oreo from the specials menu and it was huge! And delicious. Would certainly get it again. My parents were eager to try the key lime pie flavor, which they said was very limey. But it's seemingly been the talk of the town to us self-proclaimed ice cream fanatics. What I really like about this place is the barn setting. There's even cows across the street! But it's really a big barn that they serve ice cream in. It's very clean, the ordering process is clear, and the pick up process is simple. You just go out the side doors onto a patio once you order and they'll give you the ice cream out a window. And they were quick, too, despite it being very busy! read more

OMG! Best ice cream hands down! The flavors are delicious, and they have fun specials. The portions are generous. It can get busy but they always have lots of staff so the line moves pretty quickly. I go far out of my way to get there any chance I get!! read more

This place is heaven. Truly. I think it might be the best ice cream I've ever had in my life and that's saying a lot as I'm quite the ice cream connoisseur. They have a huge variety of different flavors including seasonal flavors, frozen yogurt, sugar free and dairy free. Everything I've had is delicious but my go to order is lemon blueberry frozen yogurt and apple crisp ice cream. The lemon blueberry yogurt is sweet, soft and zingy, packed with tons of fresh blueberries. The apple crisp has slices of apple and bits of crisp scattered in a creamy vanilla base. All the ice cream tastes amazingly fresh and it's made with milk from local cows. They also make their own waffle cones and bowels. Another cool feature is that the shop is solar powered (check out all the panels on the roof) and everything they give you is compostable. So you can feel virtuous while you eat a huge scoop of ice cream. Staff is friendly and efficient, even when there is a big line it moves quickly. Sit on a bench in the nearby field and contemplate the fields while you feast upon the most wonderful ice cream ever! I wish it were closer. read more

The Ice Cream Barn - Black raspberry berry ice cream in a waffle cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Swansea, Massachusetts

Ice Cream Barn is undoubtedly the best place to stop for a sweet treat during the summer--and honestly, it's a year-round kind of place for ice cream lovers! Since moving to Providence, we've discovered a plethora of fantastic ice cream shops, but we always make a point to visit Ice Cream Barn with the kids. The only thing I don't like about this place is the outdoor seating area. Currently, they only offer a few wooden benches, which could use a good clean up, as they often get messy with old ice cream and sprinkles. A bit more decoration or comfortable seating would enhance the experience for customers. Today, I had the blueberry cheesecake ice cream from their special menu, and it was absolutely delicious! The combination of creamy cheesecake bites and blueberries created a perfect flavor that I can't recommend enough. If you're in the area, this is a must-try! read more

Over priced I e cream that is not that good, at least to go out of the way to get. There is no where inside to enjoy your order only log benches in a field. The field is a disgusting mess. Everywhere you look are piles of dog crap. This I blame on rude customers, but as much as was out in field someone from business could pick it up. read more

My order came out wrong they told me they would remake it, i ordered a waffle bowl large sunday, they gave me a small cone at first then a sunday in a cup, all this after reading my receipt looking me in my eyes and told me what they were making me, which was what i ordered and i agreed.. few seconds later they completely made me the wrong thing again!!!! I threw it away in the trash because now im holding two ice creams that i dont want and that i didnt order. Anyway nice place my daughter had fun i hope i didnt ruin her experience with my attitude i did my best to smile. Thanks maybe next time i will try it read more

Holy cow. Ice cream is NOT my favorite dessert, unless it's the ice cream barn! Friendly staff (they're very fast too, not usually the case with ice cream parlors) love the barn itself and the waffle cone smell which greets you when you pull up. There are tons of outdoor seats and open space for kids to run, drop their ice cream, and even see actual cows. Cannot recommend this place enough. Choc peanut butter was v chocolatey with the perfect texture. Tried a waffle cone and it was also perfectly crisp, thick and smacked of vanilla. Happened to taste my toddlers strawberry ice cream, which I'd usually not care about, but in the best way possible it tasted like puréed strawberries and cream and I could've eaten the whole cone it was so good. Will be coming here again! read more

Want to gate keep this spot and was thrilled when they were left off the Mass Ice Cream Map. For those that know, know that smell when you open the barn doors and are transported the creamy heaven on fresh cooked cone scents. Service is fast, attentive and friendly. read more

OK, confirmed. This *IS* our favorite ice cream place in America. We literally planned our northeast trip itinerary to include The Ice Cream Barn in it, and we are so glad we did. This place is pure magic. We came the day after Thanksgiving, when it was freezing, around lunch, and we were not alone. We were excited to see more of their fall/winter flavors, and one of us went with their "Charles Dickens" (essentially like a fruit cake, but tastes so much better than it sounds!) and their pumpkin oreo, which wasn't her favorite but it was still very good. Love the Thanksgiving sprinkles option! (The only issue is that if the ice cream is really hard, and if it's really packed into the cup, then the sprinkles go everywhere.) Our daughter got the chocolate oreo brownie in one of their freshly-made waffle cones, and she shockingly ate almost the whole thing. SO good! There was also a banana peanut butter cup order along with peanut butter heath bar. What can we say other than what we said before?--everything is creeeeammmmmy and tastes so....clean and wonderful. It's the odd hallucination of feeling like the ice cream you're eating is healthy! We also want to shout out the staff who are beyond patient. We were those annoying people who sampled a few options (one of us even mid-ordering, so embarrassing!) and the young lady working was still friendly and hospitable. Does the ice cream make them so sweet or does this place just attract the best people? It's probably reciprocal! Anyway, we will always be sure to come back here anytime that we are in the area. You have to eat in your car in the winter months because it's too cold to be outside (no indoor seating), and we noticed that there were two cars next to us on either side with single drivers with out-of-state plates (like us) happily munching away on their goodies. That's how good this place is--five enthusiastic stars again! read more

Despite always having a long line out the door, the service is very quick. The ice cream is delicious and homemade, and they are generous with their portions of ice cream and toppings. It is always nice to watch the cows, we were lucky enough to see some calves running around like puppies. read more

The ice cream was delicious and the waffle cone bowl tasted very fresh. The line was very long, we waited online for an hour but there were a lot of workers and we didn't mind waiting. The inside was small but there were benches and places to sit outside. We went at night so we took our ice cream home. The operations at this place seemed well run. read more

TLDR: Best "classic" icecream around the providence and well worth the trip. Had been planning to come here but never made it out since its a little more out of the way than other solid options in the region. But I was so glad that I eventually did, because this place is amazing! Food: really creamy ice-cream that intensely incorporates each of the flavors. we ordered the strawberry and 'banana & peanut butter cup' flavors. strawberry was light and refreshing. banana-pb was super creamy with large peanut butter chunks to add a satisfying bite. also, they serve HUGE portions so even though its good prices, would recommend not being too over ambitious with the sizing! Service/logistics: usually a long line, but moves very fast. Ample parking at front and back of the shop. Ambiance: its in a very nice location by itself, so it was lovely to grab a scoop of ice-cream and enjoy the surrounding nature - and also they have cows hanging out which was adorable. can't wait to go back, next time will likely buy a take-home pint. read more

The ice cream was soooooo good they make it fresh to! Also the people were amazing there! Ambiance was good to!

The ice cream is amazing....the portions are gigantic, so stick with a small. Nice little area outside to sit and enjoy the day. Don't forget to thank the cows across the street for supplying the key ingredient to this wonderful treat read more

Awesome homemade ice cream, very well mannered young couple started this company several years ago! It's been a hit ever since!

They have incredible flavors you won't find anywhere else like coffee Oreo and cinnamon!! And the service is generally quick and professional. They can't help the long line...everyone wants some! The outdoor areas for enjoying are pastoral and take you back in time. Owners are generous and community-oriented. We even got our Christmas tree here one year with a free pint! read more

I love the barn! My favorite is the coffee Oreo, and the service is always amazing! The rustic look of the barn really ties together the farm to cone experience :) read more

The Ice Cream Barn - Small cup of coffee Oreo with Valentine's Day sprinkles! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Swansea, Massachusetts

This place closes for the season today and I'm upset. My go-to for all things ice cream. Everything is handmade and I love the map on the wall that shows which local farms all of the ingredients come from. In the summer there is often a line around the building, but I promise you it's worth it. My favorite flavors are unfortunately seasonal flavors so I'm not always able to get them. They are key lime pie, Nutella, and chocolate peppermint (not to be confused with mint chocolate chip, which they always have). The four berry vanilla frozen yogurt is also amazing, which is saying something because I'm a chocolate girl at heart. The lemon blueberry yogurt is also fantastic. I'm counting down the days until they're open in the spring again. read more

The Ice Cream Barn - Hot fudge sundae with extra hot fudge in a homemade waffle cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Swansea, Massachusetts

Their flavors aren't strong enough, the only flavor that I like from them is the coffee milk and the mint. Their chocolate ice cream is not chocolatey enough! I don't like their cups as the heat from my hands melt their expensive ice cream and makes a mess! The prices are definitely too much for their portions and they used to have really big portions and the price was fine but I notice they give less now. Their trashes need to be cleaned up more often bc they are always overflowing and trash ends up all over the place. Also in the summer it attracts a lot of bees so in their dirty field full of geese and dog poop you have to sit on tiny logs in no shade getting attacked by bees while your ice cream melts. This place is considered one of the best but what are they comparing it to bc this place is kinda disappointing! Simcocks farm or tom and jimmys are two ice cream locations nearby that are a lot better! read more

Their ice cream is the best ever! My daughter and I have been coming here for year's. The workers are quick and polite and there is a lot of parking available. The only negatives are sometimes the ground at the pick up windows are filthy and some of the seats could be replaced as they feel like you're going to fall backwards, but that doesn't stop us from coming frequently. read more

The fresh ingredients, the generous portions, the sugary smell of the newly pressed waffle cone all come together in a local farm to make the smiles of both young and old come together!

THE BEST vanilla you will ever have (it's my most favorite, even though the cranberry jubilee is mouth-watering!). I learned that they use the cow's milk from their own farm, work with local farmers to get the best ingredients (organic mint, local strawberries, cranberries, apples, etc.) and the staff ALWAYS leaves me feeling incredibly happy: they want to make sure I have a GREAT all-around experience! Thank you to all who make this happen! read more
