After getting the ice cream, we walked around the farm and spent some time looking at the animals. There were cows, goats, sheep, and other farm animals, which made it a fun experience, especially for a family visit. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable afternoon. Good ice cream, friendly atmosphere, and a nice chance to get outside and see the animals. I'd definitely visit again.

They don't offer samples which is a real bummer so I went with my usual. It was a graham slam. I really liked the chunks of graham cracker. The place also has a bunch of milk to buy fresh as well as other interesting snacks for purchase. After the ice cream, we walked outside to the greenhouse. The greenhouse had somewhere to buy stuffed animals and apple cider/ pies for sale. I wasn't impressed with the hot apple cider- it tasted like something I could get in the grocery store. Outside the greenhouse there were pumpkins for sale. For fall, they also have a corn maze and other activities for the kids.

The first thing I noticed was the disarray and lack of cleanliness in the store - frankly, it's a mess....which made me think twice about getting ice cream there. Nonetheless, I got a scoop of coffee. It was very tasty - I pretty much eat Haagen Dazs exclusively for both its taste and price. I can usually get a pint at Walmart for between $3-$4. This coffee ice cream had a little different coffee taste than Haagen - which I liked. However, it didn't seem as creamy, which was fine. My partner got the chocolate, which she said was average. One scoop was a little over $5, which is about average these days for your stand alone ice cream shops. While I was satisfied with the taste of my cone, I probably won't go back until they 'clean up' the store.

For our first order, we got the Cookie Butter and Cookies & Cream soft serve. They offer the option to twist the flavors together, but we decided to keep them separate so we could really taste each one on its own. Both flavors were incredibly creamy and packed with flavor--it was hard to pick a favorite! The ice cream was so good that my husband immediately went back for round two. He ordered another Cookie Butter soft serve along with a Cake Batter soft serve topped with graham cracker crunch. Safe to say, they were both just as delicious as the first. Needless to say, we left completely stuffed, but it was absolutely worth it. If you're looking for a great place to satisfy your sweet tooth, Lila's Creamery & Desserts is definitely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back to try even more flavors!

We were looking for ice cream after dinner in Ambler and quickly found Sweet Briar. The line of people waiting for ice cream was an indication it must be good...and it was!! I had the Espresso Explosion, a scooped ice cream, and my partner had a cone with the chocolate soft serve. My favorite ice cream is coffee, and the Espresso exceeded my expectations! It was rich and creamy with a deep coffee flavor that was accentuated with coffee beans that were coated with chocolate! The crunch of the beans with the ice cream was definitely an 'explosion'! My partner had the chocolate soft serve - which was a creamy and chocolaty as can be - you could see tiny little specks of chocolate in the ice cream which confirmed the luscious taste! We will be returning to Ambler the next time we want an exceptional ice cream!!
