Creamy flavorful ice cream. Worth standing in line for. Mint chocolate chip is flavored just right with chips that taste like chocolate!

The location is the key here - you can grab a cone of Hershey's ice-cream and walk along the river path or sit and watch the boats.

My husband and I were in Brockville on a day that was 36 degrees Celsius (43 with the humidex. For…read moremy American friends, that's 97 Fahrenheit and 109 with the humidex). It was HOT! We needed some ice cream to cool us off. Who are we kidding, I'll eat ice cream anytime, but it was a great excuse for ice cream. So Cowan's Dairy is a convenience store plus an ice cream shop. We did not go into the convenience store, we just ordered ice cream from the ice cream window. They have both hard ice cream from Nestle and soft serve ice cream. I initially wanted a scoop of Cherry Cola and half a scoop of Apple Pie (you can get 1 scoop, 1 1/2 scoops or 2 scoops), but they ran out of Apple Pie, so I just got a scoop of the Cherry Cola. My husband, the strange man who he is, got a scoop of Heavenly Hash and a scoop of Mint Chocolate Chip in a waffle cone. Now this order in in itself does not make him strange, but in my opinion, if I'm going to an ice cream shop that serves Nestle ice cream, I'm gonna get me a flavour that I can't easily get at the grocery store. We have Heavenly Hash and Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream in our own freezers at home all the time!! I guess he likes what he likes! And as his wife of many years, I should appreciate that and not call him strange, right? Well, I don't necessarily think strange is a pejorative word. My husband knows he's strange, and he owns and rocks it, lol, but I am digressing from this review. I thoroughly enjoyed my Cherry Cola ice cream. The flavour was subtle and it didn't have that effervescent quality that I was hoping for, but it was still very good. And very different from flavours that I can easily obtain at the grocery store. My husband enjoyed his ice cream too, lol. The one thing I did not like was that no prices were listed. So I actually don't know how much each item cost. We paid $9.16 taxes included for 1 single scoop in a regular cone and 1 double scoop in a waffle cone. The serving size was large. My cone was really big. I really liked that in addition to traditional flavours they had unusual/more exotic flavours. Service was friendly and efficient. Lots of free parking in their private parking lot. There are picnic tables nearby where you can sit and eat. They are right next door to George's Fish and Chips.

Ok but yelp listing misleading. Was expecting local dairy ice cream. Instead basic fudge and ice…read morecream shop serving several flavours of Chapmans commercial ice cream. Their one dairy free offering strawberry sorbet sold out during mid week visit.

Absolutely wonderful place, our family were in Watertown for a day out with our toddlers, zoo,…read morelunch, playground, ice cream kind of day, well when we yelped to see what's around for ice cream shops this place came up. We love to try out new places so we chose it. No regrets here - first of the product, ice cream was the best I have had to date, really yummy, second very kid friendly place - toys, kid books, little tool set, small picnic table for littles. Owner very pleasant and friendly. Tried to accommodate our picky toddlers and provided them with a ball to play. Such a relaxed environment, it was very easy to enjoy icecream, while our kids played and went back and forth between grabbing a mouthful of icecream and going back to play. Place radiated with positive atmosphere and relaxed demeanor, just loved everything about it. No stress just icecream and fun! If you are in the area give this place a chance. Oh and they offer other treats like chocolate covered strawberries and pretzels, rice crispies and thos place has a promise of smoothies, I am personally looking forward to that too. I had full intention of taking photos of my ice cream and kids having fun but I was too busy enjoying both. I'll have to co.e back with my real camera next time and take photos. You will not regret trying this place out - it's a little gem.

This place is dangerouslyyyyy good! I got some truffles the other day that didn't even make it…read morehome! The owner is really friendly and great. Plus they are open through most of winter so highly recommend checking this place out!!
