Parking right off the street and plenty of seating to enjoy whichever flavor you enjoy.

I was greeted by a very busy parking lot on that Saturday afternoon. Committed to waiting in line for my sweet treat, I was pleasantly surprised to see the crowds were massed around the take out window for food and not ice cream. Great for me but also made me wonder what I was missing out on. It would seem everyone was drawn to the seafood platters here which, had I had a hankering for, looked heaped with appetizing fried morsels. Alas, I diverted to the other set of windows. I was waited on right away after perusing the extensive list of flavors. I was hoping for Coffee Oreo but discovered they were out. Not to worry, they had plain 'ol coffee and I was on my way. A small serving was HUGE! I couldn't finish it all, even having worked up an appetite. The homemade ice cream was creamy and flavorful. Fairly standard though as ice cream goes but the ambiance and experience at the place maintains a higher star rating. Plenty of park benches and picnic tables sprinkle the property. Rolling fields and farmlands surround the establishment. Large parking lot. Ice cream, take out, dine in, and country store all available. I only experienced the ice cream so the rest will be left to my imagination. Fun stop post-hike.

Lobster rolls some how fit about a whole lobster of meat on a roll and are available with butter or mayo. One of my favorite ice cream options, with the many available is the vanilla frappe with a shot of maple syrup, a unique and delicious option for sure. Where once I would have traveled the extra 10 minutes to go to Kimballs, Charlie's exceeds their flavor options and selection ans you are best served by staying in town and going to Charlie's.

I've never seen anyone here who actually works here. I've seen a friendly dog, an adorable cat, and…read moreseveral other patrons. Whenever I stop in, I pick things from the fridge or freezer case, grab a payment envelope, and jot down what I'm taking. Then, I either pay with cash or by check, and slip the envelope into the lockbox. Best system ever! If you actually need to speak with someone, you can give them a call. I can't as I don't get cell service in their shop. But fortunately, they usually have what I need on hand. Yay!

Came here today for the first time for ice cream! Not one soul was in the farm, nor the store. The…read moreonly ones to greet us were the adorable cat patrons of the dairy farm. But what made me sad was that today is an especially hot day, and yet those two cats look like they have 1) no access to water, and 2) no access to cooler spots to escape the heat. They also were extremely matted, with thick furs that only amplified the sun's heat. After looking inside the store for someone, we went to take a peek in the dairy farm. Again, not a soul. Even worse, the cows themselves were in chains --suffering in the heat and their own piles of feces. We really tried looking around for someone -- moreso at that point to ask for more context surrounding the animal wellness situation. Not a fan. We eventually left because we didn't want to financially support a business who looks to treat their animals like the piles of feces they're forced to be surrounded in.

The interior of the store has displays of pre-boxed sweets of various assortments but the center stage counter is enough to take you back to the days when you stood transfixed by the dazzling display of sugary sweets. Many of the candied delights appeared artfully crafted. There were koi fish made out of what looked like white chocolate with orange swirled throughout. Little bears holding red hearts peered out of one tray and huge strawberries slathered in dark, milk & white chocolate tempted us. We took our time and started to fill a small box., (Yeah, right) which we needed to upgrade quickly as sweet after sweet beckoned to us. Hats off to the chocolatiers of Ave Maria ! We'll be back !

They greet you as you walk thru the door which is nice. You don't get that in most places anymore. We will take the 45 min. Drive to go to that place. Cause it's worth it. Keep up the good work. And Tom thanks for the Challenge. Ps: If you going for ice cream there's only one size so bring a friend to share ...lol. The Portions are pretty big. The Dining is Inside or outside. Go there You won't be disappointed.

Sitting at the bar looking over the menu, the atmosphere had that comfortable local feel that makes you want to stay awhile. I ordered a margarita while waiting for my food, and the staff was incredibly friendly and social, they made me feel like a regular from the moment I walked in. My order came out quickly and was packaged carefully, which made it perfect for traveling. I chose the steak tips and shrimp cocktail special with two sides, and everything was excellent. The steak tips were tender and cooked perfectly, and even in a to-go container the shrimp cocktail was beautifully presented and tasted very fresh. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with great food and genuinely welcoming service.
