The Cow is a staple treat haven in the Historic Reisterstown area for many many years…read more There are lines at the stand-a-lone location at any given time they are open that would confirm the hype into the tasty creamy treat. On Sunday I had the opportunity to partake in their italian ice from the mobile truck that was contracted out into our HOA community end of school gathering. The mobile vehicle served up soft served icecream in cones or a come (vanilla or chocolate), various italian ice and gelatis. The lady in the mobile vehicle was very attentive and friendly to all that came for a treat in our HOA community. If you are looking for an addition to a party or gathering you are having dont hesitate to add THE COW to your next engagement gathering.

Most seating is outdoors but some is under roof if you want to visit on a rainy day. They have a lot of playground areas for the kids. Though some clearly need adult supervision. The ice cream is delicious. Price for all natural homemade ice cream is fair. They have traditional flavors as well as some unique ones like lavender lemon. They also sell dairy free options like sorbet. I recommend this as one of those family destinations during a drive in the country.

Haven't been here in a while but it's still a top creamery. Must stop when in the area!…read more Tried the food out this time. Bbq beef and a steamer. The steamer was one of the best I've ever had. Homemade and great flavor. I'm not always a bbq beef guy but it was tender and flavorful. Chocolate milk is great. Rich and chocolatey. I do wish it was a little thicker. Ice cream is always delicious. I'm a big fan of creamy texture. Got granny's crumbs which is a biscoff cookie flavor. Very good! Very kind service and recommendations. It's also a nice cute farm with fun things to do outside for the younger kids.

This evening I had Raspberry Bavarian which is vanilla ice cream with raspberry flavor and chocolate chunks. My husband had coconut flavor ice cream with chocolate chips throughout.

They partner with many of the local VFD fire houses to service ice cream at their carnivals. Off the top of my head they are Winfield, Sykesville, and Reece fire halls to name a few. Their location on 32 has a small convenience store attached to it that makes fresh deli sandwiches. Give it a try and it's worth the trip if you want to get some homemade ice cream.

Our group had a nice time eating here after taking a hike at the trail next door. I got the chicken…read moresalad but requested it without bread and was very satisfied that they served it to me instead on a bed of greens. One friend got the chicken Caesar salad. It's listed on the menu as a "small plate" but turned out to be a very decent size. My husband tried the key lime ice cream, which was not listed on the menu of flavors. This tasted really good too. The seating area is very limited - about six table with two chairs each. There are also a few tables outside. One drawback is that prices are not clearly listed. For instance, I could not find any signage for how much the drinks, muffins or croissants cost, which would have been helpful to me in my attempt to be a smart consumer. Overall, this is a nice place to grab a bite after walking or biking the trail. There is 30 minute parking for customers - apparently the employee told a friend of ours that they do tow away cars (I guess of hikers) but I don't know how much they enforce the time aspect.

There's ample outdoor seating which was a huge plus. The prices are super reasonable and I loved the flight of 4 flavors because I get decision fatigue when I see so many choices!

Not only is this a working dairy farm where you can take a self guided tour (see the milking parlor and bottling plant) but they have a shop on-site where you can buy all their delicious varieties of milk, cheese, baked goods and other treats. They even had a clearance section where we picked up day old goodies and they were just as good! We loved meeting all the calves and also getting to speak with one of the owners who was extremely generous with her time and spoke to me and my little one about the farm, their process with keeping their cows happy throughout all year in all temperatures and maintaining the farm. We will absolutely go back when we're in the area! This is a must see for anyone who appreciates cows, milk or just seeing a farm in action.
