Wow. All I can say is sheep milk ice cream for the WIN for those with lactose intolerance or dairy issues. I could not believe this didn't bother my stomach! It was a little "icier" than traditional ice cream- but still super creamy and the flavor (mint chip) was so delicious. Helpful staff and super clean inside. read more

I've been meaning to write this review since I had such a great experience! We came in after eating at Etto I needed something sweet to cleanse off that pasta pallet of carbs. We wanted to mask it with sugar lol. Sheep's milk! Who would have thought?! My husband had the crazy cookie, and I opted for the fresh mint. The mint was delicious. Literally not artificial, and the sheep milk is smooth, a little icy, and complemented the mint beautifully. Dare I say the best mint chip I've ever had. Trust when I say I love artisan ice cream. I came here to leave a review about the service though. There was one young girl working, and there were two large families in front of me and no one behind me. She was patient with them as they both had kids and tried different flavors. When everyone left, for some reason I started having a coughing fit. I think I tried to sneeze and cough at the same time and that was just a catalyst lol. Plain embarrassment. She reached for some water handed that to me and I was so grateful that she recognized I was struggling lol. It's the little things we do as humans. Inside is small, but they do have a patio and this place is surrounded by a brewery with lots of other options to eat outside so you will not be lost on finding a seat somewhere. read more

Negranti Creamery is an artisanal ice cream shop known for serving sheep's milk ice cream. It was started in 2010 by Jessica Negranti who wanted a true farm-to-spoon experience. Sheep's milk is higher in protein but slightly lower in fat than cow's milk. This location is at a small shop in Tin City tucked between an olive oil shop and a cidery/brewery. We tried their different flavors before settling on a split scoop ($6) with thai tea and crazy cookie. The thai tea was decent and the crazy cookie was essentially like a cookies and cream. It's a good spot to go after grabbing food in the area but if it's too far there's a flagship store in downtown Paso Robles in the heart of the city. read more

Negranti creamery is located in Tin city right next door to Olivias de Oro (an olive oil producer company). Upon entering the intimate space it was clean with an open layout. If you haven't guessed it, they serve ice cream and have numerous flavors. Today was a Strawberry mango kindof day, so that's what I ordered. The strawberry mango ice cream was wickedly delicious. I could not wait to make it disappear, like a lady, of course. I would definitely order that again and again. If you're ever in the area, make sure you stop by. The space was clean and the staff friendly. read more

Stumbled upon this creamery while walking along Tin City and I'm so happy we tried it! The ice creams are made from goat's milk so the texture is lighter and softer and i feel like the flavor is more. We tried the cookies and cream, pumpkin pie and chocolate. We will definitely stop by again when we go back to Paso Robles. read more

Cute stop with unique flavors, but the texture wasn't my favorite We were in the area and saw great online recommendations for this little creamery, so our group of six decided to check it out. It's a tiny shop with a lot of charm, and they even have a small deck in the back where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream if the weather is nice. Between all of us, we tried a wide range of flavors -- everything from salted caramel to classic chocolate. They definitely offer some fun, unique options, which made it a great spot to sample and compare. We also happened to come during a happy hour special, so my small scoop was only $3, which was a nice surprise. While everyone liked the flavors and thought the value was great, we all agreed that the texture leaned more icy than creamy. It wasn't bad, just not the rich, smooth style I personally prefer. Still, it was a fun place to try something new, and if you enjoy inventive flavors and a lighter ice cream texture, it's worth a visit. P.S. the service was excellent! read more

I'm a fan of ice cream and yet dairy and I are no longer compatible. So when I find an ice cream I can savor I am all for it. As this delicious dessert is made with sheep's milk. Now sheeps milk and I are very compatible. The flavors are soooo good we often buy a pint or two to take home. The shop is very clean and the staff are very friendly and fun. They even let you taste a flavor if you ask. We had a bit of a drive and they kindly provided us with some ice so our delicious sheep's milk ice cream could travel well to be savored at home. The cones are crunchy and very fresh so be sure to order a cone and pick up a pint while you are at it. Reasonable prices for a nice specialty dessert. We especially enjoyed the honey cinnamon flavor. Be sure to try them All... Please note there are two locations this one in the Tin City in South Paso Robles, and their original one is on Pine Street also in Paso Robles which I believe was the first store they opened, and we have visited that one also. read more

Delicious and unique flavors, they also have a flight of ice cream to choose from ! Will def visit again.

I feel like each new place they open the quality was sacrificed and so is everything I loved about the origional place. They discounted their club where you got fun unreleased flavors and Gone are the days when I order an ungodly amount of the Thai tea ice cream for my summer party. The last batch I had ended up unwanted and with freezer bun. If you knew my family is sacrilegious for ice cream to last longer than a week. I still recommend this place to tourist but I haven't really gone back. read more

Our family loves this spot and stop in when we're passing by. We love the sheep ice cream. It has a lighter texture than traditional cow ice cream but still is full of flavor. They have both traditional flavors and their own creations. There is limited seating inside but there are tables on the back balcony, which has a nice view. They also have a To Go case with pies and other tasty items. read more

Located in Downtown Paso Robles, this is a wonderful ice cream shop that features Sheep milk, which is a lot lighter than cow's milk. They have an upscale, modern appearance, catering to a young, affluent community. Their selection is both creative and artistic. You can also build your own ice cream cookie sandwiches, sundaes, or milkshakes! I recommend their milkshake, and ordered their strawberry swirl ice cream with whipped cream. read more

Love their ice cream! High quality ingredients and delicious! Try the vanilla bean - it's THE best you'll ever have. And my husband's favorite treat is their peanut butter ice cream pie that has a graham cracker crust & butterfinger sprinkled on top. Truly decadent and yet not cloyingly sweet. Their seasonal flavor Peaches & Cream blew our minds - and taste buds! Wow! The first thing I ever tried 8+ years ago was their espresso chip ice cream in an ice cream cookie sandwich on a lunch date with my mom. It was incredible! And their mint chip is special and unlike anything you've had before. The real (!) mint flavor shines and is very refreshing. This is their Tin City location. They are well-stocked and staffed with kind and welcoming people. Cute balcony seating too. If you love ice cream, you'll love Negranti. And if you're like me where ice cream has always been somewhat meh - be prepared to have Negranti completely change your perspective! Yes, it's THAT GOOD. read more

This place was adorable and the ice cream was delicious. Luckily for us they had one table and two chairs outside so we were able to sample some even though we had our dog with us! We shared a flight of 4 scoops for $10 which one person could easily finish. It allowed us to try multiple flavors. We chose cookies and cream, strawberry basil, blueberry lavender and fresh mint chip and they were all very good. I was surprised that the mint was our favorite but it was just so fresh! The quality of the ice cream here is amazing. I would definitely come back and I recommend stopping here to try some if you're in the area. read more

I had never tried sheep milk ice cream before visiting Negranti Creamery. Spoiler alert - it's delicious! I ordered a milkshake and chose cookies & cream ice cream. The milkshakes are made with oat milk. I was a little confused when the server asked if I wanted whipped cream on top. Sheep milk, oat milk, and cow milk - a trifecta! The milkshake was delicious! I appreciated that the staff split the milkshake in two glasses since I was splitting it with my partner. I'd stop at Negranti again next time I'm in the area! read more

I had the cinnamon apricot crisp flavor on a waffle cone. The waffle cone is freshly made and very light and crisp. The flavor of the ice cream was great, although the texture could have been more creamy. The customer service was great and the associate that helped me was patient even while I indecisively tried multiple samples. The flavors are unique. There is no need to sit indoors as there is plenty of outdoor seating which even includes options for family seating. read more

Great ice cream shop with delicious ice creams! I believe all their ice cream is homemade-and their scoops are nice and generous to boot!

Sheep delicious sheep ice cream. I highly recommend the brown sugar. We tried the apple pie mode. Apples tasted grape. The rest was just mediocre. I've had this ice cream before intense city and loved it. Service was pretty good. Super busy spot. I recommend giving it a try. read more

Sheep Trick A small one woman show that started in 2010 with a flock of sheep and a dream has blossomed into a four--and soon to be six!--scoop shops along the Central Coast and Idaho, of all places. Negranti Creamery was the first sheep ice cream milk producer in the US and is by far the most known one. Sheep milk might be the superior milk when it comes to consumption as, according to a University of Auckland study, more digestible than cow milk and has more protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals. The Good: *Located at Paso Robles' Tin City, and is the only real "food" brick-and-mortar location there besides the occasional food truck. *Friendly service *Ice cream flights are great for the indecisive, as well as those who want to try it all. *My son loved their ice cream cookie sandwiches and actually asked to go back a second time, which is unheard of for him. *Small outdoor seating area *Pricing is very reasonable *Vegan options available The Meh: *Flavors were mostly a bit too muted for our liking. I wish they were punchier, especially the lavender-blueberry, which seemed like a good combo, but fell flat in the flavor dept. The Ugly: *Maybe the ice cream was mishandled, but I found it to be grainy and not as rich in flavor as standard bovine ice cream. Conclusion: Overall, it was an interesting experience and worthy of a try. It's probably 3.5*, but since my son liked it, I'll bump it up to 4*. read more

We spent the day roaming Pismo Beach and were headed back to our AirBnB in Paso Robles. I had a sudden ice cream craving so we found this joint via a Yelp search and stopped in since it was on our way back. The ice cream flavors for the day were not your typical but that's what makes these places stand out from their competitors. Texture, taste, and quality hit every mark. Good portion size for each scoop. The cashier told us their ice cream is made from sheep's milk and locally sourced ingredients which made for an extra special sweet treat. Merch is sold on site, and ice cream tubes featuring their popular flavors are packed and ready to take home. Pretty cool vibe all around. read more

Definitely stop here for the best ice cream, made from sheep's milk and locally sourced ingredients. Service was friendly. I couldn't decide on a flavor, so I chose a flight for $10.00, which gave me a choice of 4 flavors. Truly, between the four, I couldn't declare a favorite; they were all good. (Ok, maybe the Blueberry Lavender). My husband and I each bought a flight, then enjoyed the wonderful tastes on the sunny back patio. Wonderful! read more

Sheep milk ice cream ... ive never heard of it or tried but it was very-good. We liked both the cow milk& sheep milk ice cream & you really cant tell the difference. Imo sheep milk was a little smoother texture wise & they told us it's easier for people to digest . About 12 different flavors & some drinks offered here ! read more

Had heard about this place as a must visit when in Tin City. We stopped in after lunch nearby for dessert and it didn't disappoint. For 2 people, we got the flight of 4 for $10 which is a deal given a kiddo cup is $5.5. The staff were very nice and let us try many flavors. We got the blueberry lavender, cinnamon sugar, cookies and cream (since it is their most popular) and strawberry basil. All flavors very unique and delicious. Even comes with a triangle of waffle cone in each which is cute. The quality is not the creamiest I've had, and it seemed to melt rather quickly even when eating it indoors in their AC. Seating has just two tables inside but many outside on their patio. Adorable and reasonably priced swag. read more

Negranti Creamery came on my radar as I was browsing through Google Maps for points of interest on my most recent road trip to Monterey. Paso Robles was a halfway point where I planned to stop by for lunch and gifts. I didn't actually stop by Negranti Creamery until my trip back to OC, since I figured I'd have more space in my portable fridge. Sheep's Milk ice cream? Instantly, I thought of the distinct scent of goat's milk - I imagine, a distant cousin of sheep. Luckily, this ice cream doesn't have as strong of a "scent" as goat's milk. The added plus of it being lactose-friendlier than cow's milk ice cream was another plus. Third plus was the flavor Blueberry Lavender - which was actually one of the flavors I was most intrigued about. After yelping a few of their scoop shops, I found the one located at Tin City would probably have the best parking situation, and headed over there. Was greeting warmly by Nicole, in a spacious, pleasantly designed ice cream shop. Nicole was friendly and generous with the samples, since I was trying to decide which pints to get. Pints are $10 each, or 4 for $35 - and I opted for the four pints since I knew on my return trip, I'd have more space in my portable fridge. The four flavors I picked up were: * Blueberry Lavender: 4/5 - the flavors of blueberry and lavender are definitely there, but the consistency was a bit more icy than my liking. * Matcha Green Tea: 4/5 - not the strongest matcha flavor, but the creaminess was apparent and definitely a favorite. * Cinnamon Honey: 3/5 - this reminded me like Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal - the flavor that is, not the crunch. It was good, but not a favorite. * Harvest Pumpkin: 5/5 - absolute favorite flavor. It's seasonal, but you can definitely taste the pumpkin, creamyness and the sheep milk. Sheep milk ice cream has a unique taste to it - even as the "base" to all these flavors. It's nothing gross or anything - but if you've had goat's milk, you know there's that distinct taste that's different from cow's milk. Overall, it was a nice change to the typical ice cream I like to get. If you get their 4 pints for $35 deal, it's not that bad compared to pints of other premium ice cream. On Tuesdays, you get 20% off all pints, so that's another plus. The ice cream store itself is cutely decorated, with a pleasant outdoor seating area overlooking parts of Tin City. I think this will be a new stop on the way back from any future road trips passing through Paso Robles! read more

Cute shop in Tin City, which is kind of a neighborhood in Paso Robles, selling sheep's milk ice cream. We got the strawberry basil ice cream. Fun, new flavor.

Jamie W. and I had no idea what to expect as we strolled through Tin City, an expansive industrial artisans marketplace. We walked by several wine tasting rooms and ended up sampling the Tin City Cidery (review: https://bit.ly/3iETTDB). However, we were still looking for something to satisfy a sweet tooth, so we were happy to come upon this ice cream shop from a local creamery. Apparently Negranti's specialty is sheep's milk in their ice cream, but they also offer standard cow's milk as well as sorbet and pure vegan options. I chose a $6 Single Split Cup which afforded me two pleasing flavors, Harvest Pumpkin and Blackberry Cabernet Sorbet (photo: https://bit.ly/3Wfq22c). Jamie repeated the order but replaced the sorbet with the swirly Red Velvet (photo: https://bit.ly/3wpxihT). Good stuff in Tin City.

Not the place for you if you like creamy ice cream. Consistency is very icy and flavors seem watered down and not particularly complex.

Negranti Creamery, Tin City, Paso Robles, CA - November 28, 2023 They say you can't buy happiness, but you can buy ice cream, and that's pretty much the same thing! (Source: Unknown) We try to come here every time we come to Tin City. Now that I can no longer drink beer, it's nice to have another vice I can enjoy. I'm lactose intolerant, but no worries. All their ice cream here is made from sheep's milk, which has little or no lactose. They usually have about 15-20 delicious flavors that can be dished up in a cup or cone. Flavors range from standard chocolate, vanilla, and chocolate chip to strawberry basil and lavender blueberry. Every flavor we've ever tried has been amazing! There are about 3 different sizes of cups. You can also order a flight of 4 different scoops. That's what we did last time. The service at Negranti has always been great. We've always been greeted with a friendly smile and a cheerful attitude. I guess I'd be cheerful too if I worked at an ice cream shop! The inside of the shop is modern, clean, and refreshing. They have an outdoor patio where you can devour your creamy delight or you can take it with you! read more

First time trying sheep milk ice cream and it's SO yummy! Husband and I split a flight - we got mint chip, Thai iced tea, coffee, & cookies and cream. I loved how the flight also came with a piece of waffle cone (although there's inconsistency in service. We got 4 pieces while our friends that also got a flight only got 2 pieces) Mint chip- I have a soft spot for mint chip and it's usually one of my go to flavors. This one wasn't minty enough for me and was my husband's least favorite of the 4 Thai tea- strong thai tea flavor but not too sweet. Was probably my favorite since it's a hard flavor to execute! Coffee- good coffee flavor but wasn't as creamy as others. Something was off in the texture Cookies and cream- another go to flavor for me. Loved this one as well and I appreciated the actual cookie chunks. read more

Negranti Creamery is different from other ice cream because they use sheep's milk. I never knew this but sheep's milk is lower in fat, high in protein, vitamins and minerals and is great for those who are lactose intolerant. Lower in fat and higher in protein and vitamins you say? I'm all for that! We went on a Saturday afternoon, around 1:30pm and the line spilled out the door. The line went fast though. There were so many flavors to choose from and I literally wanted to try all of them! I ended up getting a single scoop but I can choose up to 2 flavors. I chose the black coffee chip and the salted brown sugar. The latter had a very light flavor but it was still good. I actually liked the black coffee chip the best because I was able to taste the coffee. I'll be back for more Scoops and Cheers to great tasting ice cream and great service! read more

Absolutely love stopping into Negranti on a trip to Paso. It's a must. Personally: I'm all about the cow's milk ice creams. The sheep milk leaves more of an icy consistency, while the cow's milk ice creams are much more creamy and smooth. If you're about variety, I'd recommend getting the flight! That gives you four little scoops to devour. On top of their scooped ice creams, they have a freezer with cookie dough and ice cream sandwiches to grab and go. read more

First time trying sheep's milk ice cream--much easier on the stomach for those with difficulties processing lactose. It is more icy than cow milk ice cream (half the fat content), but the flavors here are natural, intense, and delicious. The coffee flavor was rich, full, and authentic. Berry with basil was surprisingly good as well. The outdoor patio has ample comfortable, private seating overlooking the yard below. Shop ran out of waffle cones, but we were offered several waffle chips that served as a good substitute. Appreciate the service and friendliness of Kylie. read more

Delicious ice cream whether it's sheep's milk or cow's milk. Sheep's milk is definitely lighter (a little different) and better for the tummy and their flavors are scrumptious. It's in a nice area where there is a lot of food options and drinks galore. I've been to the other ice cream location as well, and it's just as good slightly different vibe. Having options of milk and flavors are enticing enough to come back on our next road trip down south. Young staff was also friendly. Paso is also really quite fun with wineries and boutiques, so this won't be the last. read more

The experience: This is a small ice cream shop that pairs perfectly with the adjacent brewery. They have about 16 flavors and are very generous with samples. Staff are friendly and the service is quick, so don't get discouraged if there is a line. Need to know: When we were there, they had to close for about 15 minutes in the middle of their usual service hours to defrost additional ice cream since they had run out. Unsure whether this is a normal occurrence. Notable: They have cow's milk and sheep's milk ice cream. I had the Black Coffee Chocolate Chip, and Tin Road (their take on rocky road), both of which are made from sheep's milk and are delicious. read more

The ice cream here is sheep's milk and cow's milk, so I don't know what people are talking about in their reviews of having goat's milk ice cream when that isn't served here. Goat milk tastes way different than sheep's milk because they're different animals. Got a double scoop for $7.95 of black coffee chip and peanut butter cup. I honestly wished I would have shared it with my husband rather than him getting his own double scoop because it was a LOT of ice cream. They have a very nice balcony to sit on outside to enjoy your ice cream and the prices are very fair. Would go back if I was visiting Tin City area. read more

Was super skeptical about this before coming as I was expecting something gamey tasting, but my expectations were blown away. It's not as creamy as cow milk ice cream, but it's a little icy but refreshing? I didnt feel heavy or bloated after having this comparatively to cow milk ice cream, but this was really nice and light. I got to try a good variety of flavors but their Strawberry Basil and Coffee ice cream were really good! The workers were really nice and the place is located in a cute lil town area.
