That is the one caution is to be prepared for eating ice cream and smelling the odors of a farm.

After eating the food, you can look at the displays, and climb on the tractors. It is a unique chance to have dessert and a show.

Everything is made fresh, right here, except for a few Cedar Crest flavors if you happen to be so inclined. There's no indoor seating, but plenty on the porch. Their ice creams and gelatos are openly on display in a glass display case so you can choose from a wide variety of flavors placed in a cup or waffle cone. Standard flavors are available in good old soft-serve. Over 21? You might opt for the addition of adult flavoring (think of the days when you'd spike the punch). Vodka in lemonade seems to be a popular choice, for some reason. The store is located on Neva Road, which is US 45 on Antigo's north side. The sign is a little small, so you have to be watching for it. It's kitty-corner from that frozen custard place that shall remain nameless since I'd rather have Twisted Ice Cream. Try them a couple of times, and you will, too.

It's only open May thru Labor Day but we will be back for sure. Like another reviewer, they gave me a free treat for my pup... no charge

Holy malted milk balls is The Dairy Barn great…read more You know, in Wisconsin, we get spoiled with good dairy products. And in most of the state, besides beer and cheese, frozen custard becomes the third corner in our food pyramid. (I love in Milwaukee, where seldom do we go out for ice cream--it's always custard.) So I forget how good ice cream can be. Then I visit The Dairy Barn just off Hwy. 141 in Lena, Wisconsin and it all comes back to me... good ice cream can give custard a run for the money any day. Smooth, creamy, and most noticeably, fresh. These traits blend together in a swirly array atop a crispy cake cone. The Dairy Barn doesn't skimp on the serving sizes either. If you're calorie conscious, don't hesitate to order an extra-small, because even a small is about the size of Lady Liberty's torch. They have food here, too -- burgers, fries, and stuff. I've had a few things, and they were fine, but the star of the show is soft-serve ice cream. That's why you should go to The Dairy Barn. Go. Go now. Summer will come to an end and The Dairy Barn will close for the season and you just won't know what to do because grocery store ice cream--no matter how "premium" or expensive--can't hold a candle to The Dairy Barn's frozen dairy goodness.

We wanted a quick snack while driving from the UP to Green Bay and came upon The Dairy Barn. As we…read moredrove in, we thought the place was inside of the nearby gas station, but we quickly found that it was a separate building with quite a number of cars and customers surrounding it. There was a nearby setup of picnic tables and all seats were taken, with people eating burgers, custard, and other treats. To order, there's a choice of either a drive through, or you can queue up at one of the windows in front. We just wanted a small snack and ordered two items. Service is quite quick; everything only took a couple of minutes to come out. Extra Small Pistachio Frozen Custard ($2) - This was the weekly special and we got the very last dregs in the frozen custard machine. We saw the employee using a spatula on the top of the machine to push through the rest of the custard. As such, we're not sure if the custard was the freshest and best churned or not. The sweetness of the custard, mint green in color, first comes through, followed by a bit of artificial pistachio flavoring. The strange thing is that we had pistachio frozen custard from another place the previous day and this tasted exactly the same. I wonder if everyone just uses the same commercial pistachio custard base and churns it differently? This particular one is quite smooth and creamy, but also a bit on the softer side and less dense than other frozen custard I've had. I can't complain when this is only $2 though. (4/5) Fried Cheese Curds ($4) - I read about the curds here on social media and I have to agree that these are quite good. The batter on the exterior is pretty thick and fried to a fantastic crisp. The interior is stretchy, milky, squeaky as they stick to the teeth and have a more firm chew. The exterior batter has quite a bit of salt added after it comes out of the fryer, making this a treat that almost begs for custard or some other sweet beverage/treat on the side. (4/5) I'm not sure there is anything that they actually make in house, but hey, the prices are so cheap and they execute everything well enough that it makes me not care. I wouldn't make The Dairy Barn a destination for food or anything, but it's a solid place to visit while you're on the road. Note that they change the special custard flavor every week starting on Wednesday until they run out, so if you insist on the special flavor don't wait until Tuesday! Bathrooms - One single unisex room located on the right side of the exterior of the building. Overall rating of the food this visit: 4/5
