Saw this place on Instagram and decided to try it out while on the scenic wine route. Conveniently located just past Watkins Glen. A fourth generation dairy farm that excels in cheese and ice cream. We tried the 8 flight. 4 cheeses 4 ice creams. All were delicious. I tried the peach habernero Quark and immediately needed to buy one in the case. Its a super protein and so creamy. I can't wait to pair it with celery sticks for a nice snack. They offer a few coffee drinks as well. I ordered a caramel Americano. Next time I am in the area I will definitely come by again!
Stopping at Shtayburne Farm was the highlight of our trip to the Finger Lakes. The ice cream and cheese flight is unique and amazing, and you get to support a local family business. If you make one stop while you're in the area, stop here! We came by for, of course, the ice cream and cheese flight. We each decided to get the 12 flight option for $26- a great deal and a great idea! When you head in their shop, you pick up a paper and write down your selections. You can choose to do as many of a kind as you like- you could do just cheese or just ice cream. They prep your board and number your paper so you can tell what each item is. You can sit inside or outside, but I would recommend outside- the view is fantastic! The ice creams are absolutely amazing, and there's a lot of variety in the flavors. The cheese is the highlight, though. They have some of the best cheese I have ever had. Try the select cheddar and the quark- so good! We didn't stop by for another flight, but we did buy a cooler to bring some cheese home! Stop by!
Great place to stop by and get a flight of cheese and ice cream tasting! They have great selections of both items. My favorites were the butter garlic, tomato basil, chicken wings, and their signature cheese curds. I also thought their cherry chocolate chunk ice cream was delightful. If you're staying in Geneva or on your way to Watkins Glen, I highly recommend stopping by and support their local business!
Ice cream or cheese tasting - sign me up! We came for the ice cream tasting - soooo good! You get 4 choices of 1 scoop & all the flavors are so creamy & yummy! We all loved our tasting! They also offer cheese tasting which we were going to come back for but didn't get a chance. This is an Amish run farm & you can go in & just buy ice cream or cheese without doing a tasting. You can also watch thru the window the people making the cheese! Great concept & a welcome relief from all the wine we were drinking!
We love this place and continue to go every time we visit. We get the cheese tasting and includes a good amount of each cheese along with some crackers and jam. You can visit the calfs and cows while you're there or just relax and enjoy the beautiful view. The staff are very kind and helpful as well. They also make ice cream that's delish! You can sometimes watch them making the cheese if you go during those times. True Amish cheese and ice cream.
Amazing! Ice cream and cheese flights are so good. We got a 12 count and went back for a second round! Comes with little crackers and jam. Great scenery with plenty of seating outside and several tables inside too. The best coffee ice cream I've ever had. They also sell frozen cold brews that are refreshing and delicious.
We stopped here for a cheese tasting on our way to Geneva. We got the flight of 8 cheeses, I believe it was $13. They have a smaller flight and a larger flight and you can combine cheeses and icecreams as you wish. All of the cheese was delicious, we couldn't finish it all and took some of it home with us. The only issue was it was SO HOT inside the facility. The air conditioner must have not been working properly, so we weren't able to sit and enjoy our cheese as long as we would've liked to.
Absolutely charming and unique place, the ice creams were all wonderful and the quark we tried (new food to me) was exceptional! Highly recommend a stop here.
The most interesting place. I had never heard of a cheese flight much less an ice cream flight. You can combine them. My husband and I shared an 8 flight tray - 4 cheeses and 4 ice cream. Wonderful cheese and ice cream!
The ice cream and cheese flight is fantastic. What a fun concept. The ice cream was so good and the cheese was easy as well. A unique experience that I'm glad we tried!!! Lots of outside seating but not a lot of shade.
On a recent trip upstate, I heard about this creamery from a friend who had gone herself. Upon arriving, we all got a strong scent of cow dung but that's how you know it's a legit farm, right? FYI, to get a tour, you need to call in advance (more than 24 hours) to make sure that someone is there to give you the tour. Otherwise you're able to walk around and take a peek at the cows and calves for yourself! I'm getting ahead of myself though. Before our self guided tour, we went to the store to sample the ice cream offerings! Shtayburne Farms is very smart to offer flight options (for both ice cream and cheese). Since I'm lactose intolerant I pick and choose (though clearly I was still going to eat some) and decided to go all out on the ice cream. I shared a flight of 8 with my sister and we had a ball. We tried: Coffee Heath Crunch, Summer Berry, Cookie Dough, Grasshopper Pie, Toasted Kettlecorn, S'mores, Peach Cobbler and Red Raspberry Sorbet The overall verdict is that everyone in my family felt that everything they tried was very fresh and creamy. Some personal highlights, the Peach Cobbler was very creative and on the nose from a flavor perspective. I really enjoyed this one. The Red Raspberry Sorbet was super refreshing and though I know they're a creamery, honestly I wish they had more sorbets! The Summer Berry was quite pleasant as well and very seasonally appropriate. The Toasted Kettlecorn is an honorable mention because it was very unique and was reminiscent of salted caramel (in a popcorn sort of way). This one was one of my bf's favorites from the flight. My sister's bf got a cheese flight as well and he was very happy with the ones he had. Italian herb seemed to be the favorite (a hard cheese) and he also enjoyed a five year aged cheese which he described as funky (but in a good way). We did take a peek at the cows so see attached pics! All in all, if you're ever passing through or in the area going to Watkins Glen State Park, you have to make the stop, it'll definitely be worth it!
We visited for ice cream during our trip to the Finger Lakes on an inclement weather day. We had heard great things about their ice cream and cheese flights, and knowing that the ice cream would be divine coming right from the source on a farm, we had to stop. Shtayburne is nicely situated right on a main drag with wineries, so it's easy to get to. They have ample parking but a fairly small dining area. Luckily, we were able to snag seats but on a summer day, I could imagine it would be hard to find seating (although probably easy to walk around outside and enjoy your treats). We wound up just getting scoops instead of the flight, and we focused on just ice cream instead of cheese. Their flavor offerings included some unique flavors (like strawberry jalapeno) but also more classic flavors (like vanilla and maple walnut). I got a regular scoop in a cup, and I was happy that I could split flavors (being as indecisive as I am, this is always a welcome perk). I opted for the key lime and the coffee heath crunch. The quality of the ice cream was so high - you can tell they use their farm-fresh ingredients to make a top notch product. I wish the scoops had more "stuff" in them to give more crunch and texture, but the scoops themselves were so creamy and light, making for an excellent treat. My husband opted for the red raspberry crunch and the s'mores in a waffle cone, which he also enjoyed. At $4 for a regular scoop (+$1 for a waffle cone), it's a great deal for high quality, farm-fresh ice cream. I would highly recommend Shtayburne for anyone looking for a sweet treat during their visits to the Finger Lakes. I would love to make it back to try a flight and some cheese!
Perfect pit stop after leaving nearby state park! Dog friendly, lots of outdoor seating (& some indoor), and incredible cheese & ice cream options. They also sell some packaged meats, honey, jams, crackers as well as all of their cheeses and ice creams to go. Their tasting boards come with crackers and jams as well. This was perfect for two of us to share the 12 option and try many different options. The portions were perfect for sharing. Their sweet dog welcomed us when we got there & it was fun to see the cows eating off to the side. Please take the time to support this local farm, the woman inside was very kind and patient as I struggled choosing my options and offered her recommendations to help! Our faves were the Rosemary Quark & Garlic cheddars & PB ice cream. Thank you! read more
Such a fun ice cream and cheese experience. You get to do a flight of a mix of ice cream and cheeses with either 4, 8 or 12 options. The ice cream was creamy and delicious. The star for me was the roasted garlic cheese spread and while I bought one, I would have bought even more since I devoured it in 2 sittings. Inside the shop is extremely tight with a couple tables and a restroom but lots of seating outside on the farm. They had a small orchard and some cows to go greet as well. Overall, definitely recommend for a true foodie experience. read more

Such a fun experience! So many fun flavors of icecream and different cheeses! Not to mention the adorable cows!! We tried the flight of 8-- 5 icecreams and 3 cheeses. For icecream we tasted the purple cow, peach cobbler, cookies and cream, black cherry chocolate, and the coffee heath crunch. My favorite was the coffee flavor- unlike other coffee icecreams I've had, this coffee had a much more robust and richer flavor profile. I liked cookies and cram-- always a classic. The cherry flavor was a tad too artificial for my liking. Purple cow was fine- very similar to the Cornell Dairy flavor- both are good though! I liked the peach cobbler flavor though wish there were more of the mix-ins. For cheeses, we tasted the butter garlic cheddar curds, the signature Summit Cheddar, and the plain quark. The garlic cheddar curds were so good, I took a bag home with me! Summit cheddar had a nice nutty flavor, not too 'sharp' though. The quark was interesting... it had a rather mild flavor and interesting texture (similar to boursin). I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. I also took home a bag of the tomato basil cheese curds which I didn't like as much as the garlic ones. The tomato ones had a very subtle flavor-- too subtle. There was a line when we got there though it moves relatively quickly and is definitely worth the wait! Overall, I had so much fun picking out so many icecreams and cheeses to taste as well as seeing the cows! I would highly recommend Shtayburne Farm! read more

Ice cream and cheese flights, no need to say more, but I will. You can mix and match a flight of 4,8, or 12 cheeses/ice creams. We all got a flight and everyone loved it. There wasn't anything that didn't taste delicious. Go there hungry and try everything!!! Also, buy cheese there. It's very reasonably priced and other places (wineries, etc.) sell it, but at a markup. read more

The cheese and ice cream flight was such a treat on a hot day. We were so impressed with how delicious everything was. The wooden holder was rustic and stylish. read more
A great stop that had a wonderful cheese and ice cream selection. The flight that we purchased had both cheese and ice cream on it. The list you could choose from allows 4, 8 or 12 items. We were additionally lucky by having one of the very friendly barn cats assist us in sampling the items. read more

Stop by if you can, I promise you won't regret it! They have ice cream flights and cheese flights!! Everything is made on the farm and I believe it's made by the Amish. The flights are great if you want to try the ice cream or even cheese. The ice cream was really good quality, it wasn't overly sweet and you can taste the ingredients. One of the samples we ended up getting was the peach cobbler, the peach was fresh. I love ice cream, and this is one of the cleanest ice creams I've had in a while. I ended up buying some cheese and hot sauce. read more

Family owned dairy farm offering cheeses and ice cream. We order the 12 flight. Sampled cheddars, curd and their Quark cheese - delicious soft cheese spread. The ice cream flavors were unique and also delicious. Friendly staff. Our only negative and why I'm giving 4 stars and not 5. It was very HOT the day of our visit. We walked up to see the calves and noticed that many did not have water. I told the owner inside. We returned 2 hours later and their water buckets were still empty. It takes nothing away from a human to be kind to an animal. read more

Dreamy creamery--say that 10 times fast! This cute little creamery is a must see. If you like cheese and/or ice cream, you wont be disappointed! Bountiful varieties and flavors of both cheese and ice cream here, you can't go wrong. You can eat in their small tent outside (it was a rainy day) or take it to go! They also have drinks and various knickknacks inside for purchase. Also--if you happen to be a cat lover, this place has a bunch of adorable little tuxedo kittens running around that are happy to help you with any left overs you might want to share! read more
What an amazing find! We ordered a flight of ice cream as well as a flight of cheeses. All were high quality and had great flavor and texture. My only disappointment was that one of the ice cream flavors I got in the flight was cookie dough and there was no cookie dough in it, however the vanilla flavor was still good. We also were able to walk around the farm and see the cows. They even said our dog could come with us to visit the cows. Beautiful views and peaceful, relaxing outdoor ambience with nice outdoor patio to enjoy the delicious food. It was perfect for an afternoon snack, highly recommend! read more
Yummmmm! Cheese and ice cream, couldn't ask for a better combo Buffalo cheese was my favorite cheese flavor and the cotton candy and raspberry ice cream were my top 2. My friend was obsessed with the kettle corn ice cream. Must try hidden gem! read more

Stopped in on a whim & ended up staying for a cheese and ice cream tasting. The staff was friendly and the tasting was delicious. Very neat to see the cheese making happening inside, if you're lucky. We went during the cold months and an outdoor heated set up was available to enjoy your tasting- a real rustic/country vibe, but cute. The place is literally on a farm I don't think you can get much more authentic/fresh. Bottom line: visit for a tasting (maybe leave your dairy-free/oat-milk friends home) & take home your favorites (maybe bring a cooler). read more

This is a Mennonite farm that sells amazing cheese and ice cream flights! The kettle corn ice cream was a surprise favorite along with the horseradish cheese. They have a couple of farm cats that roam free and love people and ice cream, so that kept the kids busy. It was a pleasant surprise in between vineyard visits. Great place! read more
