They offer both traditional ice cream and soft serve, with a wide variety of flavors and huge scoops. There's some indoor seating and a spacious deck with a lovely view--perfect for enjoying your treat on a sunny day. Service is fast and friendly, and there's plenty of parking available. Conveniently located on the way in or out of Farmington, this place truly exceeds expectations. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is welcoming.

**This is an updated to a previous review I did back in March of 2024**…read more My Dad's place continues to be my family's go-to local restaurant. My wife and I recently joined their Mug Club which had a very reasonable price to join and the mugs will be a great keepsake. I realized I left 4-stars before as a result of the handicap parking experience, but the quality of the food, the amazing personalities and customer service from the staff and having sat down and talked with the owners they deserve all five stars. The presence on social media is well received and they keep their consumers well informed of menu changes, specials, live music and engage regularly with comments. The food continues to be impressive especially their appetizers. The dunker dads are a nice fried dough style bread bite (made from their pizza dough I believe) dressed in a parmesan dusting with side of both marinara and their house made Alfredo sauce. Their burgers are phenomenal, their pizza is a family favorite and they do offer a vegan cheese so I can indulge in some of their dinner favorites that involve cheese. If you are int he Livermore Falls, Jay, Wilton area, you HAVE to take a ride and try My Dad's place. They have some parking near the building and across the street is additional parking. If you want to beat their dinner crowd, especially on Friday/Saturday you need to be there before 5pm and maybe earlier if they are having live music on their deck where there is an additional bar.

We were told they make all their own ice cream, which is impressive seeing how many flavors they offer. The woman at the window was hilarious. When we told her we were from Orlando, she said, "How did you find Wayne, Maine? Haha! They even sell stickers that say, "Where the hell is Wayne, Maine?" They have the best tables out back by the river where you can enjoy your ice cream too. Plus the cleanest porta-potty. We didn't have time to stay, but would have loved to visit their gift shop. We're happy we met you, Wayne!

I'm glad the Ice Cream Shoppe bought this location to continue providing treats for the area. The selection of ice cream flavors is one of the largest lists I have seen in a long time in this general area. Most of the ice cream is not locally made, it would be almost impossible for the amount of flavors they offer. One thing you can't forget, it is a locally owned business and employs great staff members from the area. The service was very friendly, upbeat and efficient. They were so welcoming! The ambiance is pretty similar to when it was Honeycone Social. Very casual and a place to eat, chat, play a game and just relax. We really enjoyed our time and felt bad, we stayed a little pass closing, finishing up our card game and sundaes. They didn't seem phased by it. We never once felt rushed, although we were trying to hurry. I recommend this place for all ages. They have milk free options as well. When the weather is nicer, they kept the wonderful outdoor seating areas as well.

Owner operated and staffed, it's a small business you can support, the items come from their Farm two miles from the stand! They carry everything for your meal preparation needs are. Stocking seasonal produce, local favorites, and state favorites. We arrived just after the flags were hoisted that they were open. Plenty of parking and handicap accessible. Store is perfect sized with ample walking and items displayed at arms length. A farm stand decorated with signage and pictures. Owner greeted us and asked if she could help us find anything, we were looking in the bakery case and did not see the rolls we've heard so much about. It's Sunday and it's known as cinnamon roll day; they are displayed and served in the coffee room, around the corner. We were so early the rolls had not come out yet. With in three minutes they came out hot with melting icing YUM!! You're choice to take a plate or to go container. Plenty of napkins and forks. We sat in our car since it was a cold fall morning to enjoy our treat. The dough has a nice buttery flavor, dry yet not crumbly. The cinnamon and sugar layers had the perfect amount of each that one did not over power the other. For someone who feels breakfast is not complete without bacon, I really enjoyed. $2.99 each was reasonable.

The Good: *More than just ice creams, as they also have lobstah rolls, fries, and glizzies! Didn't try so can't comment but the pics look good. *Great selection of ice cream flavors, as well as yummy soft serve. *I don't recall the prices, but I remember it being very inexpensive. However, please note we're from the SF Bay Area, so everything seems cheap to us fml *Fantastic outdoor picnic areas to eat and look at the beautiful lake. The Meh: *Service was a bit aloof, but we were there at the end of the shift, so probably just the end of the day grumps. Regardless, it was fine. *No waffle cones, just standard cake cones. :( *Cash only The Ugly: *Like many businesses here in Rangeley they're only open seasonally from May - Octoberish (check their FB page for updates) Conclusion: A damn fine place to get your ice creams and a view. Highly recommended.
