They even have a smaller but roomy section solely designated for serving up delicious scoops of ice cream. The only disappointment is that while The Milk House statistically ranks as the #17 ice cream shop in the U.S., and the charm is absolutely there, the ice cream itself is pretty unimpressive. The quality of the product is good, but the ice cream flavoring itself leaves much to be desired. Don't let that stop you from coming in, though. It's a worthy experience just off the interstate for traveling families.

Great food, great service. I'm glad we stopped and tried it. 100% would recommend. Can't wait to go…read moreagain.

They have the blue play dough ice cream I remember from my child hood, two different cherry ice creams (I liked the tart one best), the pistachio almond is to die for, butter pecan is amazing, black Walnut is the best I've ever had, a very chocolatey one was good (the owners fav), sooo many good flavors.

Samples are abundant which is great at helping make the proper selections. Class act from everyone I have meant. Bonus you can see the cows and pet them as well. It was a lot of fun.
