Delicious freshly made ice cream!A must go to everyone visiting uconn!All of the ice cream made at the dairy bar is made from fresh milk of the dozens of dairy cows that are in the barn, this gives the ice cream a delicious yet subtle fresh milk aftertaste!Delicious vanilla ice cream, and you know what they say: if they can make a great vanilla ice cream, they can make good ice creamI recommend the chocolate fudge and the Oreo ice creamAnd of course, my favorite:VanillaDefinitely a place to check it out!
They have cows right there and everything is super fresh. Everytime I visit my former college I have to stop here.This time I went with the Icecream Nachos. What are Icecream Nachos you ask??? Well they say a picture is worth a thousand words so I took one and will let the picture do the talking. Seriously though its basically a broken waffle cone with 3 scoops and a bunch of toppings plus whipped cream and finished off with a cherry on top. I had a bit of a sugar coma upon eating it but it was well worth it.If you ever get a chance to come to UConn please do. Its a beautiful campus to walk around. And once you work up an appetite there are so many amazing college food experiences to try. But of course no trip is complete without a stop at the Dairy Bar. Amazing icecream, friendly staff, and the cows are cool too.Joe PeoplesMusician, Traveler, Foodie**Listen to me on Spotify or YouTube**Or wherever you get your music
Great ice cream. I ate so much, my diet will takes weeks to recover, but I still declare it to have been worth it.Also, UConn was nice.
I visited UCONN dairy bar along with my family. I have been going there for years. They make their own ice cream and no matter what flavor you choose, it is totally delicious!!! You might have to wait in line for a few minutes but trust me, its a very popular spot and totally worth any wait you have. Very efficient staff and just a great place to go for ice cream with the family. They have outside tables and benches so you dont just have to get your order and leave. You can sit down outside and talk all the time you want. I am willing to bet that if you go there, you will return many times as I have and will go back there many more times in the future!!!
Nice chocolate ice cream if you don’t like it very sweet! Blueberry cheesecake is very very sweet and yummy! Nice trek to get good view of the farm animals close by, very well maintained!
The place was packed - lines out the door. I will say they have a very efficient way to get customers through. I would have given a better score, however the portions have shrunk greatly and the outside trash overflowed everywhere. Of course this attracted bees - just generally unpleasant to be there.
Good ice cream. Not the best. But like good tho. Its pretty much what you would expect.
Ive heard a ton about this Dairy Bar and today was the first time I walked through the doors. To my surprise, I indulged in what I would describe as heavenly delicious ice cream - especially on a hot and humid summer afternoon. This dairy bar for sure lived up to its hype and for any passing through travelers, yall need to pit-stop this spot bc where else are you going to get such a product thats made in house from the pastures across the lot!I hope that by the end of this post, youd have already pulled into the parking lot and are making your way inside!Cheers!
Ice cream is the best around. Very creamy. Husky tracks is a good option if its your first time
Amazing ice cream. I’ve been coming here for like 20 years. It’s delicious. Ice cream made on sight. Sometimes they are in the process of making it and you can watch. The flavors are great, a pretty good selection. They also have specials. They offer a bunch of pints and other dairy things to go. They have giant ice cream cookie sandwiches too!
Delicious ice cream but lately their card readers havent worked so they only accept cash. Unfortunately, that kept us from getting ice cream.
The ice cream is amazing and the prices cant be beat. Highly recommended if youre ever in the area and enjoy an ice cream treat!
Awesome place! Great ice cream and fantastic service.
Their ice cream is arguably one of the best in the area. Worth going just for it.
A UConn classic. Great home made ice cream with large portions. There is a wide variety of flavors and toppings making the Dairy Bar a must stop for anyone visiting UConn. Great views of Horsebarn hill and plenty of outdoor picnic tables to enjoy your ice cream at. They also offer a wide variety of to go options such as gallons of ice cream and ice cream cakes.
Great ice cream busy place! Good portions and price!
Mindbogglingly good! I absolutely love UConn Dairy Bars ice cream. They have a wide selection of ice cream flavors, of which my all-time favourites are Chocolate Brownie Fudge and Coffee Espresso Crunch. Milkshake as well as ice cream soda, float, cake are also available. There is also a UConn Diary Bar Ice Cream Truck that is parked by the library located in the centre of the campus, making it very convenient to grab your sweet treat before or after lecture.
Fantastic ice cream. Cant recommend it enough. You want ice cream this is the place to go.
The ice cream are so delicious, only place excellent I try in different places put UCONN ice cream the best of the best.
Best ice cream in the world, seriously. Perfect black raspberry. Its just incredible
Yummy, memories, great scenery. Not enough seating. Clean, fast & entertaining.
Adequate ice cream. Its reputation is better than the actual ice cream. But the ice cream is good enough. Ben & Jerrys blows it away, but its fine.
Excellent place for ice cream and dairy products
Ice cream was ok, but service was very slow. I was surprised at the lack of variety in flavours.
The mint chip ice cream was delicious! The dairy bar offers such a wide selection of ice cream flavors that they switch up regularly.
Uconn made ice cream. Husky tracks, blueberry cheesecake, vanilla salted caramel, you can also get buckets and cookie sandwiches. Lots of benches outside to sit on
The ice cream is so good and so worth the wait or the drive. Some of the best ice cream (and to be honest, I eat wayyyy too much ice cream)
I think everyone will agree with me that this is probably of the top 5 ice creams in the US
If you are at UConn, don’t miss the delicious ice cream, they have many flavors, the chocolate crunch coffee 👍🏽👍🏽
Some of the best ice cream in eastern Connecticut. Made on-site at the UConn campus. Lots of flavors, some seasonal, and different toppings available. Portions are generous and its a thick and flavorful creamery style of ice cream. Very rich. Its still open for curbside pickup (this review written during pandemic) and is definitely worth a stop if youre near University of Connecticut and enjoy ice cream.
Not cheap, but great ice cream. Highly suggest the coffee milk shake made with coffee espresso crunch ice cream! YUM!
Great quality ice cream for a reasonable price.Benches to sit outside.
The best ice cream you can get. Fight me!
Our favorite ice cream! Any time we are near UCONN we make sure to stop by to get some ice cream and see the cows.
Clean facility and the ice cream was delicious! Took a ride though to look at the farm animals afterwards.
Great ice cream! The line moves pretty quickly. No picnic tables, but probably due to COVID.
Delightful dairy! A must stop while traveling to UCONN! DELICIOUS!!!
Coffee crunch was awful. So many chocolate covered coffee beans and it just tasted like instant coffee ice cream.Maple walnut is always good, though.
Not that great. I should have gone to Bananas in Wallingford or Big Dipper in Prospect.
Enjoy! their very own ice cream
The best ice cream in the state! Everything is made at UConn. They also have ice cream cakes, cupcakes, slices, and containers of their ice cream for you to take home as well. They are constantly updating their flavors and have themed ones. Everything they make is good and their milkshakes are unlike any other. If youre in the area and hankering for ice cream this should definitely be your top choice.
Great ice cream and easy to order. The staff is mostly the college students and they are really easy going.
Best ice cream in New England!
I went there to get some of their cheese, but they were all out.
Honestly the best ice cream i ever had.
Only open for take out with very limited choices. No sundaes or toppings of any kind, guess the toppings have chance of covid contamination but the ice cream does not?
The line is socially distanced and limits the number of people inside. The line went much quicker than expected!
So good. Order from your phone and they bring it out for you.
Best Ice Cream in Connecticut.
Prices could be a little better
Best ice cream in town!
Ice cream as always was AMAZING!!! However the wait was over an hr and you have to order online and they bring it out; no one is allowed inside.
Been in UConn for 6 years, and thats the first place I will mention if anyone ask me about UConn.
Amazing ice cream at a great price
Great love the ice-cream there.
Great ice cream
It is my favorite ice cream stop.I only wish they had Bing Cherry 🍒 Vanilla. However no matter what you order it will be delicious. Delivery to the car is Painless
Best ice cream around.
Best ice cream in ct.
Ice cream is amazing!
Great taste, beautiful location, quick service, convenient curbside pickup, and our very own UConn!
Excellent Ice Cream! Online order only. Staff very Friendly. Worth the trip from Bloomfield.
If you love sweet ice cream go here this is your place to get really good ice cream in CT but if you’re like me who doesn’t like sweet ice cream Who still liked the old fashion creamy experience go to Arethusa Farm Dairy Ice cream Place these are the best two places in Connecticut for ice cream. But really Great school with many excellent programs. Definitely will be looking here for college.
The best ice cream in CT!
The best ice cream you could ever have!
Happy naturally-grazing cows provide the milk for the fresh ice cream created at the Dairy Bar. Always delicious!
Best ice cream in the northeast yum yum
Best ice cream place out there! I first tried the ice cream here when I was seven and immediately determined that I would be attending UConn for college (because of the ice cream), and I did! It was out of state but the ice cream made the extra tuition worth it! I came here loyally as a student and still find time to visit as an alumni. The ice cream is creamy, sweet, perfect, and to top it all off actually affordable compared to most ice cream places. I would suggest coming here even if you have to drive long distance or wait in a line, its worth it every time!
Went here last fall while driving back from a day trip. It was good. There were a lot of people, mostly college students, but the line move very quickly. The staff was great.
This was my 1st visit to the dairy bar. I experienced a friendly and helpful staff. The cashier let me know there go to flavors by customers. Coconut being one of them. I must say it was Delicious! I also tried their Maple Walnut it was great as well. Very fresh. Ill be back soon
Best icecream ever
Ordered our ice cream at 5:10, got a confirmation email saying we placed the order 40 minutes later even though we placed it before 5:30. After waiting an hour for ice cream their closed sign came on and we were told our order never processed. Lady inside was nice enough to help with getting a refund, but waiting an hour for ice cream is ridiculous even during a pandemic when every other restaurant in the area doesnt have the wait times. We were the only people there starting at 5:00 so there was no reason for the order to take 40 minutes to process and have no alternative to getting an order or getting in contact with the store.
Amazing ice cream
Absolutely delicious!!
Love the ice cream in Dairy Bar!
I love💘
Ice cream is delish. Do the fudge brownie.
There is no better ice cream!
I absolutely love the Dairy Bar! A must see if you are in the area! The ice cream is so rich and is made from cream from the cows on campus. Its a cute little shop and after we ate our huge scoops we went for a scenic walk around the area to see the cows and a great view of the UConn campus. Great way to burn off the calories :) The girl who did my ice cream was super personable. I suggest the banana chocolate chip!
This place is good if you like bars but arent old enough to go to real ones. The dairy one is a good alternative. You can really taste the fresh cowness in this pure cream creation. I give it 8/10 dry hay bails
Spend all your sugar allowances here!
Good New England ice cream! I suffered through 10 years of living in Georgia. Its wonderful to be back where ice cream is worth eating.Flavors change for the season but they keep some standbys. You can buy half gallons for $8 - give 24 hours notice and theyll pack any flavor you want!
