Love this place, I take my family here every time they visit. The ice cream is delicious and we love the animals. Puppies, goats, calves and chickens that you can pet and feed, so cute ?

A few minutes down from the Strasburg Railroad Depot is Down on the Farm Creamery! Bring the Lactaid -- this Amish run shop is dishing out some of the creamiest, richest, ice cream I have had in my entire life! We came for the ice cream, but ended up staying over an hour because my children loved their huge rainbow model train playground that they had outside the parking lot. There is also a petting zoo full of dozens of baby billy goats, pigs, and cows. I would have paid $30 per person (cry) for an experience like this back at home but all this extra fun was free 99. Lancaster, PA do it for the kidz!!!

Where else can you find double-dip homemade ice cream on a waffle cone for less than six dollars? The sheer beauty of this place alone makes it worth visiting. This is a top-notch place to bring the kids!This is a working farm. I was particularly taken by the pack of German Shepherd puppies on the farm (who had plenty of room to run around).The ice cream has a stringy quality while being almost overly sweet. Only to find out that the producers use both artificial sweeteners and high-fructose corn syrup.I’m not sure why small-scale farmers would find this necessary. The ice cream would taste better if they eliminated these products while also providing a great selling point.

The ice cream and ambiance at Cremary were both delightful, with plenty of parking available and ample space to enjoy the delicious ice cream comfortably. I visited in early February during the evening and observed many locals, indicating its popularity in the area.My visit was part of a search for an authentic spot, and I felt fortunate to have stumbled upon this place. It was a hit with the entire family.The charm of Cremary isn’t confined to its delicious ice cream and cozy atmosphere alone. The surrounding area enhances the experience with its open green spaces that invite relaxation and leisure. The presence of a children’s playground adds a joyful note, suggesting it’s a place where families can linger and children can play. With an expansive grassy field and a rustic backdrop featuring farm buildings and grazing land, Cremary feels like a delightful escape to the countryside. Its pastoral setting, complete with chickens roaming freely, offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle. It’s clear that this establishment is a gem for both locals and visitors, providing not just a treat for the taste buds but also a feast for the eyes with its serene landscape.

Awesome place! Stumbled upon the choo choo barn location and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. They told our family about the main location just a few miles away. Well kept play area, nice seating areas and a clean bathroom! The shop sells a variety of farm fresh options and of course ice cream! Lovely place :)

The ice cream is creamy and delicious. I have tried various flavors, and so far I like them all. I love that there is a playground for kids, as well as, petting/feeding animals. Great family spot!

We came to Lancaster for Sights and Sounds and were looking for some ice cream around the area. We found this nice place and to our pleasant surprise the ice cream is fantastic! It is SO FRESH and delicious, nothing like any that we have EVER had before. My favorite is the cookie dough ice cream and Java. I can say that this place has the BEST ice cream that I've had in my 38 years of living. (No exaggerations). The people that work here (might be a family that owns it?) are very pleasant. They have a nice playground outside by the animals that our kids really enjoyed. So if you're ever passing by or in the area. I highly recommend you to try this place out. You may want to bring a cooler bag to bring home some buckets because you won't find ice cream this fresh.

My daughter and I happened upon this place as I was traveling down the scenic country road looking for something to do as we were consigning some clothing items. As I turned down the long lane I had no idea what was in store for us. They had a beautiful playground with goats to feed which kept my daughter entertained. She rolled down the hills of the lush, green grass and played on the multiple playgrounds. When we went inside we were treated to some of the best ice cream I have ever had. That is saying a lot as I normally prefer soft serve over hard dipped ice cream. If you live in or are visiting Lancaster County, this place is a must try. When we were in the parlor we met a sweet couple from New Jersey who came to the place based on recommendations. I don’t blame them. Not only is it a good atmosphere outside with benches, farm animals and playground equipment; the ice cream is top notch. We live far away and will be heading into winter soon, but trust me when I say I’ll be back soon!

Great atmosphere, a long farm driveway leading to a goat pen and drive thru ice cream stand, or go into the store for some milk, cheese, root beer (new offering) and gallons of dessert. About 20 flavors to choose from for your cone.Watch the labels though, only the natural vanilla was really natural.Kid-friendliness: Goat farm with coin-machines to feed the animals.
