Take the trip out to the Kingston countryside to this family-owned creamery that makes its own ice cream using milk from grass‑fed, rotationally grazed cows.

This beloved ice cream store that looks like a storybook castle—complete with a tower and flag—has been serving their ice cream made with Ontario dairy since 1910. Their ice creams are made fresh with 100% Canadian cream, handed out in big portions at very affordable prices. They offer classic flavours from mint chip to birthday cake. You can also pick up some milk, cheese, and butter from their freezer section.
