Eight Cow Creamery — Restaurant in Ridgefield

8 Cow Creamery – Worth Every Scoop

8 Cow Creamery is an absolute gem. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and you can tell right away that everything is made with care. Their ice cream is some of the best I’ve ever had—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Every scoop tastes fresh and homemade, and the flavors are unique without being over the top.

I also love that they offer vegan and gluten-free options, so there’s truly something for everyone. Even better, they use locally sourced ingredients and are such an authentic part of the community, which makes each visit feel even more special.

The staff couldn’t be friendlier or more helpful, always ready with a smile and a recommendation. It’s the kind of place where you feel like a valued guest, not just a customer.

Finally—this is exactly the kind of place you want to bring the whole family after a high school game, concert, or event. Quality ingredients, amazing flavors, and excellent service make this a spot I’ll happily return to...

If you all put in at least one sugar-free option I'll change this to five stars.

Edit: You don't need to provide a "natural" sugar free option. Plenty of artificial sweeteners are safe to use and taste great. Moreover, sugar is "natural" and its...

4 stars is a smidge generous. It's a cute little shop. Seems to be popular with the kiddos. It was our second time. Tried kookie monster the first time. It was "plain" ice cream with cookie chunks, not terribly flavorful. Today I tried cookie dough. There was literally 1 piece of cookie dough. 1. I thought they'd given me vanilla. Mom got the dairy free German chocolate, said it was like a wet brownie, yet very try. I watched her scoop crumble before my eyes. My husband likes the sorbets but they are much too sweet and tart for me. Third time I'll try the hot cocoa and we'll see if there's a fourth. PS. They have wet naps for sticky fingers, love this...
