I had heard all about this place from friends and even with all the hype I would suggest that I agree - this is excellent ice cream. i troes the salted vinalla toffee what was a wonderful experiance. Lots of gift items to purchase there as well. Replacing lunch with ice cream is always acceptable!

On and island chock-full of amazing dairy bars (I'm jealous as an American), it takes a lot to impress me.

Cows is a well known island landmark in Charlottetown. Ice cream is delicious and they have done a good job of marketing. Great location to sit and people watch on a sunny day while you have your ice cream.

Cow's Ice Cream tastes like the homemade ice cream I had 40+ years ago. Nice to have the variety of flavours available for children-focused and adult delights.

They said their ice cream is world famous. It is good ice cream and nothing else. They charge for their factory tour. That seems lame to me.
