I'm an ice cream lover, and this place was there as I was traveling. I had a maple walnut in a waffle cone. Delicious hard serve ice cream! It satisfied my craving!
Something is wrong this year. The quality has been cut in a major way. I've had ice in one half gallon, an large air pocket in another, and the Oreo ice cream is basically just vanilla now; hardly any cookies at all. Sad to say if this is the direction they're going I won't be back. I've been a customer for 28 years.
The BBQ remains mediocre and expensive.

Amazing ice cream -- that's the real reason to come here. It's expensive but worth it.
Indoor seating is very limited but outdoors is a large field with more than enough room. Lots of flowers make for a lovely atmosphere.
If you come for the BBQ you'll probably be disappointed, but isn't so bad as to avoid completely. This is an ice cream place though, first and foremost.
Hands down, Shaw's Ridge Farm has some of the best homemade ice cream in York County, Maine. Definitely try Coal Dust ... coffee with gigantic chocolate chip!
Absolutely love this place for ice cream. Our family went there last year for the first time and have only gone there since. Amazing ice cream, beautiful place, employees are super friendly. Definitely recommend.
Love this place. Best place to get ice cream. It has a nice playground for the kids and beautiful trees and gardens all around . Super worth a trip here
We stopped by for ice cream and were amazed at how beautiful it was around sunset! Absolutely stunning, paired with amazing ice cream for a really great price? Highly recommend. So highly.
I find Shaws ridge ice cream to be creamer than the other local ice cream makers. I especially love their Black Raspberry and Coffee ice cream. Plus if you like flowers they have a great flower garden to walk through and a play ground for the kids for them to burn off energy while enjoying your treat. There are also many picnic tables to sit at in the shade. It's a great place to just enjoy.
If your trips to Maine have rarely veered off of the I-95 artery, you have likely missed Shaw’s Ridge Farm, a small family-owned shop in Sanford. The Shaw family has been producing top-quality products for over 70 years and has clearly perfected the art of ice cream making. In addition to satisfying your sweet tooth, Shaw’s Ridge also boasts an adjoining bakery and BBQ barn for a full-meal experience.
Very stretchy ice cream, which was a fun texture I don't often experience. They have a lot of flavors to offer, and all the ones I tried were very good. I especially recommend the white chocolate raspberry truffle.
