★★★★★ 5.0 Karl Brevik · Dec 2025

There is no better ice cream in the world. The fresh nature, mixed with a history of perfect flavor combinations makes this worth a cross-country Trek every year! You might think I'm kidding, but I do travel from Colorado at least once a year to experience the ice cream of the Dairy Bar. The seasonal pumpkin is one of the best flavors of ice cream I've ever had, and when December rolls around, the peppermint stick can't be beat. Nothing captures nostalgic joy while also being easy on the stomach. It is a staple for a reason, and no one should miss the chance to enjoy some ice cream. Simply the best.

Uconn Dairy Bar is a great place to go for great ice cream. We drive an hour to get there just for the ice cream. Thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner ice cream pie. It was delicious.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jim Hernandez · Oct 2023

Always in my top 5 places to get ice cream. Rich, creamy and made on premises by the students. Many choices and varieties of flavors and always including a sundae designed by the outgoing senior class. Lines look long, but plenty of friendly staff to get your ice cream out to you quickly. Plenty of seating outside to enjoy the country views and agriculture. Worth the visit!

Such a yummy ice cream shop at UCONN. This was introduced by my lovely niece who just graduated this year. There's a bar-height table and chairs inside. There was no line when we came and it moved pretty fast. The price for each scoop is very reasonable. I definitely recommend this Dairy Bar.
