They have gluten free cones and take great care to avoid cross contamination! Also the maple is awesome!

Super bummed because I usually love sweet scoops but this year they have been a disappointment. I’ve ordered peanut butter pie and toasted coconut on various occasions this summer and each time it has not been Giffords ice cream. The peanut butter pie has some sort of fudge ripple (Giffords does not have any chocolate in it) and the toasted coconut was plain and did not have the chocolate covered coconut pieces that Giffords has. It seems to me that they aren’t serving Giffords ice cream this year and are just substituting it with a different brand. I wish they would just be upfront and honest about what they’re serving!

It's easily the best scoop shop around.. Always open, rain or shine, and fair pricing for the portions. This place is always my first pick for dessert.
Fresh soft serve ice cream (Creamies) in vanilla, chocolate, twist, and my recommendation...Vermont Maple! Get it in a cone or cup. You can also do scoops of unique flavors as a cone, cup, sundae, shake, etc..I went with the Maple Creamie is a waffle con with Maple Crunchies! #NomNomNomThe waffle cone took in the Maple flavor and was delicious!Definitely recommending a stop at the Little red barn for some Creamies!@MeetMrOwl #BirdLife #OwlsTweet #worldtraveler

Very disappointing. The creemee selection is very limited (3 flavors), the hard ice cream (Gifford is sub part at best), and they are way too expensive. Also charge extra for using a card... For the price, I expected I could eat the entire thing, including the waffle cone. Sadly that is not the case because the cone has glued paper on it, so unless you enjoy eating glue, paper or both - it becomes inedible half way through. Not sure why people go here, even the staff seem miserable being there as they all act unpleasant. Will never go back there.Its definitely worth traveling father to Village scoop in Colchester or Al's French fries in South Burlington.

Probably the best ice cream shop in Essex. It has both soft serve creamee and regular scoop ice cream. Plenty of flavors to choose from, surprisingly good specialty sundaes, and flurries!
