This place is a local gem that is good! When other places are busy, we love to come and visit Cary Dairy! I came in on Wednesday, May 28, 2025. The flavors are delicious, the wait is nonexistent and they have plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy. It wasn’t the warmest evening exactly but you can never go wrong with ice cream! (Written 6-5-25)

Cary Dairy has some delicious ice cream and all the people working there are great. However, I do have a bone to pick with whoever decided to add the 'special' item of a brownie sundae to the menu. After a long ride home after picking mine up, I decided to dump it in my own bowl for better handelage while watching tv on the couch. This (pictured) is what my jaw dropped open to. How dare you disrespect the brownie lovers or the world, the people who order this delicious...

Their Earl Grey ice cream and their lemon poppy seed ice cream are to die for. Smooth, creamy, light and refreshing. Sad because they do not always have these flavors.
