Calder Brothers Dairy is a charming destination that offers high-quality products and an old-fashioned atmosphere. The parlor is a highlight, with friendly staff, including a cashier who is always willing to receive a tip. The store offers a range of products, including sweet potato pie, coconut pies, and red velvet cake. Customers praise the flavorful milk, describing it as tasting like milk from childhood, with their chocolate milk compared to drinkable Breyers chocolate ice cream. Their Cream line (unhomogenized) milk is appreciated for its great flavor, thanks to globs of milk fat that add richness. Prices are comparable to top-tier dairies, making it a popular choice for milk, half and half, butter, and eggs, all known for their great taste and quality. The chocolate milk and cottage cheese are highly recommended, with some calling the cottage cheese the Rolls-Royce of its kind. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the store maintains a sense of last-century quality, flavor, and character.
