I have been coming to the Dairy Barn since childhood with my family. The service is quick considering the long lines, and the products are always delicious. We decided to drive up from Cleveland for opening weekend. My family ordered 2 large dole whips, which we have ordered in the past. I’ve always loved the Dairy Barn for their affordable prices and good portions. I docked 1 star because this recent large dole didn’t measure up to the ones I’ve ordered before. Once the swirl was pushed down, the dole whip barely filled half the cup. Another family member mentioned how they felt a little cheated this time. Since it was opening weekend, it could have been a training issue. (The workers were so kind though). Hopefully, they haven’t changed their portions. We had already waited in line for awhile, so maybe the somewhat disappointing portion won’t be the case next time. The peanut milkshake another family member ordered was filled to the top and delicious.

Nice place to stop for cool refreshment on our little motorcycle ride. I had a yummy chocolate marshmallow shake with whipped cream and peanuts. My husband had a twist come dipped in chocolate. We sat at the outdoor tables in the cool shade. A lovely afternoon treat!

Amazing food, amazing desserts, and above and beyond service!!!
I had cheese sticks and a hurricane. Both were amazing. The manager/owner? went above and beyond to accommodate our group. It was my first time in Athens, but you can be sure that my next time will include a stop at The Dairy Barn!

Was in town for a wedding and stumbled across this place for a sweet treat. We were surprised at how busy it was on a random week night, but we received our food quickly. Strawberry shortcake was delicious!

Love the vanilla yogurt with caramel syrup. Banana split very delicious too. You can’t go wrong when you want a cold treat at The Dairy Barn in Athens. Plenty of free parking. An outdoor dining area which is covered and complete with two restrooms. Their menu includes a variety of frozen treat options. I highly recommend The Dairy Barn as the best ice cream restaurant in Athens.

This place has a bit of everything for your sweet tooth, and several other things as well. Good portion sizes as well, I could not finish my apple shortcake dessert. Prices are pretty good as well. Good value for the money. They stayed busy but the wait was not bad.

Went through the drive-through last night ordered a hot fudge sundae, large with extra hot fudge and crushed pineapples. The hot fudge sundae that’s large cost 4.25 it’s $.75 for extra hot fudge and $.75 for crushed pineapple. The lady gave me a total of 820. I got to the window and asked her why it went from 4:25 to 820. She said that I ordered a hot fudge cake. I let her know that I did not order that I ordered a hot fudge sundae. She gave me a rude attitude as she was shutting the window. She looked at another employee and said now she’s saying she ordered a hot fudge sundae very rude. here lately the rudeness has gotten to be out of hand. I only hope the owners can handle this and make it more inviting and friendly for all customers.

Hot fudge cake was amazing. Onion rings are beer battered and large. Corn dog is state fair brand and just a regular corn dog. Coke tasted a little off. Overall, very good hole in the wall. The line to the drive thru was backed out into the street the entire time. The line to the walk up ordering was also backed up but they move you through pretty quickly. Was told about this place by a co-worker that’s son just flew to town and ubered here to get a hot fudge cake for his birthday this week. Then flew the plane back. That’s impressive. There is covered outdoor seating as well as restrooms.

Great icecream. We shared a Sundae. The taste reminded me of my childhood. Super nice employees. Burger below average. Onion rings were good, though.
