The Barking Cow

Fantastic ice cream flavors and great food. Very friendly staff! Delicious Wraps - can you tell I love this place? Get a 5 flavor sample if you can't decide because you have lots to choose from.

Small town creamery with a big menu of ice cream treats. And food too! We started with a Pop Rock Slushie, burger and fries, and a few games of air hockey... I was frozen with indecision on the ice cream. A flight of 5 flavors for $5 was tempting, Cherry amaretto brownie sundae (homemade brownie!), Sweet and Salty sundae with chips both sounded yummy but I went with the PB Brownie Cookie dough shake. I got the small and only managed half. The flavor selection is amazing including carrot cake, raspberry Creme brûlée, amaretto cherry, butterfly kisses.... it was worth the country drive out. Do check the hours before you go! They are fairly limited.

Was just passing through Gaston and stumbled upon this fantastic gem of a treat. Highly recommended 👌

Stopped in today and tried a wrap and then got some ice cream. Very cool place in downtown Gaston. Lively atmosphere and great food with small town charm.

Great service. Hot fudge brownie sundae was fantastic and enough for two people. My daughter enjoyed the cotton candy ice cream. Great atmosphere. Even had an air hockey table and a couple things for the kids to do.

Great food, friendly service, and amazing ice cream!

Awesome, taco baked potatoes. Never thought about it. It was good.!
Followed up with ICE CREAM!!!
Tomorrow gotta check out planet fitness..

Great service and great ice cream..

This will have been my 3rd trip to this location. I have had many different kinds of ice cream from many different places. And I have to say that when I come to the area this is a must have on our list. She likes the Lemon bar, and Carrot Cake so much that she wants it when we are in town. I like the All things Reece's as well as peanut butter fluff. I get these 2 together and it is an awesome treat. Love this place

Well worth the detour off I69. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff. Value for your money. Best ice cream I've had in a long time.

Amazing ice cream and large cones with great prices.

Also I now know peanut butter on a burger is 😍
I have mine without jalapenos.

They have a wide variety of flavors to choose from that are DELICIOUS and several kinds of cones and cups to choose from to make it that much better. It's definitely worth the price! I haven't tried their food yet but I plan to soon.

We love the Barking Cow! It is a wonderful family owned establishment. They have awesome customer service along with great food. Their ice cream is homemade and all of it is so good! We love all of the flavors! You will enjoy this small town restaurant and definitely go back to it again and again!

There's nothing to dislike at this cute, family run ice cream shop & cafe in Gaston. The food is fresh, handmade to order and delicious. The ice cream is decadent. It's rich, creamy and their original flavors are incredible! It's in a tiny little town on a tiny little street but this cute little shop packs huge flavor and massive amounts of fun into your visit! Go! Go now!!!!

Gaston's finest. The Barking Cow has a great selection of ice cream including some of their own flavors. A few sundaes are also available along with some real food. To be honest, we go for the ice cream. The founder has made great efforts to showcase hometown pride throughout the restaurant.

Very interesting and unique restaurant. The ice cream and food they serve is very good. The owner has put in a lot of work to ensure that the restaurant is a part of the town and not just in the town, and he has done a very good job. The Delaware county pothole ice cream is my personal favorite, and they do offer free wifi.

Amazon little ice cream shop with surprisingly good food. Everything in life is a bit more expensive these days, so expect around $8 per person for a wrap or burger, but you can still grab a baby cone or cup for under $3 and get a good amount of great ice cream.

Great food.
Great ice cream 🍦.
Friendly staff.

Nice place in the middle of a small Indiana town. Very clean inside and out and extremely polite staff. Moderate, but reasonable prices and a wide variety of flavors...probably about 24 different hand dipped flavors. Highly recommended for couples and families.

The Barking Cow is a friendly, family owned business in the small town of Gaston. Many of the flavor options available are recipes created here and can vary from day to day. Service is excellent and ice cream is excellent. Well worth the drive from anywhere.
