Cornell Dairy Bar

Many flavours of gf ice cream to choose from. Servers were all very knowledgeable and they offered to scoop our ice cream from an uncontaminated tub in the back. They gave us wrapped spoons. We felt very safe here despite the many gluten foods also offered there.

The two times I visited, I said that I had Celiac and the employees immediately got me ice cream out of the back. I definitely appreciate the precaution and would love if more flavors were GF (or they could keep the GF toppings in the back too so I could get ice cream with toppings without worry of cross-contamination)!

Best ice cream ever! If you ask, they will scoop the ice cream in the back without cross contamination.

They took my order and were able to handle allergen cross contamination in the back. The ice cream was yummy and I didn’t get sick!

I was disappointed that all ice creams are processed on equipment that also processes wheat so I didn’t feel safe eating any, but they do have clear allergen info available which is good.

The ice cream at the Cornell Dairy bar is amazing. The staff are trained for allergies. They have GF cones and an allergy menu. If you tell them about your allergy they will change gloves and get you ice cream from an unopened container in the back. In the attached factory they fully clean and sanitize the equipment between flavor runs to avoid allergy contamination. I can't wait to come back!
