The Story

The sweet scent of homemade ice cream mingles with the fresh country air, welcoming you to Richardson's in Middleton. Sunlight streams into the cheerful parlor, beckoning you to savor a scoop (or two!) of creamy perfection churned right on this very farm. Every delightful spoonful feels like a step back to simpler, sweeter times, a true taste of old-fashioned Americana.

    A wonderful treat for National Ice Cream Day! Our encounter was incredible as we had many questions about what the names were, this is the only drawback if you are new or do not know. She was patient and kind and we selected Blueberry Pie and Graham Central Station. We enjoyed the treat as we walked around and looked at the animals in the back. A nice place with a lower price than what is around. Excellent flavors that hit just right!

    Oh my God, I absolutely can’t even with Richardson’s Ice Cream! The ice creams here are always perfect;so creamy, rich, and full of flavor. Honestly, it’s the best ice cream I’ve had in Massachusetts. Every scoop is super indulgent and totally worth it. The line can get a little long sometimes, but trust me; it’s absolutely worth the wait. Every visit is a good decision, and you definitely deserve a treat like this!

    I’ve been coming to Richardson’s ever since I moved near here. Never once have I left feeling unsatisfied due to the sheer excellence of their work. The staff are so polite, ordering is easy, and best of all, the ice cream is absolutely delicious. It’s the perfect place to come on a hot summer’s day to walk around the farm, enjoying a tasty cone. I’ve tried multiple flavors and they are all spectacular. This has been my favorite ice cream shop for years and will continue to be. Get a treat here, you won’t be disappointed whatsoever!

    Close friends took us here as their favorite close to home ice cream spot, and both they, and these reviews, didn’t lie! Wow! 🤩 the line was out the door and the place was PACKED! But it moved fast. You could see why. When you see this many people you want to assume it must be good but hope it’s living up to the hype, and it surely did! You can see how they’ve stayed around since 1695!!! Wow! They cracked the code and keep executing it and it’s wonderful. All the ice creams and sorbets we got were out of this world delicious! I really liked the raspberry sorbet! It was a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness but felt like “cold stone creamery” but it was sorbet! Was wicked cool and wicked good! 🤤 🍨 our other ice creams were great and was worth the wait. They have any flavor you could think of. It’d take effort to be disappointed here! The staff was polite, attentive, and friendly. Really nice establishment! I’d recommend anyone come from Near and far!
