Liscombe Farm - Menu

Excellent cream tea in a dairy farm. Interesting gallery where you can see the cows being milked! Plenty of room inside and out.

We loved our visit here, eating wonderfully creamy ice creams whilst watching the cows being milked by state of the art machinery. This is located just up the road from Tarr steps and has lots of seating inside and out.

Stopped here and had ice creams that were gorgeous and not too expensive either, the lovely lady making honeycomb was very friendly. Great pit stop on the way or way back from Tarr Steps. Well worth a visit for the salted caramel ice cream alone.

Called in to this ice cream parlour after seeing it on tv, great selection of ice creams with some unusual flavours. We wanted to take some tube away with us for our freezer but there was a very limited selection for this so good if you just want a cornet.

Great ice cream, rich and flavoured well. Top flavours sampled by our gang of six....... lemon sorbet, raspberry pavlova, cappuccino, mint choc chip, rum n raisin. Great watching the cows, getting milked behind the window !!! Service great, and an all round must for the summer !!

We stopped here on our way back to Tarr Steps after a long hot walk, they are producing Gelato Ice Cream type from their own cows, these are milked using an automatic milking machine that the cows walk into as when they need, this is inside the shop seen through a large glass wall fascinating to watch, ideal for children to see the Gelato was delicious.

We visited Liscombe Farm on a recent trip to Devon. This visit was the highlight of our trip. Zoe was a very attentive host and as we were obviously very interested in the robotic milking process, she spent considerable time with us. She is a great educator, very patient and enthusiastic. The location of Liscombe farm is unbeatable, the scenery gorgeous. Last but not least...the ice cream is absolutely fabulous, to die for . Thank-you ZOe!!

We visited the Tarr Steps on Exmoor and were intrigued by a sign directing us to a robotic ice cream making outlet. What a fascinating place. We watched from behind a huge window as their herd of 68 Swiss Brown cows were automatically milked by a single machine. We were told all about the process, the welfare of the herd and the making of the ice cream. And what ice cream! Delicious taste, wonderful selection and extremely friendly staff. Quite possibly the best ice we have ever tasted!

We all need to patronise local initiatives such as this and after an 8 mile hike an ice cream was just what we needed. I had a rhubarb flavour, which was OK and my wife had a grapefruit sorbet which was not. In the sorbet were bits which of which could have been gelatin but which made it distinctly unpleasant. So she took it back to the counter to complain. The girl just said oh dear , didn 't apologise, didn 't try to ascertain what the matter was and didn 't offer either a replacement (which my wife would have accepted) or a refund. In the end my wife asked for her money back which was proffered in a rather perfunctory manner. It all left a rather nasty taste in the mouth literally.
