Connecticut Ice Cream Shop Highlighted for Best Ice Cream Sandwich

There are always a few favorites in the ice cream department when it comes to our state.

You'll always hear about Rich Farms, Ferris Acres, even Stew Leonard's ice cream. We are spoiled when it comes to ice cream and many Connecticut residents don't take that for granted.

I came across a post that talked about the best ice cream sandwich and it was from an ice cream shop located on the coast of Connecticut. The ice cream shop highlighted was Michael's Dairy in New London. Michael's Dairy has been open for over 80 years serving as a local favorite. It's been a constant for local families for generations. The ice cream shop was acquired by Mitchell College in 2006 with proceeds going to the students.

While I was scrolling around on Instagram, a video from Travel Gram with Laura B popped up about the best ice cream sandwich in Connecticut. The ice cream sandwich showed looked to die for and instantly caught my eye.

She talked about how everything about the ice cream sandwich was fresh. It had 2 cookies on the outside and homemade ice cream in the middle. She said that the cookies on the outside were huge and easily half a pound each with a generous scoop right in the middle.

I've never heard of Michael's Dairy before. I don't know if I live under a rock or what. That ice cream sandwich looks actually amazing and now I will need to make a necessary visit to get my hands on one of those. If you're looking to take a trip over there, it is located at 629 Montauk Ave in New London.
