The Barking Cow

Too much of a good thing. There was so much hot fudge in my sundae that I couldn't eat it. The ice cream to fudge/ cherry syrup/brownie ratio was wayyy off. It was so thick and rich with fudge and syrup that I couldn't finish it. There's was very little ice cream in the equation. I chalk some of this up to the staff not knowing how to make the dessert; they referred to their recipe book. They tried though! I would return but keep my order simple. My mate was happy with his PB and Reeces Peeces concoction. The building is nostalgic and fun.

Yummy ice cream! Got the peaches flavor, and it tasted so summery. The store has such fun decor and atmosphere.

My family loves going to Barking Cow in Gaston. Great atmosphere, food and ice cream.

Sadly they have changed this sandwich and I can no longer give it the praise of its predecessor. The spicy mayo sauce and cheaper cuts of meat were a huge downfall. I can't tell you how disappointed I was the last time I ordered this. I stand by the ice cream concoctions and will still support them, just bummed I can no longer enjoy what was once a superior club sandwich.

Visiting Muncie from California someone suggested lunch here. I was skeptical since it's billed as an ice cream shop but actually the lunch was very good. Excellent presentation and preparation, spacious interior and overall our group of 6 had an excellent lunch.

Pecan pie sundae all I can say is OMG I want another! The service is great, dining room is clean and a little quirky but we came here for ice cream. Awesome little place. The other sundae was a cow pie, big brownie, ice cream, etc. served in a baking dish. Portions are a great value, I will be back to try other sundae's

WOW! I cannot say enough positive things about The Barking Cow. My experience started outside the restaurant with all the cute signs and decorations. I went around 4 on a Friday, so right around when school got out and its very obvious that people around the town love this place. There were lots of people in the restaurant when we got there and after we finished placing our order the line was super long! The employees are attentive and extremely friendly.I ordered one scoop of a chocolate flavor (I forget the exact name) in a waffle cone and it was out of this world. The one scoop was plenty and made me extremely full. I tried a few others and they were all so good, it was hard to make a decision as to which one I wanted. It is very obvious they are committed to making high-quality ice cream flavors. Although I didn't try any of their food, many people in the restaurant had food that looked very pleasing.Overall, I recommend this place to anyone looking for some delicious, homemade ice cream, in a very cute, community-oriented location. There are many games and pictures to look at, which are very entertaining. I cannot wait to come back once I am back at school and try the food as well as different ice cream flavors they offer! They also have an ice cream challenge that rewards you a free t-shirt if you succeed!

The service is great and the food and ice cream is to die for!! Definitely will be going back

Best nachos I have had in a long time. Great selection of ice cream flavors. Ice cream is great

Hometown feel. Delicious ice cream and food. Love the hometown memorabilia everywhere.
