Ice Cream Wars: Newtown Readers Dish on the Coolest Scoops in Town

NEWTOWN, CT — When the weather warms up in Newtown, one burning question is on everyone's minds - where can I get the best ice cream around here? We asked, and you all certainly had plenty to say about your favorite frosty treats. The great ice cream debate rages on, with a few front-runners emerging as the top go-to spots.

In this epic battle, two locally-made legends came out as the heavy hitters - Ferris Acres Creamery and Holy Cow. The challenger, Ferris Acres, has its fans who appreciate the farm-fresh factor. As one reader puts it, "The creamy texture, flavor and variety" at Ferris just can't be beat according to the Newtown resident. Another Sandy Hook fan is clearly smitten, gushing "Ferris Acres Creamery has the creamiest, best well balanced flavors. And the selection is mighty, the atmosphere perfect!"

But Holy Cow has some serious moo-scle as well, with supporters cheering things like "Their ice cream is delicious and not too rich" and "Amazing Vanilla soft serve and Amazing service!" One generous patron even highlights Holy Cow's "EXTREMELY generous" spirit, donating to local events and organizations.

The smackdown between these two titans grew so heated, some readers played Switzerland, unable to take sides. "Hands down... the Creamery, high fat content means creamier... flavors for anyone's pallet... great to be on the farm (lines are an issue though)," one neutral party relayed, acknowledging the appeal of both camps.

As the chaotic chatter continues, a few faraway contenders snuck in some surprises as well. One rogue fan rallied for the "amazing gelato" at Newbury Gelato in Danbury. Another called an audible for Rich Farm in Oxford - "Rich farms has the creamiest, best well balanced flavors. And the selection is mighty, the atmosphere perfect!"

No matter where your ice cream allegiances lie, one thing is certain - this sweet battle is heating up as the summer months approach. The chaos and controversy are all part of the fun as we scream for the best ice cream Newtown has to offer. Grab a spoon and pick your side - things are about to get sticky!
