The Brown Cow Café was inspired by our Jersey cow, Blossom.  We almost named it Blossom’s Café but since ice cream, not flowers, was going to be our featured product, we went with The Brown Cow Café. 

The Brown Cow Café on Ekonk Hill opened in April 2006, offering premium ice cream, fresh from the farm.  It was an immediate hit with customers, many claiming it to be the best ice cream they’ve ever had!  Blossom enjoyed all the attention from the 16,000 visitors she had in the first year!

We have been adding items to the menu since we opened the Café.  We plan to continue to build on the Brown Cow Café as a relaxing country place where you can enjoy good food with friends all year long.

Food

Duetchmacher Hot Dogs & Jumbo (1/2 pound) Hot Dogs

Thanksgiving Sandwich - Just like those awesome sandwiches made with the holiday leftovers.  The Thanksgiving Sandwich is made with roasted turkey breast, stuffing, cranberry sauce and mayo on a hearty white or whole grain bread and served with chips and a pickle.

Hot Gobbler Sundae – No, it’s not ice cream!  This delicious dish hits the spot on a chilly fall afternoon.  It’s made with a mound of mashed potatoes topped with roasted turkey breast, stuffing, gravy, and topped off with a ball of cranberry sauce.  A taste of Thanksgiving in a bowl!
