COWS Queen St

Souvenirs are much cheaper here compared to the Anne of Green Gables shop. There are lots of cute items, plus the ice cream is incredibly creamy. It makes sense why people say it’s the most delicious ice cream in the Atlantic provinces.

They marked themselves “Canada’s Best Iced Cream”. For this sundae ($9CAD 2025) I just tried, they successfully achieve the honer of the best iced cream in Canada. The waffle base are produced in store by themselves with strong almond taste which you could smell it when entering. 100% local milk as main ingredients to make their style’s iced cream tasted creamy smooth and fully of milk flavour but non of other milk’s over fatty taste. They have lots of side products in the whole store which good for travelling and souvenirs bringing back for friends or families. One of the MUST GO place in PEI. I strongly recommend to visit no matter you like iced cream or not.

I ate my body weight in ice cream at this store. My favorite flavor was the sea salt caramel/toffee flavor and my least favourite was strawberry (too mild of a flavor imo). I legit went everyday and in pretty sure the employees recognized me too lol Highly recommend!

No trip to Charlottetown is complete without a stop at COWS Ice Cream, and it absolutely lives up to the hype. The ice cream is rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor, made right here on Prince Edward Island. Every scoop tastes homemade and perfectly balanced — not too sweet, just pure indulgence. The waffle cones are freshly made and buttery crisp, the kind that makes the whole shop smell amazing. Whether you go classic with Wowie Cowie or adventurous with one of their limited-edition flavors, you really can’t go wrong. In the short time I spent in Canada this fall I indulged in the Cownadian Maple Crunch, Chunky Chocolate Mint, Cookie Dough and the Fluff N’ Udder. First… Let’s talk about the ice cream in general. I LOVE ice cream. This is by far some of the best I have ever had. I am also one who tends to stick to their favorites but as you will see below I tried lots of flavors and they were all worthy of becoming my next forever order. Cownadian Maple Crunch: this is sweet creamy and smooth. Almost like maple syrup but not so sugary you could not eat it. The flavor is so pronounced and natural not fake. The cookie bites add nice texture and crunch. If you have that maple hankering this is a great choice. Chunky Chocolate Mint: The flavor was bold and refreshing, with the perfect balance of cool mint and rich chocolate chunks that melt just enough to blend into every bite. Good crunch to the chunks balance velvety smooth ice cream to bonus ingredients. Fluff ’N Udder: Pure fun in a cone! Creamy chocolate and peanut butter ice cream swirled with ribbons of marshmallow fluff. It’s rich, nostalgic, and perfectly balanced — like a peanut butter cup meets a s’more. Fantastic texture…cold crisp mini PB cuts and sticky soft marshmallow. It was Udderly Amazing. Cookie Dough: Thick, buttery chunks of dough in COWS’ signature ultra-creamy vanilla base. It wasn’t just the perfect balance but the sheer amount of dough bites…you could bake a sheet of cookies if you pulled these out. Every bite reminded me why COWS is a PEI icon. Don’t forget the finishing touch; the cone! Remember that waffle smell I mentioned it’s the result of a fresh house-made waffle cone that’s warm, crisp, and perfectly sweet. I did the one with jimmies (sprinkles) on the outside. Fabulous addition. COWS is a fun, nostalgic stop that captures the island’s charm in every lick. COWS is a true PEI institution — delicious, playful, and undeniably Canadian.

This place is amazing. A nice gift store attached to the best ice cream shop in Charlottetown, Canada. The ice cream melts in your mouth. Cold and fresh. Make sure you get a scoop. Oh yeah the customer service is on point.

Delicious Ice cream and the waffle cones were surprisingly not too sweet. Great spot to get desserts!!

I recently discovered cows ice cream. And I can say that best in the country. It is literally worth the money. Waffle’s made in the store. May favourite flavour moo York cheesecake and maple walnut. Now I ll be looking for their locations everywhere.

Great variety of Ice cream flavors. Not just your standard flavours but it great combinations. The waffle cones are delicious, but if you don't like ice cream in a cone they offer cups too.
