2004 Best Ice Cream, South

Farfar’s

Maybe you hate the beach. Maybe beautiful homes and manicured lawns make you sick. If you’re an ice cream lover, you still have one great reason to go to Duxbury: Farfar’s. It’s where the creamiest, smoothest ice cream gets doled out in such pure and intense flavors as peanut butter, banana, and ginger. And the sundaes? They’re the object of weekly pilgrimages from all over the state and one of the region’s greatest (frozen) assets.
