A little anecdote to share....when I was pregnant with my last child, who was due in September, I CRAVED Kimball Farm banana ice cream. Don't ask, maybe it was a potassium deficiency. I was in Maine for the month of august and had to drive home a few times for my doctor's appointments. I always stopped at Kimball's in Carlisle on my way back to Maine. I would have a banana ice cream cone for the road, and would also have them pack a couple of quarts to take with me. Well never mind the delicious ice cream, which would have been satisfying enough, they also packed my precious quarts in ice and plastic bags so that they would survive the trip back to Maine. They couldn't have been nicer or more understanding regarding the desires of a pregnant person! To this day I still crave that banana ice cream, and order it each and every time I go. Occasionally they are out of it, and I have to resort to some other flavor. While they are all equally creamy and amazing, nothing matches that banana for me~no nuts, just the pure natural flavor of banana. Whatever your craving, Kimball's will satisfy it! Whether you venture to Carlisle or Westford, it is well worth a trip from anywhere. The mini golf in Westford is also a nice aside, but go for the ice cream. You won't be disappointed!
Pros: best ice cream on earth
Cons: lines can be long but worth the wait
