Forest Farm - The Organic Dairy in Aberdeenshire

Fantastic place. Plenty parking, great choice of yummy ice cream. The pizzas looked amazing, will definitely go back to try one. Outside pods really handy if weather is bad and beautiful flowers everywhere

Visited today, lovely place - pods outside to sit in (handy today with the rain). Lots of choices in ice cream flavour and it’s very tasty. The lady who served us was a little rude - as it was our first time, I asked how many flavours you got in a large/medium/small etc she wasn’t very helpful, just said ‘pick 3’. She then walked away, opened a door through the back, then returned with no explanation and scooped the ice cream. I asked what the situation with the pods are - she said ‘just see if there’s one free’. Quite abrupt. The pods are a great idea, but the seats in there are a little flimsy - not ideal for the larger customer. Maybe an idea to cater for all customers. My friend used the toilet around 10.20am (not long after opening) and it was dirty - suggests it wasn’t cleaned from the previous day.

Absolutely fantastic spot just outside Aberdeen. Pods and benches to sit in. Delicious pizza from a small unit. Also sandwiches. On advice I picked the diavola, my friends had mozzarella and carne. All were really delicious. We then joined the perpetual queue for ice cream. What a choice! High quality coffee and a great effort to be sustainable made for a very enjoyable visit.

Out for the day with a friend and we popped in here. Forest Farm never disappoints, excellent service and the very best ice cream around. Lovely location and excellent provision. Sometimes there is a bit of a queue but that’s to be expected for such a great product.

Can recommend the lovely organic ice cream. It’s made on the site and there’s lots of flavours to choose from. The honeycomb is exceptional!!!

Forest farm on a positive note has excellent ice cream great flavors great cheese ,milk but on a negative note what happened to the nice farm shop we used to have feel forest farm has went very commercialized with there coffe shop ,now pizzeria went to get couple of tubs of ice cream cheese milk to take home had to stand in queue where everyone else was for there hot drinks ,cakes , ice cream cones with about 20 other people in front why is the other shop not open for customers who just want to come buy there organic food items feel these customers have been forgotten about I used come every 2 weeks to get my milk ,cheese tub ice cream but because of the good old organic farm shop gone I’m lucky if I’m there once every 3 months now it’s quite sad that it has went down this route 😟

Advertised as a cafe…pods outside…no sit in tables Asked the server if they would take our order out to us….answer ..No…had to get it passed out through a window. Coffee was OK choice of cakes etc very poor. Will not be back that’s for sure !!!

Tried to bring my hungry 9 year old here for breakfast. 🙃 Was expecting there to be at least scones, pancakes or something less sweet on the menu but couldn't find anything suitable so he had ice cream. The server struggled to get the ice cream into the cone due to using a spatula/paddle instead of a scoop. 🤷 Nice place in warm weather, not so sure I'll come in winter. Like the reusable coffee cups and bowls🤩 and good recycling bins too 👍

Each time we visit, there is something new for customers to enjoy. We went in the morning and there was a great selection of home made cakes and pastries, fabulous unusual ice cream and gelato, thick milk shakes, tea and coffee. All of the milk and cream based products comes from their own organic herd in their own dairy. We had a carrot cake each and we all had coffee. Everything is served in reusable cups, plates and cutlery clearly showing that they have thought about their environmental foot print and responsibility - which I really liked. We sat in one of the pods which was very comfortable. The carrot cakes were lovely and the coffee was smooth and silky and unlike many establishments , the coffee did not taste burnt. Also at the location is a pop-up shop and soon to be hot, freshly made pizzas. It is a great place to visit and to enjoy great tasting fresh produce.

The ice cream is fantastic, the domes to sit in are also great feature. I loved it because my girlfriend has dairy allergies so they were able to give her a lovely sorbet and the fact you can buy your own milk fresh is a great touch. Will definitely be back again

While we rate this shop as the best Ice Cream Shop in the North East it is beginning to ruin itself. We travel from Aberdeen city for regular treats but every time now recently we have come away empty handed due to the long queues of 20-30 people. I know the staff do their best to cope but they really need another counter or mobile to help during rush hours etc. Their ice cream is very tasty and lots of choices.

The sorbet I had was really nice. They have a variety of ice cream flavours as well as different cones and toppings to choose from. There are ‘domes’ outside with tables and chairs in them. These are nice to sit in. It is in a lovely setting with lots of wild flowers. Various recycling bins for you to properly dispose of everything - great to see. There is a milk ‘vending machine’ as well, where you can fill up a bottle of fresh milk. Would recommend!

Beautiful choice of ice cream with coffee, cakes & milkshakes. You can take milk home & refill your own bottles too. The opening hours are great & the kids can watch milking time.

Beautiful fresh milk in reusable bottles. Ice cream was delicious and nice to sit in the sheltered pods eating ice cream as the rain lashed down outside. Didn't find the yogurt that was advertised on a sign but maybe just missed it.

Who says gelateria just for summer ! great coffee, regular stop on bike for me. Usually good low gluten sweet treat too.

I visited Forest Farm today for a coffee with my friend and my dog. The one good thing was we could take my pet into the pod (outside with a table and chairs). I bought: 1 latte, 1 black coffee with milk. 2 (small) chocolate brownies and 2 50% off sourdough loaves. I was charged over £20 . How much over I can't remember but it was pounds rather than pence. Stupidly I did not take the receipt. I feel like I have been robbed. What an absolute rip off. It's a disgrace, Needless to say I will not go back. I would be very interested to know how these extortionate prices can be justified. Disgusting!

Really very good ice cream, would recommend to anyone in the area. The farm venue has nice outside seating and great parking.

I come here regularly as it’s always top quality. The organic milk is delicious. The ice cream is heavenly. The service is always first class. There are wee domes in which you can enjoy your ice cream if it’s cold and/or raining, and on a fine summer’s day this place is a delight. I hope they don’t change their products or prices as this place is perfect just the way it is… long may that continue!
