Callicoon Creamery

Pricey for an ice cream stand. They wouldn’t spot me $.03.
$.50 for an ice water, on top of $ 8.00 for a brownie sundae.
Next time I’ll go to pecks, and get two quarts of ice cream for the same price.

Anyone who remembers how absolutely disgusting the old place was should be nothing but thankful that there’s something like this in Callicoon now. The old place was great if you’re a fan of diarrhea. This place is awesome if you like good food at a reasonable price.
The ice cream is pretty standard fare. I disagree that it’s the same stuff you’d get out of a tub in the freezer at Peck’s, but I could see how someone from the city, who is accustomed to cold stone things of the like, could get their panties in a twist.
The most interesting thing is their food menu, specifically the weekly (daily?) specials. Their pulled pork sandwich is solid. It isn’t the best I’ve ever had (this is Callicoon, NY, after all!), but as I said it’s solid. I’ve ordered it more than once if that says anything. The Cuban sandwich style panini was phenomenally good. It tastes nothing like a traditional Cuban sandwich but I don’t care. It was that good.
Prices are nothing worth writing about either way. Not cheap, not expensive. I haven’t been to their barbecues but I’ve heard good things.
The only caveat here is that service is slow. It’s not just slow in general, it’s even slow for this laid back area.

Lots of pluses to this place. The food in general is excellent. The down side is the high prices. I realize its seasonal but $ 8.10 for a small veggie panini? (albeit very tasty) The high prices take some of the fun out of it. and keep this ice cream lover from making it a regular stop. Also they could keep the property cleaner and pick up the trash that blows onto other surrounding property.
