Worth standing in line! Super creamy and portions are plentiful. A small cone is equal to a medium/ large at other places- in size and rich content.They do have a Junior cone available.

Best soft serve ever! Friendly servers, clean area and large servings! Great experience!

Best local ice cream shop... Make their own ice cream.. Cow and farm on premise!

Ah! Their ice cream was heavenly! Creamy and not too sweet. We came as a group and every one of us were very satisfied. They only accept cash so be ready. Parking was not a problem.

Yummy and dog friendly! The pup cup sundae was so cute!

Okay.... To be fair, I have only been here once. I went last week. I wanted to try a place that makes homemade ice cream. Their sign says "homemade ice cream". They have nice outside tables where you can sit to enjoy the ice cream. It would be better if they had some umbrellas for shade. The farm view with the cow(s) is nice too. I walked up to the back of the line and waited about 5 minutes for my turn to order . Must people ordered soft serve vanilla. Even the junior(kid size) cones are big. Tip, order the junior cone, about $3.50? Prices seem fair. When I got to the front of the line to order, the hill told me I had to go to the other window to order. There were no other customers at either window at the time. I went to the other window. Then I did notice a tiny sign that said "order window". I asked if the soft serve was home made. The girl at the window said" no, it's from a machine", lol. I then asked " Okay, is the hard scooped ice cream home made?". She said yes. I ordered a small Sundae with nuts and paid. Note, they only accept cash. I went to the other window and picked up my sundae. They have it to me, no nuts. I said I ordered them, then they told me they don't have nuts ( which are on the menu on the wall). I said I paid the 50 cents for the nuts and the girl who took the order didn't say anything about not having them. The girl seemed bothered, and didn't really care. The hard ice cream had ice crystals in it as if it was freezer burned. Flavors vanilla and coconut. It was just ok. I'm in no hurry to try this place again.

Why is the cow so malnourished? Such a sweet cow, please take care of them

Cash only, and come prepared to wait at popular times! The parking lot needed overflow, and the line frequently goes out into the parking lot where they don't pay attention to the cars. I also liked seeing the cow, but smelling manure while eating was a little weird. Otherwise, the ice cream was delicious and the portions are HUGE! I would definitely go back to try more flavors!

Best ice cream in the capital region.

Loved the vanilla ice cream. I felt bad the lady that did my pb dip lost it 3 times 😬 probably should of done cherry next time 😅

100% fresh Always enjoy coming to Scoups. Their ice cream servings are legendary!

Great ice cream place.visiting family in the area.close to there home. I small got watermelon dole whip vanilla twist.it was a large portion.

Best ice cream location in the capital region.

Very good ice cream .. their junior scoop itself is pretty huge!

It was fine, but given the many other great ice cream places in the area I probably won't be rushing back anytime soon. Very limited menu and next to no shade for outdoor seating.

most delicious 🍦 we come from downstate and try to make our way here especially during summer time. great hang out spot. friendly staff. Stop by and see the 🐄 that resides here. No pics of “Betsy” 🐮, she was 😴 ps: SIZE Does Matter here. small is huge and large is SUPER DUPER BIG , if you want a normal size of 🍨 , then order “junior size” TRUST me in this.

Delicious and creamy soft serve with rotating special flavor

Loved the selection and the pricing was fair for the amount of ice cream I received. I liked the hard ice cream especially the cherry vanilla.

This was my first time here and my stomach is sensitive to dairy but I had no issues eating this soft ice cream. It was delicious. I can't wait to go again. My only suggestion would be to put some umbrellas on the tables. We had 5 women 50-80's and we had to eat in the car. The sun 🌞 was blaring.

The soft serve was delicious! Generous is an understatement for their serving sizes haha. Bonus - you get to pet the cow!!

Always enjoy coming to Scoups. Their ice cream servings are legendary! Their flavors and toppings are extraordinary. We ordered JUNIOR sizes, which are huge! The cow is pretty cool too.

Listed as open till 9pm. Drove 20 min to try. Closed at 6:30 pm. Business did not update business hours on Google Maps.

The ice cream is delicious. The staff are friendly. The prices are reasonable. I live close to a very popular ice cream shop, but I drive out of my way to get ice cream from Scoups.

The best soft ice cream in the Capitol region!

Holy Cow! The servings were huge!! This is a great place to cool off on warm days. The cows are on-site too!

The ice cream is great, the staff are nice, and they have cows that the kids can say hi to. The only thing you need to do is abandon expectations on what order size means. A small cone is equivalent to a large cone at some lesser establishments. A large cone may induce a sugar coma if eaten by any but the most experienced ice cream connoisseur. It's worth it, the ice cream is delicious, but plan your nap accordingly afterwards.

Absolutely love this place. The best milkshakes around I recommend this place to everyone !!!

Beautiful place, large sitting area, good tasting ice cream.

Love it, love the atmosphere, just waaay too much for a portion of icecream 🤧 dont get icecream here unless you plan to take the rest home!

Good ice cream. Should be called BEES because there are millions of them there

Worst experience to date!! We got the scoops (pretty amazing size), but didn’t get to enjoy it. My kids got attacked by wasps!! They were everywhere! My 4 year old dumped his ice cream on the ground without having a bite; my daughter had a complete panic attack.. tears and the works… plea to the owners: track down the wasp nest and get rid of them!

Portions are HUGE for the money. I ordered the junior size and way too much. Found out later that they have a coco size, that would be more like a kiddie cone. Medium soft serve more like a large + at other stands. Ice cream is delicious. Watch out for the bees!!!

Value: 10/10- great pricing and big portions! Note, is cash only! Service: 10/10 Vibe: 9/10 - love being right at the farm Strawberry hard ice cream: 8/10 Chocolate hard ice cream: 8/10 Cookie dough hard ice cream: 8/10 Overall: 8.83/10 (4.41/5)

We love scoups and come all the time but the bees are crazy right now. We literally had to run for our lives and couldn't sit down for a minute. Also, a suggestion to the owner would be to add more umbrellas than just the one, we would definitely come more often if there was more shade.

One of our favorite ice cream parlors in Albany.

Ice cream was good except for the insects and flies. They have many tables but eating while you’re sitting is impossible! We couldn’t even enjoy our ice creams

Incredibly ice cream. We got the small cone, but it's huge. We came here back in May while visiting family. We had to come back again if was so good. Our son loved the cow.

Excellent ice cream. I had no sugar added coffee ice cream and it was great. Update ...went again with whole family, crowded but the line moved fast. Fantastic ice cream. Everyone enjoyed it

The icecream flavors are delicious and taste different than what you would get at other places. The fruit flavored icecream tastes very fresh. You get a great deal for the portion size especially with the soft serve. It's nice to checkout the farm animals as well

Went to buy corn. Have not had a bad one yet. Sooo sweet

The 2nd best butter pecan ice cream I've ever tasted (the best had candied pecans in it) and I love that they have waffle cones as an option for those of us who don't like the texture of sugar cones. The person I was with has eaten at world class restaurants and said it's better than some of the most expensive ice cream he's ever tasted. $9 for two ice cream cones we both couldn't stop talking about for an hour afterwards is a great price.

Good ice cream. Large portions. Cash only.

I'm mildly lactose intolerant but somehow I don't have any reaction to the ice cream here. It's tasty and the prices are super.

Love their homemade hard ice cream absolutely delicious 🤤🤤

Really awesome place and a lot of flavors made farm fresh.

Awesome service and ice cream!!!

The ice cream here is so good that my wife and I have been driving here from Queens for the last couple of years - highly recommend

Fair prices, quality ice cream with generous servings - what more can you ask for? They are a cash only establishment so keep that in mind. There’s plenty of parking and seating available.

Delicious ICECREAM!!!!! The owner was so nice and the customer service was top notch!!

Great homemade ice cream with a ton of picnic tables and a small pasture with a cow in it!

Many flavors to choose from and I like the variety of plants for the garden

Very large cones and good ice cream 😊
