Come in —
we're making
something
delicious

Small-batch ice cream, churned fresh every morning at our Fairfield Avenue shop. No shortcuts, no rush — just real ingredients and a whole lot of patience.

Our Story

Made slowly,
served proudly

Longfords started with a simple belief: the best ice cream shouldn't be rushed. Every batch is churned by hand in small quantities at our Fairfield Avenue kitchen, so you always get something that tastes like it was made for you.

We source real cream, fresh eggs, and seasonal fruit from local farms whenever we can. Our vanilla comes from Madagascar beans. Our chocolate is melted from couverture. Our strawberries arrive in June and last exactly as long as they should.

That's what small batch means — we don't make enough to fill a warehouse. We make enough to get it right.

Running this shop is personal. Every scoop carries that.
