Cow Cafe

Cow Cafe, a whimsical gem in downtown New Bern, North Carolina, delights visitors with its cow-themed charm and family-friendly vibe. Since opening in 1994, this quirky eatery has been serving house-made super-premium ice cream in playful flavors like “Mooford’s Chocolate Mountain” and “Mooey Cowphooey,” crafted on-site for a creamy, nostalgic treat. Beyond dessert, the menu features hearty sandwiches, wraps, soups, and salads, with standouts like the Greek Cow and Cuban Cow, complemented by gourmet popcorn in unique flavors.

The cow-spotted decor, complete with a toy train circling overhead and a barnyard play area for kids, creates a fun, welcoming atmosphere. With outdoor seating, catering services, and a “Bovine Boutique” offering nearly 500 cow-themed gifts, Cow Cafe is a must-visit for a delightful dining experience that’s as memorable as it is delicious.
