Tried this ice cream spot for the first time—there was quite a lineup when I went, which shows how popular it is in town. As someone who’s tried ice cream from different cities, I’d say it’s good, though the flavors are somewhat similar to other places. That said, it’s definitely worth checking out, especially since it’s a local favorite. Prices are reasonable too. A must-try if you’re visiting!
I remember coming here years ago when I was much much younger. It still has an amazing atmosphere, amazing ice cream and the place has been well-maintained which I’m really impressed with considering how long it’s been there. I enjoyed two flavours of ice cream and they were really carefulto grab a scoop that had been sanitized as I have a gluten intolerance.
We drive in from Calgary just to come to MacKay’s because the ice cream is that good. So many great flavours and always super creamy and delicious. The staff are amazing, friendly, patient, and they handle the busy crowds so well. Cochrane is such a cute little town too, so it makes for the perfect day trip. Definitely worth the visit every time.
Every time I find myself in Cochrane, I have to stop by MacKay’s Ice Cream. It’s basically a ritual at this point. You really can’t go wrong with classics like Cookies & Cream or Cookie Dough. I’ve tried a bunch of their other flavors, but those two always hit the spot. Not too sweet, not overly creamy. Just a really nice, balanced scoop every time.nnThe staff are consistently kind and welcoming. The shop always has that cozy, nostalgic ice cream parlor feel. It’s clean, inviting, and has a great energy no matter the season. Whether you’re a regular or a first-timer, this place is worth the stop.
Worth every minute of the drive from Calgary! The historic downtown backdrop and quaint outdoor benches make it a charming spot to enjoy your cone. It’s legendary among locals—once you taste it, you’ll understand why it’s “ruined all other ice cream” for many. A must‑visit on any Calgary road trip!
