Letter from The President
Why is Reid’s milk better tasting, and better for you? The answer is simple. We minimize the processing beyond basic pasteurizing to preserve the rich nutrient value of milk.
Our experienced and highly trained staff adhere to the highest quality standards of cleanliness to keep your milk the way it should be: natural and wholesome. Observe for yourself on our video monitors in the retail store showcasing how our products are made with pride.
Since the days of the horse and wagon, Reid’s continues to be the dairy of choice. Owned and operated by our family, serving your family and our community since 1910.
Thank you for choosing Reid’s Dairy.

Good service and the two scoop ice cream portion was huge. More importantly it tasted delicious. You never forgot your first time. Tim KTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We stopped into Reid’s Dairy Cheese Shop in Belleville and only had the ice cream this time, but it was absolutely worth the visit. The ice cream was rich, creamy, fresh-tasting, and exactly the kind of classic dairy-bar treat that makes you want to come back. It reminded us of the kind of quality we enjoy back home at Avondale Dairy Bar in Niagara-on-the-Lake — simple, delicious, and done right. The portions were generous, the flavours were excellent, and it had that old-school dairy shop charm that makes the experience even better. We will definitely stop in again the next time we are in Belleville. Great ice cream, great local feel, and highly recommended.

Coming here is always a delight. The ice cream flavours are some of the best in the country. Jeff In LimehouseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Update May 2026. Still amazing. Shakes and ice cream cannot be beat. $3.49 for large shakes and $5.49 for 4 hard scoops of delicious ice cream. Update. Aug 22 2025. Still a great visit. Many changes since last visit with a more retail vibe and new adjacent stores. Great ice cream. This has been a regular destination of ours since I was a kid. It's about half-way between Toronto and Montreal or Ottawa so it's our perfect rest-stop to get amazing shakes, ice cream, cheese, etc. from a Canadian company directly at outstanding prices. Can't beat $1.50 for 3 scoops! Prices have tripled ;) If you have young kids, make sure to press the button under the cow to start the train.Google rating score: 4.4 of 5, based on 908 reviews
