Superior Dairy

Superior Dairy


Superior Dairy is a Valley institution: it is the 'go to' place for gargantuan ice cream concoctions. For 90 years, Superior Dairy has been operating in Hanford, California. Superior Dairy makes its own creations--such as the S.O.S (Super Oversized Sundae) served in a 3.5 pound goblet-- as well as enlarged versions of traditional ice cream dishes such as the Banana Split. Superior Dairy is both an ice cream parlor and a diner, serving a limited menu of sandwiches and salads.

Superior Dairy is located at 325 N Douty Street in Hanford (about 35 miles from Fresno). It is open 7 days a week, 11:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. If you come at lunch time in the summer, expected a wait. The place is packed.

S.O.S.: Unforgettable Experience

Vanilla Ice Cream is popular at Superior Dairy: Customers order vanilla ice cream-only dishes, including this 'basic' dish (four scoops)

The ice cream comes in all colors (and some have smaller caps on top - not sure why)


Sundae with multiple chocolate flavors

Salads Available


One of many colorful ice cream dishes we saw that day.

More colorful creations....

Four dishes (perhaps ordered by customers who were 'purists' - each to his or her own favorite flavor)
Ham and Cheese Sandwich (comes with pickles and a bag of chips)

Our vanilla ice cream sundae, with four scoops, hot fudge sauce, walnuts, bananas, whipped cream, and a cherry on top
