My partner and I walked 20 minutes to get here to satisfy an ice cream craving. It was already a beautiful day as this was the day (11/14) that we got engaged in and Nikki was the cherry on top, an amazing visit to end the day. She was so kind to us and reassured us when we felt we were getting too many samples. The world needs more Nikkis!! This woman deserves a raise! Oh and the ice cream was amazing as well!!

Getting the gelato shaped like a flower is a really nice touch and makes for a super cute dessert. Honestly though, the gelato itself was just way too sweet for my taste. It isn't bad by any means, but I definitely prefer Venchi over this place when I want really good gelato. Amorino is fun to try once for the aesthetic, but Venchi just tastes better overall.

We had a wonderful time at Van Leeuwen! My daughter got the 'Vegan Planet Earth' from their Spring Specials on a waffle cone, and she absolutely loved it. The blue and green colors are so fun and vibrant, looking exactly like a little globe. The shop was clean and the staff was very welcoming. A perfect spot for a sweet family treat!

Very disappointed with my recent visit. I brought my family for Carvel’s Wednesday BOGO sundae deal, but was charged full price for a third sundae and one served in a cone. The staff member, James, claimed the cone wasn’t included—though this was not mentioned anywhere in-store or online. When I offered to pay for the cone separately and have the ice cream moved to a cup, he refused, citing a “policy” that wasn’t posted or explained. What made the experience worse was how unhelpful and dismissi

I love the yogurt flavors and toppings here! But it can get pricey very quickly. I suggest trying 2 or 3 small swirls and 2-3 half-scoops of toppings. Thats it--otherwise it all melts together by the time you eat half way thru AND its over $15 in a cup! My son over did his, with candy 🍬 🤣 and our two yogurts in "small cups" were $26! Note: I think there is a $12 min. On credit cards.

100/100 for the kindest staff and cool flavors, really like the coffee Oreo. Black sesame. I wouldn't try again. Next time I'd like to go for more tea flavors.

Found this little dessert shop whilst walking post-dinner at a nearby restaurant. They had pretty decent number of flavors on the menu. I tried the Pistachio in a waffle cone which was creamy & delicious. My cuz tried the Chocolate sundae which was pretty good too. They are located in the midst of many restaurants so can definitely be a prime spot to grab ice-cream after dinner. Must visit. Vegan options available! Service is quick athough no area to sit down.

I recently visited Häagen-Dazs, and it was absolutely the spot for a sweet treat. The atmosphere was inviting, and the quality of the ice cream was top-notch. Even though I didn’t note a specific favorite flavor this time, every scoop tasted rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. The staff was friendly and the service was fast, making the experience all the more enjoyable. Overall, I would give Häagen-Dazs a solid 5 stars for delivering a consistently delicious and satisfying experience.

Totally worth waiting in line for! They have a solid selection of delicious, high-quality froyo flavors, and being able to swirl and mix different ones in a cup is the best part. I got chocolate, raspberry and vanilla. Their signature tart is nice tho! The topping options are incredibly variable and fun. It's a bit of a wait during peak hours, but it completely hits the spot. Mine was 8.8 oz in total!

We stopped in to this Pinkberry location recently to get a sweet on a nice afternoon. Long entrance back to the ordering area. Seating up front in the window and the middle area. Nice selection of frozen yogurts to choose from and we selected pomegranate. We just got a small cup as we were not sure what it would taste like. Now we know- it was delicious. We could have added toppings but we did not this time. Highly recommend this place . Nice clean storefront on 2nd Ave between 55/54. One staff

This parkslope location is spacious, clean, and bright with friendly staff. Came here late at night. They are open until 1am. There is a variety of ice-cream flavors to choose from. There's a variety of vegan ice cream to choose from as well. Little pricey, but the ice cream tastes good and is rich in flavor.

We love this place! I enjoy the various flavors available that continuously change. The permanent flavors are great too! Never too much of a wait, and be sure to try flavors that seem interesting. My wife is vegan/gluten free mostly, and had plenty of options so I’d say vegan friendly for sure. We usually bring a cooler bag and ice packs and walk down to a park or to our apt to eat. Ice cream is top notch, definitely worth a visit!

Laid-back ice-cream shop with outdoor seating serving coffee, granita & Italian-style gelato.
We walked in on a blustery afternoon pre-theatre just by chance. This tiny village café has the most flavorful gelato we've ever had, and delicious coffee too! 36 flavors, about half of them vegan, and the owners encourage you to mix and match! We had the Banana Bread combined with the Dark Night, a vegan dark chocolate that was sumptuously thick and rich. If you find yourself in the area of Beeckman and Christopher in the Village, we highly recommend stopping in here!

When our neighborhood Pinkberry closed its doors, we were heartbrokenuntil we found out the incredible staff had relocated to this branch. Now, we happily go out of our way just to visit them here, and our family tradition continues. (My older daughter has been coming since she was 6 months old.) From the moment we walk in, we are always greeted like old friends. The staff goes above and beyond to make us feel incredibly welcomed, bringing that same neighborhood warmth to their new location.

Honestly disappointed. I ordered two Nutella soft serves for the Wednesday BOGO promotion 02/25/2026. The cashier wouldn’t offer the deal, stating “it’s not a sundae”. But the door sticker literally says in small letters ‘soft serve only’. Please educate your staff on what the Carvel promotions are. You don’t have to get the whip cream, extra topping, and cherry on top for it to qualify. I’ve been to other Carvel locations and never had this issue before.

Stopped her for a quick ice cream on our walk back from the park. It’s a great shop with both hand dipped and soft serve and all the classic toppings. I got a vanilla cone with sprinkles and I love how they fully dip the cone in them. I am giving this place a four simply because it’s nothing special. It’s great though - try it out

Will never buy coldstone again. Went in for the Lucky Charms ice cream but first wanted to try a sample. One of the team members, I didnt catch her name but she was a young Asian/Pacific Islander girl gave me the smallest sample possible and had an off-putting attitude throughout the entire transaction. Cold demeanor, no smile and bad customer service. The Lucky Charms flavor didn't taste as good as it was in the past, just glorified vanilla ice cream. I'll never patronize this location again as

I went for the first time. The employee Santos & Daniel. We’re so kind and patient! The ice cream flavors are great. A bit overpriced, but u would be back just for the great customer service. It was filled with kids afterwards. The customer service was exceptional. I even heard the kids tell the employees,”you’re the best employees”. Will be back!

What a great experience! I've had salt & straw back in the bay area, and was just as impressed to find that the quality and consistency is just as amazing at this location in ny! I sampled a couple flavors and ended up getting the chocolate gooey brownie. The chocolate was so rich and the brownie bits add extra texture to each bite. I brought my mom and she ended up choosing the pistachio & ricotta cannoli. Such a unique flavor! The pistachio isnt super overpowering but strong enough to taste a

The cone with the fruity pebbles on it it's sick son! Definitely recommend this place and they let you try the flavor before buying

First time trying gelato from this place after seeing the reviews and the pic of how legit their gelatos inside the covered containers. I tried the stracciatella. First time I tried this flavor abroad and the taste similar to the first time I tried. Service was good. The place was pretty clean. Seatings limited inside but there were some seatings outside. This place was more like a buy it and go.

Delicious place - I love places where the only bad review is a gripe on the price or amount. Price was fine, we got more scoops it was more than enough and definitely took 30+ bites to eat. Not sure how the hoarse from another review finished in 9 bites but human bites definitely take way more than that. lol . Friendly people, more than happy to let four of us try flavors and decide on our picks. Espresso pretty good to for helping wash everything down :-)

A cute & quaint spot for gelato in the West Village. All of the flavors are fresh and made in small batches. Unfortunately, however, I don’t think the quality of the gelato itself is up to that of other places in the city. Still an enjoyable spot to check out though.

My wife always insists on coming here every Spring and Summer. They have new flavors!!! And for a guy, who is trying to lose a few, the small size (under 250 cal., for the most part) is perfect. Be careful though if you are driving here. Definitely meter your car. The Meter Maids are like Ninjas around 110th street. Pay the 70 cents on your parking app, it's cheaper than $55.

The world’s ugliest ice cream cone These were not my words.

A couple of years ago, we visited Salt & Straw in Los Angeles and were amazed by their unique ice cream flavors, such as olive oil and blue cheese, which tasted incredible. Recently, while walking through the West Village, we spotted the ice cream shop and decided to try it again. Although the seasonal flavors were different from our last visit, they were just as delicious. We sampled the coffee chamomile sherbet, which was subtle and delightful, as well as the strawberry tres leches, which was

Absolutely amazing! Their homemade flavors are incredible and you can really taste the quality in every bite. The creativity and authenticity in their flavor combinations is outstanding. From classic vanilla to unique seasonal varieties, everything is made fresh in-house. The texture is perfectly creamy and the portions are generous. Highly recommend trying their signature homemade flavors - you won't be disappointed!

I bought an ice cream cake for a birthday party and am very disappointed with the result. The cake seemed very small for the box it came in and it looked flat compared to Carvel cakes available in the local grocery store. When we cut into the cake inside was a thin layer of vanilla ice cream, a thick layer of crunchies, and a very thin layer of chocolate ice cream as a base layer. All told the cake was about 2 1/2" thick. Not a good value for the money. We called the store and expressed disappo
