Van Leeuwen Ice Cream

Who doesn’t love a trip to the ice cream shop? I stumbled upon this place as it was in the area while on a Sunday shopping escapade, and so happy I did! The place is small, but immediately gives a feel of childlike happiness with its bright colors. It’s sure to bring a smile! 😃 What I like most about this ice cream parlor was its array of flavors that ventures off the beaten path.. it’s not your typical chocolate strawberry vanilla. (although they do offer those flavors) They offer brownies or cheesecakes that makes their ice cream unique. I ordered the pumpkin cheesecake and it was scrumptious! They also have many different kinds of cones to provide that help make your selection unique. I should also note that the gentleman behind the counter was extremely kind and courteous, as he was more than happy to allow me to taste test a few flavors before making my decision. I definitely suggest you stop by. I’m positive it’ll brighten your day! 🍨

The location is aesthetically pleasing, walkable and surrounded by shopping, other eateries and outdoor seating. I was impressed and pleasantly surprised by all the vegan options of ice cream and toppings. They even have a vegan cone. I tried several flavors: strawberry matcha, strawberry shortcake, chocolate brownie and cookies and cream. All were delish and the scoop sizes were plentiful! The young lady assisting me was both kind and helpful. Parking is scarce but they validate parking for the parking garage.

Came here around 9pm on a Saturday night after having dinner next door. The space itself is cheerful, bright and smells absolutely phenomenal. There was no one else there when we arrived and only one other group there when we left. Service was incredibly friendly and they happily let us try as many flavors as we wanted. Unfortunately this is where the positive things I have to say come to an end. We did not enjoy the ice cream. Everyone found it to be overly sweet. The hazelnut special had whole nuts inside which was unappetizing. Disappointing because it's in a great location but just wasn't a fan.

I had such a great visit w/my girlfriends after enjoying brunch nearby. Celeste was at the register assisting us, and we were able to taste new flavors and receive great recommendations. I had the earl grey, and not the flavor and texture were phenomenal! I was happy to discover this location. 5 stars!

Great tasting ice cream and cool looking place. Not much seating inside but there's a bit of seating outside the place. Flavors all seem delicious. I got brown sugar cookie dough and cookies and cream. Both were delicious. Can't wait to come back and try more.
