AMAZING vegan ice cream!

They have a decently long list of vegan options which are on a separate section of the menu board, making it super easy to find what you're looking for. I got the "Planet Earth" special limited edition flavor for spring and OMG. Amaretto, matcha, and blue spirulina... "These are a few of my favoirite things"... pretty much. They told me the sugar cone is vegan but the waffle cones/bowls aren't, oh well. Thankfully this place is super close to my hotel because I will definitely be going back!!!

Pros: Great selection, Delicious, Unique flavors

Cons: A little expensive, Waffle cone isn't vegan, No seating

Many vegan options!

Cute ice cream place in Little Italy. The ice cream was really good, the only reason why I didn't give 5 ⭐️s is because it was expensive.

Van Leeuwen Ice Cream

Try the vegan chocolate chip cookie dough (which was delicious) or an ice cream sunday topped with vegan chocolate and whipped cream! Excellent vegan ice cream options overall, not much more can I say... Super convenient location.

High Quality Ice Cream. Great Flavor Variety.

During my last visit to New York last month, I stopped by this location of Van Leeuwen Ice Cream. I tried one of the shop's summer specials: a vegan version of the otherwise milk-based Earl Grey ice cream that they usually have on offer.

The depth of the flavor was striking, and you know the ice cream is delicious when it's named after tea and reminds you of it, too!

There is no seating here: this shop is for getting your ice cream and enjoying it at a nearby park or public space.

One scoop of ice cream is in the 4-7 USD range: it is on the higher side, but so worth it for the quality and flavor.

Great choice of flavours

Had the pistachio and chocolate chip, seemed there were always a bunch of vegan options. Came across it by accident, glad we did. Not cheap but really good, a very creamy vegan ice cream, not sure what the base was, but wasn't over coconutty, instead the flavours came through.
Friendly staff, offered us a spare cup along with our heavily laden cone, good option, he knew that ice cream wasn't staying on top of that cone.

Amazing vegan ice creams

I tried both the mint chip and PB choc chip vegan ice creams, both delicious. They had a few other vegan flavors, all were (vegan) cream-based (not water-based like sorbet). One scoop set me back about $6 so not cheap but very good. The regular cones are also vegan, but not the waffle cones.

Really Great!

I've been staying in NYC for the past three weeks, and I've returned to this ice cream shop at least five times. It's a regular ice cream shop, with vegan ice cream flavors and non vegan flavors. There are about 8 vegan flavors I think, and they range from classics, like chocolate and vanilla, to my personal favorite, cookie crumble strawberry jam. Very friendly staff and amazing ice cream!

Pros: Lots of options, Friendly staff, Yummy

Cons: Small shop , A bit pricey
