They have unique flavor and really satisfy your sweet tooth. The banana pudding is good but honestly it's pretty basic. (Unless you scoop some and put it on a cookie) Lastly the workers were very monotone and seemed annoyed to be there. They dropped my cookie (it was already in the bag) and didn't even offer another one just said "oh it's fine" I wouldn't come here again in New York because they're are so many options but I wasn't upset with the selections.

Okay I was cracking up about my experience here because I literally asked the dumbest question to…read morethe guy working but he was so nice and explained the answer to me until I understood! So fun fact they are now advertising Banana Pudding Hot Chocolate and it is NOT actual hot chocolate but banana pudding made to taste like hot chocolate. Why I got so confused? I don't know! Maybe I have been watching too many videos about Tyra Banks Hot Ice Cream. Either way I appreciate the guys patience and kindness when explaining it to me twice especially because I did not end up ordering that at all (though it sounds interesting) but I did get the regular actual hot chocolate and it was amazing! It tasted like melted marshmallows were in it! Perfect for a cold winter day. In addition we got to the humming bird cake, a cupcake, and the regular banana pudding. My husband had never been here before so you know we had to get the banana pudding, it's their claim to fame. And it is decent. Growing up in North Carolina banana pudding is taken very seriously and is literally at every gathering. Would this be a contender for the cookout? Sure! I have no complaints about. The other baked items were delicious as well. The store is cute unfortunately this location has no indoor seating but plenty of outdoor. It was like negative degrees when we went so we definitely did not sit outside. All and all it's a cute bakery/ sweets shop. There are many locations through out the city. I've been to others and it is consistent. It's definitely not a bad dessert spot to try.

The wait time is about 15 minutes before you're at the front of the line. I ordered the single hot chocolate with a confetti marshmallow and Reeses Cup on top. The prices are reasonable overall and I definitely plan on getting the largest size that comes in a mason jar the next time around. It's well worth the wait and the price.

I have to firstly give it to the server here, because she was very attentive to us and was really…read morecool on letting us try some samples. I knew I wanted ice cream, but I didn't know what flavor yet and she described the flavor so well to us. I ended up getting a milkshake mixed with honeycomb and brown sugar chocolate brownie. It was freaking delightful, I was a little afraid. It was gonna be too sweet, but it was the perfect amount of sweet. We found out that honeycomb is the most popular flavor and that one of the owners is from Australia and that's why they had it on the menu. My boyfriend ended up mixing mango sticky rice and strawberry, which for the flavor profile was also perfect. Mango sticky rice was once a seasonal flavor, but it became so popular that it was just added to stay on permanently (that's what the server told us). 10/10. Van Leeuwen never really disappoints, but this place gets an extra special love from this girlie.

Same great tasting ice cream though while offering their usual variety of creative flavors. Nice staff working here today who let me try a few flavors.

Delicious as expected with Van Leeuwen.

The folks working here were cheerful and polite and also give recommendations on what to order if you get stuck. A nice environment!

I like to stop for FRIGGIN SOFT SERVE literally en route to get my teeth cleaned. Yeah. Besides the inherent failure that is my idea of preparing for a prophylaxis (dental jargon!) Miss Softee is serving up some dang good soft serve treats. She twitters her location every day and usually features special toppings - I had just missed out on soft serve sandwiches made with cookies from The Treats Truck! In lieu of that cookie goodness Miss Softee made me an oatmeal cookie cone - a vanilla soft serve cone dipped in rolled oats and sugar for a delicious crunchy oatmeal-cookie esque taste. And it was RULL RULL Good. Miss Softee is super sweet and adorable too. I think I have a penchant for people who procure the indulgence of my sweet tooth. And speaking of teeth...no cavities.

First of all, the soft serve has a texture, density, and sweetness that I have never tried on the west coast. The sprinkles were by far the best tasting and most flavor I've also ever had. Typically sprinkles back west are a joke and for decoration only and really have no taste or any redeemable quality, but damn these guys do them so right. After a long days walk I came across another one of their trucks and let me tell you I absolutely had to try another rainbow sprinkle cone! The absolute best!
