    Finally - a ice cream spot with more than one or two non-dairy options! And with real…read morecoconut/cashew ice cream bases, all those with lactose-sensitivities finally have more than sorbets to choose from. I really enjoyed the vegan banana pudding and seasonal planet earth flavors, and look forward to coming back and trying more options soon. Added bonus that Van Leeuwen has a variety of topping/sauce options to choose from.

    Van Leeuwen has really taken over the DMV area, with this location replacing Nicecream. It started…read morewith two locations in DC a couple years ago, and now there are at least 10. While the ice cream is much pricier than other local chains in the area, I do appreciate their seasonal flavors along with their classic Earl Grey Tea. Also, they're on inKind, which helps! We stopped by after lunch this past Sunday, and there was a long line. Unfortunately, there was only one employee, who did her best to give samples, scoop out ice cream, and manage the cash register all at once. I definitely think Van Leeuwen could use a couple more employees, especially on a hot summer Sunday afternoon. I got a single scoop (7.95) of banana pudding, a seasonal flavor, which was actually served as two mini scoops. I did enjoy how banana-y it was and the chunks of vanilla wafers throughout, but it was incredibly sweet. Unfortunately, I couldn't even finish my ice cream. A couple of others in our group tried the other seasonal flavor, strawberry rhubarb cheesecake. However, it mostly tasted like cheesecake with bits of crust, with no noticeable strawberry or rhubarb flavor. Overall, I still like that Van Leeuwen offers unique flavors, and their ice cream is rich and creamy, but this visit was pretty underwhelming. The ice cream is already expensive, and the excessive sweetness made it difficult to finish even a single scoop.

    Tried the Vienna location first from a Yelp Elite event. Really enjoyed my time and decided to stop…read moreby for breakfast! I got a McLovin (Sasuage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit), a New Orleans style coffee, a slice of PB Nutella Pie, and two cookies: one Oreo in a blanket and the other a PB Cup in a Blanket (which are basically chocolate chip cookies with an Oreo and PB Cup inside of them). I've had the pie and coffee before and loved. But the other items are new. I'll start with the McLovin: it's incredible! All the flavors work together nicely. The buttermilk biscuit is nice and fluffy and the sausage is well seasoned and egg was cooked to perfection with some melty cheese! The PB Cup in and blanket was yummy too! A stagger advised I heat it ijnthe microwave for 10 seconds and it was so gooey! The Oreo in a Blanket was also great! I really enjoy Bakeshop and I'm so glad I live really close to one! I've been to the Vienna and Arlington locations and the staff for both are really nice! Quick service too!

I like that they allow you to customize the flavors. I had a red velvet with cream cheese icing and it was so soft and melted in your mouth. They are beautifully decorated, highly recommend! The place is super cute inside. Looking forward to trying their breakfast!

On this visit I stuck with an old favorite of strawberry buttermilk which I love every time they bring it back. Decided to pair it with the Biscuits with the Boss which was new. I loved the shortbread pieces mixed in. I always make sure to ask for extra waffle pieces too. SO GOOD!

She was friendly,…read moreattentive, and ready to assist, offering different options and taking the time to ask what I was looking for. This was my first time. Unfortunately, the ice cream itself did not meet my expectations. I tried one scoop of the Butter Pecan-style flavor and one scoop of the Green Mint Chip. The consistency seemed somewhat watered down, and the ice cream melted very quickly, as I was standing in line waiting to pay which affected the overall experience. While the customer service was excellent, I wasn't particularly impressed with the ice cream and don't feel compelled to return to try additional flavors. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this establishment. Also, one more thing I don't recall her name because I didn't care too much for her bad attitude and the way she was trying to rush me through the process, but somebody else gave me bad service before Tiffany stepped in to regain a customer.
