Scratch-made ice cream with unique flavors & locally sourced coffee
"New City gets super nerdy about its ice cream — liquid nitrogen is involved in the dessert-making process — at great benefit to ice cream enthusiasts. Come here for dollops of pillowy, airy creams in classic shades like mint chip, coffee, vanilla, and chocolate. Aside from the Central Square, Hudson, and Sudbury locations, New City’s pints are also stocked in Whole Foods and other local grocers around the area." - Tanya Edwards
"New City’s ice cream pies (peppermint stick, apple, and pecan) are $35 each and can be ordered online by December 20 for pickup December 22 to 24 at either the Cambridge or Hudson location." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"New City Microcreamery steeps their ice creams for 24 hours, then freezes them with liquid nitrogen - supposedly that’s why their scoops are so rich and creamy. Look, we’ll believe anything a marketing firm tells us as long as there’s great ice cream involved. And from our experiences with the salted Oreo, ginger lemongrass, and peanut butter brownie flavors, that involvement is certainly not in question." - Joel Ang
"An ice cream shop in Cambridge's Central Square is partnering with the cupcake business to handle customer pickups for online and phone orders, serving as the designated local pickup point." - Dana Hatic
"I learned that New City Microcreamery, which began in Hudson in 2015, has expanded into Cambridge’s Central Square at 403 Massachusetts Ave., opening under limited hours to start in the former Cafe Luna space and sitting steps from the original Toscanini’s location. The shop specializes in liquid-nitrogen ice cream made with dairy from Mapleline Farms and routinely pushes boundaries with flavors like tarragon, matcha, cantaloupe, and fennel. It also serves coffee, bagels, and pastries from executive pastry chef Alyssa Lieberman (formerly of L’Espalier and Craigie on Main), and the team behind it runs a speakeasy-style bar called Less Than Greater Than and Rail Trail Flatbread Co. across the street." - Dana Hatic
