Van Leeuwen ice cream is so delicious! I’m a sucker for sweet and their Blue Jasmine flavor is by far, my favorite. To kick it up a notch, I add dark chocolate shavings and it never gets old!! If your craving some delicious ice cream, give them a try

It was my first time here and won’t be my last. This ice cream was so rich in flavor and just delicious. The customer service was amazing, we were offered samples and helps through the menu. Definitely recommend stopping by!

I am completely in love with their ice creams. They have a rich and creamy taste. We tried: 1. Blueberry jelly donut - it's mix of berries and cookie dough (for donut). It has a sweet and tangy taste. 4.5/5 2. Caramel Dulce - I love caramel and this was by far the best caramel icecream with chocolate chunks. Base flavour is Dulce with caramel filled chocolate chunks in it. However, it was very sweet. I had a single scoop and it was more than enough for me ( for a person who has a sweet tooth). Overall, I love their ambience too.

This was my first time visiting a Van Leeuwen shop, and I absolutely loved it! The service was outstanding, and the shop itself was clean. The staff was incredibly patient and eager to help, letting me sample several flavors and offering their personal favorites as well as popular options. I ended up choosing the Brown Sugar Cookie Dough Brownie, and it was delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I love the ice cream I pick out, and the decoration the store had, but the customer service was wasn’t great. I went with my husband for something quick. It was my husband and I first time in this store. We only lasted about 8 min. Mostly it was due to an employee wasn’t the best sport. The employee didn’t smile, always keep asking “ what was that or can you say that again” but to think of it was just the three of us in the store with no music. Once my husband and and I got our ice cream she quickly move it cash register didn’t mention “ any toppings or anything else” so my husband and I looked at each other and decided to pay and walk away. My husband and I notice when walking out it wasn’t a good customer service.

Such a great ice cream shop! The staff was truly patient when 3 kids wanted a bunch of samples and was friendly the entire time. The flavor options are fabulous and there's a ton of vegan flavors. Everything is labeled well and there's a few spots to sit inside. A bit pricey but the flavors and vegan options are definitely worth it.

The employee was fantastic, even though it was late at night. Our visit was a few months ago. I walked out with the dark chocolate and cherry per his recommendation, but I also really liked their coffee flavored ice cream. I did buy my husband a tub of the cookies and cream, and there was nothing special to it, but also no complaints. I definitely would stick to the more unique flavors.

Absolutely delicious. Service is 1000/10. We felt welcomed and appreciated. I 100% recommend. If I remember correctly, the persons name who served us was Ethan. He was very personable and made sure that we had an amazing experience.
