    Cookie dough
    Amanda D.

    Omg I haven't even eaten any of the quart yet but I've never seen this, they barely filled the container 3/4 of the way full! The cashier was too lazy to scoop it out! Terrible service! Bs.

    Small ice: rainbow cookie and cannoli

    No frills Italian ice stand. Each flavor packs an amazing flavor. Quality is top notch. The owner is super chill and gave great flavor recommendations. No, they don't offer samples or take card. But I wouldn't skip out on Dolly's if you're in the neighborhood. A true gem.

    Pistachio and Sky Blue ice's in pint form
    Jenelle K.

    My mother and I both hadn't been since the shop moved and we have been missing out. I used to go all the time with numerous family members and sky blue had always been the best one and it did not disappoint in all the years I've been away. We got the pint's because we wanted just a bit more than a large and while it was more than a bit it was still so yum and delicious. My mom loved the pistachio flavor and said we have to go back any time we pass by. Seems like we're gonna be having Dolly's Ices more from now on

    BOTTOM LINE: go...now...what are you waiting for? TIP/S: They serve icees, ice cream and milkshakes. There are to-go pint & Quart containers ...WHO: moi and my peeps WHY: because icees taste happy WHAT: (Deets) Malibu Bay Breeze (yep, like the drink) and Mint Chip are always winners and my go-to flavors. The fruit flavors have little bits of fruit inside, adding awesome texture and mouth feel. I do like the strawberry cheesecake and various Oreo flavors. My recommendation? Have one flavor you're familiar with, and experiment with the other...thank me later. WHEN: April though October WHERE: take away, there are typically two 2-seater benches in front of the store front. HOW: car/ bike/ public transportation, bus: B100 BATHROOM: none WIFI: I dunno DRESS CODE: as you like SERVICE: cordial, pretty prompt. Prepare for long lines, but resist being put off by it, it moves pretty quickly

    Graham crackers "pint"

    Great ices (the BEST graham cracker ices ever) but kind of upset that I paid for a pint and got less than that..

    Dolly's is definitely as good as it gets! The original flavor array will always keep you coming back and trying new things. My favorite ice cream changes every time I visit and try something new. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!! One disadvantage is, when you approach the window you cannot help but get his with a heavy tobacco stench from cigarette smoking. I am not sure whose smoking but they shouldn't be doing it in there.

    Black cherry cheesecake and pistachio ices - Look at those big bing cherries and there are pieces of cake mixed in!  Amazing!
    Sharon W.

    Update on 3/23/19 - I literally couldn't wait for Dolly's to re-open after their winter break. It was freezing last night, but I went anyway because I had to try the black cherry cheesecake ices, which a fellow yelper raved about. Holy deliciousness! This flavor is my new obsession. Perfectly mixed into their cheesecake flavored ices were large bing cherries and small pieces of cake! Outrageously delicious! I bought a quart and mixed in pistachio ices, which was insanely great on it's own. I threw some of it in my coffee this morning to make my own affogato! Dolly, her husband and whole family are super friendly! I love you Dolly's!

    Possibly the best Italian iced in NYC. The lemon ices had zest. Very refreshing. It's not the easiest place to find, but worth it.

You still get that luxuriously creamy and decadent ice cream minus the guilt. I always have a pint of ice cream at home in addition to my little fixes. The space is pretty small and can get packed during peak hours but there is seating outside and a ton to do in the surrounding area is you wanted to take your ice cream to go. Also, the staff is always welcoming, and special s/o to the owner Collin for being so nice and present. This place is a neighborhood staple for me, and I'll continue bringing family and friends to enjoy great ice cream.

They also have a really nice variety of flavors with some creative, unique mixes that stand out. I sampled three flavors: hazelnut coffee, grandma's apple pie, and the chai. I ultimately settled on the apple pie, which was delicious. It was creamy, well-balanced, and honestly you wouldn't even know it's vegan. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is due to a past visit where there were refrigeration issues and communication around timing could have been clearer. We were initially told to come back in about an hour, but it ended up taking significantly longer than expected. That said, I would still come back because the ice cream itself is really good and the flavors are worth it.

When I do this; I usually find " buried restaurant treasure". On a recent visit to Prospect Park, I decided to try a different place and got off the B16 at Caton and Coney Island Avenue. The place: Lark Cafe. I was in a mood to cheat and have a toasted wheat bagel with scallion cream cheese and a Chai. I got almost everything, except, wheat was sold out and chose sesame bagel. As I waited, I wanted to check out the adjoining ice cream shop that sells Jane's ice cream, made in the heart of the Hudson Valley. I will return for a future cheat. Jane's is known for popular flavors as Killer Chocolate, Blue Zoo, Unicorn Cake. My order was ready and one bite of the bagel: heaven! The bagel was toasted to perfection and the scallion cc was delicious. And what a generous schmear! The Chai was light and frothy. As I devoured, patrons around me were typing on their computers enjoying Stumptown coffee and iced tea. LC offers a variety of tasty options: whitefish on a bagel, smoked salmon, cheddar chive biscuits, tea bread, croissants, doughnuts.. The ambience is relaxed and there is a book nook if you need a good read. Lark also hosts private events and for families there are sing along and story times. The service is kind and my bagel was absolutely made with TLC. I left Lark happy and walked straight to Prospect Park. Off the beaten path is always full of nice surprises! "We believe in the power of kindness and of little deeds that make a person's day. We believe in community and creativity. We believe in indulgence and enjoyment. We believe in relaxing and reviving. We believe in good business and good people."- Lark Take B16 Lefferts Garden Bound and get off on Caton Avenue and Coney Island Avenue, @5 minute walk.

The dipping cabinet was full of great flavors this week, fruity, chocolatey, creamy, with sorbets and ice cream alike. I was eyeing the mango and coconut and pina colada, but needed a caffeine boost, so I settled on the very tasty espresso chip and chocolate. They had tons of cupcakes, from red velvet to birthday cake, lemon cheesecake and chocolate mousse cake slices. Macarons by the dozen were ready for snacking. Staff were friendly and wearing masks. They had a plexi divider between the front and back of house. Prices are fair.

They do have a nice selection of flavors though, like honey lavender, passion fruit, birthday cake, white chocolate, peppermint, and more. I think the bigger thing though was the staff member doing the mask under the nose thing. I know I could have said something, but I honestly don't think it should be up to the customer to tell you to wear a mask properly - I'm not a person who likes conflict and is uncomfortable telling people what to do, but it made me feel uncomfortable and later on I was even feeling uncomfortable to eat the macarons because I kept feeling like what if droplets got on these?? Etc. I know that's not likely but still - they're the thoughts that go through your head and something the business should be aware of. So I would just say for future be aware of proper mask use.
