There was a Fun Time Frostee Truck parked on a side street next to the Hilton Midtown. CON - $20 Cash for 2 large cones! Really? And to add insult to injury, there are no posted prices. PRO - It was good ice cream and more of a Midwest Custer consistency. EDITORIAL - Yeah the Guy on the Truck might we working hard, but I doubt he's being paid well by the company who really owns the truck. And who knows what it costs for the privilege of parking the Truck so close to the Halal Guys. read more

Fun Time Frostee Truck - Food Trucks Near Me

My daughter bought 3 ice cream for her uncle and cousin tonight as a nice gesture and this monster charged her $43. No prices listed and we didn't know until I looked at the charge on my card. Unscrupulous. I'm sure karma will serve you back. read more

Literally the shittiest ice cream I've ever had the displeasure of eating. Vanilla ice cream cone in a cherry dip, the cherry coating was chalky and gross and the ice cream itself tasted cheap and watery. No prices listed, so like an idiot I ended up paying $17.90 after tax. Do not go here. read more

Stay away of them. The worse experience had in my Trip to New York. Everything went smooth until I approached to the hell's truck. I got changed $43 for two ice cream shakes. First the guy told me it was $36, seemed overprice, but still agreed to pay it. The big surprise was when checked my account balance. The guy said it's a surcharge. What you receive is far from wha they promote in the pictures. read more

Bad ice cream. Just straight up not good ice cream and to charge $12 for a cone is a crime.

Would give 0 stars if possible. $24 for 2 cones?!?!?! No prices listed. Friend and I ordered. He gave me my cone and said it was $10. He then gave my friend her ice cream. I handed him my card thinking it was $10 for the both of them, but found out he charged me a total of $24. Ice cream was SUPER MEDIOCRE. Just look at the photos I posted. Incredibly disappointed and pissed off. read more

Fun Time Frostee Truck - Ice cream truck scam - Food Trucks Near Me

The ice cream vendor had a very nasty attitude tonight. I ordered just a plain vanilla ice cream cone assuming the price would be less than $5.00. So I gave him a $10.00 bill expecting at least $5.00 left in change. But he gave me back only $2.00 of course I was stunned. I then asked him how much was the ice cream cone? A reasonable question which I asked very calmly. He then responded I should had check the prices which were not clearly visible. Then he told me I was being difficult rudely shoved me away and told to leave after spending $8.00 on a cone which I should had saved that money and cut the calories. Of course, as a customer, I can make a mistake of ordering and not checking the prices especially from the ice cream truck. I should had really check the price before ordering. Of course once I place an order and receive the food that I am stuck with it. Once I touch the food, I have to keep. I can understand that. But it was the vender's attitude and the way he treated me after giving him my hard earned money. I could had let it go, he should not get away with being rude to customers especially after making the purchase. He could had say that he was sorry that he couldn't do anything about it after realizing that the ice cream cone cost $8.00. But his making me out to be a troublemaker which wasn't the case and told me to go was UNACCEPTABLE. You don't shove customers away after made the purchase. Never again I'm going buy ice cream from him or any other Fun Time Frostee I see on the street. It's not what you say or do, but how you say or do it. read more

This guy is a scam. No advertised prices - he allowed us to order two double soft serve cones and then wanted to charge $30 for them oh and I was going to pay that too until he said' cash only' which was not advertised at all. I told him that it wasn't right. I had $15 in cash - that's a fair price for the two cones but he wouldn't have it. I left with one cone and one kid crying. He should be ashamed. read more

Stay away from this truck! $32 for two ice cream cones! This is a rip off! They do not deaerve any star at all !! Return your ice cream if u can! I just couldnt post without a star!! Delete stars! read more

Stay away from any pink ice cream trucks while in the Manhattan area. It's just a rip-off. I didn't think that not having the prices listed was a big deal... boy did I learn quick! You have to be careful and watch out for "businesses" in New York that prey off of tourists. Many businesses are legit and give you a great New York experience - this is not one of them. Stay away from the pink ice cream trucks without prices clearly listed. Oh yeah, besides high prices, their products suck. You have been warned. read more

Fun Time Frostee Truck - $20 for a vanilla shake and a single ice cream cone. - Food Trucks Near Me

Not sure what the problem is here. You are IN MANHATTAN people!!! Lol!!! Everything is over priced out here. It is what it is. Drinks are over priced. Food is over priced. And yeah, ice cream is over priced. The city is expensive! Lol. As far as the ice cream goes....cold, fresh, and tasty. Everything that I wanted in my ice cream...I even expected to pay for the $6 ice cream. But my ice cream was delicious. The guy got it to me fast, and his service was kind enough. Looking for ice cream late night? This guy works! Good luck finding cheap ice cream at 11pm at night...in Manhattan. read more

Fun Time Frostee Truck - Single scoop cookie crush ice cream - Food Trucks Near Me

I was bought a cone 12/26 by Rockefeller center Christmas tree for $10, no thats not a typo. You know what's worse, the driver refused to tell me the price until after he made the ice cream. I asked him twice prior constantly yelling. This is a rip off, I'm never doing business with them every again. Either lower your prices or suffer in the lowering of the number of costumers you get. read more

The cones look ten times better than they taste, and begin to melt immediately, even when standing in the shade. I'm sure a one dollar soft-serve from the Golden Arches tastes better, but there weren't any nearby, so this had to do. I would suggest saving the five bucks, and purchasing a slushy at a corner deli to cool off. read more

Fun Time Frostee Truck - Cherry Dipped Vanilla Cone - Food Trucks Near Me

Worse experience ever. I get out the train and say ok let me go ice cream before class. I approach the van and the guy doesn't say hi nothing . I ask him a Spanish guy on the phone "do you have cups if I wanted ice cream instead of in a cone?" I hear him say "hold on" to the person on the phone . At this time I finally get his eye contact. And I ask him again and he responds " we have what u see here" pointing to the picture with an attitude. I looked at him smiled and said ok thank you . And guess what I walked Away. He was rude and obnoxious and didn't answer my question. I would much rather walk 2 block and go to donkin donuts and my ice cream there . They don't deserve 1 star. So sad bc I love icream they would of had a good customer read more

There was no line and no prices listed for a reason. Red flags in hindsight. 14 dollars (!!!) for 1 vanilla soft serve in a cup with chocolate sauce that isn't even hot fudge. It looks like a hot fudge in the pic but it's that weird Chocolate that makes a shell. Total rip off. Prices aren't listed. Not worth it. read more

All the drivers are independent and pay for their own routes. I know of one in the East Williamsburg area that sits outside his apartment before and after his route running the motor (which is very loud and stinks) sometimes playing the music (which is also very loud and annoying). I've seen him sell and/or buy drugs in the area. Avoid! read more

Total rip off. So upset to see that they literally change the price for every customer according to what I have read. Charged us TWENTY EIGHT dollars for 2 cones tonight, cash only. My sweet unassuming husband paid it and now I look back and see they pretty much charge people different prices for everything. Not that anyone will check yelp before buying, but I hope they do so they can avoid. read more

This truck is nobody's favorite in our neighborhood, and it has been coming through even more frequently now, during the period of quarantine, playing its inane tune (that even most kids I know I think is stupid and annoying) and selling its overpriced product. I work from home and always shudder when I hear the truck approaching. I was going to complain to the driver one day, but then realized that the invasive music is not exactly his fault, and that the poor guy has to listen to it not just once or twice a day for a few minutes but all the time. Talk about occupational hazard! read more

Not an honest business practice. Exactly the type that will rip off tourists any chance they get. We are locals and well aware of Manhattan prices for things after raising two kids in midtown, but these guys are out of control with their tiniest robbery prices posted way high in the truck on purpose so folks won't notice. Perfect candidate to file a report to the office of consumer affairs. read more

Haven't tried this truck, but I will say that I've personally observed a driver of the Elmhurst Truck to be dangerous driver; cutting off multiple cars, swerving between lanes, and running red lights to make turns read more

Total ripoff!! Ordered five ice creams for the family. Was asked for 80$!! When I said the price was much too high and that he must have calculated wrong (should have been a third of the price) he became very violent and screamed at me and the kids. Very unpleasant and hostile behaviour. DONT EVER BUY ICECREAM FROM THIS TRUCK! read more

This truck is keeping me awake at night, the music is loud and annoying. I've asking them to turn their music down or find somewhere else to go but they haven't done either. They literally park outside my place and stay there all night. read more

Total rip off! They do not post their prices and try to pass off a $4 cone as $8. Don't buy from these guys! If you do, get the price up front and only give them exact change. The server I had actually tried to tell me I had gotten a waffle cone (super large) when I had only gotten a basic wafer cone, a $4 difference! Like I don't know! He would not give me $1 change from $5! Despicable people!! Too bad they prey on kids and tourists with such scams! Watch out NYC!! BBB complaint here we come! read more

Fun Time Frostee Truck - Food Trucks Near Me

This place is a ripoff price wise and the guy working there refused to give me change on an order of $8 when I handed him a $10. Claimed that "sundaes with toppings are $10", even though sundaes were listed for $8 and *every single sundae shown had toppings* (what even is a sundae without toppings??). I won't be back and I'm considering filing a report to the city about this truck except I'm not sure who the right department would be; any ideas? read more

Home of the $8 no-frills milkshake. Just inside the Staten Island Ferry Terminal, you can get Hagen Das or gelato shakes for $6.50 or $5.50. The trucks (there's usually another one up the street at Battery Park. ) are clean enough and they serve average soft serve. No reason for the price, except to gauge touristas. read more

Fun Time Frostee Truck - Home of the $8 no-frills milkshake. - Food Trucks Near Me

Columbus Circle today, 10/25/20, around 2:30 PM: maskless guy selling/serving ice cream. He made fun of us when we politely asked "where is your mask?" and still did not put one on. NOPE, no sale here and hope others will protect themselves as well. read more

Must try! Great customer service and quality ice cream! Get it while you can! Vanilla rainbow is life!!!

I got the biggest shake float I've ever seen in my life at zucotti park. Every body there was smiling and for good reason, the ice cream was creamy and delicious. Also the ice cream guy had the cleanest baldy I've ever seen in my life and his beard was on point too. What a dude read more

Absolute rip off. Stole my kids' money. $15 for a small chocolate milkshake, $10 for a small double soft ice cream cone, and $5 for a small single soft ice cream code. read more

$8 for the worst, I mean WORST ice cream sundae ever! I ordered a strawberry waffle cone and the guy gave me a chocolate and insisted that's what I ordered. I would have walked away if he didn't already have my money. So I was stuck with $8 for something I did not want. I told him please I didn't order chocolate and he ignored me! read more

Do not go to this place!! FROSTEE THE FRAUD.... I go to the soft serve trucks at least once a week on the Upper West Side and this one posed to look almost identical as the authentic version. The prices aren't listed on the front of the truck and the man working inside made us pay $70 for four "waffle cones" and one soft serve in a cup. When I told him that his prices were insane, he replied with "I work for Italians"??!?!!?!?!?! Excuse me??? How do I contact the police read more

Prices are all duct-taped over. You'll soon find out why - $10 for a sundae, and not great quality or service.

Stopped at the truck that's located right outside of City Hall Park. I just rushed to the court house to submit emergency paperwork for my client and thought, 'Hey let me get some ice cream!' This little excursion was not anticipated so I didn't realize that I only had $2 rather than the $5 that was needed (HUGE $3 DIFFERENCE). When I realized this i apologized to the guy that was giving it to me. I understand how annoying that is and was not looking for him to give it to me. The guy then proceeded to call me a "stupid fucking bitch". It wasn't like I was holding up a line or anything, surprisingly no one was waiting. Listen, I've grown up in NY my whole life and I get that you're disgruntled and annoyed by the crowds everyday, but it's a bit unnecessary. Us New Yorkers are always disgruntled people, but the comments were not needed all the same. I've worked in customer service AND the food industry for 7 years and I get it. This man was absolutely disgusting and rude and if my first ever Yelp comment brings Some attention to the Tastee Ice Cream employers, then I'd be very thankful. Someone should NOT be dealing with the public, ESPECIALLY such a populated area, if he can't even control himself over a girl who didn't realize she had the cash. Someone else will take my vanilla cone buddy, it's a pretty popular item. read more

Posted price for 2 milkshakes is 16 bucks. Handed him a twenty and he wouldn't give me change, claiming "taxes and surcharge, and the price should be 10 bucks anyway." Ridiculous. Won't be getting my business ever again. Keeping my ear open for the Mister Softee jingle. read more

TOTAL Con-ARTIST Ripping off little kids. Pink and Green Frostee truck parked on the north west corner of water and whitehall street told kids that their three soft serve floats came to $38!!! THAT IS INSANE! The same item sells for $5 at the nearby Mr. Softee. read more

What a despicable rip off. At $8, you should get more than a cup of below average soft serve. The owner should be ashamed of him or herself. read more
