    Super cute little ice cream shop off Franklin. I normally go at pretty odd hours so it's always been really easy to get in and get out. The ice cream is really good, and the flavors are so unique! Great spot for the summer

    I am rooting for this place!! All the way from MD I heard about it a couple months ago and I told my sister we'd have to try when I returned to the city. I kid you not... I went three days in a row for a treat LOL. This is a Black-owned vegan ice cream (and cookie) joint. All of the ice creams are coconut-based, and flavors include Madagascar vanilla bean, chocolate, key lime custard pie, cookies & creme, and so many more. They're very generous about their samples, and they offer silver tasting spoons... so much washing, sheesh! They also sell maple syrup in two sizes, and that's because literally everything is sweetened with maple. No direct sugar either?! Seriously, what a treat. And another thing I love about it is one scoop is only $4.99 -- for a vegan spot that's incredible. Now, mind you, it's not a giant Coldstone scoop, but it just feels better than paying the $7+ I'm used to seeing. They don't have toppings yet, but the ice cream is a treat on its own. Now as for the cookies... they had 4 different kinds when I went: Chocolate chip - I didn't get to try this one (and on my final visit it was sold out), but my sister was obsessed Vanilla sugar - my older niece was obsessed, and I tried it and really enjoyed too Maple pecan walnut - Not a pecan or walnut person, but the base cookie is so good it doesn't even matter. Wow. Double chocolate - by far my favorite. The chocolate with the slight sweetness of the maple was such a hit I could've had 14. I cannot wait to return to the city and see what new creative flavors they have. I'm invested.

    I've been meaning. To come here with every since I moved from Brooklyn, getting to deeper into the borough takes a little more effort. My friend and I came here after lunch on a Wednesday and it was pretty quiet, the nice counter gent explained all the different flavors, so we tried quite a few. Lrt it be know..... They all taste amazing. I ended up going with 2 scoops (they are small) 1 jamrock the other Hazel & Joe. Sensational combination Two days later, a friend craving ice cream went to a place and was disappointed, so back to Maple Creamery ftw!!!! This time a super nice gent at the register even chatted us up on the love and natural ingredients in each batch (i still didnt guess one of their key ones, lol). See you guys again soon!

    Fantastic flavors in a small store in Prospect Heights. They don't advertise it but their "Ice Cream" is made with coconut milk/cream and sweetened with (of course) Maple, which is great for me. Try the Hazel and Joe, Yuzu, or Pistachio as they'll light up your taste buds. Maybe a cookie too?

    They offer delicious flavors. You can really taste the quality of the ice cream. Also, the owner was really kind and was passionate about the business. You can sample flavors while you're there too!

    Stopped in while in the area to try the ice cream. Was so happy to find a place with a variety of dairy free ice cream. They have a bunch of fun flavors.

    I didn't even realized this was plant based and no dairy because the ice cream was creamy and rich. I had the French toast flavor while my mom did chocolate. The French toast treated like vanilla with cinnamon which was good for me since it tasted simple. The chocolate ice cream was definitely rich in flavor and really chocolate-y. I definitely have plans to come back and try other flavors

    This little ice cream store is SO cute, caught my eye as i was strolling around the neighborhood! The ice cream itself is CREAMY, not too sweet, and flavors are fun & interesting!! Everything is sweetened with maple syrup, so YUM. The servers are super friendly and the menu is affordable!! I liked the portion sizes as they didn't make me feel ill after eating dessert LOL. The cookies (vanilla & chocolate) are delicious as well - soft, crumbly, not too sweet. They have a small seating area on the side for a couple friends. The store is spacious to hangout in as well.

    Woah, did I just have a deliscigasm from some local handmade vegan ice cream that didn't cost me a car payment!! Heavy hitting new creamery right off Franklin Ave bringing some AMAZING flavor to the neighborhood in the height of the summer. Couldn't be any better. Tired of walking to Washington for a $8 scoop of 2 vegan options... ($4 /scoop here) Maple Creamery had a whole spread and the best part is you'd never know it wasn't made with milk or eggs unless you asked! The owner Collin (sp?) started experimenting with making his own desserts after getting these 'ice cream hangovers' from too much dairy, cane sugars and other products. Perfecting his craft and sharing it with friends encouraged him to get a full blown store. And I couldn't be more grateful The secret is coconut cream.. a natural thick and tasty byproduct of just one thing... coconuts. This is what I'm talking about, this is what vegan should be, plants first and bringing their beauty to new heights. Love the ethos and story behind this place. I tried a scoop of the strawberry and pistachio. Creamy, sweet (but not too sugary like syrup), so much flavor and texture. I've never had vegan ice cream like this or even dairy ice cream. And my grandfather has a creamery when I was a baby! The store is pretty small so not much sit down options but there are shade trees nearby and a huge sidewalk to hang on. Amazing work and persistence to the team, they definitely went through some trials to open this venue. It was empty for so long and now it's time to shine. Congrats! And I will definitely be back!!

    I truly recommend this dessert/ice-cream spot. Great customer service and delicious clean ingredient ice cream. Perfect for people who are want to indulge themselves but know you are eating something with good Whole Food ingredients. I will be visiting often

    Vanilla Cookie, and Yuzu Ice cream

    As dreamy as it looks is as dreamy as it taste! What an Experience! I have had the pleasure to enjoy Maple a few times and the service, care, and joy this place brings me never fails. The ice cream gives comfort without guilt! The Yuzu is a citrus, tangy, creamy smooth, delectable literal statement of the word ice CREAM! Along with the Vanilla cookie which is thick, crispy sides, and bottom with a soft bite, and a perfect balance of vanilla bean. The combinations are perfection at its finest! Spectacular Imma need 14 of them RIGHT NOW! All that to say GO...TODAY. You won't be disappointed

    Relatively new, this shops fills the void for a sweet treat in this area…read more It's such a adorable space to enjoy your dessert . I'd been meaning to stop by and was happy I did today. The owner Ashley was very sweet and took time to fill us in on the concept and give insight on more additions coming to the shop ( bakery items). She gives samples so we tried the dairy free mixed berry- bursting with fruity goodness. We then got cones of Black is King -the most intense chocolate (Madagascar)flavor I've ever tried. It's insanely good, don't skip it if you're a chocolate fan. Both my hunby and son agreed it's the best chocolate ice cream we've had. I had the Ethiopian Coffee ice cream, so good. The ice creams are made without eggs and preservatives,made with fair trade ingredients from Africa .Vegan options are available. Frozen drinks offerings as well. There's loyalty card that I'm sure will not be difficult to quickly fill up. There's a cute little table for kids too. Great aesthetics, great service and great ice cream. Cash or card. Closed on Mondays. 12pm to 8pm other days No bathroom. Take out or dine in.

    First off the place is very cute! Service was great! I was greeted as I walked in and the owner was…read morevery polite. She was patient as I sampled various flavors. I ended up getting a cookies and cream. Loved it! Not too sweet. Be sure to stop by and grab some ice cream y'all

The staff since I was friendly and I tried a couple flavors before settling on two which were $8.50 with one scoop being $6 and three being $10 I believe with the scoop sizes being pretty big. In terms of ice cream texture, it's not as creamy as some other spots but I don't mind a thicker ice cream and the sorbet was not too icy which was definitely a plus. I went with one ice cream and one sorbet with those being the Sorrel Rum and the Soursop Ice Cream. While I usually prefer ice cream pretty heavily over sorbets because of texture, I preferred the sorrel as it was strongly flavored and just outstanding. I love sorrel having had it multiple times because of my workplace and this was a excellent version with a bit of sourness but not too much and a bit of spice presumably from the rum or some other spices they use for the sorrel with both being likely. The soursop was a bit lighter but still had enough guanabana flavor to be unique (though without the texture of course) and I would still recommend it. I also tried someone else's Guava Cheesecake Ice Cream which I also liked and I was happy that it wasn't overly sweetened as many guava pastries/ treats are. I would be very happy if this place opened up a location outside of Crown Heights as I liked the flavors a lot and it would be a nice spin on the general ice cream places usually located in Manhattan or the Asian ones popping up. I think LES would be perfect for instance but for now, there's definitely a possibility I would go back down here and get more of this if I'm going to be going back here for dinner or something similar.

I was thinking to myself, could it be like Kulfi? Turns out yes! It's even better with the flavor assortment and consistency! They had fun combos like saffron pistacho, rose pistachio, mango and cream etc. we got the saffron pistacho and mango & cream split combo for $8.50 and hmmmm it was so good! Both flavors were distinct. I loved the mango one as it actually tasted like Indian mangoes and the pistacho one actually tasted like kulfi. The consistency is imo so much better than gelato. It's creamy and melts in your mouth. The ambiance is cosy, lots of people just hanging out like at a 3rd space. The attention to decor is really good, the walls and ceilings also have this classy look and feel. The service was great. They let me try 2 flavors, and my husband 1. You could also buy pints, if you'd like. Overall, 10/10 spot. Would 100% recommend!
