    Our selections. All good.
    Jenny G.

    Picking a non dairy ice cake for father's day. Can't help to try their non dairy ice cream. So much selection of non dairy ice cream. Amazing. The selections of regular ice creams were amazing as well. I wish they make their ice cream cakes with more flavors. Therer was only chocolate/vanilla. We walked into to a crowded line. Walking straight into the store were seating. Service was fast. The guy was very helpful in servicing us. Definitely going back to try their other flavors. If u haven't. Go! For all the lactose intolerance fellows. Finally found a place for non dairy ice cream and cake that are not overly sweet.

    This was the straight up weirdest ice cream shop experience we've had. At 11 pm on a Saturday we enter this large but unassuming ice cream shop. We instantly realize why all the parking spaces are taking there were (I'm not exaggerating) approximately 200 orthodox Jewish people here for an 8th birthday party. It's loud and there are kids of all ages running in every direction, it's loud and chaotic to put it mildly. We ordered on ice cream cup with two toppings (to split) and it took literally 15 mins for them to make. I know this because they sent us a text saying it would take that long and then another text when that time passed. For some pretty average tasting ice cream.

    3.5 stars** Vegan ice cream! Not the best, but it's the only one in the area. Great vegan ice cream cakes! This was the only vegan ice cream cake I've ever had and it was great. I went here again and I wasn't so satisfied. Their ice cream tasted like 95% cream and 5% flavor - extract and food coloring? It was very sweet and they over charged me and gave me the wrong cone after I told them twice. It was busy so I understand. I would come back for the ice cream cakes, and give the other flavors another chance. My stomach wasn't happy afterwards. =/ Maybe my tongue and stomach has been spoiled with better vegan ice cream. I have yet to find another joint that makes vegan ice cream cakes so I will be back.

    Waited on a very long line. When it was finally my turn the guy behind the counter started to help the person behind me. When I finally did get my frozen yogurt I had to toss it out. It tasted like shortening mixed with cardboard. If you're looking for frozen yogurt steer clear of this place

    Creamy, delicious ice cream. Large portions, reasonably priced. Tyrant toddlers trampling on your feet and then asking if you're in the line.

    Take my Ice Cream House review with an enormous grain of Kosher salt, as I felt it conflated quite a few issues (and I get sensitive when it comes to how I spend my money and what I eat). Let's get it out of the way up front that I respect the faith-based aspects of this operation, and none of my assessment of Ice Cream House impinges explicitly upon anyone's beliefs. I knew the proclivity of the area going in. I was fully cognizant that it's not strictly vegan, as the Yelp categorization indicates, and that dairy and non-dairy do not mix. I verified the prohibition of cross-pollination via the dairy and non-dairy windows, which cater to the clientele when it comes to hard flavors (and the separate machines for soft-serve). It's my fault for requesting that I try one dairy flavor and another non-dairy one with separate spoons, not realizing the scope of this dogma extended to those not cut from the same cloth. The sheer hostility with which I was met, however, is something that is not only bad for business, but is socially unacceptable. Intolerance is much different than blatant disrespect, the latter of which I did not and would not exhibit, though onlookers could've easily been misled. Do not confuse lack of exposure for malice, and you can incorporate more customers. Make these things clear up front and maintain a customer base that dabbles in both. Do not alienate potential revenue through nasty attitudes and personal animosity. This seems to not be exclusive to religious issues, as they are also irrationally rigid about other policies. They do not disseminate a phone # to customers (admittedly obnoxious ones, but prolific spenders nonetheless). Their explanation is that they get too busy to answer; could've fooled me, given the foot traffic through here over the course of an entire summer day. Perhaps this is because their 2 staffmembers seemed inordinately overwhelmed by the 3 customers inside. MOVING ON...The space itself is typical-bright-ice-cream-shoppe-cum-candy-store, and I tried one dairy and one non-dairy hard flavors (much to their chagrin) and they were average at best (nondairy coffee was rancid and bitter like a straight bean and the dairy pb&j was ok but something I have whipped up at home before). At $3 for a scoop and $4.50 for 2 and $5 for 3 (hard), I opted for a medium soft-serve @ $4, but unfortunately they were not receptive to my order. I ended up with a single dairy flavor (vanilla, identical to that at Mickie D's) and they did not honor my response that they didn't let me finish my order. For the first time in my life, though to myself, "wow, the sugar-free, fat-free might've been the better choice". I was, of course, told to use the spoons I had sampled with to eat my purchase; guess they didn't realize I'd be tainting the dairy if I mixed the non-dairy spoon in there. I see the merit and I respect the mission, but no. Never again.

    I like their decor a lot, but I'd say skip this and head across the street to Blueberry, which serves froyo.

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.

I also got the kale salad & was pleasantly surprised with it- it is hard to make kale taste good but this place successfully managed to do so. The roasted chickpeas & feta was a nice touch. On top of that, the tahini dressing complemented it well. I'd definitely go to this place again.

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.
