Was really 4.5 stars but leaned 4 bc of size of location - but was awesome ice cream/custard creation. We got a seasonal treat called smores - dripping chocolate in the middle w a roasted marshmallow on top - and it was so so good.

Nice desserts. The employee's are great and accommodating with recommendations. The price isn't bad either. Small space though, there isn't anywhere to sit and enjoy the food, but overall my experience was great!

At first we didn't know if we were in the right place, but we relied on the good reviews and went in. It was AMAZING!! You would not even know the soft serve is Oat milk based. I got the chocolate soft serve with peanut butter and pretzel and it was to die for. Easily top 5 ice creams of my life. Waffle cone 10/10. Would come back here in a heart beat ?

A great rubbish ice cream, we saw it on several Instagram reels and decided to go try it, it cost us approximately 8 euros and our great experience is that the ice cream doesn't taste like anything, it has 0 flavor and to improve it the size is very small for the price it has.Don't waste your money on this place as it is a complete scam on the consumer. And finally, in the establishment you will not be able to sit quietly and eat it since it is a small place, please do not be fooled by the comments and the happy reels that you see on Instagram.

This was by far the best vegan ice cream I’ve had. Their icecream bases are from oat milk, making it especially creamy and delicious. You have the option to choose from their preset menu or create a combination of your own. The staff were super helpful, friendly and patient with those unsure what to order. I chose a vanilla base with graham cracker crumb coat, coffee sauce and a toasted marshmallow. The location itself is a bit small, but not too much of a concern as most people can enjoy the ice cream on the go. It was amazing, I can’t wait to head back and try out something else !

Looking for a tasty dessert, my family and I decided to try this place out. It's a small spot and depending on the day you might have to wait anywhere between 15 mins to an hour, again depends on the day and time. When you arrive be prepare to order through a kiosk. Currently unsure if it was only that day but, when we approached the cashier they told us we have to do it through there. What caught my interest was that- this wasn't your regular Ice Cream place. They're oat-milk & plant basedServing delicious and creamy soft-serve, sauces and toppings. My choice of flavor was vanilla with chocolate sauce in the middle, & cookies and cream as the topping. Although, it can be a bit overwhelming and messy it was different but tasty. I would have to rate it a 8.0/10. My family all said it was good as well just, overwhelming with the toppings. They are known for this though so it's understandable. All their ratings were from 7.5 to 8.0 / 10. I do recommend going for yourself and giving it a shot. Also, recommend checking them out online for their menu, go in there with an idea already- rather than wait till you there and now you're holding up the line because you unsure of what to get.

This is a really fun and exciting place to grab vegan/non-dairy desserts. Yes it’s Instagramable as you’ve seen but it’s also tasty. The person working that day was friendly and made a wonderful dessert for me! I think they’re redoing their interior because it’s not much too look at, Bert little seating but that’s how it is sometimes in NYC. Definitely go out and try this treat!Vegetarian options: Vegan! Non-dairy!
