I like supporting this chain, but I had a very bizarre experience with an employee named Regan. I asked for a very small milkshake, and said I would pay the same price, but could they just make it much smaller. They said that was not possible that it was corporate policy. I didn’t ask for no plastic lid, but they again said I had to take a plastic lid because it was corporate policy and the Van Buren tradition to have a plastic lid on every milkshake. I’m simply against waste and the use of plastic and was trying to do well by the environment.

You haven't tasted incecream until you've tried Van Leeuwen's! The peanut butter&brownie flavor is to die for. Staff friendliness depends on the store but the taste of the icecream makes up for it!

I don’t get it. I know it’s popular but It just not for me. Maybe my tastes aren’t sophisticated enough. My favorite ice cream at the store is Hagen Daz but if I am in Ohio. Omg. Graeters from Cincinnati is primo! If you are ever visiting Dave C in Yellow Springs Ohio go to YOUNGS DAIRY. AT ANTIOCH COLLEGE DURING THE 1960s 70s YOUNGS DAIRY WAS DAIRY HEAVEN.

I visited Van Leeuwen with my son, who has multiple severe allergies. I informed the staff, and I want to give a heartfelt thank you to Emil and Melinique for their outstanding support. They were incredibly kind, careful, and attentive, making sure my son felt safe and included. Their professionalism and warmth turned what is usually a stressful experience for us into a joyful one. I’m deeply grateful and will absolutely be coming back. Thank you for making our day!

Van Leeuwen always has a nice selection of vegan ice cream choices, clearly labeled. This branch is comfy, with a few nice places to sit and enjoy your treat.

One of my favorite spots for ice cream in the city is Van Leeuwen at 258 W 16th St. I’m especially obsessed with their chocolate ice cream with honey roasted almonds — such a perfect combo. They’ve got tons of flavors to try, awesome milkshakes, and options to take home too. Always a treat stopping by here!

This level of customer service really made such a difference. The ice cream is beyond delicious, but the man who was working, Emil, really made me a Van Leeuwen fan for life.
My daughter and have a sensitivity to dairy. We went to 16th st location yesterday and had our little minds blown with the most delicious non-dairy ice creams from Van Leeuwen. I had the sweet potato marshmallow pie, and she a dark chocolate brownie milkshake. Sooooo yum!

We really enjoyed this café! The ice cream was absolutely amazing - rich flavors, creamy texture, and a great variety to choose from. A special thanks to the guy at the counter - he was super sweet and friendly, helping us pick the best flavors. The only downside was that it was a bit chilly inside, so we couldn't stay long or try more. Still, we'll definitely come back!
