Best ice cream. Now they also have soft serve, which is unsurprisingly outstanding - try the horchata flavor.

Best ice cream in Brooklyn. Pretzel cones. Snap, Mallow, Pop or anything with potato chips in it.

Try the Game of Thrones flavor (The Iron Cone). Black cherry ice cream, spicy dark chocolate, and sugar cone pieces. Diabetes is coming!

They have an awesome Ice Cream Lab where you can literally watch the magic happen. They even have a window down low for the little ones to get a peek.

Chocolate Covered Banana >>> especially for those who miss the chocolate-banana-chocolate ice cream from the old school ice cream trucks.

Dear owners: the ice cream is delicious, but you really should implement a limit on tasting. Every time I've been here the line has been held up by absurdly long sampling sprees.

Best ice cream ever! During the summer expect to wait in a que that wraps around the entire store. Well worth it.

Yes, the answer to your question is yes. Go inside and get ice cream. Don't worry about which flavor. They are all amazing. The answer is yes.

Yum. Makes a great gift to go in a pint if you want to skip the line.

The stout n' pretzels was awesomely guinness-y -- never have I had a guinness-flavored concoction that was crafted so well.
Eduardo CastroJanuary 31, 2016
It's a very heavy ice cream but I enjoyed it, it's delicious. Worth it.

Let's just say next time I'm gonna make sure I have the munchies and take the "munchies" flavor to the next level.
Sue LeeJune 6, 2016
There is no better ice cream than Ample Hills. I crave The Munchies on a sugar cone whenever it's remotely warm.

Yes they have amazing ice cream but don't sleep on their bangin' coffee drinks, including a solid cold brew coffee.
