Ice Cream Parlor · Williamsburg · 33 tips and reviews
Tristan Durand: Gianduja (chocolate hazelnut) and nocciola (hazelnut) gelato were very tasty and not too sweet. Real Italian taste, not overly sweet American ice cream. The portions are big, I recommend the small cup
Kimmie Ohh: Their daily flavors are posted on the wall. Be sure to add on panna (whipped cream) to your gelato. They have simple syrup at the bar to add to your espresso & latte drinks!
Ben Stern: Just fantastic gelato, as good as the best in Italy

emma tangoren: rosemary hazelnut chocolate chip cookie is the best 🍪
Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guide: Much larger than the original Williamsburg Bakeri, this relatively cavernous branch has its own unique design touches, friendly service, signature baked goods and tolerable coffee.
Ryan Jorgenson: Beautiful bakery with delicious baked goods, solid coffee, and a decent selection of tea. Sit at the bar and watch the bakers bake whilst baked.
