Mike Chau: Try the Ice Cream Sandwich - Peanut Butter cookies with Sumatran Coffee ice cream. Perfect consistency cookies and ice cream for an ice cream sandwich.
Brian Masefield: Their coffee ice cream is the coffee-est. Delicious.
Brandon F.: You can’t go wrong with the ice cream sammich — peanut butter cookie with Sumatra coffee ice cream would be my recommendation. It’s essentially an edible orgasm. Excellent service, too.

Ashley: Great ambiance! Love that they have kombucha!
BrooklynMuseum: Staff Pick! Jillian (Editorial): This place has all the elements that make a bar great: large patio, well-sized dance floor, and weekly trivia.
BrooklynMuseum: Staff Pick! Will (Membership): This beer garden is perfect year-round. Franklin Park's staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the rotating selection of mostly-local brews.
Joshua Winata: Such unique flavors! Yes, you have to try the black sesame seaweed. But the refreshing sorbets, esp mangosteen and banana, are also very worth your while.
Serious Eats: The food is just average at this Thai restaurant, but we're fans of the ice cream, in particular the Thai tea flavor.
Real Cheap Eats: Try the Black Sesame Seaweed ice cream. It balances the deeply roasted notes of black sesame with a particularly milky ice cream, while bits of dried seaweed pops with unexpected umami. Read more.
