Named after a line in a Walt Whitman poem - "I too lived - Brooklyn, of ample hills, was mine..." People talk about the salted crack caramel but my fave is the Ooey Gooey Cake.
The best ice cream in New York City. Hands down. Salted crack caramel is aptly named. If pistachio squared is available, get it! The Ooey Gooey will bring you to a buttery heaven. Just get it all!
Handcraftedice cream and sorbet made in small batches, Ample Hills gets its cream and eggs from local farms upstate for the freshest product possible, in 24 flavors that change with the seasons. Leia mais
It's so hard to choose one favorite flavor, so change it up each time you go. Definitely try the chocolate chip cookiecone at some point, though. Perfect stop before or after a walk to Prospect Park.
The menu is always in flux, but a few choice items are the Beer Muncheez and Cookie Au Lait, which pairs New York’s own Irving Farmespresso with sandwichcookies in a coffee-flavored ice cream. Leia mais
After spending an hour trying all the famous flavors I decided to go with a underrated flavor which was a balance between salty and sweet, the munchies has mini m&ms and potato chips, it’s amazing!
Incredible ice cream. Another one of my favorite ice cream places in the world. The flavors are rich and the scoops are large - ordering a double is often a mistake 😂
Ample Hills is about ice creams that are deliciously creamy!All their flavors are epic;some of my favorites are the ooey gooey butter cake, butter pecan, peanut butter cups and the cookies & cream
The 30s ice cream with those delicious red velvet cake chunks! oh God yes! 😳😖 it's like the reverse of ice cream cake, cake ice cream? Just know it's good. Great. Amazing.
I'm typically a chocolate guy when it comes to ice cream. The Ooey Gooey Butter Cake (the creamiest vanilla ice cream with hunks of St. Louis-style Ooey Gooey Butter Cake) is STILL one of my faves.
Awesome ice cream. Really fresh and the best ingredients. However sometimes consistency is a little off but it makes it more fun to eat! Try the pretzel cone YUM!!!
This is the original location. If you can't decide get the ice cream flight, 6 flavors(each scoop is about the size of an egg). They have some outdoor seating.
Takes you back to childhood with creative mix in for your now adult self (munchies, the dude, white russian, ooey gooey...) what's not to love when they let you taste as many flavors as you want.
Best ice cream possibly ever! Salted pretzel cone x Salted Caramel (Crackamel) ice cream is heaven. Don't even need the special cone, really just got it to have tried it once for novelty.
Gorgeous ice cream & homemadecones. Very friendly staff. Excellent service:when one staff member gave us the wrong flavor, another corrected it with no fuss and gave us an extra scoop to boot.
Don't miss the Salted Crack Caramel, an intense and just salty enough butter caramel ice cream that gets even better with "crack cookies," buttery chocolate-covered Saltines.
This is, with no exaggeration, the best ice cream place I've ever been and almost certainly the best ice cream place to which I'll ever go. Salted Crack Caramel, Ooey Gooey Buttercake, waffle cone.
You seriously can't lose. It's all money. I would roll with peanut butter cup or oatmeal cookie but you do you. Sample everything. Hot fudge is also good if thats your thing like it is mine.
I love an ice cream that is so chock-full of ingredients that you don't need to order any toppings. They always have a great flavor selection and their ice cream is super creamy.
VONY FB group comment: "Ample Hills always has a couple dairy free options (most of the time they're also vegan, just ask). Get the chocolate gelato if they have it..."
For a Jaws-inspired treat, try Beneath! This custom batch features beerice cream made from Magic HatCircus Boy with "bloody" honeycomb & crunchy nuggets of Ritz crackers, pretzels, and potato chips.
There's a reason there's a perpetual line in this ice cream shop. Flavors are all delicious across the board, but the Salted Crack Caramel and Cookie au Lait are worth a mention.
Village Voice is proud to welcome Ample Hills Creamery to the 2014 Choice Eats food fest! http://bit.ly/1cRzdNV. The Salted Crack Caramel flavor will cause symptoms of withdrawal.
Ice cream options are endless. Unique & classic flavors. What I've always disliked about this place is they can't find a way to keep the store cold, therefore your ice cream starts melting instantly
Make sure to check their Facebook page for regular flavor updates. Ooey Gooey butter cake is like eating the creamiest vanilla ice cream littered with pieces of decadent butter cake from St. Louis.
You no longer have to trek over the Brooklyn Bridge to get NYC's finest ice cream. You literally cannot go wrong at this Brooklyn-based ice cream shop with a cult following. Leia mais
The original branch - there's a bigger branch on Nevin's St now with a rooftopalfresco bit - but this branch is great too even if small. Order the salted crack caramel.
The quirky astroturf-covered exterior is the only thing that’s not 100 percent natural here. Organic ingredients and hand-churned scoops keep ice cream lovers of all ages wrapped around the block.
This place is too good! Every time I'm walking by I hear a voice, "Damn Girl, You look so hot. You know what would cool you off" this voice is just my boyfriend, but its always when we pass Ample Hill
If you stopped by here, definitely don't leave, grab a scoop, or two, or three, e.t.c., definitely the best Ice Cream spot in the NY Tristate Area. I recommend the Salted Crack Caramel as a first try!
Oatmeal lace and ooey gooey are by far the best, but you really can’t go wrong w any flavor here. Once September comes, stop going. Freezer burn is not it
Long lines for ice cream sound crazy, right? Not when the ice cream is this brain freezingly good. Simple sugar cone with ANY flavor will make your summer day. Give the pistachio a try, it's aces!
You can't go wrong with any flavor, and the salted crack is great, but IMO "Ooey Gooey" and "The Munchies" are supreme, esp. for sweet-and-salty junkies
The password for free WiFi is 'leavesofgrass' which is the name of a poetry collection by Walt Whitman (1819-1892). Note the short excerpt from his poem 'Crossing Brooklyn Ferry' above blackboards.
No point offering fave flavors cuz they add delicious new ones all the time! (Some perennials like salted crack caramel are always there.) Get a spiral cone when they have 'em—delicious, all too rare.
Nonna D's Oatmeal Lace is great!! 😋☺️ I wasn't a fan of the pretzel cone though, I think it was a bit too thick. A normal sugar cone would've been better.
Some of the BEST ice cream I've ever had. Salty crack on pretzel cone. caramely/salty, not too rich. The pretzel cone is kind of thick however...not necessary for the experience.
