Jacques Torres Ice Cream
“I got the coconut sorbet and the banana flavor, that only means that I was so full and could not finish any other flavor!”
“Everyone has to try Jacques Torres' signature cookie ice cream, which contains pieces of his chocolate chip cookies.”
“The coconut sorbet and Wicked flavors are standouts and you can get 2 flavors in one scoop for $3.50 – love it when places understand me like that.”

A nice lil chocolate shop in a wonderful place on a spring/summer day. Delicious big chocolate chip cookies while you chill on the grass overlooking manhattan. Id say thats a perfect day. Id wanna come back to try the frozen hot chocolate and compare that to Serendipity. The chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich didnt seem good cause the cookies were so hard. the softness is the best part of the cookie!
How wonderful to have an ice cream store next to a park that houses a magnificent carousel. Even better when the ice cream store serves the best ice cream sandwiches in Manhattan,..though the Jacques Torres on King Street tops it by having a worker outside to make your sandwiches fresh! On a hot summer day I rode Jane's Carousel and then came to get the ice cream sandwich and then went back to the Carousel. Now if I could make the ice cream sandwich last, then I would ride Jane's Carousel with an ice cream sandwich in one hand, and my honey's hand in my other, and life would be perfect then.
$5.50 gets you a huge sandwich, good enough to share. My sister, a very fussy critic, keeps talking about the ice cream sandwich we shared at the Manhattan location. One of life's simple pleasures. Vanilla or strawberry tastes the best with the cookies. I am a bona fide chocoholic but somehow, chocolate ice cream cancels out the chocolate in the cookies while the other two flavors enhance it. Vanilla is smooth and rich while the strawberry is slightly tart, a nice balance.
The frozen hot chocolate at Jacques is also amazing.
Wicked Ice Cream Sandwich for the win!
I always look forward to visiting DUMBO and Brooklyn Bridge Park during the warmer months because I know the wicked ice cream sandwiches will be plentiful in supply. Though, as a pro tip, feel free to ask for them in the off months, they might have a few hiding out in freezers in the back.
All of their ice cream sandwiches are a really good deal at $6 since each of the cookies alone are $3, so it's like getting some delicious ice cream in the middle free of charge.
I recently walked across the Brooklyn Bridge with a couple of friends who began to look at a Mister Softee truck with lust in their eyes as they walked down the steps from the bridge and I had to pry them away with promises of the amazingness that Jacques Torres. One of my friends took my wicked recommendation. The other othered a sorbet cone, which, I'd never tried before, but now I can vouch for, at $4, it's a delicious deal.
This ice cream "shop" is actually just a stand inside the Jacques Torres shop. It's not the best ice cream ever, but it's cheaper than Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory and will satisfy a craving. The coconut sorbet and Wicked flavors are standouts and you can get 2 flavors in one scoop for $3.50 – love it when places understand me like that.
So many flavors and so good! I got the coconut sorbet and the banana flavor, that only means that I was so full and could not finish any other flavor! If I could, also want the vanilla rum, chocolate chuck flavors. They were nice enough to give me free tries so as to make sure I am getting the most that I want! Not too sweet and made fresh, love it with full heart!
Stumbled by this place when my boyfriend and I arrived to smorgasburg too late. Tried three flavors and the girl was clearly annoyed with us. For $3.50 a scoop I expected better customer service.
A small shoppe beside the Jacque Torres chocolate shop. You wouldn't even think this is also Jacques Torres' it was plain and simple. Looks like a regular ice cream shoppe nothing fancy shmancy. Got the salted caramel and chocolate ice creams on waffle cones. Love it! Will definitely try other flavors soon.
Great ice cream and sorbets. I particularly liked their salted caramel ice cream sandwich and their mango sorbet.
