This friendly shop is just north of Prospect Park, a stone’s throw from the weekend farmer’s market there. It can be hard to find a seat with all the locals and stroller-pushers streaming in for an ice cream fix.
The organic ice cream is made with milk from grass-fed cows in the Hudson Valley.
We were huge fans of their Sweettart Strawberry flavor and saddened to learn that it isn’t being offered now. The server tells us they offer a Blueberry flavor that is equally awesome, and we’ll review that soon.
We got a cup of the Grapenut ice cream, which was really delightful. The ice cream softened up the cereal just enough so it still added texture but didn’t hurt our teeth like regular Grapenuts do. The cereal-y taste was infused throughout the Vanilla base. It was subtle, not overly sweet and just right.
Blue Marble also sells shakes, sundaes, floats and egg creams.
Not in Prospect Park? They also have a Cobble Hill location, and stands at the Brooklyn Flea and Governor’s Island
