Van Leeuwen Ice Cream

Van Leeuwen Ice Cream is a French-style ice cream scoop shop located at 375 Greenwich Avenue in Greenwich, CT, owned by brothers Ben and Pete Van Leeuwen who are Greenwich natives. Founded in 2008 and growing from a humble ice cream truck business that the brothers operated in Greenwich starting in 2002, the company now operates 33 locations nationwide and serves premium ice cream made with more than double the amount of egg yolks as standard ice cream, along with vegan options, cookies, sundaes, and milkshakes. The Greenwich location features an exclusive limited-edition collaboration flavor created with local French bakery Raphaël’s Bakery, reflecting the business’s commitment to supporting its community through creative local partnerships.
