Vegan ice cream and toppings - Edit
There were three vegan ice cream flavors, vanilla, chocolate, and coffee, along with a few sorbet flavors that are also indicated as vegan. They were vegan toppings including vegan hot fudge. There was also a vegan cookie.

Reallllly good ice cream! - Edit
Long line is worth the wait. Creamed corn was interesting! Though it tasted a lot like peppercorn as well. The cookies and cream was delicious. And the dark chocolate was probably my favorite.

Best Ice Cream (hands up & down) - Edit
They have the best plant based ice cream. Done right and wholesome as well. The vegan cookies and cream is excellent. They always have at least 3-7 vegan options. Their coconut sorbet which is technically (the best) vegan vanilla around. They also sometimes have vegan vanilla bean and other varieties which is essentially the same as the coconut sorbet. The vegan chocolate very good, and they always have creative options weekly especially during holidays. Their fruit sorbets are amazing as well and pair really well with the vegan vanilla!
Read morePros: Best plant based options in NJ, Wholesome, Cool area (downtown Princeton)
Cons: Small space and can have long lines sometimes

Fabulous [vegan] ice cream - Edit
The vegan coconut ice cream is truly divine. I spent the outrageous $9 on a pint of it, and genuinely have no regrets because it is THAT good. My omnivorous family did no realize there wasn't dairy it. Even my grandmother who thinks the vegan Ben and Jerry's flavors aren't creamy enough (which cracks me up) approved with gusto!
Read morePros: Creative flavors & vegan options, Locally sourced ingredients , Cool, community vibes

Yummy vegan options! - Edit
This place was busy when I went but the service was quite efficient. They have just as many vegan options as non-vegan ones and the flavors are pretty unique! They made sure to clearly repeat back the order and were super friendly! My only criticism is that there was only one size cup. I tried the vegan dark chocolate mint, which was super creamy, and the rosemary lemonade sorbet, which was very refreshing.

VEGAN MALT MILKSHAKE - Edit
THE VEGAN MALT MILKSHAKE REMINDED ME OF MY CHILDHOOD. SO GOOD! They had different vegan milk options for my shake as well! I look forward to trying their vegan hot-chocolate and whip cream.

So good!! - Edit
Hit the spot on a hot day. The chocolate sorbet was a little too sweet, but the Thai basil coconut with mango was amazing, as were the other fruit options (which I don’t usually go for).

Best ice cream I’ve ever had! - Edit
This place is hands down the best ice cream I’ve ever had—dairy-free or otherwise! They have unique flavors (not just fruit sorbets) and it’s super rich and creamy.

Amazing vegan ice cream - Edit
The (vegan) dark chocolate sorbet is the BEST. It’s the richest vegan chocolate ice cream I’ve ever had. Several fruit sorbets are also available (I recommend mango and raspberry). They also have vegan hot chocolate and some vegan baked goods.

Good!!!! - Edit
Really liked the sorbet! I love how they have a vegan cookie (yum!!) and that all their sorbets (clearly marked with an “s” sign) are vegan. The staff knows what vegan is, and is happy to answer any questions.

Heavenly Ice Cream and Sorbet - Edit
Bent Spoon is quite a phenomenon. They opened up an ice cream store right in between two of the most well-regarded ice cream shops in town... and outdoes them both. Or put another way, Bent Spoon found fills a niche: they offer very unique (mostly locally sourced and sometimes organic) ice cream flavors and sorbet (dairy free). The staff is friendly and you can sample as much as you'd like before you order. You can also pick up to two flavors with a small order.
Read morePros: heavenly ice cream, unique flavors, locally sourced
Cons: lines can be long, wish it were open a bit later
