Atlanta, we’ve got quite the ~scoop~ for you! The iconic, NYC-born, and nationally beloved ice cream brand, Van Leeuwen, is opening up an Atlanta location soon in the Ponce City Market! Keep scrolling to see why this is so special!
What is Van Leeuwen Ice Cream?
Known for its cult-favorite dairy and vegan ice cream, as well as the #1 best vanilla ice cream (by The New York Times), Van Leeuwen is a can’t-miss ice cream spot. Think the Leopold’s of NYC ;)!
Ben Van Leeuwen, co-founder and CEO of Van Leeuwen Ice Cream says,
We’re so happy to finally bring Van Leeuwen to Atlanta. Atlanta is such a great American southern city and we’ve had our eye on it for some time. Now that we’ve found a location that we love, we can’t wait to begin scooping our ice cream for our new neighbors. Plus, we have partnered with Bomb Biscuit Co. to create a limited-time sundae to celebrate our first Atlanta scoop shop – it’s one you won’t want to miss!

Ice cream is probably my second favorite thing to eat outside of biscuits, so it’s wild to see this sundae come to life. I’m honored to have been chosen to collaborate and be a part of Van Leeuwen’s opening celebrations in Atlanta.
