UES.

Yummy flavors from Banana Brownie to Espresso Cookie are trucked in from artisanal SoCo Creamery in Great Barrington, Mass, but UES isn’t your typical ice cream shop. Ask to see the “storage room,” and enter a secret speakeasy with uptown-inspired drinks, like “Gossip Girl on the East” and “Absolutely Bradshaw.”

Big Gay Ice Cream

What started out as a single truck has expanded to a store in the East Village. You can also find their pints at a bodega or grocery store near you! Try the “Bea Arthur” or grab a pint of Blueberry Gobbler to go!
