Van Leeuwen is slated to open its tenth SoCal location in Santa Monica at the former Erin Mckenna’s Bakery space. The artisanal ice cream chain is known for making its delicious creamy concoctions with the freshest, highest quality ingredients.
“What could be happier than that magic combination of milk, cream, eggs, and cane sugar (or coconuts, cashews and oats for our vegan friends)?” says their website.
Van Leeuwen was founded in 2008 as a food truck concept on the streets of NYC and has since grown to be a national sensation. The company features over 50 rotating flavors, plus vegan options, ice cream bars and ice cream sandwiches. You can also find Van Leeuwen products at grocery stores nationwide.
Other L.A.-area outposts include Woodland Hills, Studio City, Long Beach, Silver Lake, El Segundo, Culver City, Franklin Village, DTLA Arts District and Fairfax Ave. In addition to its California scoop shops, the creamery has locations throughout New York, New Jersey, Texas, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Connecticut, and Washington D.C., with additional locations planned for Massachusetts and Florida.
