Five Pennies Creamery — Restaurant in City of Beacon

Five Pennies is worth every penny. They have a large variety of hard ice creams that they make on site, and I haven't had a bad one yet. They have 36 flavors at any given time, some of which are seasonal and will change. They also make their own waffle cones and ice cream cakes, which are again fantastic. The locals all come here, but the line is always moving and the staff is incredibly helpful. If you're not local, this place is right in the heart of Rockville Centre, which is a gorgeous and very walkable neighborhood with an incredible amount of diversity - there are sushi places next to Mexican next to vegetarian next to Thai, along with a movie theater and many stores. It's very vibrant. If there's any criticism, it's simply that parking is rough - I often have to park blocks away and walk. You can make a full day or of being in this neighborhood and hitting the shops, bars and restaurants, so it may be worth taking a cab/Uber/Lyft/whatever so you don't...

Consistently great tasting homemade Ice Cream. Tried the Boston Cream Pie and Toasted Coconut for first time. They serve floats and sundaes. There are times you can spot the owner in the back making ice cream in his kitchen. The have very small vegan ice cream options but tase delicious too (we'vetried them). I was told they have about 130 ice cream flavors, which they rotate as soon as one is sold out.

Their service has been great throughout the Pandemic. The space is open for indoor dining, AND they have sample tastings!

I love this place so much. I’m from Queens, NY and I come to pickup ice cream here every chance I get. It’s out of the way, but worth every bit and I’ve been hooked ever since my first taste. Coffee chip is an amazing flavor, please give it a try ! I don’t even enjoy coffee that much, but this ice cream is amazing! My boyfriend raves about the peanut butter milkshake to and how it’s the perfect consistency so if you like creamy milkshakes try that. Also gorgeous interior of the store with homey old feels. The place has character and the staff is very attentive as well. During the recent pandemic, I stopped by few times and the staff followed protocol so well, made me feel safe, helped facilitate the whole process and even thanked me for my business and wait. I will always come back! Thank you for the...
