Van Leeuwen Ice Cream Adding PB Locations

(Press Release) West Palm Beach, FL – October 9, 2025 – Van Leeuwen Ice Cream, the nationally beloved brand known for its made-from-scratch dairy and vegan ice creams, is thrilled to announce its highly anticipated
debut throughout Palm Beach County. The brand’s second Florida scoop shop opened its doors on
Friday, September 5th, within the NORA District at 870 North Railroad Avenue, bringing its signature
French-style ice cream and fan-favorite flavors to West Palm Beach. This debut follows the recent
opening of the Miami Beach location in March 2025 and marks the first of Van Leeuwen’s expansion
throughout Palm Beach County, with upcoming openings in Palm Beach Gardens and Sundy Village in
Delray Beach taking place this Fall.

“What started nearly 20 years ago as a scoop truck on the streets of New York has grown far beyond
what we imagined, and we’re so excited to bring Van Leeuwen to Palm Beach,” says Ben Van
Leeuwen, co-founder and CEO. “Palm Beach County’s vibrant community, and laid-back coastal
charm make it the perfect place for our next scoop shops. We can’t wait to share our ice cream with
locals and visitors alike — good ice cream that makes you feel good.”

As part of its Palm Beach debut, Van Leeuwen has partnered with Lilly Pulitzer—the iconic resortwear
Palm Beach-born brand—for an exclusive, limited-time assortment of custom Lilly Pulitzer cups
featuring prints from the brand’s 2025 collections. Alongside the co-branded cups launching in
Mid-November, the NORA District scoop shop will feature a limited-time Lilly sundae crafted with Van
Leeuwen’ s Key Lime Pie ice cream, Fabbri Strawberries, whipped cream, and graham cracker crumbs.
These custom cups and exclusive sundae will be available only at the NORA District location, while
supplies last. As Van Leeuwen’s first Palm Beach County storefront, the NORA District scoop
shop—short for North Railroad Avenue—features bold color block elements to complement Van
Leeuwen’s signature design concept.

The Palm Beach Gardens scoop shop features exciting design elements including custom ceramic tiling
inspired by the brand’s Marionberry Cheesecake and Praline Butter Cake ice cream flavors, alongside
interactive counter seating directly in front of the waffle cone station, providing guests an opportunity
to watch the behind the scenes making of the cones while enjoying their favorite sundae.

Located within the heart of Downtown Delray Beach’s historic Sundy Village, the Van Leeuwen Delray
Beach scoop shop will be the brand’s second standalone storefront. The store is surrounded by an
open-air courtyard and the preserved architectural charm of the village’s landmark buildings.

All Palm Beach County scoop shops will feature the brand’s special Florida ice cream flavor –Key Lime
Pie, while also offering new seasonal flavors for Fall that includes Italian Hazelnut, Pumpkin
Cheesecake, and Passion Fruit Sorbet. In addition to these latest menu additions, the shop will also
feature Van Leeuwen’s extensive menu of 25+ signature flavors, including BIGFACE Coffee Affogato,
Honeycomb, Brown Sugar Cookie Dough Brownie, Pistachio (made with Sicilian pistachios from Mount
Etna), Marionberry Cheesecake, and Earl Grey Tea, alongside sundaes, milkshakes, housemade waffle
cones, ice cream sandwiches, and pints-to-go. Popular vegan offerings including Banana Bread
Pudding, Peanut Butter Brownie Honeycomb, and Strawberry Shortcake will also be available.

Founded in 2008 as a yellow ice cream truck on the streets of NYC, Van Leeuwen has since gained a cult
following for its ultra-creamy French-style ice cream (made with twice the amount of egg yolks as
standard ice cream), innovative vegan options, and unexpected collaboration flavors. From its
award-winning Vanilla Bean (named best vanilla ice cream by The New York Times/Wirecutter) to
buzzworthy limited editions such as Kraft Mac & Cheese, Hidden Valley Ranch, and Espresso (with
singer-songwriter Sabrina Carpenter), Van Leeuwen continues to push the boundaries of ice cream.

All Van Leeuwen Palm Beach County locations will serve scoops, sundaes, and pints to-go. For more
