Surreal Creamery

Loud, photogenic sundaes — but the plain soft serve underneath is the actual reason to come.

This place does simple and it does fancy, and you can’t really go wrong either way — but we go for the plain soft serve. Get the smallest size; the portions are enormous whatever you order.

What to know

Bonus tip, and it’s a good one: Pommes Frites is right next door. Get an order of fries, bring them over, and dip them in the soft serve. You probably did this as a kid. It still works.

Going? Tell them MUSEENYC sent you. It's not a discount and there's nothing to redeem — we just want them to know where you heard it.
