Small-Batch Scoops With Brooklyn Bridge Views at Fulton Ferry
Order a cone at the window, then watch the Manhattan skyline glow across the water from the pier.
🍦 Scoops by the Bridge
The Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory sits at Fulton Ferry Landing, right where the Brooklyn Bridge meets the East River. Step up to the window, take a cone, and drift onto the pier as ferries slide past the Manhattan shoreline. The ice cream is churned in small batches, dense and clean tasting, with a short lineup that leans classic, chocolate, strawberry, butter pecan, vanilla chocolate chunk. Red bistro chairs line the waterfront out front, and there is ample seating with an unobstructed view straight up at the bridge cables. Regulars rate it 4.4 across more than 2,400 visits, and most arrive at golden hour when the ferry district glows. Expect a premium price and a compact menu rather than a wall of flavors. Come on a clear evening, grab a cup of strawberry, and settle in near the railing as the bridge fills with light.
