Serious Eats

As classic as a scoop shop/soda fountain gets. Great milkshakes and ice cream sundaes that load on the toppings; don't skip the hot fudge or homemade whipped cream .

Untapped Cities

Two scoops of anything on a hot day is fantastic. It's all homemade . I like butter pecan and chocolate chip . Add a banana for that old-timey feel.

Spencer Vairo

This place is historic and has been open in the neighborhood for generations for good reason. Hot fudge is heaven on earth and is perfect with their homemade vanilla chocolate chip ice cream . Amazing!

Gothamist

Order a banana split at this authentic soda fountain & ice cream shop . With tin ceilings, and a menu filled with old school ice cream favorites, you'll feel like you're back in the 1920's. Read more

Sundae Sundae Sundae . I've been coming here my whole life this place makes their own ice cream & toppings from scratch which you can enjoy in an old timey setting. It's all good. All of it.

Vivian Ramirez

The ice cream flavors are not that amazing. The Sunday's are why you come here. Expect a crowd or a wait during summer. Great for a casual time with a small group- or a date.

Christina C.

Their homemade fudge is like crack. I don't even like fudge & I wanted to lick it off the plate, well , we did. :X The ice creams are delectable, but make sure to add the fudge . You won't regret it.

Kimmie Ohh

Their butter pecan is great! Love their homemade whipped cream . Always get a sundae here!

PureWow

Sometimes we want a classic banana split covered in whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles . On those days, we head to this 100-year-old Forest Hills creamery. Read more

I have passed by this shop many times & never noticed it until now... "Ol School" feel as you walk in... will be one of my go-to sweet treats from now on!! :)

Natalie

Cash only . Very affordable . Great for catching up over delicious ice cream . Hidden gem .

Anthony Windram

Could eat the marshmallow topping by the bucket full. Probably end up losing a leg through diabetes - but it'd be worth it.

Philo4Thought

The tip is to work your way slowly through the menu one weekend at a time. Kid/Family friendly , great staff . Nice quiet space to hang out.

Abigail Koffler

Coffee or coffee chip sundae is the way to go. Get homemade whipped cream and hot fudge .

Mike

You can’t go wrong with a 3 scoop ice cream sundae ! This place is a neighborhood staple and I’m happy to keep coming back!

Michael Abon

Eddie's will always be in the heart. Go for the chicane sundae and split it.

María Paz Domínguez

I do not know if I would want to go back, as I mentioned I do not revisit the place because the ice cream is amazing, but because of my loyalty to local business.

Leah Labrecque

Old school ice cream shop . Get a big old sundae to share with loved ones. The ATM is in the back.

David Lewandowski

Old school soda fountain , original turn of the century cash register, and sundaes with fresh homemade ice cream

Abigail Koffler

Good day? Bad day? Any day? It calls for coffee chip with homemade whipped cream and hot fudge . Insanely good.

Kimmie Ohh

This is an old-school ice cream shop . Love how vintage it looks in here ????

Devin Rajaram

Love the aesthetic of the place + it’s some really good homemade ice cream ????

Carms

Whatever you get, get it with sprinkles . They're the best here.

Felipe Torres

Old school charming shop...lots of ice cream flavors !

Amanda Vinci

Original on the inside, so adorable, so delicious

Charles Biletsky

A Forest Hills institution. Fantastic old school ice cream parlor . Home made ice cream and $5 shakes - what more could you ask for?

Nora Gomez

Go back in time in at this adorable spot and enjoy all of their homemade treats.

Jeremiah McCormick

One of the, if not the best black and white milkshake I've ever had.

Albert Li

Try the floats. The soda and ice cream are mixed and made by them. It is really good.

Jason Polkovitz

What's good here? What isn't good here? Homemade ice cream and old fashioned atmosphere.

Real Cheap Eats

"Every flavor is handcrafted , but the standout is maple walnut : rich, buttery, filled with nuts . Hot fudge is unnecessary on a scoop this beautiful" ($5.50). Read more

Sofia Burton

This is an institution. One of my favorite ice cream places ever

Jon Spiegel

As authentic as it gets. The best ice cream around. Must get whip cream .

Jose Betancourt

The peach ice cream was a delightful surprise.

Bryant Park

You haven't been to an ice cream parlour if you haven't been to Eddie's. The hot fudge is TDF.

Stephania Arenas

Get the vanilla malted milkshake ! A classic treat that's very well done here at eddies. I love the 1950s atmosphere. Very rare. Also, it's Zagat rated :)

Anthony

Doesn't even feel like you're in NYC when you step in here. Get some coffee chip ice cream !

María Paz Domínguez

The reasons for revisiting it are: to support local business and because it is so quaint.

Maureen Stamm

Best Ice Cream shop in Forest Hills, hasn't changed in years

María Paz Domínguez

Finally when we approached one of the helpers, who was standing around, she ignored us. So we decided to seat ourselves, we asked for a menu and another guy took our order and threw it on the table.

Alla F

Like a trip back in time at this retro ice cream shop . It was est in the 1920s and looks like everything is original. Ice cream is just ok

María Paz Domínguez

I have been to this place a few times and they have been pretty pleasant until yesterday.

Dane B

I love everything that this place embodies, but the product itself is overrated. I don't get the hype about the whipped cream . It's literally just that. Not even a hint of sugar or vanilla .

Ron Amram

Home made ice cream served in a time capsule. Don't forget the toppings, like home made ice cream .

Susan Liang

Love the coffee chip ice cream ! Super creamy. Get the orange freeze too if your a dreamicle lover

RichelleMabell

If you're feeling nostalgic, this is the place to go. The prices won't break the bank either.

Christine Tran

They don't update the menu so ask your server for the latest flavors.
