Halo Pub

Our ice cream is locally made in small batches at Halo Farm, our dairy in Lawrenceville, NJ. We only use pure cane sugar, the finest fruits, nuts and chocolates. Our ice cream tastes better because it is better, and we never over charge.

Best quality ice cream around (especially for the price)! I grew up in the area and it’s usually one of the must-eat stops when I’m back in the neighborhood .

Lance Lacoff

Nice gem in downtown princeton for coffee , tea , ice cream , or other sweets. You can get a scoop of delicious ice cream added to your hot chocolate !

Doug Byrne

The ice cream cakes are great. The real fruit flavors show, and not heavy with the frosting I've had on other cakes . Be sure to order ahead.

Doppio macchiato and a strawberry banana nut muffin top... for $2.30!!!?! Why go anywhere else? Great quality, too. No tip jar, either... Donations box for a camp for kids.

I honestly think Halo Pub has the best ice cream in Princeton (however I might be biased because I've been going there since I was younger). Chocolate chip cookie dough is amazing.

Rachel R

Best quality ice cream in Princeton , and for the best price as well . Try their delicious dome-shaped mini cakes in the pastries displays.

Gabrielle Dava

Great ice cream , reasonably priced too! Chocolate chocolate chip is my classic fave but also love strawberry heath with mango ice cream . Their hot fudge is delicious!

Nicole Lee

Ice cream , espresso based coffees , and pints to go! Even their donuts and muffin top deals are good too!

Best of the big three ice creameries in Princeton, get something nutty or fruity . If it smells like cleaning products eat outside.

Kim & Heather

Chocolate chocolate almond with chocolate sprinkles and extra hot hot chocolate with extra whipped cream . We've ordered well today.

JanieH

They no longer give the free pastry or donut with your morning coffee . Still go there as they make great coffee and less expensive than most other places close to the library .

Vaidehi K

Beautiful creamy ice cream . It's not on the menu , but they'll make you an affogato if you ask for it.

Julie

$.25 pastry with any coffee purchase. Best espresso in Princeton and best prices ($1.00 for single espresso or macchiato ).

Jasmine ????

The superior spot for traditional ice cream flavors , especially coffee ☕️

Ryan Hennesy

$.90 espresso shot and mochas made with chocolate shavings . Ice cream is superb, and the One Scoop is actually two scoops. Try it cremaided, if you can!

Andrea Plasko

Delicious, no-frills ice cream . Better than Thomas Sweet and Bent Spoon for plain ice cream !

JanieH

They have great coffee and you get a free pastry or donut with it in the morning for as long as they last. For $2 you get a good cup of joe and breakfast too.

Best Ice cream in Princeton , in a town with 3 great places to get ice cream ...this place is the freshest, best tasting, with the best ingredients Ive ever had in Ice Cream

Vineet Shah

Halo Pub makes the perfect hot chocolate . Creamy, not too sweet, and none of that powdery stuff you've had elsewhere.

Sabina B.

A Princeton institution - best ice cream and milkshakes , plus you're supporting a local farm #WinWin

Jess

Great coffee ice cream , try adding fresh whipped cream ????

TKGO

The ingredients come fresh from the nearby Halo Farms micro dairy, and you can taste it. I'm a fan of the refreshing soft serve flavors, especially the sorbets .

Wilm Kemper

Delicious ice cream , second best I know (best one: VENEZIA in Vreden/Germany)

Penny Hartfield
