Mister Dips Cherry Dip Cone
Berry Gibbs: Cherry Dip Cone with Strawberry Ice Cream

Mister Dips is a food stand located just outside at the William Vale Hotel for the warmer half of every year and is the brainchild of Andrew Carmellini. Though they serve burgers, waffle fries, and floats, what makes this place worth visiting is their soft serve ice cream.

They have three unique soft serve sundae options on the menu: (1) Jacker-Crax: buttered caramel popcorn soft serve with salted peanuts (2) Malter Cronkite: chocolate and vanilla soft serve with loaded crunchy malt and (3) Berry Gibbs: strawberry soft serve with whipped cream, vanilla wafer and a cherry hard shell dip. Each is served in a cone.

Alternatively, you’re free to mix and match whatever you’d like or just have one of their flavors plain. The four flavors they offer are vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and for whimsy’s sake, popcorn! The soft serve itself is really good quality. Creamy, richer than most, smooth, and not too sweet. And the chocolate soft serve in particular is really fantastic.

There’s a bit of outdoor seating immediately next to the stand, but you could easily take your order and eat anywhere around the hotel’s many outdoor areas. Actually, if you walk a bit, you could eat it on the water front.

Though it’s not worth a trip to Greenpoint solely to eat at Mister Dips, if you’re nearby, you should definitely check it out.
