Breeze Cafe

Breeze Cafe

Sunset Park

A neighborhood ice cream parlor slinging real Slush Puppies (lemon lime tastes exactly like childhood) alongside homemade scoops and Italian ices. Cheap, sweet, and a local favorite for celebrations.

Tucked inside a restored 1920s pharmacy, this whimsical café serves artisanal gelato and sorbetto spiked with boba, plus inventive creations like the Waffagatto and Matchagato.

Daly Pie

Daly Pie

Start your day with a slice at this cozy pie shop where flaky crusts meet creative fillings like guava hand pies and caramel coconut icebox. After 5pm, grab Pie and a Pint or Wine and Daly in the backyard.

SkyIce Thai Food & Ice Cream

SkyIce Thai Food & Ice Cream

Park Slope • $$

The ice cream here is banging, as regulars will tell you. SkyIce pairs solid Thai street food with wildly creative frozen scoops: think Thai Tea, Black Sesame Seaweed, and Durian that converts the skeptical.

Chocolate lovers, this is your temple. Choc Mania serves waffles, crepes, milkshakes, and coffee in a space where even the walls and ceilings are chocolate-inspired.

Frequently asked questions

How are these ice cream in Brooklyn chosen?

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.

Is everything here still happening?

Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.

How can Outgoing help me find something I’ll actually want to do?

Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Do I need an account to use Outgoing?

You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.

Is Outgoing free?

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
