Before going to this place, read this article. (because citysearch won't let me use a word of more than 35 characters, i had to insert spaces in the link. copy and paste it into your address bar and remove the spaces to read it) h ttp://consumerist.co m/5026730/brooklyn- ice-cream-shop-owner -stole-25000- from-customers This place seems like a great spot if you like being the victim of false-advertisement and credit card fraud!
Pros: none
Cons: owner is a criminal

this summer I moved to brooklyn heights and was so excited to have the blue pig with delicious and unique homemade ice cream right around the corner. After almost daily yummy ice cream cones this summer (i admit i was obsessed) you can imagine the horror on my face when I went in there tonight and saw Dryers and Haagen Dazs in the Blue Pig freezer. The blue pig is still out front but this is definitely no longer the blue pig -it's now a big sell out. Not only was the ice cream sub par but the cones sucked. Also, since it's merged with the Busy Chef next door it's lost the charming ambience it once had now that it spills into cheap generic cafeteria chairs and bad prepared food. Why can't the Heights get it right? UPDATE - the blue pig quickly responded to my posting and said the imposter icecream was just a temporary measure b/c they ran out. I am hopeful that is in fact the case and will gladly update this review once the good stuff returns!
Pros: nice staff
Cons: why bother? ice cream is now the same commercial pints sold at Gristedes
