INWOOD, NY — Just in time for National Ice Cream Month, Lost Borough Ice Cream is opening its second location in Upper Manhattan.
The new shop, located at 4791 Broadway between Cumming and Academy streets in Inwood, follows the success of the company's flagship Yonkers location, which opened in 2022.
Co-owners Patrick Cruz and Ka-wana Jefferson are bringing the brand's signature artisanal ice cream flavors, handmade cookies and community-focused approach to the neighborhood.
The Inwood shop will also feature exclusive flavors inspired by the area, including "Fort Tryon," a rose-based ice cream with cherries and praline pecans.
Lost Borough Ice Cream was founded by Cruz, who develops the brand's distinctive flavor combinations, and Jefferson, an award-winning hospitality entrepreneur.
The pair says their goal is to celebrate culture, neighborhood pride, and handcrafted treats through their business.
To mark the opening, Lost Borough Ice Cream will host a grand opening reception on July 7 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Following the opening, the shop will be open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
