Our Story

FivePennies_2_04.jpg

Five Pennies Creamery is the brainchild of Dan Levine.  As a native New Yorker and Brooklynite for over 40 years, Dan set out to create a mom and pop shop that reflected a classic, and sometimes forgotten, New York.

Named after the timeless film, The Five Pennies, which chronicles the life of jazz singer Red Nichols, & tells the story of a man who values love over career ambition-- our ice cream is just that.  We're low in pretension & corporate gimmicks, but high in quality & rich in love.

After serving the Rockville Centre community for over a decade, Five Pennies Creamery closed its doors in December 2022 with the message:

“Serving this community has been one of my proudest accomplishments and highlights of my life. I’ve seen generations of kids and families grow; I have grown with them. … Thank you for helping shape the community around the shop and supporting us for so many years. I’m humbled by your collective kindness, honored to serve so many, and proud of any joy Five Pennies may have brought to your life.”

Five Pennies Creamery will be reopening in the Hudson Valley in Spring 2024.
 

"With just five pennies, if they're these FIVE pennies, you'll be a millionaire"
