“🍦 5 Stars – Amazing Ice Cream & Even Better Service! Gal’s Place Ice Cream is the perfect spot for a sweet treat, but what truly sets it apart is the incredible service from Emmy Claire and Josie. Every time we visit, they go above and beyond—friendly, fast, and always with a smile. They make the experience so enjoyable and memorable. Honestly, they’re the kind of employees any business would be lucky to have… and they definitely deserve a raise for all they do! Thank you, Emmy Claire and Josie—you make Gal’s Place the best around!“

“Warm, friendly atmosphere with welcoming people made the visit special, and the Toasted Caramel Apple Butter Latte was cozy, and absolutely delicious today!“

“We chose Windows on the Bay, because it was highly rated and on the water. We were celebrating our 50th Anniversary with our son and his wife. We were able to sit on the deck, look out at the water and the boaters, and enjoyed a fantastic meal with great service. We did not need a reservation. Because other restaurants where we planned to eat on Sunday night were closed, we ate at Windows again and had the same enjoyable meal and service. Both waitresses were very efficient and personable. The food was great. As we are from Long Island, NY, we were used to paying a lot more for that kind of great meal.“

“Great staff!!! Feels nothing but homely here!! Great food and even better servers“

“Theeeee best poutine! OMG, it’s sooooo delicious! 😋 The waitresses/bartenders are super friendly and efficient! I highly recommend this restaurant when you’re in the Alexandria Bay area!“

“This place turned out to be a blast, Great service from the staff especially our waiter Chris. We were a rowdy crowd and he took it all in stride! A great time was had by all!“

“The food is tasty but the portions were small for the price.“

“Nice place, accommodating of families. That had indoor seating with window A/C. The food was good and at the price point I would expect in a tourist town during the summer. I found the service to be good. I recommend them and would definitely go back.“

“They have yummy ice cream and every kind of candy you can think of. They are usually very busy. We only went there once this trip. Most trips there are daily visits. This trip we stopped at a different ice cream shop once or twice! Is it any wonder that I bring some extra pounds back home with me?🍨🍦“

“We had a wonderful time. we are coming back for the Duprees.“

“😊I have eaten here many times, especially summer and deep into fall. We bring family. We bring friends from out of state. We find the menu consistently creative, lots of choices, many things to like. Hard to pick a favorite, but like fish tacos and paninis, plus apps. Some of the desserts can be just awesome. I'll be there again at least several times this summer. Always find the people nice and welcoming. I have had lunch (mostly) and dinner, and even met for business of a non-profit there. It is a favorite place on the river.“

“The Food is Amazing! The price is fair (better than average for Alex-Bay), the service is great, and the atmosphere is perfect! This is the best place to eat in A-Bay!“
