“An unfortunately overlooked gem right in the middle of deer park. Charming, cozy, and straight up delicious, this cafe has the right stuff to give the cafe chains a run for their money.Immediately upon walking in, my partner and I were greeted warmly, as they insisted we try their award winning gelato. The wide spread of homemade unique flavors made deciding a difficult but happy struggle. The fresh espresso coffee and pastries were simply delightful.Should our stomachs be allowed, we would have eaten everything. We look forward to returning and trying something new.“
“Their ice cream is delicious, and they are very generous with their servings. The staff always has a smile. It like going back in time when familes went to the ice cream store, sat down together and enjoyed their company. We love itParking: It's a busy strip of stores. So off hours are easy. But prime time, it's difficult.“
“When it comes to eating, this place has that Sonic Drive-In/Friendly's vibe; the food (burgers, fries, chicken, etc.) may not be something to write home about (much of it is "alright" at best) but the desserts (ice cream, shakes, malts, floats, etc.) is where the menu truly shines! Each ice cream concoction (including one of my faves, Rocky Road) is stuffed to the brim with mix-ins and the shakes are just the right kind of thickness.The girls who served my friends and I were very friendly with warm smiles and polite suggestions to get the most out of our eating experience. They even let me sample a flavor of their ice cream (after which I knew I was getting dessert with my meal!) so I knew what I was in for.The ambiance has that charming Pizza Planet vibe to it (If you've seen the movie "Toy Story" you get it!) filled with outer space decor and space-themed names for the menu items making it very family-friendly. If it had an arcade (or at least just a few cabinets), that would be pretty cool! (I'm not knocking points off for that one btw!)The place is definitely a good place for quality desserts and customer experience. As for lunch or dinner, it's good but I'm pretty sure your local diner may satisfy you a bit more. Overall, I highly recommend anyone to give Cosmos a visit!Kid-friendliness: The outer-space decor screams kid-friendliness and so does the customer service of the employees.“
“I have tried alot of bubble tea places and this one is REALLY good! My friends and I got the Rose Milk Tea, Taro, and Earl Grey Milk Tea. The Rose & Earl grey were the best in my opinion! The boba was also really well made, soft and chewy. Service was great as well! Overall a great place for bubble tea, I will be coming back soon!!“
“They serve sundaes, cakes, shakes, ice cream and so much more. It is family owned and operated and is a very easy going and laid back place. They make you feel like family and the ice cream is to die for. It definitely tastes homemade. $8 for 2 scoops $5 for 1 “
“My boyfriend & i went to this ralph’s and now we can confidently say this will be the only ralph’s we go to. John, the extremely nice & attentive owner, was the sweetest person we have ever met. he had been closed for an hour and still gave our order to us with a huge smile and great conversation. we were extremely apologetic since we came so late but he didn’t care, he talked to us for 10 minutes and made our day brighter. we love ralph’s but we love this ralph’s A LOT!! his staff is amazing and we couldn’t help but tip them for there amazing work.sincerely danielle & mike“
“When you go inside it is just like any other carvel. The ice cream and flavors are the same as any other carvel we have been in, so many options! But the difference is the people behind the counter are always really nice and helpful. I always have a good customer service experience every time I come. Also, they are clean.“
“So glad we went! My wife and I came in thinking we would try the place out for hamburgers. Thanks to our superb waiter (I believe his name is Marty), he told us about the special that they had, and it was too good of a deal to pass up. The chicken sandwich was delicious, and truth be told would have been well worth it at the regular price, but as a special, it was a steal!For an app we decided to split the pretzel. It was quite large, had great dips to go along with it, and came out warm, fresh, and perfect.The chicken sandwich (we both ordered it) was flavorful and moist, and great sauces to accompany it, which we enjoyed with the French fries. We could not finish it all, but that did not stop us from enjoying the milk shakes at the end.I'm so grateful for the waiter telling us about the special, and he was extremely attentive and personable. I can honestly say he treated us as if we were dear friends, and could not have been better.Looking forward to going back and eventually trying the burgers, as they looked fantastic!!“
“This place was pretty good. It could definitely use some tidying up, but other than that the ice cream was amazing. It was a really good spot for us to visit while we were visiting Long Island. The service was great and the ambience of the ice cream shop was definitely old school. we will definitely be back again when visiting the area.“
“It was very nice and my children loved it and the workers were also very kind.This was probably one of the best restaurants i've ever been to. This is one of the places where I didn't want to go again.Kid-friendliness: We love it here What is my new favorite restaurant to go to. Agree about how good this place was definitely gonna go here again.“
“The best Carvel store anywhere. Secret, Soft serve large is BOGO everyday of the week, just ask for it. On most days there are SIX different dift serve flavors. The same Family operated business for years. The young employees working at the counter are always courteous and polite. This place gets packed certain times of the night but the lines move fast. They'll also accommodate your special ice cream cake orders. Hard scoop ice cream is available. Freezer cases always has an assortment of ice cream novelties.“
“I love all the ladies that work at this Carvel. They’re so nice whoever’s doing the hiring there is definitely choosing the best candidates for customer service. They always have a smile on their face or a suggestion for when I’m not sure what I wanna get.Parking: There is a parking lot to park in but if you happen to be there on a busy day, there is a side road and a gas station across the street that has plenty of parking that you are allowed to park on for free. There’s no restrictions. But I’ve never had an issue with parking.Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly! What kid wouldn’t love an ice cream shop plus they have like the sweetest staff that works there“
“The staff here are all great people. The prices at Carvel are still good too! $7 and change for a large sundae with toppings. Hope this review gets people a raise. Always experience great service and the employees here deserve all the positive recognition they get.“
“Honestly this Friendly’s location is my favorite they always make the food fresh and everybody it’s always friendly. I ordered three kids meals and they were made with such care. I will certainly be coming back to this location. Thank you and have a good night. I’ll see you soon. Again, good night sleep well sleep well. I’ll see you again soon. Good night again. See you soon. OK? Good night!! What are you still doing up?“
“i normally don't leave reviews but they were so so sweet, fantastic customer service and the man who decorated the cake was very efficient and did a beautiful job. unfortunately i wasn't carrying cash on me to leave a tip, they don't take tips on card just a heads up!! so i went back to my car and grabbed whatever i had & went back in. like seriously lovely people thanks guys didn't catch ur names“
“We had our daughter’s 3rd birthday here this past weekend. The party was flawless and stress free. Alicia was so accommodating from the moment I inquired up until the very end of our party. We did not feel rushed, the place was so clean, the staff were wonderful and put up our decorations for us! Five stars!“

“I ordered a custom cake for my brothers 16th birthday and it was amazing ! The woman who helped me was so friendly , and honest. When I told her I wanted black icing, she advised that black is difficult because it needs a bunch of different food coloring and doesn't taste good, so we ended up going with red. She really took her time to make sure we were on the same page and had everything correct. I was worried the picture would look tacky or blurry because its printed but it looked like it was drawn right on the cake. Definitely recommend this service !“
“I had a party with 50+ people and thanks to the efforts of my Hostess with the Mostess crew, it went off flawlessly! I was provided 2 servers and a bartender and they began working immediately upon arrival. They were all professional, courteous and extremely pro-active! I didn’t have to ask them to do anything-they simply took the initiative themselves! I highly recommend this company as this was not the first time I used them and have always been happy the day after!!“
“I stopped in for ice cream, and my card kept getting declined, despite there being plenty of money on it. I kept asking the girls to scan the card at the top of the POS machine, and they kept telling me they cannot scan the card until the card was entered into the machine three times. I have never encountered this before.I really think there is a mistake, because the scan option was implemented to protect consumers from having to enter or swipe their cards at a POS machine. I never scan my card at retail establishments anymore; I always scan my card at the top of the machine, and my payment is always accepted. I am never told I need to enter my card three times before scanning.It ends up some lovely woman paid for my ice cream anyway, which I am highly appreciative of.“
“Carvel ice cream is a delightful indulgence that transcends mere dessert—it's a creamy, flavorful journey back to childhood nostalgia. Each spoonful of Carvel's signature soft serve is a symphony of rich, velvety texture and luscious flavor, making it the undisputed champion of soft serve treats. The ice cream is so deliciously creamy that it easily surpasses any other soft serve on the planet, setting the gold standard for frozen delights.As someone who grew up savoring Carvel ice cream, every bite is a reminiscent journey down memory lane, reminiscent of eagerly saving up pennies for that coveted Carvel cone. The nostalgia wrapped up in every scoop makes the experience all the more magical.Moreover, the friendly staff at Carvel adds to the charm of the experience, always serving up smiles along with the delectable treats. The extensive selection of cakes caters to every celebration, ensuring that Carvel is not just a destination for soft serve enthusiasts, but also a go-to for special occasions.And let's not forget the iconic flying saucers—a heavenly combination of creamy ice cream sandwiched between two chocolatey wafers. They're a must-try for anyone seeking the ultimate frozen delight.“
“Always a nice time when I go with the family. So many options and the customer service is awesome. Only wish they would clean up the tables outside. They are old and rusty. And preferably get some that can withstand the elements. Sometimes prefer to go to the ronkonkoma location just to be able to sit down and enjoy without needing to rush back home because the the outdoor seating isn’t really clean.“
“Great place for breakfast and lunch. Staff is friendly and professional. Awesome hot and cold coffee to go or enjoy there - inside or outside. They make awesome egg sandwiches and have delicious meals to go (including pasta and meatballs, turkey and mashed potatoes and salads). Highly recommend!“
“After a night and good eats and drinking I decided I needed sumn a lil sweet so I wanted to get coldstone... my partner convinced me however to try carvel as I've never tried it because I never had one in my home town. BEST. DECISION. EVER. I went ahead and tried the bananas foster sundae dasher oh my gosh was it delicious the sweet caramel and bananas and the perfect vanilla soft serve that was the oh so perfect texture and creaminess it was so creamy that it made me cream a little (a little yuro quirkiness only jokes!). My partner tried the Reese's one and let me tell you he is one boy that absolutely loves his nut! He's now hooked as well he slurped the whole nutty cup up. Since my first time going last week 7/11/23 I've thought about the goodness everyday since and I've had 4 dashers and you best believe I am now a proud member of the fudge fanatics! If you are ever in the mood for something sweet and for a good price come here it's about 6 bucks for a small dasher which is a good price considering the size and amount a small price to pay for being full of cream and satisfied. LOVE LOVE LOVE carvel and I will never let any other sundae fill my tummy again! And a not from my partner- I will never let another nut inside me again unless it's from Carvel Thanks. YM“
“A genuine heaven for ice cream lovers for all tastes, even with dietary differences! Everything is obviously homemade, which is hard to find even in great ice cream parlors. The hardest part is choosing what to get! I've had a chocolate root beer float, which was blended perfectly, a salted caramel shake, sublime and flavorful, and a classic banana split, which blew me away. It may be quite a ride from where I live, but when out this way, I highly recommend Sweet Sensations! I've turned friends on to it as well, and it's settled; whether you're vegan or not, have food allergies or don't, you're guaranteed a good time! Not living in the area and visiting, it can be overwhelming how much Babylon town has to offer, especially food-wise. However even on cold days, I make this place a priority! There are cute areas to sit and enjoy the ice cream too!“
“Carvel is the best place to get ice cream cakes for any occasion. They have a variety of flavors and custom designs to suit your taste and style. The cakes are handmade in-shoppe with fresh ingredients and delicious crunchies. I love their Fudgie the Whale and Strawberry Crunchies Cake. Carvel ice cream cakes are a celebration in itself“
“There is nothing better than walking into an absolutely beautiful place that takes you a little bit outside this world we live in and provides the best in teas Ice cream and incredible coffees I am so glad they built this place it is warm inviting the staff is fantastic and if you can remember please tip well because these people work their butts off and they deserve it“
“Awesome yogurt and toppings! I came here almost every night when I was younger, and I still want to come here. I was here last in June, and ate their yogurt that tasted very delicious. However, I think they should renovate the eatery, it’s a little dirty and old, but overall it’s very nice!“
“Honestly the best frozen yogurt and the best toppings anywhere! Employees are nice and courteous!!!Kid-friendliness: Always come here after my son and daughter's school concerts. Filled with parents and a lot of kids. The owner and the employees are super professional even with 30+ kids running around .“
“COFFEE SO STRONG YOU’LL BE FUELED ALL DAY. Single origin, roasted in house using a zero emission coffee roaster. OMG All the bells and whistles a cafe could have, they have. Love the friendly and knowledgeable baristas. Quick and efficient service. Also an amazing place to work all day. Bathrooms are clean and well decorated. They open early and close late. The best in SMITHTOWN!! A must visit.“
“acai bowls are great! however, I’ve tried their bubble tea multiple times and not a fan- too watery. staff is always nice and polite! looking forward to trying other things on the menu.edit: bumped up to 5 stars bc I’ve tried various things here and loved it besides the bubble tea. I’ve been like 7x & each time the staff was really kind & cordial which is rare in a business honestly.“
“The town of islip is your typical Main Street. The best part is the very popular homemade ice cream shop. You name the flavor- they have it. Even mini ice cream Sunday’s. Seating was limited, the staff was friendly and the ice cream delish. ?“
