“This was my first time visiting this Ralph's location. I was greeted with a very pleasant hi, welcome to Ralph's! It's owner was there and she was wonderful. The store was clean and had so many different options. I took my time and ordered something for everyone in my family. The owner was great and I didn't feel rushed and they helped me by recommending some of the wonderful flavors to offer. They offer ices, cream ices, soft serve and sundaes. Would recommend this location to others looking for a cool treat on a hot day!“

“Coyle's of Bayshore always delivers a wonderful ice cream experience. All of the employees are cheerful, helpful, and friendly. Anna, the manager, has created a welcoming and family-feeling environment. To top it all off, all of their ice cream is homemade on premises, and you simply can't find better. This place is a must-visit for any ice cream fan; my family travels all the way from Huntington for it!!!“

“I have to share an incredible story with you.. It’s long so please hang in there. One of my children had their tonsils out last Wednesday. I’m sure when this happens as a child it must be horrible, I know growing up so many of my friends had their tonsils out, but I was completely unprepared for how healing would be for my child who is an adult. The recovery has been so much more than any of us anticipated. For their recovery I was asked if I would bring up Blue Hawaii ice from Ralph’s. Off to the store we went, purchased a few half gallons and brought it on the trip with us as we met up with our child the day of surgery. 24 hours after surgery my baby was a mess, the pain was horrible, and the only thing helping was blue Hawaii ice from Ralph’s! I called the store and asked if there was a way to ship the ice to my child. The gentleman on the phone, who I now know as the owner of both the Selden Ralph’s and the Farmingville Locations immediately started to explain to me how we may be able to make that work. The next morning, after my child had already gone through a half gallon, I realized I had to try. When I called that day Pat took charge, not only did he do the research for what I needed, he got it all together for me. He even went so far as to tell me that if he couldn’t figure it out he would be willing to drive the 2.5-3 hours to bring it to them. (Let me add in my other child who is on the island with me was just diagnosed with a concussion, and needed me home so I was unable to be with my child who was recovering from surgery 😭) Pat went to UPS for me and picked up the right size box and the packaging I needed. Then he went on to get dry ice to make sure Blue Hawaii would survive the trip. While the local dry ice place wasn’t so kind, he then drove to Bay Shore to another reliable source who helped. (This was now taking up a ton of this mans time, a decision he made to help me to help my child feel better at no additional charge or perks for him. Without his help I would have never been able to figure this out or get it out that day) He packed the order and I had a friend meet up with him who would then take it to UPS for me to ship it out. So off the ice went on its journey. And it arrived 100% prefect to my child the next day. Yesterday I finally had the chance to meet the man who cared enough to go above and beyond for my family. He didn’t have to do this, there was nothing in it for him, he even gave her extra ice, and I honestly believe he would have taken the drive himself. I went back in to purchase yet another gallon and a half for my child who has not spoken since the surgery but when I FaceTimed them from his store yesterday they did so to thank this wonderful man blue tongue and all 😂. As I am now sitting on the ferry reflecting I needed to share this story with all of you. I am a big believer in being there for one another and what a random act of kindness can do and the impact it can have. This man could have just left it, he could have told me how to do it, and I could have attempted to stumble through while caring for my other child recovering at home yet he went the extra mile for my family. We already were huge fans of Ralph’s but they will now be our one and only stop. I hope if you have never given them a shot you will <3 and my child’s suggestion of course is try Blue Hawaii! I can’t wait to bring her more ice today!“

“The kids working there are always fantastic! It’s what makes Farmingville location better then all other Ralph’s locations“

“Amazing staff! Never a wait. Every Ralph’s should be run like this one!“

“Great place for delicious food and ice cream. Fun place to bring the kids. I loved my burger and fries and there’s so many ice cream choices. Staff is always helpful and friendly. Can’t wait to go back!“

“If there was an option for ten stars, I'd rate this place ten stars across the board! EVERY time I go to this location in Bay Shore, I'm so impressed on how spotless the whole place is. The one lady & man (he's usually in the back unless a few customers come in) that are always there are so nice. The lady is constantly cleaning up after herself after everything she makes. You can see that they work hard & appreciate the business. They give excellent customer service & I HIGHLY recommend this Carvel!



Parking: Because there are other merchants in the same plaza, parking isn't always so good.“

“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 !“

“Delicious and the best toppings!!! Always a special time with my granddaughter!🍨“

“it is a carvel that gets a great bit of traffic so everything is always nice and fresh.“

“Great place for Ice treats“

“UnMAtched Soft Serve“

“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.“

“their birthday cake ice cream is amazing !!“

“This place is a hidden gem! Lovely family-owned business with an amazing selection and outstanding customer service! I love that the boxes come with so many more bars than you get in the supermarket!! Plus, you can find items here that you never see in the supermarkets!!“

“I did a take out order at the East Islip location. The food was good but the super melts do not seem to have much meat on them like they use to. If the prices are going up with less portions that’s going to be a problem for Friendly’s. I would hate to see them go out of business because I love Friendlys too!!“

“I can’t say enough good things about Kool Kat Ice Cream Truck! I reached out to treat my daughter and her friends at her small school, and while other places turned me down because it was a small order, Kool Kat happily said yes. They made these kids so unbelievably happy! The man who came was incredibly kind and patient, taking the time to make sure every child got exactly what they wanted. All of the teachers and staff kept thanking me and raving about how wonderful he was. Such a simple gesture turned into a really special memory for the kids thanks to Kool Kat. Highly recommend!“

“good burger. clean. friendly. nobody annoyed me. that's a miracle“

“Always love going to Ralph’s. It’s my favorite dessert shop when I want something light. Been going here for over a decade. Glad it’s still around even after so long.

I usually get the strawberry, cotton candy, or recently the green apple flavor! The large is more than enough but medium is perfectly fine.“

“My favorite place in Kings Park! We try and get our ice cream with their black cherry topping as often as possible. It is a challenge since we live in NH.“

“I went with my kiddos, it's a place we always end up because their varities of flavors is incredible. We always get something new, we try to taste every flavor. Only thing is prices have been hiking up and I get it, it's everywhere.“

“My favorite ice cream on Long Island“

“Excellent ice cream as always but a little pricey Nothing is changed but the price“

“This is my husband and my spot by default. Staff is always friendly. What takes away from my perfect experience is the stale cones. After enjoying the ice cream part the cone leaves me saying I’m not coming back. I come back with the hopes I’d get a fresh one. They must find a way to keep the cones fresh.“

“I have been loving Colosseo pizza since jr High school. Thats over 40 plus years and somehow they have not drop a notch in greatness. In todays time, there are so many critics of pizza being so widely loved, but these guys are a Long Island staple.

Inside, its very clean and moves quick in all respects be take-out, by the slice or sit down in their back dining room. Nothing super fancy but your coming for their great pizza!“

“I love the vanilla ice cream sundae with hot fudge strawberries walnut whipped cream and cherry �“

“A very charming shop. In town for work and decided to go for a treat. Banana cream ice and peanut butter and jelly ice were the best I’ve had. I’m a stickler with banana flavored items and it is most definitely made with fresh bananas without any artificial flavors or colors. The owner was very pleasant and answered all of our questions. Highly recommend to anyone in town or passing through! Bring cash-it’s absolutely worth it!“

“I accidentally found this **GEM** by searching for chocolate covered strawberries. What a treat, with quality tasting chocolate and fresh strawberries! I also get the coffee (Dubai coffee….OMG), and boba tea. The vibe is totally adorable, Rose who works there is very knowledgeable and total sweetheart! A++++“

“I love kilwins fudge best ever“

“Very nice people and good food.“

“The staff seemed reluctant to understand who was paying and was surprised that I wanted to make an order for myself as well... Just very cold personalities like robots. Not friendly or inviting, more like they did not like us or looked at us like second rate citizens.There is no need to profile or judge anyone because of the way they dress or by what they drive. I had lots of cash, but do not look at me as if I do not belong.If this is the case, close your shop. I am a paying customer and deserve to be treated with Respect!“

“Went to the Northport location this morning. I had the Tex-Mex Benny Bowl. Loved it! Something different, our server Karen was outstanding. Attentive, without being annoying. Even had my favorite hot sauce, highly recommend.“

“my husband and I went there yesterday the food was amazing the staff was so respectful and friendly The Establishment was spotless we actually got to meet the owner Sylvie what a wonderful woman I recommend this place to everyone if you haven't seen it haven't been there go check it out you won't be disappointed“

“The best vegan ice cream❤️“

“My daughter and I have been coming to Ralph’s Italian Ice in Kings Park since they opened. They never fail to deliver the best ice cream in town. The staff here is always friendly, welcoming and on-the-go. Their ices and ice cream is always served fresh.Highly Recommended!“

“You guys made my dairy free soft serve dream cone true! Last time I visited we discovered your soft serve dairy free chocolate and vanilla menu addition! At that time I hinted how I would die and go to heaven if you ever added a dairy free peanut butter soft serve…much to be delight…today we visited and you did just that!!! Thank you thank you thank you! It was DELICIOUS!!! Fan for life with customer service like that!“

“Their soft serve ice cream!!! 😍“

“There’s nothing like a Ralph’s Italian ice to satisfy that craving. The problem is that there are too many flavors to choose from and they all are soooooo goood.“

“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!“

“Nothing is better than Ralph's cream ices!!! The variety of flavors is just overwhelming!!!“

“This is not the first time I have stopped for ice cream at this Carvel. I tried a strawberry thick shake and it was very good. I think the next time I'll have them add some strawberries to the shake. The person behind the counter was very nice. I'll be back for more.“

“Love this place. This best frozen yogurt and so many toppings even though I only take one. Kids will love it. It is very clean and every person who ever waited on me there has provided good service and had a positive attitude. Tuesday is buy one get one. Love the tart flavor and good old vanilla the best. There are many flavors to choose from.“

“Hands down best froyo around, I love this place and always come whenever I crave good quality froyo. The guy upfront is always friendly and I appreciate the fact that this place is ALWAYS clean. I’ve been here multiple times and not once has this place had a single napkin on the floor. Most people on here complain about the prices but are the same people who love 10-15 toppings in their cup at once lol be serious.“

“Mmmm... Chocolate.... Yum!“
