The store was clean and had so many different options. I took my time and ordered something for everyone in my family.

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.

“We have been going to this hometown location since it was a little wooden shack . My kids grew up going to Ralph’s , now they have kids . So now 5 generations of my family have loved Ralph’s Italian Ice Farmingville 🇮🇹🍧“

“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!“

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

“Ice cream seems to be fresh all the time. The ice cream sandwiches are filled.Some of the carvels don't fill them all the way.. The Carvel on portion road have icicles in theirs. Also , the people that run the carvel on middle country road , are very friendly.“

“UnMAtched Soft Serve“

“We love Cosmos! Their food is great, ice cream is amazing and the staff are all so nice! We’ve even had a birthday party there and the kids had such a good time. :)“

“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.“

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

“My favorite ice cream on Long Island“

“Great place for Ice treats“

“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!!“

“Mmmm... Chocolate.... Yum!“

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

“We love Tina's ! Harley loves Tina's too 🥰! they have so many different flavors I've tried about 10 different ones so far and each one is delicious! The staff is so nice I can't say enough good things about them! Thank you Tina's staff for being super 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 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!“

“Went in looking for a slice of a particular pizza, which they were currently out of. Was going to walk out but asked if I had a moment. To which I said yes. They made the pizza on the spot and it was the best tasting. You have a new customer. Great service. Friendly atmosphere.“

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

“Their soft serve ice cream!!! 😍“

“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.“

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

“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 !!“

“The best vegan ice cream❤️“

“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!“

“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.“

“What an amazing experience dealing with Michelle to customize my daughters birthday cake. The patience this women had between my 10yr old ideas and placement on everything was amazing! Thank you for making this an easy step for me.
I will update review when I pick up my cake“

“First time back after 32 years! During my childhood was the place to be for soft ice cream, BIRTHDAY ICE CREAM CAKES!!!, and the chocolate ice cream sandwich’s!!! Owner was very nice and store was very clean. Will definitely be back a lot sooner. Thank you for bringing back the memories!!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Omggg By Far the BEST BEST service I've ever had they are always coming out asking if everything and everyone is okay and always providing refills and asking if we would like to try there dessert for that day“

“So So So yummy! Just stopped by with our girls and one of our daughter’s friends and this hit the spot (a little before dinner treat 😉) for us all!! Between the 7 of us, we got lots of different flavors and every single one was delicious. Not only is this place so sweet, adorable and quaint, the two girls working were so so kind and accommodating. I know for sure this will be one of our favorite places to come for a sweet & yummy treat throughout the summer!! 😋☀️“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“I love kilwins fudge best ever“

“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!“

“Everything I’ve tried here has been amazing! They even make their own ice cream, which you definitely need to try. The staff are super friendly, and the owners are right there running the place themselves. It’s a true family business and honestly just perfect.“

“We love their delicious and healthy acai bowls!“

“I just need to inform everyone that the Mediterranean wrap is absolute crack. The sauce that it comes it is amazing, the wrap is amazing and decently sized and priced. I didn’t even know that this place existed and I drove past all my way to work deciding that I would try it. I’m so happy I did and got the Mediterranean wrap because it truly was so so good. I highly recommend.“

“My daughter, granddaughter and I went there for an early dinner. Our server Joanne and the food made our experience really nice. Thank you very much.“
