What People Are Saying About Murray's Ice Creams & Cookies

The Scene – The menu covers much of the wall behind the ice cream counter, so allow extra time to decide. Friendly and courteous young people--or maybe even the owner--will take your order. A few tables are inside, with a few more outside to accommodate the overflow. Expect a crowd on warmer nights. A coffee bar beside the ice cream counter serves espresso, cappuccino and coffee. – – The Food – Sixteen flavors of ice cream are available at any one time out of more than 200 total recipes, from customary vanilla bean to the sublime fudge raspberry rhapsody.

I have been going to Murray's since i couldn't see above the counter and in all my years of ice cream connoisseur-ing I have yet to find a place with the quality and consistent goodness of Murray's. Their flavors are always fresh and innovative and I have yet to have a disappointing experience. Cowbear is clearly a genius, he summed up the chocolate flake fromage perfectly. It may sound bizarre but cream cheese, ice cream, and delicate chocolate flakes compliment each other perfectly at Murray's. So please, stop wasting your time reading review this and go get your own scoop of heaven.
- Pros: best ice cream on the planet
- Cons: closes at 10:30 sharp

This is the best ice cream i have ever had by far. I make my own homemade ice cream that is delicious, but i can never come close to Murray's. The homemade cookies are also good, but the real treat is the ice cream. My favorite is the Chocolate Flake Fromage because it is very creamy and has a very unique tangyness. Every ice cream is held up to the highest standard of Murray herself making each creative ice cream consistently great. My friends and i frequent this shop at least twice a week and we would go more often but it does close at night and on mondays and tuesdays.
- Pros: most delicious ice cream, Chocolate Flake Fromage!
- Cons: is not open 24/7

The ice cream is FANTASTIC....literally the best I've ever had. That's why the lines are so long. Yes, it's expensive but it's specialty. Please please please go to Dairy Queen to get your scoops.
And PLEASE know that the customer is NOT always right. I just cringe when I hear a customer say that at an establishment. You're not right - you're cheap and really you would be better served somewhere else.
- Pros: The best most original ice cream any where!
- Cons: they close for the winter so I have to get a stash.
