No kidding! Really great ice creams! The pistachio is outstanding! The flavor is rich and it has REAL pistachio for every bite! Not pieces but whole pistachios! The other flavors I got are cherry and salted caramel! Both are wonderful as well. Flavorful but not artificial. The cookie and cream shake was lovely too! Just so happy that we went this place in a hot day for the city visit.
Best chocolate malt I've had in decades! Reminds mr of the old fashioned malts my great grandmother made me when I was a kid! Booths were romantic. The diner is cozy and fun like the 50's style diners depicted in the movies. Parking was a challenge. We like this place for our lazy fun Sundays !
The cookies and creak ice cream is good. We had 5 people with us so it a little bit since there were only 2 people working.
It was fun sharing Mary Coyle ice cream with my grandchildren. We all enjoyed the ice cream and the friendly staff. We will go back again soon ??
I havent been to Mary Coyles for a number of years... and I was sad to see that they've moved locations and slashed the menu no longer doing any sandwiches or salads... HOWEVER.... the ice cream parlor still smells HEAVENLY.... my dad used to take me to work with him... and he worked for nestle and repaired and commissioned new equipment for ice cream plants and creameries all over the world from Australia to Israel and all over Europe. Most of his accounts were in south eastern United States... And I was the luckiest kid when he took me to work. And a fatty!! Mary Coyles has that turn of the century, genuine old fashioned original way of making delectable flavors from all natural ingredients. Milk, cream, sugar.... and you can smell the how genuinely old fashioned and authentic their little creamery is as soon as you walk thru their doors!! It smells so good you wouldn't be surprised if the Willy Wonka of ice cream was there to greet you. I got one scoop of cotton candy ice cream for myself and another scoop for my 1 and 3 yr old daughters to share.... their cotton candy ice cream is a blend of bubble gun ice cream and blue raspberry. It was spectacular. It's a long drive for me to go... but that drive time only increases your anticipation with every mile closer you go... I can't wait to go back!! Thank you Mary Coyles for keeping up the turn of the century ice cream standards so the rest of the world can have a baseline to measure what real ice cream is supposed to taste like. Your shop and history are a Treasure for the Phoenician people to enjoy! PLEASE NEVER CLOSE!!!
I came here because I was craving a malt and based on the rave reviews and the fact that it's an ice cream parlor, I figured the malts would be phenomenal. The first thing I noticed was how expensive the shakes were... I'm not usually one to fork over $6.50 for a 20oz shake, but I was seriously convinced that it would be well worth it. Since I learn (to much disappointment) that they don't have peanut butter malts, I opt for peanut butter & chocolate (???) instead. The result was.... disappointing to say the least. I didn't taste any malt whatsoever, to the point where I questioned if malt was added at all. There didn't seem to be a whole lot of flavor to it at all, yet I still sucked up gobs of peanut butter through my straw. All in all, the shake was "ok", but definitely not something I'd write home about either.
Damian the person that waited on us was awesome!!! He made our experience there so warm and welcoming! We will definitely be back! The icecream was terrific, too! Cindy an other worker there was very friendly, too! We need more people like them in this world!
Took a walk down memory lane for a AZ classic on ice cream. The Carmel Cashew did not disappoint!
Yum! Sundaes were awesome. Iconic place to enjoy a sundae!
The ice cream was good, although it was drowning in hot fudge in caramel so it melted quickly. this was my first visit to the new location. The employees were awful, very loud and obnoxious yelling loudly at one another and swearing quite a bit, definitely not appropriate for a work environment.
