Rude staff member and over priced.

I was made to feel as if I did not exist by a member of staff while he spoke to my partner. The ice creams were seriously over priced.

Mango is the best

Two vegan flavors, raspberry which was very good, and mango which was to die for. Very friendly staff. A bit pricy though.

Very good ice cream but a little pricey

Very good ice cream and friendly service, but a little pricey. Servers are friendly and offer tastes of ice cream while you wait.

On tour with stop over in Dingle. Ireland

Lovely staff. Wonderful selection of gourmet ice creams and sorbets. I had the gin ice cream with raspberry sorbet. By chance. We met Mr. Murphy in front of store. Fun facts shared.

Premium ice-cream at a premium exorbitant price

Flavours available: lemon curd, peanut butter, Irish brown bread, Dingle gin, raspberry, mango, honeycomb caramel, chocolate whiskey, butterscotch, smooth chocolate, Kieran's cookies & sea salt. Tastes offered to hook you. Cost: €6 for 2 small scoops, €7.50 for 2 medium scoops or €9 for 3...large scoops. Choice of tub or cone. We tried lemon curd, raspberry, mango and honeycomb caramel. Super strong flavours especially the raspberry and mango. Premium quality ice-cream at an exorbitant premium price. A once off treat, we wouldn't be rushing back.More

Disappointed

Not as advertised. No sundaes or hot drinks. Basically you can ignore the pictures. This is just a regular fast food icecream shop. Nothing special

Definitely worth a visit or two or three!

The ice cream/sorbet is on the expensive side, but definitely worth a visit (or 2 or 3 :)! The Dingle Gin, Peanut Butter, and Raspberry sorbet really stood out as our family favorites!

Further to my recent review you can see many people asking why your ice cream is so expensive in Dingle? It’s high quality but really overpriced which is very off putting for regular visitors to Dingle like me. Perhaps you don’t care about locals and only a once off killing on tourists?

To be fair a loyalty card is a bit silly just lower the price close the second shop at 100 m from the first one and keep your price at human level i dont think the ingredients used are very expensive when you eat an icecream... More

Murphy's might translate well in a larger urban Irish community such as Boston or NYC. West coast not so much. It's fine ice-cream, but there are many exceptional ice cream shops locally.

Hi John, does the ice cream get cheaper if you buy more at once?

10 April 2017|

Answer

Hi, Fred. Afraid not, although a larger size is relatively cheaper - i.e. a large has more ice cream for the price - so maybe get a larger size and share? Best, K
