"Ray’s Candy Store offers soft serve support 24/7. This classic, cash-only spot off Tompkins Square Park has walls covered with newspaper articles and pictures of everything you can order, from ice cream served in a coffee cup to fried Oreos. Ray himself, who's owned the place since the 1970s, will likely be there when you stop by, so make sure to wave hello. We recommend sticking with chocolate, vanilla, or swirl." - hannah albertine, willa moore, arden shore, molly fitzpatrick
