WHY DON'T THEY TAKE CARE OF THE SPIDERS? we make a trip annually to Little Compton. We hit aa beach and then Gray's. Its a part of my mother's childhood. SPIDERS just chillin on the ceiling abover ordering. I am not just talking Daddy long legs. I am talking large, with white bellies, SPIDERS! Fearfully they will fall on me as some are just dropping down. Basic flavors except... I have never seen butterscotch on a menu before so I did it! It was delicious. I just love butterscotch! 2 stars due to the overflowing garbage, SPIDERS, mosquitos and lack of seating (they have 2 tables in the dark) read more

I traveled all the way from the West Coast to move my daughter into her dorm room. We had been driving all over Rhode Island picking up items to make her dorm feel like home. Along the way, a very kind gentleman up the street, who had sold my daughter an item, highly recommended this ice cream place. He told us, "Go around the pond and you won't miss it." When we got there, I was in urgent need of a restroom. I recently had surgery and, as a cancer patient, I was experiencing extreme pain throughout my body. I hurried inside and asked the young girls at the front counter if I could use the restroom. They all immediately noticed the pain I was in, and one of them went to get an older woman from the back. When she came out, she saw the agony I was in. I explained my situation, but she responded in a dismissive tone, telling me to go outside and use the porta- john she kept repeating herself instead of allowing me to use their restroom., I ended up soiling myself. In that moment, I felt not only embarrassed and humiliated, but also discriminated against. It was clear from her reaction that people who look like me may not be welcomed there often. I still can't stop thinking about how painful and dehumanizing that experience was. All I needed was compassion and basic kindness, and instead I was made to feel small, unwanted, and ashamed. read more

Best homemade ice cream in the state. The Tiverton location has been around forever and I have fond memories of going here. The ice cream is tasty and you get good portions. A classic old fashioned ice cream shop. Love it. read more

Four generations of my family have enjoyed Gray's in Tiverton. Coffee Oreo is a great choice, but you can't really go wrong with any of their flavors. The kids working the windows are good kids. Really kind and attentive. read more

Hadn't been here in several years so we decided to go for a drive then stop in for some ice cream. My husband loves butter crunch but he said it had zero crunch. I had chocolate chip cookie dough. It was ok but I have to say what I disliked was the consistency of the actual ice cream base. It tasted too pasty. Sorry, I always enjoy leaving good reviews but this was our take on Grey's this season. read more

My husband and my stepdaughter wanted to try this place, so I decided to joined them . Very friendly staff offered us samples which was always gpod I had a kid size yogurt coffee which was great, not overly sweet and hints of coffee. my husband had a small size black raspberry which was enormous! my stepdaughter had peach. surprised to see bad reviews, they were awesome. read more

Let's be honest.... You're at a local tourist spot. The ice cream is always delicious, the servers are awesome, the line is long, and it is pricey. Find a treat that isn't. read more

went in for a coffee frappe with extra ice cream and extra syrup. the girl put CHOCOLATE syrup instead of coffee syrup disgusting ! read more

When we first moved to Rhode Island, we took a trip to Tiverton to get a lay of the land. We passed Gray's on a late fall day and remembered a recommendation from a local friend about them, and stopped in for some seasonal scoops. Our first trip, I had the rum raisin ice cream and was delighted with the strong flavor. Hubby had the pumpkin, which was perfect for the fall season, and was also very unapologetic in it's pumpkin spice-ness. We also tried some samples, I sampled the pudding ice cream which was eclectic, and hubby sampled the pistachio, which was pretty good. Once summer returned, so did we to Grey's. We went Memorial day weekend and the place was slammed. I opted for a chocolate malt, which was thick, smooth and perfectly malty, whereas hubby went for a fruit double scoop of blueberry and raspberry. I had never had a blueberry ice cream before, and I was hesitant, but it was truly the best fruit ice cream I've ever had. Prices are good for the quality of the product, and parking is plentiful and easy to access at Tiverton four corners. The stand is staffed by mostly high school students, which I love because it encourages entrepreneurial experience and work ethic training. Grey's is a must-see stop in Tiverton...you won't regret it! read more

Gray's Ice Cream - Incredible blueberry ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tiverton, Rhode Island

Delicious homemade ice cream, lots of flavors from the standard flavors to ginger, frozen pudding, grape nut, etc. They make shakes, malts, sundaes and banana splits too. I got a small pistachio and that was more like 3 normal sized scoops. You get big portions here, but the prices are a little high. I think 4.75 is a bit much for a small, but it was delicious! read more

Wonderful Ice Cream - Every time we go! The prices seem a little steep, that us until you see the size of the portions! They are very generous and worth every penny. I definitely recommend the flavors in the coffee genre, New England knows how to do coffee flavored things, and Gray's is New England through and through. We love to enjoy our ice cream at the covered picnic tables to the right of the entrance. We did use the port-a-potty during our last visit. It was shockingly clean. They've covered all the bases. read more

Ice cream is tacky and chewy, I put a piece in the sink I dropped and it melted down to a clue like substance. Establishment isn't very clean nor are they friendly by any means. A lot of handling money while still wearing the same gloves to hand you your ice cream. Only busy due to the location, I don't recommend. Take a drive to Helgers or scenic route to Woods Ice Cream. read more

Gray's Ice Cream is a long-time establishment located here in my hometown. I have been coming here since I was a little girl. I can remember back to when I was getting over a cold, or a stomach bug and my parent's asking me if there was anything that I wanted or craved, and I would always look at them and say "Gray's chocolate frappe", so Dad would get me in the car and take me for that shake!! lol (funny how you can remember all the little things in life). Coming here gives people an excuse to drive through our beautiful town, as it's located right in the heart of historic Tiverton Four Corners. Not only will you get some of the most creamy, flavorful homemade ice cream, you will also get to take in all the beautiful sites along the way! They have a pretty big list of homemade flavors including some of my favorites... Peppermint, Coconut, Peanut Butter, Mint Chip, Cookie Dough, Oreo, Blueberry, Butter Krunch, Cherry Vanilla, Maple Walnut, Ginger, Lemon, Strawberry Cheesecake and so many more!!! Be sure to try their Pumpkin & Eggnog Seasonal flavors when they are available too!! Fantastic Frappes, Waffle Cones and Sundaes too!! read more

Gray's Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tiverton, Rhode Island

A long established ice cream stand in Tiverton. They make the ice cream and the servings are large. They make every kind of ice cream beverage read more

When I review, I also take into consideration other places I have purchased the same thing and overall experience. Well, that, and I have had a TON of ice cream experience LOL Prices are maybe a tad higher than other places in the area, BUT cones actually have ice cream inside the cone (last place I went to in town didn't), flavors are good, ice cream is creamy, and waffle cones are FRESH. Service was very quick and overall the experience hit the spot. The only thing I'll note... the flavors are "older". So, for instance, old standbys like black raspberry, pistachio, chocolate, vanilla are on the menu, but of you are craving a cake batter, rocky road, or something similar - it isn't there. What they do have though is solid quality ice cream and service. :) We had the oreo and black raspberry. Black raspberry seems to be a fan favorite- and for good reason. Oreo was good, but not especially creamy. Just not a huge fan, but still good. We will be back again after enjoying a hike in the area I'm sure. read more

Gray's Ice Cream - Black raspberry in waffle cone - a couple bites already in! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tiverton, Rhode Island

This place is fine in the summer but skip it in the winter. Their ice cream is old and becomes a very strange texture. It's gummy and stringy and stretches so that it wraps around your spoon like spaghetti. I just bought a pint for $8 and brought it home to find out it's inedible. read more

This is the place that I cheat on my diet. Their Ice cream is so good. Butter Krunch is my favorite. They have a huge selection. They also have a big parking lot and a few picnic "huts" read more

Gray's Ice Cream - Butter Krunch in a waffle cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tiverton, Rhode Island

I went to RI with a friend and her family LOVES Gray's. They purchased multiple pints to enjoy over the week including: Ginger, Coffee Chip, Black Raspberry, and Chocolate Walnut. As a lactose free person, I was a bit apprehensive to try, but after my first bite, I saw the hype. my personal favorite was ginger - uncommon ice cream flavor but don't knock it till you try it. read more

Great local spot! There was always a line here after coming home from dinner but the line moves quickly and plenty of room to space out. The ice cream I had here was delicious and you get so much! My small looked like a large and for the price it was such a good deal. read more

Gray's Ice Cream - a hand holding an ice cream cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tiverton, Rhode Island

I'm sure that many local ice cream shops are the "best" in the area. We have been lucky enough to try several. There are many factors that go into this. Great fresh ice cream, rich and creamy with excellent quality addictions like chocolate chunks or chips, nuts, or fruits. Gray's is the best east bay ice cream spot we have found and we are lucky to spend time nearby every year. I am actually surprised that it only has a 3.5 rating here in yelp. We love Gray's and look forward to our regular summertime visits. In 2020 they have implemented all the proper COVID controls. The staff are all very good for ice cream servers. They get the order done right and quickly and can make the proper change. I don't expect a lot more from them. Gray's is worth a visit. It is a great place to take the kids. read more

I came across Gray's online while searching for some places to visit in Rhode Island. My dad and I were staying about 35 minutes from the ice cream shop and decided to make the drive to try it out. There are a variety of ice cream flavors and you can sample before you order. My dad got blueberry and I got coffee chip and butter pecan. It was good, but honestly can't say that it was something special and out of the ordinary. We sat in the car as we ate the ice cream. It was chilly out and there is no indoor seating. They do sell ice cream in containers to buy to take home as well as some items you can find in a typical grocery store. Yelp says they are open until 9 PM but the sign on the front door stated that they are open until 7 PM. read more

Located at Tiverton four corners. Homemade ice cream. Best coffee cabinet in Rhode Island. They take credit cards now. They also have a location in Bristol, RI. read more

Great oreo and coffee chip flavors.

absolutely the worst ice cream place to exist they don't have soft serve and on top of that they DO NOT KNOW HOW TO LOAD A CONE they over loaded my cone to the point it just collapsed after on tiny lick and my hands were drenched simply the fact the workers have no clue what they are doing what a waste of a over priced ice cream then i get a "well that's ur problem" nice never going there again nor do i recommend people to go there read more

So this was my first time here I just accidentally happened upon it I got myself a large double scoop waffle cone ice cream with chocolate walnut and butter crunch the service is amazing the food is great and there are many places to sit in the shade while enjoying your reasonably priced dessert will totally be back read more

Grays was a childhood favorite so we thought we would revisit on a Friday night. It was during Covid conditions so you have to call ahead with your order. So I ordered a small blueberry with hot sauce and nuts. Well the ice cream quality was as I remember very good. However to pay .75 for less then a tsp of nuts and the hot sauce didn't even reach the bottom of the cup was a disgrace. So basically $6 for one scoop of ice cream with a hint of sauce was very disappointing. Grays you need to be a bit more generous with your servings!! read more

everyone is super nice and the ice cream is awesome! really recommend the waffle cones

Went as an adult for the first time after going several times as a kid. Teens served us at the window. Asked for two pints, one mint chocolate chip and one chocolate banana (the special). We were told the mint chip was too hard to pack in a pint (??) and they said the banana might be too hard as well. Had to pick another flavor after they didn't even try (ice cream should never be too hard to package into a pint, like cmon) and settled on mocha chip. $14 for two pints and the chocolate banana only tasted like banana and the mocha chip tastes like nothing. Please go to Somerset Creamery before here. read more

We live right down the street and get ice cream way too much for my diet. But it's always worth it and hard to say no to.

Classic winter scream Grey's Ice Cream has been sitting on this corner at the Four Corners of Tiverton forever. Or at least a large portion of forever. Definitely a classic New England Ice cream place, you can even go and look at the cows that the ice cream comes from. Just watch out for all the manure. A simple place without any fluff. Just really, really good ice cream and not much else. But of course with ice cream that good you don't need much else. Lots of different flavors and they are all made right there at the dairy. The portions are huge and the prices aren't really bad all things considered. Most ice cream shops around RI close in the winter but Grey's is open all year long so you can get your ice cream fix in the coldest and nastiest weather. A New England classic that will probably be sitting on this corner for a long, long time to come. read more

A perfect spot to end a great day at the beach! All ice cream is made in house and large flavor selection You can get pistachio 3 ways, with nuts, without nuts or with chocolate chips. Very popular spot. I had pistachio with nuts, my better half had maple Walnut frozen yogurt. Yum! We will return read more

Gray's Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tiverton, Rhode Island

The size of the ice cream servings are huge !!! I asked for Grape Nut on a sugar cone and it was very good. I wanted to get a sherbet, but they were not available yet for the season. I also wanted to know if they had something smaller than the Small Cone for $4. ...Like a kiddie cone..... The answer was no. Good tasting ice cream.... read more

Disappointing to say the least. It started with the service, the young girl who took the order was unfriendly, rude and hurried. She seemed annoyed when I asked a couple of questions regarding the choices, then coldly stated the price, which was outrageous considering the portion, taste and presentation (the fudge sauce was all over the outside of the container,) then curtly passed us on to the pickup window. The server there made no attempt to be nice or polite. When I had to ask for napkins, he silently grabbed the holder and plopped in front of us. Two one-scoop sundaes for $15? No thank you. We won't be back. Too many other good ice cream shops with consistently much better friendly service...Somerset Creamery, Inside Scoop, The Vanilla Bean to name a few. That's the last time I will go to Gray's. read more

This place has the best ice cream! Large parking lot to keep everyone with distance and an orderly made line. Quick ordering and picking up. I say, it's a great quick spot to get a really nice big serving of your favorite flavor of ice cream! read more

Gray's is a classic! You know, the real dairy that churns your stomach?!!? I'm not sure if it is as good as it was when I was a little kid but it is definitely a nice stopping point on a hot summer day, or sunny autumn day, or unseasonably warm early spring day --- well, it is good any day you need an ice cream treat. They have the basic flavors, plus a few old timey flavors like rum raisin, and butter pecan. I wish they jazzed it up a little and tried some newer, even experimental flavors! read more

Gray's Ice Cream - Menu - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tiverton, Rhode Island

Blueberry and Peach Brandy were both great. There were actually pieces of blueberry which was nice, but not too many. The Peach Brandy just tasted like peach; it's a shame there was no brandy haha. A pretty long line but worth the wait. A little high price wise, but these folks do not skimp on the scoops! Huge portions, convenient location, and a great tasting product. Well done. read more

True, creamy, homemade ice cream! They also offered two vegan (non-dairy flavors). The portions were generous for the cost. We went multiple times during our stay in the area. read more

This used to be the only ice cream place that I would dream about growing up. Like everything else, it seems like it has changed, and not for the better. The cherry vanilla is not vanilla anymore with the dark cherries. It is a pink looking ice cream with regular Sundae cherries in it. Waffle bowls were just mediocre at best. As an FYI you may want to make sure that you hit a restroom before attempting the Porta potty's there as they were unfit to use. read more

The ice cream here is very very good. The location is great. Perfect for a drive on a nice day, or a stop after the beach. However, I must agree with some other reviews on here regarding service. The last two times I've been the staff could not care less about providing a good service. It really is as if you're bothering them. A line will get backed up and they'll be multiple people inside standing around talking and one window taking an order. They're also still going pretty hard in the paint with covid precautions. They're not logical at this point. Especially considering the whole process is outdoors. It could be that the local elites like that type of virtue signaling. I'm not really sure. read more
