This place is open late in Hell's kitchen, which is super nice and it's one of the only dessert spots in the area other than insomnia cookies or if you want to just stop at a bodega and get something generic. The donuts by themselves are very flavorful and soft so sometimes I will stop in and get them by themselves but the best part is getting them as an ice cream sandwich. The only issue that I have a little bit, is that one of the workers who is typically there during the night shift seems like he has always annoyed or that he has a little time for a patrons. Other than that.. it's bomb. read more

Great ice cream. Great donuts. I know the service here gets a lot of flack, but living in the neighborhood you kinda just roll with the punches you get at Holey Cream. To me, it's not that deep and I enjoy my time. At the end of the day, I've never waited more than 5 minutes to get served. Like hello? How am I going to be pressed when I'm about to eat some ice cream? PS: if you get the donut ice cream sandwich, make sure you're sharing with others because it's a mission trying to take care of it on your own There's seating outside in a form of a bench, but that's about it. read more

Something out of a fever dream, we went to Holey Cream after a Broadway show looking for a late night treat. When we arrived they had a very limited inventory, although that's understandable given the time at night. The more concerning thing was that upon entering we were not greeted by the worker who watched us come in and who we made eye contact with, who was also watching video on her phone in the back while she saw us come in at that. Also, she had a baby with her on her back in a baby backpack, which while we understand the need to take care of your child, we cannot see how that is a good idea when working around open food. After standing there for 30 seconds she came up to us and said "are you ready to order?" and we quickly got our oreo donut and left. The donut was okay, not great but not bad, certainly would've been better if not left out in the open all day, assuming it was freshly made that day. This is probably an outlier experience but it's what we experienced so if you want to test your luck go ahead, we just won't again. read more

Five star food. 2 to 3 star service. This place is amazing. I've been to another location in the city. The combination of a hot donut mixed with delectable smooth ice cream that's cold. Is such a nice combo. The price is a little steep you pay about $12-$13 for one of these donut sandwiches. But the flavor is amazing. Moose tracks is a phenomenal ice cream flavor. Service was pretty disorderly. They were scrambling. Their Money machine wasn't working. They didn't ask me what flavor I wanted for my doughnut so I just got what they gave me. read more

We came here for a snack after dinner! There was no line and my friend recommended this place as she has been here before. The small vanilla ice cream was good and not too sweet. There is minimal seating and it is a no frills place. My friend recommends the matcha flavor ice cream here too. read more

Great doughnuts and ice cream. Although, the service was horrendous! The lights would be on, food in the window, but nobody inside. The day before my birthday party, we asked the head of the place if they would be open the next day. They said yes very coldly and when we went, no one was inside. Do not recommend! read more

Good flavors but bad service. I wish they could get more reliable service and hours. Disappointing.

Service was super friendly and there are over 40 ice cream flavors to choose from. You can sample flavors in order to help you choose - they have a few varieties of oreo ice cream (include coffee oreo) The donuts are baked at a separate location - there's display donuts available but none in your immediate view to see how fresh they are. The display donuts obvs aren't the freshest looking. You can however get a donut ice cream sandwich, which is probably their unique item to come here for. Ice cream was just fine - very standard and nothing to write home about. The flavors tried were oreo and holey moley (bunch of candy bits interspersed into the ice cream). If you're looking to scratch an ice cream itch this place does the trick. Not my personal fave ice cream place by far, but is open pretty late which is a nice touch. read more

After seeing a show with my family, we were craving something sweet as strolled back to our hotel. A quick Yelp search turned up Holey Cream a few blocks away so we made our way over there. Small, brightly lit shop. A few seats inside. It was night, so it wasn't crowded - only one other person in there with us. I guess their "thing" is a donut sandwich. We weren't that hungry, so we just went for some ice cream. We tried the s'more, holey moley and moose tracks flavors. All were tasty. A bit on the pricey side for a late night snack, but it's NYC so I wasn't surprised. read more

Bad food,service, and ambiance. Ice cream and donuts taste horrible. It's overpriced and such a small place. Don't go here.

They have a good selection of ice cream & I had a hard time deciding between a few of the flavors. Ended up going with the midnight Oreo and Java flavor. Both were delicious and they served generous scoops. Highly recommend their ice cream, did not get a chance to try out their donut options Not much of a sit down place, great if you want to grab some dessert and go read more

Holey cream, holey cow!! If you are purely looking for a tasty dessert and can afford some extra sugar in your diet, then this place is perfect for you. Their ice cream donut sandwiches are their specialty, so I had to try one. I got the the Maine blueberry ice cream sandwiched between two halves of a donut with M&Ms, strawberry frosting, and chocolate sauce (made to order). It was every bit as tasty as it sounds. I thought it was just going to be one scoop of ice cream spread around the donut, but I was wrong - they gave 4 whole scoops of ice cream! The ice cream was so creamy and delicious with actual blueberries in it. The donut was top notch as well. Oh, and this giant ice cream sandwich was only $9! The place itself is quite small with a few chairs inside and outside. The lady who served us was friendly and the service speed was fast. The line also wasn't bad at all for a Friday night. Overall, you really can't ask for anything more than this from an ice cream spot: delicious ice cream with a unique product and great value. Come by and you will surely leave happy - just don't tell your dietician. read more

The frozen yogurt is great, but the portions are a total ripoff. Have ordered quarts and pints hand packed on 3 occasions. 3 strikes. An $18 quart will be packed about half full. So, we end up paying $18 for a pint. And the pint will be less than a medium cup. This is very unfortunate, as they have some of the best frozen yogurt around. read more

Craving something sweet after a late lunch and stumbled across this cute spot in Hell's Kitchen! This is such a cute place with a couple of chairs inside (no tables) and a few more outside to people watch. If you're unsure of what sweet treat you want they offer ice cream, donuts, smoothies, and cupcakes. It was 90 degrees today so I opted for a cookies and cream milkshake. Yes, I asked for us milkshake connoisseurs...II want it to be so thick that the first sip is a struggle through the straw AND she delivered (I thought I was going to have to get another straw LOL)! I will definitely come back to try a cupcake! read more

I love that everyone was offered samples to taste before making your final decision. The staff was very friendly and welcoming and patient to everybody who came in. I got some ice cream during a festival and there were so many tourists sitting in the restaurant and the ice cream server remained calm. I will definitely will come back to try the other flavors. I loved my red velvet cupcakes ice cream. It was so creamy, and I enjoyed the crunch of the sprinkles on the cone read more

Got a small ice cream (two scoops) and four donuts. There are many donuts to choose from and the price point is fair ($9.50 for four - excluding tax and tip). A small ice cream is on the pricier side but is two scoops ($5.75 excluding tax and tip). Good local ice cream and donut shop but nothing too special.

This place has gone downhill I ordered a sundae, all the items in the sundae were incorrect. I asked for fudge I gave an entire cup filled with chocolate hard shell. I received m&m's and peanut butter cup which I did not want. I asked for peanut butter topping and had non in there. There was hardly any ice cream and it was melted. I called for a refund they said they couldn't do it on their end. The staff is rude, unclean and they seem to be incapable of reading. They also are suppose to be open till 1:30am yet when I called at 12:00 to tell them the order was wrong they said they were closing now. They close the shop early because the staff are lazy and high. read more

I get why this place has three stars. Very average ice cream. $7.50 for a small waffle cone with two flavors. This was a pretty good price for the amount, especially in New York. There are a ton of flavors but I have a feeling they're all pretty average. I got salted caramel pretzel which wasn't salty at all. I also got holey moley which was good. I might come back and try other flavors since it's a good amount of ice cream for $7. Maybe the ones I got just weren't the best. There was a line but we got through it pretty quick. The servers were nice. read more

I moved to the neighborhood this year and have started to frequent this spot for the donuts - they are incredible! Each one is so pretty to look at and absolutely delicious to eat! The staff is always friendly and happy to greet me. I usually go in the evenings for a post-work treat. I don't usually hang out inside, but the shop is cute enough. It reminds me a little bit of Donut Pub downtown, except they sell a lot of other things too. If you're in the neighborhood - especially in the evening - give this place a try! read more

We ordered from Uber Eats buy 1 get 1 and the store only sent one and didn't send the second one. This is the 2nd time it's happened from here. I tried calling and goes straight to voicemail.

AMAZING!!!!! Good affordable ice cream with friendly staff that don't mind giving you samples. Went for dessert and they were the ONLY ice cream shop that I've found so far that has my favorite......raspberry truffle. It was absolutely delicious. Two scoops in a cup was only $6.50 (or something like that) and the scoops were not small. They offer more than they regular flavors and even have different donuts that you could make an ice cream sandwich which. Be prepared to take it to go as they do have a small (1 or 2 people) sitting area outside of the restaurant. I didn't mind walking with mine because I was finished by the time I reached the corner lol. I will DEFINITELY keep them in mind whenever I'm in the area. read more

Very friendly service! They have a lot of ice cream options, was admittedly a bit overwhelmed when it came time to make a decision. The ice cream was honestly just OK. Their donuts don't look made in house? But perhaps that's not the point of this establishment. Conveniently it's opened quite late. read more

I've always thought I had a sweet tooth, but after Holey Cream, I'm rethinking it. If you love sweet treats on top of sweet treats, then this is the place for you! I don't know if I'm a grandma now or what, but the sweetness of both the ice cream and donut in the ice cream-donut sandwich that we got was way too overwhelming. I'm surprised I even ate half of it. It was the sweetest salted caramel ice cream that I have ever tried! The vanilla glazed donut with sprinkles was okay. I hate to say it, but I think I prefer the donuts from Krispy Kreme over this. While I do love desserts, I think I prefer a more subdued sweetness or at least other flavors (like a stronger saltiness in the salted caramel) to balance it out. With all of the possible flavors out there for both donuts and ice cream, the ones offered here seem pretty basic. This also makes the $8.75 price point for an ice cream/donut sandwich seem steep. $5.25 for the smallest size of ice cream is crazy too, and it's only upwards in price from there. I know it's New York, but it still seems wild to me. While I found Holey Cream disappointing, I hope that those who love being surrounded by sweetness come here because I'm sure they would enjoy it! read more

"''Twas a Late night cruise in the city and a growl from the deep recesses of my stomach bellowed for...... an ice cream milkshake" When the belly speaketh, you must feed it! It's an ice cream shop search at 1230AM in Midtown (AFTER'S, why aren't you on the east coast ?!) and the Yelp elves search party gave me HOLEY CREAM *loud booming echoey voice...okay I get it, the holey was not a revelation from the gods :-\ . But I called to confirm if they were open and for an establishment to answer with an unexpected pleasant voice , not only confirming that they were open, but were inviting me to come and not miss out. I was probably hallucinating. When I arrived , there was a party prior to my arrival being tended to so I patiently observed their process. Yes I was greeted upon arrival. Already 2 stars for open late and the courtesy response. The doughnut display (see picture) looked enticing but I was on a milkshake mission. A patron was being served and they ordered a fruit loops doughnut. The server took a blank slate of a doughnut, dipped it in this amazing warm glaze, which did remind me of the KRISPY KREME curtain glaze, and then proceeded to add the cereal toppings (2 more stars for the idea coming to fruition and the process.) The server proceeded to accompany the dressed up doughnut with 2 scoops of ice cream. I was amazed at the amount of sweetness and shocked. Now people, we all know that this is an establishment that focuses on sugar, so as with everything else in life, choose your menu items responsibly. Don't blame the establishment. It's a DOUGHNUT and ICE-CREAM SHOP for God's sake! And being that we are all adults, we're responsible for our decisions. When It was my turn, I was allowed to taste a few of their flavors , and get this, my server was pleasant, patient and polite about it. I was convinced I was in Canada. To make a long story more long I went with my go to combo, a cookies and cream with a tart flavor, except the strawberry was coupled with a cheesecake so the tart was blunted by the cheese. I went with the next possibly tart flavor and that was the blueberry. Rolled the dice on this combo. Blueberry with cookies and cream, yup, probably the first on this combo but I'll tell ya, even if it tasted like plain milk, I'll take it because who gives that sort of customer service at 1245am in NYC ? The verdict? One star for the execution and great taste. And that, my fellow humans, is how they earned their 5 stars. The gentleman with the glasses who helped me, may your fortune always be as pleasant as your customer service that day. read more

Through the window, it appears like appealing option for ice cream. This was the and last time for me. My child was interested in something chocolate. They have a variety of flavors but they all seemed a little too intense for his craving. Ultimately I chose the Swiss chocolate flavor for a shake. The price was the most for the least at more than $8. The shake was the color of chocolate but the flavor was water with a dash of milk... yuck! I've never experienced all liquid and no ice cream in a shake... it was almost the consistency of juice... I should've walked up the street for a frosty never again! read more

A fantastic place to visit if you've been saving up your cheat days for a couple of years and want to cash them all in at once. This place had been on my radar for a while, I was able to resist the temptation but finally gave in this past weekend. I was conflicted between the peanut butter chunk and birthday cake ice cream, but went with the pb as the donut add ons had more options that paired well with it. I added Nutella frosting, Heath bar pieces, Oreo crumbles and peanut butter sauce to the donut. As one would hope for an 8$ ice cream sandwich, the portion size was generous to say the least. It ended up being more like a sundae; I can't imagine anyone actually picking this up and eating it like a sandwich without needing a shower afterwards. It was as decadent and delicious as it looks, the number of ice cream flavors and donut toppings available should be plenty to fit any taste you're feeling. I'd love to say I'll go back but I'm not sure the human body can handle this experience more than once read more

To summarize: huge portions & sweetness overload. They have a variety of flavors when it comes to ice cream. They specialize in this donut ice cream sandwich. It's huge. Their shop is tiny and there's only about 1-2 tables for you to sit at. Which is crazy because ice cream melts! So hopefully when you get in, there's a seat available. I arrived on a Saturday night around 8PM and it wasn't busy. However, they had a few customers coming in and out steadily. Due to the height of the ice cream sandwich we ordered, we could only break it up into bite size pieces with a fork. Still kept my kid happy. It's unique. read more

Promised the kids a treat here on a recent trip to NYC, they were pleased. The store is small with only a few chairs and no tables; outside a few more seats but under a dripping ac unit so not ideal, lil hard on a hot day to not sit and eat this creation bc it is melting rapidly. Attendant was efficient. Both my older kids opted for the donut ice cream sandwich, I couldn't be that gluttonous but tasted it and omg. One got the pink sprinkles donut with Cookie Monster ice cream and loved it. The other opted for the dark cookies n cream ice cream on a m & m donut, also loved it. One ate with his hands and made little mess, the other with a spoon and it was everywhere. Both were very satisfied. My little opted for just a sprinkled donut bc he doesn't like ice cream and he scarfed it down quickly. The sign implies you can order more toppings but that wasn't offered which was fine as the delicious diabetes biscuit was already chocked full of sweetness. An everyday snack? No. A vacation or special occasion treat worth remembering? Heck yes! read more
