Skip here and get ice cream/taffy elsewhere. I've been to OC twice this summer and both times the staff were rude and unfriendly. Do they not realize if it wasn't for tourists they wouldn't have a job or business? Do better! read more

Absolutely delicious! The ice cream was so good that we went back for seconds. Every flavor we tried was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. They have so many yummy options to choose from that it was hard to decide. The staff was friendly, and the whole experience was great. We can't wait to come back on our next trip to Ocean Shores! read more

Awful experience, the store is boring and sparsely decorated, the taffy is overpriced garbage, and the ice cream might genuinely be the worst thing I have tasted this year. The ice cream tastes so artificial and watered down, it's practically glowing a radioactive green for the mint flavor. There was a couple AI generated posters and I think that this place tastes how AI would make ice cream. TL;DR Overpriced, Disgusting, Low Quality read more

Yeah the ice cream was not good. I think they might have used baking coco for the chocolate which made it super bitter (Dutch chocolate should be used). And it also tasted chemical. Like it was made with sugar free sweeteners or something. Very odd tasting ice cream. read more

We stopped in for a scoop of pistachio and scoop of rocky road. The pistachio was a very weak, chemical, colored wrong, unnatural glob of coldness. How can anyone screw up rocky road, well they figured out how, tasted like I was eating a scoop of someone's chemistry project on a cone. RFK needs to close this place down immediately. A Japanese robot has more personality than this whole place put together. Typical place that preys on tourists and not repeat business for obvious reasons. read more

Very clean. Lots of fun salt water taffy and some old school candy selections. Yummy Ice cream - lots of flavor variety. Staff was friendly. read more

customer service was none existent. the employee didn't greet us or talk outside of telling us the amount to pay, the building has damage throughout that just doesn't give a clean feeling. the ice cream was alright. i gave two stars because the cone was DELICIOUS! like literally the best i've had! read more

Went here while I was in town for my anniversary. I was craving ice cream and this was the closest option. The directions on where to order were a tad bit confusing and unclear. Once I figured that out, I stood in line and waited my turn. They had areas marked on where to stand, yet the person behind me felt it was simply a suggestion and stood an arms length from me. Maybe they really needed their ice cream fix, who knows. Once it was my turn, I asked the counter person if the coffee flavor was gluten free, to be on the safe side. I figured it was, but didn't really want to risk it. He had zero clue, and even the other server was clueless. It would have been nice had the signs with flavors would have been marked gluten free or contains gluten, or something along those lines. I got it anyways, keeping my fingers crossed that it was gluten free. It was ok. Nothing to really write home about. It was kind of gritty? Like it had ground up coffee in the ice cream base. read more

We have been coming to Ocean Shores for 20 years. I have never been more disappointed. The ice "cream" was more like ice milk, the flavors were artificial. We got two flavors, both were very disappointing and also very expensive. Going to pass from now one. Would have been better going to the IGA. read more

Pretty nice location and decent ice cream. The store is right next to the beach entrance and in a hot day much needed. They have tons of flavors to choose from and I chose the pistachio almond. The color of the ice cream was bright green which lowered my expectations by a lot. Though after I ate it, the ice cream was pretty good and the pistachio flavor was strong without being too extract tasting. Though I wished the sliced almonds in it were not so soggy. The cookie dough ice cream was pretty good in flavor but the amount of cookie dough in it could be increased. The customer service here was great. Overall, highly recommend the waffle cone. The waffle cone was fresh and crisp! read more

The ice cream is pretty bad. The coffee ice cream has coffee grounds in the ice cream, which is a bad choice. The pecan praline tasted like artificial flavors added to a vanilla base. And the waffle cone was stale. Pass! read more

We were hoping to have one last delicious ice cream on our last day in ocean shores and were so disappointed at the ice cream served here. It looks like they make their own ice cream but the taste is terrible, very artificial tasting with a bad after taste. I got one scoop of the brownie extreme and one birthday cake. Both tasted like they used fake flavoring and the after taste on the brownie extreme tasted like prunes or raisins. I didn't want to waste so I finished the brownie one but couldn't make myself finish the birthday cake. It was so expensive too! Go elsewhere for your ice cream! read more

They raised their prices again within a short time we visited and the staff is extremely rude. Highly advise to just go to McDonald's down the road. read more

Wow, not the best ice cream I've had and we've been here a few times. My daughter loves a flavor, so we bought three pints. Paid for them, 20% tip, got home and realized the pints are half full. Total rip-off. Don't waste your time read more

We love Murphy's! They have the best ice cream in Ocean Shores and their salt water taffy never makes it all the way home. Murphy's is a family favorite, it's a must have every trip. The salted caramel ice cream is my favorite hands down. read more

I went in having high hopes since the other ice cream shop in town is really good but i was sadly WRONG . I walked in and the employees looked like they hated their job. i got the moose tracks and it was the worst ice cream i've gotten. it didn't even taste like chocolate and the peanut butter cups tasted stale and gross. the consistency wasn't even like ice cream more like icey milk. I got one scoop and it was so small compared to the other ice cream shop in town and they are literally the same price . not worth the money id rather eat sand.. read more

My review is the same, 6 years later. Great selection of ice cream, fudge, and salt water taffy. Decent prices, decent sitting area, easy parking. BUT......... the teenaged boy working needs some lessons in customer service. Very surly and grumpy. Dude - you are working in a candy shop - with kids and tourists as customers. A smile wouldn't kill you would it? I didn't always like working in retail when I was young either, but it is a job and the owner pays you to deliver their product with good customer service skills. read more

Walk by this place and you can smell waffle cone, then you know you're probably in good hands. My boyfriend and I got our classic cookie dough ice-cream in waffle cone, and we liked it. I tried a small sample of Unicorn ice-cream, but I am not sure if I am a big fan of sweet cotton candy taste-like ice-cream. We didn't look at everything else, so that is it for my review for this place. You may want to read further if you're curious about candy selections in this store. read more

I have no idea what the heck they are doing. Moose tracks: chocolate ice cream, crushed reeses and peanut butter. I love ice cream. I've even finished soured ice cream before. This ice cream had no taste. Other than a few chunks of reeses. $6+ for ice cream I threw away. I have never thrown ice cream away, ever. Never. This didn't even taste like chocolate ice cream. It tasted like cold nothing. This place was quick and clean. But $6 for a single scoop cone. NOPE! I didn't think ice cream could be bad, I've been proven wrong. Yuck. read more

The ice cream is really lacking flavor. We joked if it was the first signs of COVID, but really they just didn't add enough flavoring. The cupcake, birthday cake, and white chocolate raspberry all just tasted like cream. The moose tracks was pretty meh. The actual waffle cone was tasty. They've got great social distancing practices in place. That is much appreciated. Excited to chew ourselves silly on taffy on the drive home. read more

Ice cream is bland and expensive. Chai was like vanilla. All three of us left disappointed

Went into Murphy's to grab some ice cream. I'm happy they are back and open. We ordered each one flavor. We ended up with a small cup called a half pint size that had one scoop on it for 5$. Not even a full cup. The ice cream tastes good but it's way too much for way too little. And a cone is 75 cents extra you have to buy it separate. I know the new rules are making things weird. But I can get a whole gallon of ice cream at IGA for five bucks so for one tiny scoop I was really disappointed. At least fill the cup. read more

Murphy's Candy & Ice Cream - Small one scoop is not a half pint. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ocean Shores, Washington

Rude service (if you want to call what I received as service) and over priced. You know the saying about fool me once, shame on you? And, fool me twice, shame on me? Fits this place perfectly. Gave them my touist money and business 6 months ago and had indifferent service and thought product was over priced. Went in today, prices were higher yet ($17.50 for 2 double scoops + tax) which is over priced for quality and quantity - but OK, I get the inflation situation. Incompetent and rude service however? No! It doesn't cost a business any more to have their employees listen and to be efficient and polite than not. Had to ask twice for lids and after asking for a bag, apparently I deserved not a thank you, or an insincere "have a nice day" or any acknowledgement that I was appreciated as a customer. You know the saying " third times the charm"? Sorry, there won't be a third time. read more

Horrible customer service. The woman working the cash register was grumpy and very unfriendly. Then we waited and waited for our order and it never came. Many people who ordered after us got their ice cream first. We asked what was going on and we still continued to wait while they made other orders because they "forgot" ours. There are other ice cream choices at the beach so we won't be going back to this one. read more

Service was good but the two kids that got ice cream cones said the ice cream was favorable the three of us the got one cone and two shakes the ice cream was nothing to get excited about flavorless and we won't return The milkshake was completely flavorless read more

Friendly and helpful staff. They have a broad selection of prepackaged and in-house made candies. The big draw seemed to be the ice creams. They looked very good and they had a large variety to choose from. I didn't try any due to being a cool day when we visited. I'm looking forward to stop back in when the weather is nicer just to try the ice cream! read more

Always my favorite ice-cream shop because they're the only shop that has "ALMOND JOY" ice-cream! They're always packed when weather is good & holidays! But MY have the prices gone up, like so many other places. Over $6 for 1 scoop on a regular cone! Unfortunately, won't be able to splurge every day when I vacation here, like I've always done in the past. read more

The ice cream is okay but it's expensive. They weigh it and you pay by the ounce. The candy prices are pretty expensive. The customer service isn't great. There isn't a system to how the line works and people were just jumbled all over. There are a few large tables to sit at. No bathroom. read more

Not open during posted hours online... Workers were even inside, but ignored everyone. Murphy is lame.

Hopefully this gets to the owner. Stopped by today and ordered two single scoops for my two kids. I was charged almost $15. I mentioned the price seemed high and the employee didn't acknowledge what I said. I paid and then saw the menu above that says $5 a scoop. I asked my daughter to confirm if what I was seeing was right and he quickly put down our ice cream and was off to the back. read more

I've been coming here for many years, but never really appreciated thier HOMEMADE icecream! YUMMMM-ME! I am weak-in-the-knees for the ole' favourite "rocky road", which is what I ordered on my recent trip. I savored my tastey treat. There is no skimping on ingredients here peeps!... very yummy. My friend Kristi had the chocolate, carmel and cashew scoop and it was just as tastey! =D Usually, this is my routine stop for salt water taffy, which they have many many many flavors and not too bad for 1lb = $4.75. Its always crowded here, with its flair of homemade ice cream, homemade smoothies and mocha shakes, homemade fudge and fun candy treats! Make it one of your stops when you are visiting the ocean! read more

Fantastic, local ice cream shop - delicious, creative ice cream flavors, wide assortment of fudge and chocolate all made in the shop! I tried over 10 flavors of ice cream :D and the employee Bella was very patient and helpful with my selection. I also bought some chocolates and highly recommend the salted peanut butter cup - YUM!! I can't wait to visit Ocean Shores again and go back here. read more

Murphy's Candy & Ice Cream - Key lime and sweet cream ice cream in a fresh made waffle cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ocean Shores, Washington

When we got here, the shop was closing, and the open sign was turned off. Although we were okay with taking our ice cream desires elsewhere, the girl behind the counter welcomed us with open arms. I tried the white licorice ice cream and fell in love. There was the slightest hint of licorice, but it was so creamy! The service was outstanding, and the sweet person behind the counter was totally receptive to our questions, and even laughed at our jokes. The ice cream was wonderful, but I most enjoyed the display of $4 sunglasses that was right in front of the counter. All in all the experience was gah-roovy and it's definitely a place to which we will return the next time we are at Ocean Shores read more

If you want ice cream, fudge and/or salt water taffy? Then this place is for you. All of the above items were fantastic. Great flavors, great prices and great customer service. Had a great time; I even shipped some fudge and taffy back home to Arizona. read more

The ice cream place was alright. I got a rocky road. It looked nothing like rocky road, it didn't even look like a chocolate based ice cream, or for that matter, even taste like chocolate. It tasted sweet and it was okay but it was not chocolate. All the other flavors that were supposed to be chocolate were the same color as this one. The ice cream tasted like chocnut or dela Rosa candy if you've ever tried those. If you can find better ice cream, don't go here. It was simply alright. read more

As soon as I walked into this place, it was pretty much chaos. It was labor day weekend so there were a ton of people here, all crowding the ice cream. The layout is confusing, as there is really no line and people just chat up any employee to get their order taken care. There were a ton of flavors, and I decided on the Caramel Praline Pecan. It was decent but not really that distinctive, which is pretty much how I'd describe the flavors my parents had as well (Huckleberry? and Walnut/Pecan?). It's worth noting that Murphy's had the WORST waffle cone I've EVER had. Seriously, I don't know how you can make them that soggy and flavorless. Blech. read more

I was blatantly skipped and ignored by staff who served THREE customers who were standing behind me. I was standing up at the counter waiting to order immediately after my two friends who were served, but not one person acknowledged me as I was trying to make eye contact with one of three staff who were serving that day. Guess you have to be an asshole and cut your way in to get served by assholes. read more

The ice cream was fine. Nothing special at all long wait. Regular candy selection not available. They didn't have as many flavors as I remember and no toppings read more
