I was very disappointed with Malley's Ice Cream shop. The decor is tacky; everything is pink. I know that that is their signature color and Malley's is trying to make it reminiscent of old ice cream parlors, but it just seams cheep.
The service was very poor too. The shop is staffed with teenagers who don't seem to care much. We ordered children's Sundays for our 3 1/2 year olds. The server took our order and didn't mention that these would be very large for such young children. She made no effort to be friendly either.
The ice cream is nothing special either, tasted like cheap store brands. The "hot fudge sundae" was just a dish of unappetizing, yellow colored, vanilla ice cream serverd with a small glass of "hot fudge" on the side. The fudge tasted off and was a gloppy mess.
They also serve a small bowl of pretzels when they take the customers orders. The bowls are cheap, tacky, and brown, the kind I might see a college student on a tight budget use.
The store seems to in the process of some type of remodeling. The flooring has been removed and the shop smells like chemicals. Not at all appetizing to have a bowl of ice cream after dinner.
If you are looking for great ice cream and a nice place to enjoy it, try Mitchel's or Rosso Gelato, both in Rocky River. The Dairy Queen just south of Malley's is also better and probably Martin's Deli on Bassett Rd.
