Ralph’s Famous Italian Ices coming to 2nd Avenue in Gramercy Park



An EVG reader shared this photo from several blocks outside the usual coverage zone ... showing that a Ralph’s Famous Italian Ices outpost is opening on Second Avenue between 21st Street and 22nd Street.

For now this appears to be the only Manhattan location for Ralph's, which got its start in Staten Island in 1928. There are multiple outposts on Long Island, Queens and in New Jersey. (Thanks to Shiv in the comments who pointed out that a Ralph's closed a few years back on 24th Street near Lexington.)

The Ralph's Instagram account notes this location will open in early March.

  3. YAY for the return of Ralph's to the area! I've missed them since they were kicked out of the Baruch location by the building's new ownership.
