Went here on a rainy day Memorial Day weekend. I hadn’t been in years so I wasn’t sure what to order so we ended up going with classic vanilla yogurt soft serve & it was delish. The server seemed slightly annoyed but was pretty patient. Great pit stop for a busy day of running around.

Root beer tastes like water. soft serve is marshmallow fluff. building needs to be rehabbed. more seating needed - existing benches need power washing.

Ive been coming here since I was a kid. The icecream is always good with great flavors. Usually busy, but they work quickly to get everyone served. Theres multiple picnic tables and benches for seating.

We are soft serve addicts! Although we only had cones, the ice cream was vanillary and had the texture of velvet...smoothe and creammy. For that Kurver gets a 5!

I was in Albany/Colonie on Friday. I stopped & got a medium soft vanilla/chocolate twist cone. It was a good size for a medium. And while I didnt need it, I did enjoy it.🙂

Ordered 2 sundaes. 2 separate servers. One was perfect, one was not. Miscommunication that was not corrected. Never had an issue before. We will go back because it is normally great.

Dont understand whats all the hubbub about this place. I ordered a Sweet&Salty specialty sundae. The whipped cream on top tasted chalky; the caramel and hot fudge toppings were at best average, and the chocolate soft serve base had hardly any taste of all. Ive had far better everything at any roadside ice cream place.The order taker/server was very pleasant, and the parking lot was easy to get in and out of.

Best ice cream (custard style) I have ever had. Live in NC now and this is my first stop when I come to the capital district. Great flavors, friendly quick service.

Review №15

Thickest, creamiest ice cream in capital region. Taste like custard! It’s heavenly, I won’t get ice cream anywhere else. The whip cream tastes like whipped frosting. There is no better!!!😍

Review №24

The ice cream was pretty good but the line was across the parking lot. It was kind of crazy considering there is still a pandemic going on and everyone is like a foot away from each other lined up for about 15-20 min at a time.

I expect a line because the ice cream is so great and they really care and move the line quickly

Some of the ice cream tastes great, but sometimes it tastes soapy and like chemicals like when they clean the machines they didnt rinse the soap thoroughly enough.

I would say it’s the worst ice cream I have ever had in my life. It’s warm and oily-feel. Ew, so disappointed.

Best soft serve in the area. You have to reach Lake George for anything better. Rotating flavors keep it fresh, and while always busy, the staff keeps things moving.

Kurver Kreme is one of my favorite summer spots. Great dogs and ice cream and very reasonably priced.

Very fast and efficient customer service, the fact that they have only 8 icecream and new flavors every week gives me even more reasons to come back.

I went because it had been my sons favorite place for ice cream and now I know why. The ice cream is excellent and they have the largest size sundae I have ever seen offered. Its called the Grand Pappy and it was worth it. Definitely worth the trip.

Professional and nice people. I completely messed up the wording when I gave my order, and I made them make 2 extra banana splits by accident. However, they refunded my purchase, although it was my mistake.

Wasn’t worth the money. My ice cream felt warm and my cone was stale. Was very disappointed. Stewart’s has better ice cream than them.

Review №76

This is one of my favorite places to go for ice cream. I always seem to get the same server each time I go there, and she’s really cool and friendly. I highly recommend this place and it’s probably my top three favorite ice cream spots here in town.

Wow! Really great soft serve ice cream. Almost like frozen custard. Line moves fast and worth it. They make terrific sundaes and shakes. They have hard ice cream too but why?

Review №81

Absolute best soft ice cream/custard in the Albany area. The only drawback is that they are closing for the season very soon.

Al
Review №82

The service was fast, ice cream decently priced and good portions. However, their soft serve ice cream is NOT GOOD. It tasted and had the texture of whipped cream. It was not overly flavorful. I felt like it was bland whipped cream and a waste of calories. Go to the Snowman instead.

Ta
Review №83

The ice cream is delicious and creamy. They have been in business for a good long time but customer service has changed considerably. I remember always receiving excellent customer service back in the days. I hate when that part fades because it seems like such a lost art. The product itself remains true to its original goodness.

This week special flavor is toasted coconut. You can get it twisted with chocolate. Yum!!

Review №86

The service is very quick and staff are very friendly. We order ice cream cakes from here often as they always are very good. They require 3 days advance notice for ice cream cakes with fudge in the middle. Also have had their hot dogs and they were very good.

Another Colonie/Albany institution. Great soft serve.

Le
Review №88

Typical soft-serve joint positioned on a busy thoroughfare. Specialty flavors change daily. Nothing particularly sets it apart from any other seasonal ice cream shack in the area. If youve experienced the frozen custard delights of Western NY and beyond, this wont measure up.

Review №89

Great ice cream and lots of toppings to choose from! Try the super bucket size portion.... it’s enough for the family for sure. My favorite combination is the vanilla sunday with hot fudge and extra peanut butter sauce! make sure you get the whip cream and a few extra cherries on top! Enjoy !!!

A Colonie iconic summer tradition. Summer begins and ends with the opening/closing of Kurver Kreme!! Great selection of any kind of ice cream treat you can imagine. Hardworking staff that clears even the longest line. Get yourself some ice cream... you wont regret it!!

Kurver Kreme has a great atmosphere and great choices. Delicious hot fudge brownie Sunday and shakes, also hot food. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a good ice cream place. Perfect for a hot summer night and centrally located near Colonie center right off of fuller rd.

Try the shake float! It is incredibly good! Kurver also carries a daily rotating flavor of soft sherbet.This is an Albany institution. The place is clean, service is quick, prices are reasonable. You will love it.
