Marble Slab Creamery

Expensive, overrated, melted liquid cream. This place is a tourist trap. Complete joke.
We went in and ordered our ice cream. They screwed up our order twice. If I’m paying $ 7.00 for the smallest scoop of ice cream it better be the best damned ice cream I’ve ever had. When I sat down I noticed it was completely liquid. It wasn’t even that hot out either.
Seriously, go anywhere else. Save your money.

anytime you go here it’s hella busy. if they don’t have a flavour, i would suggest you just deal with it and ask for another one because if they «go in the back to check», it could be 20 – 30 minutes before anyone resurfaces. i always get the fancy ones like banana split or brownie sundae, but somehow, my boyfriend’s simple vanilla with berries tends to be more delicious. not sure if that’s a comment on your partner’s food always tasting better or simple things being more yummy. apart from the disappearing act, service tends to be pleasant and nice. price is mediocre. not really a lot of place to sit so we usually just get it to go.

Been coming here for a while and it’s been my go-​to place for delicious ice cream. I always get the white chocolate icecream with raspberry mix-​in to even out the sweetness with sourness.
Here’s my rant (skip if you don’t care): Recently, they joined together with Subway which for some people would be convenient, but for someone who is tired of subway because it literally reminds me of the dark days of exam week, I found it dis-​appetizes their icecream. Don’t get me wrong, the icecream is still good but it’s just the atmosphere-​the sweet waffle cone, icecream smell… Now is all masked with subway smell.
Other than their environment let me comment on their cakes. I got the raspberry cheesecake icecream cake which was $ 27.99. It had raspberry and graham cracker mix-​ins! Graham crackers was sooo good being soaked in icecream for so long. Only downside was there were only 2 pieces in one slice. I recommend it if you like something not too sweet like me.
Overall good for icecream, decent service, reasonable prices, awesome location! So you can get icecream and hang around Yonge-​Dundas square or go shopping around Yonge street/​Eatons.

I used to love Marble Slab as a child. The ice cream is made fresh in store and they have a fairly wide range of flavours. (I especially like their mango and sweet cream.) Pretty good service generally too, they will allows you to sample any number of flavours to better help you decide on what to get.
That being said, the ice cream is pretty pricy. One small and one regular cone ended up costing almost $ 15. It’s still good for an occasional treat, but if I ever want to cool down on a hot day again, I might just go to eaton and enjoy the air conditioning.

Customer service at this location was terrible, but the ice cream was good.
There was a line when I went, and when it was my turn, the attendant asked for the order of the people behind me. I politely told him that I haven’t been served yet, and the man rolled his eyes at me and said «okay what do you want». I was a bit taken aback and said he could finish taking the other people’s orders but he sort of just looked at me. I quickly told him my order, paid, and got out of there asap.
I like going to marble slab with friends for their cute ice cream cones, but the customer service has turned me off from this place a couple times. I get they must be tired, but seriously is it so hard to just be polite?

Yes it’s pricey BUT…
They have an ice cream and brownie sundae thingy that is phenomenal. Ask for the brownie heated up, add walnuts on the side, stick to a simply contrasting flavor like vanilla, and ask them for no whipped cream.
It’s incredibly delicious!

One of the best ice creamery I’ve ever been. I had the oreo cookie shake and it was milky, creamy, sweet and chocolaty. It was expensive but its money well spent. I decided to give them 4 stars because I had a hard time understanding the menu and there wasnt much seating. Its a must if your in Dundas Square on a nice summers day.

I’ve tasted most of their flavours and they are all pretty disappointingly weak & bland. The cookie dough also seemed incredibly stale. I was so excited to try this place but will definitely not be going back. I ordered the peanut butter ice cream with cookie dough, crunch & rolo. I split it with a friend who got cheesecake ice cream with cookie dough, chocolate chips, rolo, and I think one other mixing. We ended up just picking out a few rolo pieces and leaving our ice cream behind.

Lot bigger than the Vancouver ones. Tables front and back.
Nice they still accept the SPC card.
Ordered my personal favourite, the coffee.
Good deal now, buy 3 one litres for $ 24.

My colleague brought me here for my birthday. January. I’ve been a couple of times for a cup of ice cream with all the free bits.
Today I decided price wise I might as well buy a litre and leave it at work for my stress eating moments.
1L = $ 10.95 no where on the board next to that section does it say there is a charge for the extras (Skor, Oreo, etc). I go to pay and the total was $ 16 and change! I’m like what?! It’s $ 10.95. She says: oh no, $ 3 for each thing you picked. Me: What?! That is not stated on the board! She: I’ll charge for two items then. Me: I shouldn’t be charged for any! I even spoke to her in French to make sure she was communicating the correct information. Her English is so so.
Not impressed! Bad customer service.

On Wed May 21, two of us had a sundae each. We arrived at 7:00pm so the lineup was minimal. Our server was courteous.
A sundae is normally $ 6.59 which includes 2 scoops and a few mixings. However, we used a coupon where we get 2 sundaes for $ 8.00, They were also offering unlimited mixings and double stamps for their «Slab Club» so we got 4 stamps out of 8 required for a free ice cream or yogurt. So this was a very good deal (hence 3 stars instead of 2 stars).
The ice cream itself was very rich (hence the normally higher price).
One of us had a sundae with ice cream (red velvet and coconut), mixings (cookie dough, cake chunks, shredded coconut), on top (hot caramel, cherry).
The other had a sundae with ice cream (amaretto and double dark chocolate), mixings (butterfinger, graham cracker and shredded coconut), on top (blue berries, pineapple, mini peaches, whipped cream, peanuts, cherry).
Hint: Don’t get mini peaches since the ice cream cools it down so that it was too hard to chew on them.
See my photos.

I’m more of a frozen yoghurt girl but I absolutely LOVE their cheesecake flavour ice cream! YUM! I love how the ice cream itself is the flavour of cheesecake. Usually, you just get chunks of cheesecake in ice cream so theirs is different. I get it with the cake mixed in. So bad but so tasty. I’m going to try their malted shakes next. I’m a sucker for anything malt flavored.
I’m giving them a 3 star because the service is unpredictable. You never know if you will get someone rude or pleasant and I once had to wait a really long time while two of the staff were on the other end. One was tending to a customer and I thought the other one would take a break from cleaning, wash her hands and come serve me but nope, didn’t happen and the one who finally came to serve me did not see why one might be unimpressed by the unnecessary wait.

Um lugar bem interessante, eu viciei, recomendo!
Lá você escolhe o sabor da massa e pode escolher confeitos, biscoitos entre outros para colocar no seu sorvete, mas o diferencial é que eles misturam em uma pedra de mármore o seu sorvete com os itens que você escolheu.
Eu só tirei uma estrela da avaliação pelo preço ser um tanto caro.
Mas eu amei o lugar! É muito bom!

The icecream and waffles are good, albeit it is on the pricier side. The mixed looking tall girl is pretty rude though. When I asked her a question about the serving size, she didn’t answer me and just pointed to the menu board. I forgot my glasses that time so I couldn’t see the menu board and she refused to tell me. The other staff are really friendly though.

I’m gonna keep it short and simple: overpriced, terrible/​incredibly slow service, and overall just not a great experience.
I have been here at least 3 times and it’s always the same outcome. I leave feeling annoyed at how long I had to wait (I once waited for 15 minutes). They seriously need more workers here, especially during the busy times of the day. They seem disorganized in addition to being understaffed.
The ice cream is good, but not worth it. It’s a once-​in-​a-​while treat since it costs $ 5. You’re better off just getting a tub of Breyer’s from the supermarket and calling it a night.

This place had very good ice cream — I had a milkshake with Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream and Oreo Cookie pieces — it was a great snack in the afternoon and satisfied my sweet tooth.

2.5 stars
I finally had a chance to try this popular ice cream shop but don’t think it’s worth the long lines. A small cup /​cone is almost $ 5.
I stopped by in the past but always left due to the annoying line-​ups. I finally know why the lines are so long:
First they weigh every single scoop — what’s up with that? In my view, that’s a sign of cheapness, god forbid they give me an extra ounce of ice cream. Second, they put the scoop of ice cream on a slab of marble and mix in one ingredient (i.e. brownies, cookie dough or fruit) by hand. I don’t think either step adds value.
The selection of flavours were not nearly as interesting as my personal fav. — Ben & Jerry’s. The ice cream clearly differentiates itself by being incredibly rich. I tried the Cinnabon flavour and found the cinnamon taste too overpowering. I also tried the white chocolate and thought that was better.
Lining up for ice cream is just not my thing so will not likely return. The Ice cream is also to rich for my taste but I recommend trying for yourself at least once.
BK

Had dessert the other night after having dinner in the area.
Unassuming business — like Yvonne T, I’ve probably walked by MSC numerous times yet never noticed it. My friend suggested coming here, which is the reason why I ended up here.
Pricing is average (I think) — then again, I don’t go out for ice cream often so it’s hard to compare.
I tested a good 15 flavors. They were all fine.
Nothing to write home about, but nothing to really complain about as well.
It was a-​ok.

It’s one of those things you don’t eat everyday. For $ 4.99 it is a bit much but it’s a ‘once in a while’ indulgence. what’s a 1000 calories and 60g of sugar anyways?.. sure it take extra effort to mash the ice cream and measure it. suppose for the higher cost, the labor charge is included. :p
Most original flavour is birthday cake. Tastes like icing sugar and vanilla batter. Yum.
I get this mixed with Butterfinger or Kit Kat. One time I had them mash an apple pie Was a pretty good Pie a la mode mix.
Their waffle cones are made fresh and the line ebbs and flows so time your line entry. just like skipping. :)
Last time I was here appears they are diversifying and offering yogurt and new flavours like Chai.

The Marble Slab Creamery
330 Yonge Street
Yonge-​Dundas Square
***
The Marble Slab is located in the vicinity of Yonge & Dundas Square. I had walked by many times but never been a customer — finally I made it in to see what it was all about.
They have a variety of different flavours ranging from the common Strawberry to the not-​so-​common Amaretto. A small will set you back $ 4.49 for one scoop, but each comes with 1 topping and a vanilla waffle cone, so I suppose at the end of the day its not really «overpriced.» If you were to tack on a waffle cone at Laura Secord or Baskin Robbins I’m sure the price would be about that. A small = 1 scoop. A variety of ice cream cakes are also available for purchase. You may also want to try one of their Tasty Creations, Sundaes or Milkshakes!
We ended up ordering the Cookies ‘n Cake, which is basically their Sweet Cream ice cream, with cookie dough, and Oreo cookies. We also added pecans to the mix because my dining companion adores pecans.
I ordered the Amaretto for myself with slivered almonds, a perfect accompaniment for the box of Carlsbad Oblatten Vanilla-​Almond wafers that I had delightfully pillaged from Winners. If you’ve never had one of these babies, you should try one!
If you want to upgrade to one of their premium waffle cones (dipped in: white chocolate, skor bar, chocolate etc), it is an additional $ 0.99.
Service is really slow for a variety of reasons.
1. They scoop out your ice cream and weigh it on a scale.
2. They then take your ice cream to the «marble slab» and «knead it» with the ice cream scoop and another flat utensil with the topping of your choice to mix it altogether.
3. The same girl who serves you has to ring you out at the register.
Verdict:
I found the actual ice cream itself was a no-​jokes, full-​cream, full-​fat, «heavy» ice cream compared to the likes of Greg’s, Ed’s Real Scoop, and Summer’s Sweet Memories. I also found the waffle cone to be a tad much on the sweetness factor. It pushes the already «heavy» ice cream treat into a whole new level of indulgence!
You can never go wrong with ice cream, however, Ed’s Real Scoop remains the champion of ice creameries that I’ve experienced in Toronto.

$ 4.99 for a «Regular sized icecream» is much. .
But when you think about it, they are offering you two giant scoops of what ever flavoured icecream you want and all of their icecreams are «made fresh daily». You than can choose 1 free scoop of what ever candy/​food you want to be mashed into your icecream. 79cents? to add another sccop!
If you love icecream like I do. You will treat yourself once in a while to Marble Slab!
Very good quality icecream and friendly staff at this location!
