Kohr Bros Frozen Custard

Delicious frozen custard! Really.
Not ever to be confused with plain-​old soft serve ice cream. CUSTARD is King and Kohr Brothers makes it just right.
Get the chocolate on a cone dipped in chocolate. Benches everywhere nearby to sit and enjoy.
I felt like a kid again as the ice creak melted and dripped down my hand and to my elbow!
What a fantastic day and a beautiful memory. I cannot wait to return to Stone Harbour to have this again.

Annual trip involves a stop at Kohr’s. Everyone enjoys the flavors, and wish banana was more regular selection. Decent experience, but prices are starting to top the over-​priced level.

I don’t care in my regular twist cone cost me over $ 5, it was perfect.
This is the custard of your dreams. Rich, decadent and impossible to be patient eating, with the enthusiasm of a child.
The bar is set.

I don’t eat a lot of ice cream anymore, partly because of the whole Aspiring Vegan thing, and partly because I don’t go nuts for ice cream like other people do. And I’m really not a fan of soft serve, pretty much ever. Except in the case of Kohr Brothers.
Soft serve ice cream is just plain boring. I’d much rather have hard serve ice cream with big chunks of raw cookie dough or brownies in it. And frozen yogurt is just awful and not much healthier than the real stuff. But Kohr Brothers serves their own version of soft serve ice cream — frozen custard, to be exact. I really don’t know what makes it different from it’s imitators, but it is without a doubt the most addicting stuff on the planet. With a cold, almost marshmallow-​y texture, a cup or cone of Kohr Brothers’ vanilla-​chocolate twist with sprinkles is like eating a slice of heaven. The stuff is so freaking good.
And yes, of course, good stuff doesn’t come cheap. Tack on the fact that you are eating it in a seasonal shore town, and it gets even more expensive. But it’s well worth it, in my opinion. It may not be for everyone, but if you’ve never tried it, then you are missing out.

So Ice Cream, or in this case soft serve, is almost impossible to turn into a negative experience, but not in Avalon/​Stone Harbor,… continuing our «you can’t make this isht up» mini vacation, we were headed to Stone Harbor to play a round of ridiculously overpriced Miniature Golf, but unfortunately the weather had other plans. As the storm blew in we convinced the kids Ice cream would be a great substitute for the now unobtainable round O golf. The only real Ice cream place has a line out the door ²⁴⁄₇ so we stopped at Kohr Bros. The choices are pretty basic, overpriced Vanilla, Chocolate, Coffee, and Orange Soft Serve. My son gets vanilla (no matter what else is available) so I order his cone, just as the charming older lady behind the counter pulls the lever of the Soft serve machine, and gets an ounce (or less) in the cone I hear my son say cup, and I blurt out wait! a cup! What happened next is still perplexing: The grumpy old lady mumbles to her compatriot «I asked him three times, she hands the 10 cent cone with 10 cents worth of soft serve to her cohort who reacts as though she just handed him a radioactive isotope! He literally threw it at the trash can like his hand was on fire. As you know if you have read any of my other reviews, I am kinda militant about the products and services that I am asked to pay for. If it is good, it should be ’cause I am paying for it. If it’s great, I am thrilled and will tell everyone I can get to listen. If it’s bad, I will probably say nothing and never go back, but if it is unreasonably bad… well…, here we are. I looked at my wife who wanted nothing more than to get our kids the ice cream and head back to the hotel. I on the other hand was now in the position of having to decide to give these cretins even more money after such absurd treatment. I stared at the evil old lady behind the counter, she glared back. I looked at my wife, she glared back. I couldn’t stop myself, I told the lady behind the counter how I felt about her complaining about having «asked me three times» (which she never did because I ordered without being asked anything), instead of an apology she became even more belligerent and restated her reason for taking offense. Unbelievable! 20 cents worth of Soft Serve. I paid the $ 4.45 for the single cup of crappy soft serve and we left. I will never patronize a Kohr Bros. again and every chance I get I will share my tale of woe. Great job there old lady of Stone Harbor. Your level of customer service is truly extraordinary.

These stores are all over the Jersey shore: Cape May, Wildwood boardwalk (like 3 of them there) and Stone Harbor so I had to try it. No samples, that sucks, you may be stuck with a flavor you don’t like so much. I went vanilla kiddie size in a cup, I really just wanted to try a little portion. Nutrition fact: 130 kcal per ½ cup, 50g of fat. Not bad.
I enjoyed it very much actually, it felt super creamy and soft, perfect texture to me! It is prepped with eggs according to the guy behind the counter hence the custard part. Totally yummy. I don’t think I would go more than the half cup tho, I am used to super light froyo, but on a hot summer day this treat totally hit the spot! Yummy.

Too rich and creamy for it to be lo-​cal… but I wanna believe them. This is the best soft-​serve ice-​cream I’ve had. I’m glad that there isn’t a Kohr’s near my house or I would be eating it everyday. It’s all natural … you can tell because it melts so fast into liquid… not like the Carvel ice-​cream cake that can sit out for hours and still keep its shape :)

$ 8 for 2 small cones with a selection of three flavors. They even had a sign advertising milkshakes but the lady said they didn’t sell milkshakes. Kohr Bros is good, but this one is terrible. The store has a large empty area where there should be tables or somewhere to sit. I don’t recommend this location for ice cream.

When all the tourists (read: suckers) make their way over to Springers for the over priced, over rated ice cream in the ridiculously long line, I recommend you give Kohr Brothers a try. They are right in the heart of 96^th Street and serve up some delicious soft serve. Yes, if you’re craving hard ice cream you’ll need to look elsewhere (like Springer’s), but Kohr Bros can make a swirl out of all their flavors. The orange/​vanilla is popular, but I go with the chocolate peanut butter swirl every time! Have you seen anywhere else that offers that with soft serve? I haven’t. It’s $ 4 for a small swirl, but they are big on size and taste.
Be warned, the lines can get long here too, but it is very fast moving and nowhere near as bad as Springer’s in price or wait. Better ice cream too. Enjoy!

The line was so long on a Saturday night but moved quickly. The staff was really friendly too. I got an orange and vanilla swirl and it was absolutely perfect. Kinda big for a small size but I didn’t complain!
