Ray's Candy Store

Alphabet City

Ray's Candy Store, open 24/7 since 1974, is where 91-year-old Ray Alvarez serves egg creams, fried Oreos, and classic soft-serve to night owls and neighborhood regulars alike. The walls are plastered with decades of memorabilia, and Ray himself is usually behind the counter, ready with a story and a smile.
