    chocolate chip cookie dough + waffle cone
    Lisa C.

    After a delicious breakfast at a nearby restaurant, I felt like something sweet and savory, so I stopped by Ben & Jerry's. My go-to ice cream treat is chocolate chip cookie dough snuggled nicely inside a waffle cone. It hit the spot and was everything I'd imagined it would be. And, why does eating ice cream this way always make me feel like a kid again?! The waffle cone was a perfect size and was created the way I like it. Some waffle cones can be too large, with not enough ice cream, and darker in color, which gives them a rich flavor that I'm not crazy about. But this one was just right. There were no lines, so there was no waiting, and I got in and out quickly. They have a few tables inside if you feel like sitting down and eating your ice cream while smelling the delicious scent of an ice cream parlor.

    Value for money: 4 Cleanliness: 4 Food Quality: 5 Customer Service: 4 Look and Feel (Ambiance): 4 Thank you, Come Again?: 4 Love me some Ben & Jerry's! This location is super convenient--just a short walk from the Residence Inn Marriott in Galveston, which makes it a perfect stop for an evening sweet treat. They had all the classic Ben & Jerry's favorites like Phish Food, Cherry Garcia, and Strawberry Cheesecake, which is always a win for longtime fans. I went with the Tonight Dough--a combo of caramel and chocolate ice creams swirled with chocolate cookie bits, chocolate chip cookie dough, and peanut butter cookie dough. It was tasty and hit the sweet tooth. A kids scoop was $5.99, which is a bit pricey, but the flavor made it worth it. I didn't see any indoor seating during my visit, so it's more of a grab-and-go setup, but the service was quick and friendly. If you're staying nearby or just craving something sweet, this Ben & Jerry's is a great stop.

    Just an ice cream shop that sells Ben and Jerry's ice cream. Nothing spectacular. Staff seemed kind of annoyed that people were in there wanting ice cream. There are a few tables inside to sit at. They had bottled water in a bin with ice over it to keep it cool for sale.

    April 26, 2024 I love this ice cream... so, I can't say WHY I've never stopped in when I've lived in Galveston for 11 years!!! I'm sorry, Ben-Jerry. Trivia: These 2 Vermont guys took a $5 correspondence class on making ice cream in 1978... then opened their first shop in a renovated station! MOO!! They are active in the community and support many worthwhile causes locally and nationwide. They strive to NOT leave a carbon footprint and support the cows and farmers that help this company make delicious ice cream Today, I tried cookie dough and cherry garcia... both great

    Horrible service will never come back came in to find out if they can do my fav as a milkshake and the could but I left cause from the time I walked in can not greeted it was down hill I order then after she slammed the display door open I walked out and spent money next door and the sad thing is I was so happy to get the shake I was going to leave a big tip like I always doo the need to refresh there staff

    No matter how many ice cream shops pop up, Ben & Jerry's is always such a treat! I come to this location often when in the area, but the last few times, I've found service to be absolutely rude, slow, and sloppy. The youngsters just take very little pride in their work ethic. I went last night and while the two employees were possibly overwhelmed, the male in particular was rude as he made a smart-alec response to a customer about hot fudge over ice cream saying something along the lines of "duh, it's going to melt" They don't allow customers to use their restroom, and redirect you to the pizza place next door.

    Two large scoops of strawberry marshmallow

    We came in about 20 minutes from closing. Fiance ordered a large cup and I ordered a small cup. These scoops were huge! I thought he was crazy for even getting a large cup. For the non-dairy people like me, They had a delicious strawberry marshmellow flavor that highly recommend over the non dairy chocolate chip cookie dough. I felt the cookie dough one was a little too sweet while the strawberry marshmallow flavor was just perfect. Staff was very polite and we virtually had no wait in line when we walked in.

    This is the worst Ben and Jerry scoop shop I have been to. I verified online thay had the scoop shop exclusive flavor of cookies and cream and I was happy when I saw it on the menu when I walked in the store and then it went downhill. As soon as we walked there were workers in the back just sitting in view of the customers. They were sitting on their phones and chatting. I made eye contact one, she got up, and then went right back to sitting talking to fellow workers. There is also a bell on the door so they can hear when someone comes in and more people came in after us. A worker came back in the store from outside and had to get them moving to help us after a 4 minute wait. I asked if they had cookies and cream but they did not have the ice cream. They were annoyed that I needed to think after not having an ice cream that was on the menu board. I picked a different flavor and the ice cream was yummy. Overall I was very disappointed with this scoop shop and do not plan to return.

Unfortunately, everything surrounding the service left a very bad impression. I was charged for a consultation, which I agreed to in good faith, expecting professionalism and follow-up. However, I had to repeatedly reach out, and even then, responses were inconsistent or nonexistent. Being charged upfront without receiving the expected level of service feels misleading and unprofessional. On top of that, there were interactions that gave off uncomfortable and concerning vibes. It's difficult to ignore behavior that comes across as dismissive or biased, and it significantly impacted my overall experience. Everyone deserves to feel respected and valued as a customer. It's disappointing because the product itself shows real talent, but customer service and professionalism matter just as much. I hope the business takes feedback seriously and improves how they interact with clients in the future.

The waffle was good and fluffy--not too thick or too thin. The scrambled eggs were slightly overcooked but still tasty, and the bacon had the perfect amount of flavor and crispness. I wasn't a fan of the vanilla latte, as it was much too sweet for my taste, and the regular coffee was just okay--it lacked the bold flavor or kick I was hoping for. Others at my table ordered the steak and eggs and the migas, and both cleaned their plates, which is always a good sign. Overall, it was a nice breakfast spot with plenty of menu items I'd like to try, and I'd definitely go back.

We did not know that they made all of their food to order. We waited around 30 minutes to get our food, but well worth it! Please note that there is a sign warning you that because they are a small business, that when they are busy, wait times to get food can't take a while. If you do not feel like waiting and are in a rush, this is not the place for you. Please come back when you have time to enjoy the atmosphere and the amazing food. I was telling one of the servers to please pass along my compliments to the chef and the owners. I was having a rather rough morning on our first visit. The best way I can describe the deliciousness of the food was that I went from being a little bit meh, to a strong to feeling like I was having a warm hug. I ordered the biscuits and gravy my other half ordered the berries and cream cinnamon French toast, and my little ordered the Mickey Mouse pancake with cinnamon. We came back another day and all ordered the same thing again, and it was just as amazing as the first time. The inside of the building is quite rustic. Even though you are waiting a bit for your food, there is so much to look at that time just passes by. Even in the bathroom will keep you occupied, and not just with the normal activities . The staff was amazingly friendly. On the second day, the gentleman server did not know whether the Mickey Mouse pancake should have the cinnamon bun toppings on it (you know,...because kids might start bouncing off of the ceiling), or sprinkles and whipped cream. We requested the latter and he came over and put on a tiny show for my little. The gentleman made a fun little show of putting whipped cream on Mickey and let my little decorate his own pancake. Definitely a 10/10 experience and we will be returning when we are around these parts again.
