    My partner & I were down at the wharf for Valentines Day and thought we'd top off the day with ice cream. Ice cream is her FAVORITE guilty pleasure, and you can only get Butter Pecan in an actual Ben & Jerry's store, so here we were. It was a nice day so the line was long, but we were willing to wait. It actually moved quickly. The employees scooping ice cream were serving us with a smile which is always great! We both got pints. I got the Chocolate Fudge Brownie and of course my partner got the Butter Pecan. It was a good day!

    I met Ben & Jerry at an event in CA over 30 years ago. They gave me a t-shirt when I told them ice cream is medicine. This location is at the wharf. Even if it is chilly outside, ice cream makes everything better! Plus your ice cream will melt slower! Metro is just a few blocks away. There is a parking garage nearby. If you take metro, you'll have more money for ice cream! The employees are nice. You can get a cone or a bowl. Every flavor is amazing.

    We just came from Ben & Jerry's down on the wharf. Shante I server was super friendly, very knowledgeable and very patient.

    Ice cream is good but it will be a lot better if the staff helped us out when we need it. It may be a D.C. thing for staff to just be moody or passive as we waited in line to order ice cream. It was our turn to pick ice cream and we were sampling different flavors as it's our first time in a Ben & Jerry's. But when my fiancé asked about choosing flavors, the guy just said someone will help us and proceeded to help the guy right behind us, who was of a different race than us and I can't help but feel this is a discriminatory action. I was baffled that we were skipped and I stared the guy down. There is no reason for him to be unhelpful to us. I'm not one for confrontations and we were finally helped out by another staff but this staff member really did the bare minimum with no smile and curt answers. I guess it doesn't help that there is also a huge line inside the shop on this hot day. Everything is expensive in D.C. We got a cup for $12 and you can choose 4 scoops. We got 2 scoops of mango, lemonade, and strawberry. Mango is pretty good. My fiancé likes sorbet but I'm not a fan.

    Sunday. $11 plus $2 tip. $13 total.

    5 stars for the amazing staff. But, it was $11 plus a $2 tip. $13. Would you pay $13 for a chocolate Sunday at the Wharf.

    Today is Free Cone Day at Ben & Jerry's and they were definitely ready for a crowd! Though the line appeared long, it moved very quickly. They had menus handed out to those in line so they already knew what they wanted and had plenty of scoopers! And of course, the ice cream was delicious! I was really excited to see their offerings of dairy free (oat milk), vegan, and gluten-free! Glad there are options for different dietary choices/restrictions!

    Ben & Jerry's at the D.C. Wharf offers a variety of tasty ice cream flavors in a prime waterfront setting. On sunny days, you can enjoy sitting on a water-facing bench outdoors. The staff is friendly, helpful, and provides excellent service. After exploring the area, I found it the perfect place for a treat. It offers flavors like Milk and Cookies and Chocolate Therapy, sorbets, and non-dairy options. You can also choose from waffle cones, shakes, and sundaes, all of which showcase the high quality of the ice cream.

    I recently had time to explore a little while in DC, and a charming PINK building caught my eye…read morewhile taking a walk. I had absolutely no plans on buying or eating cake that day, but as a cake lover stuff happens. It was such a cute building the pastries had to be everything! It turned out to be the perfect stop. 1. The looks The building itself is so cute on the outside, and being a fan of the color pink, it instantly caught my attention. Inside, it feels less like a fast, high volume bakery and more like an intimate cake boutique. It gives small town where the owners know you by your first name. You can feel that real love was put into the space and the baking. Tasted like every ingredient was hand mixed, every cake hand frosted, and every cookie carefully hand scooped. They even served my slice of coconut cake on a real plate, which was such a cute, bourgeois touch that I loved. 2. Service The hospitality here is top-notch. On my first visit, yes you heard me! Lol! The gentleman Eric who rang me up was incredibly knowledgeable about all the different cookie and cake flavors. I ended up returning the very next day, and although he wasn't there, the other two staff members working which included Mikaela were absolutely delightful and so kind. The young lady told me her daughter loves the carrot cake as well and Mikaela said they started working there because they loved the patties so much! 3. The Cakes -Coconut Cake: This slice was so delicious, fluffy, and airy that it instantly reminded me of being a kid at holiday family meals with a fresh coconut cake on the table. -Carrot Cake: It was everything you want a carrot cake to be. It was nice and dense yet soft, with a pleasant texture from the added fruits. Definitely noticed pineapple bits! The cream cheese frosting wasn't overly thick and was so good you could eat it completely by itself. -Strawberry Cupcakes: I stole a small bite of my son's. unfortunately, this one was my least favorite. The frosting had a little chemical taste to it but it was a super cute cupcake. To answer your question, will I return? Absolutely! If you are in the DC area or planning a trip there soon, check this spot out. It truly feels like a mom and pop or pop and pop boutique. Not a bakery but a BOUTIQUE! Check them out! Tell them Anisha from Milwaukee sent you! (Not that they'd remember it just sounds cute!)

    I had to look for a last minute substitute for a birthday cake after the first option fell through…read more I scoured DC for cake options and I stumbled upon Tiered and Petite. They had many mouthwatering options on their website, however we decided on their strawberries and cream option and instead of the perseveres filling we opted for the "sorbet" option. The look: check, the cake: check, the sorbet: check, but the cream cheese filling is going to be a no forme. I'm not sure if the cream cheese filling had too much lemon juice or cream of tartar (to stabilize it) but it was definitely giving sour. As everything else was so great I would definitely consider coming back again to try their other options (4/5). FYI: they offer pickup and delivery (this starts at $20)

    We ordered the most adorable cake from Cotton and I'm still not over how cute it came out!…read more I was just hoping for something cute and trendy for the occasion, but it came out even better than I could have imagined! And not only did it look absolutely amazinggggg --truly picture-perfect--but it tasted incredible and was ginormous! It fed everyone at the party and then my office the next day! From the very beginning, Cotton was so kind, communicative, and easy to work with. The turnaround time was impressively quick, delivery was seamless, and the whole process was super simple! I couldn't recommend Tiered and Petite more!!
