    Love me some Jeni's! We need one in Mableton & Smyrna, GA I get the BROWN BUTTER ALMOND BRITTLE with the waffle cone! Masterpiece. Jeni's can do no wrong Service was prompt. Very sweet young lady took my order And it's tucked in the perfect spot for you to enjoy & people watch now that's an ambiance

    After a great dinner at Hawker's, it was a no brainer to drop into Jeni's right across the courtyard. With big windows and a bright vintage style sign, it draws you in, and the smells hit you before you even open the door. They have a fairly big selection, and I landed on the Brown Butter Almond Brittle ice cream. They measure in half size scoops, so two scoops is what would be one scoop at many other ice cream shops. I got mine in a waffle bowl which they make in the shop. It had a great sweet flavor, though the bowl was a bit on the soggy side. Of course the ice cream was good, though I felt it was expensive for what you got. One scoop in a waffle bowl was $8.79. I'd have it again if I'm nearby, but not going to go out of my way.

    The place was packed. But what can you expect when the ice cream is so delicious. I love this ice cream and clearly so do others. The line was out of the store. And the shop is pretty small in the inside but there is stool seating near the window. It was very loud because it was busy but the staff was super kind, patient, and helpful.

    Best part is there's some many flavors to choose from and most of them were Gluten free which it was a PLUS!! We sample a few flavors and we end up deciding to get their Gooey Butter cake [Cream cheese ice cream layered with crumbles of vanilla cake and a swirl of caramel-butterscotch sauce] & Apple crumble cake

    Opaque, brambleberry crisp, and milkiest chocolate

    The ice cream is pretty good. Not anything super crazy but solid ice cream. I really like how you can try up to 4 different flavors in your bowl or cone. I also like that they have seasonal flavors to mix up the menu. This location in South End is great. It does get crowded but the line moves decently quick. There is a good amount of outdoor seating and it is in a cute area. The employees were nice but it's an ice cream shop so you don't have much interaction with them.

    Lemon Bar & Wildberry Lavender scoops

    Friends and I walked to this place after dinner.The smell of fresh made waffle cones is INSANE!!! I was extremely full from dinner but my friends convinced me that I had to try something. Of course, I gave in lol ‍. I ordered the lemon bar and wildberry lavender. Now, the small sample of my order that I did taste while there was amazing but my stomach was at capacity so I brought my ice cream home and can't wait to dive in it. We didn't have to wait long at all, but as we were leaving there were soooooo many people in line!!! It's worth the wait in my opinion and I'm assuming by the line so did everyone else.

    Phenomenal flavor options! Be sure to sample them because there are so many incredible choices! I LOVE their creativity in coming up with novel flavors that just simply aren't offered anywhere else. Their boldness and innovation is never disappointing. Even their sweet potato fall flavor was delicious!! (I know, it sounds gross but trust me) If you go in the evening or during the summer, expect a wait here but the line moves quickly. I recommend coming during the day and you'll move quickly through. The store is very small so you can't eat inside usually and you'll be waiting outside for most of the time which kinda stinks when trying to choose a flavor. But the inside is adorable and kept very clean once you make it inside. Good amount of seating options outside after you order. I appreciate the barstools they have immediately outside since the tables usually are full

    Bright shop with fun, creative flavors. The ice cream tastes smooth and rich without feeling heavy.

    This ice shop located on the East End of Charlotte offers a nice variety of creamy desserts. They offer so many unique choices and flavors. They also have freshly made waffle cones. I had the Dairy-free Lemon Bar in a cup, standard $6.50. It was very refreshing and delicious.

    Super cute ice cream shop with delicious ice cream! I had been wanting to try a physical location of Jeni's for awhile. I had tried a pint of their ice cream from a grocery store and it was amazing. I love how they used a divider when I ordered multiple flavors!

    Trio with brambleberry crisp, brown butter almond brittle, and gooey butter cake
    Catherine F.

    Delicious and creative ice cream flavors! I got the brambleberry crisp (i.e. oven-toasted oat streusel and a sweet-tart brambleberry jam of blackberries and blackcurrants layered throughout vanilla ice cream), brown butter almond brittle (i.e. brown-butter-almond candy crushed into buttercream ice cream), and gooey butter cake (i.e. cream cheese ice cream layered with crumbles of soft vanilla cake and swirls of made-from-scratch caramel-butterscotch sauce) in a waffle bowl. These three flavors are some of the most popular choices and made an excellent combination that was creamy, sweet, and rich. You're able to sample different flavors, and I like how they explained in detail what each flavor contains. Macy and all the workers had a great attitude, and it's cool how they make the waffle cones and bowls fresh in front of you. It makes the whole store and neighborhood smell so good.

    Sugar Cone with Rum Ball (DF) and Darkest Chocolate
    Tasnia I.

    I usually never like dark chocolate ice creams at most places because they're still so sweet but this darkest chocolate scoop was seriously one of my favorites. I like the rum scoop as well because it's like an orangey chocolate, which reminds me of those orange chocolate candies. The flavors surprisingly go so well together. The sugar cone tasted like it was seasoned??? It just seemed like it wasn't a regular overly sweet sugar cone but I have no complaints because I loved it. The line gets really long sometimes because only a few people can get in at a time and people sample the flavors. This particular location is great because there's outdoor seating and all of the stores around it make it a great spot to get dessert. The service we got was so good. The girl who took our order and gave us samples was so sweet and took her time. *EDIT* Regarding all the long line comments, the workers inside did not rush us at all for trying the different flavors so I get why the line is long.

    I clearly LOVE Jeni's, they never miss in my book! But this review is dedicated to the amazing employees at the South End location for actually being open until Midnight on Sunday night, as advertised. My boyfriend and I got a mean sweet tooth at 11:45PM on Sunday night and I was like " who's gonna be open this late on a Sunday?". Lo and behold, good old Jeni's was listed as open until midnight.... But we ALL know how some businesses say they're open until a certain time but close early if it's slow, etc. I thought for SURE Jeni's would be closed at 11:45pm on a Sunday. But when we got there it was open and the person behind the counter was ready and happy to serve us. That allow is so so appreciated! Cannot thank them enough for satisfying two big kids with a late night sweet tooth. I had the seasonal Sweet potato marshmallow brulee and it's sooooooooo good! The perfect fall flavor and I'm definitely going back for more! Jeni's you remain the GOAT!

On this particular visit, I sat on the patio, which I had never done before, but it was nice and quiet and very relaxing on a Sunday evening. I ordered the cheesecake and it was garnished with caramel popcorn, which added a nice touch to look at, but the popcorn was stale so I don't really think it was necessary, but it did make the plate look pretty. The cheesecake was delicious. Couldn't finish it all, but I took it home and finished it the next day. Our server was great. She was very attentive, friendly, and gave good suggestions.

But a good friend of mine said that they go all the time and haven't had any issues and wanted to get me to try it again. So, we went on a Saturday evening around 6ish. We didn't necessarily have any issues getting in, but the hostess did say that her security might have an issue with the shirt my friend had on, even though he was very dressed up. It made me uncomfortable and seemed threatning almost. But she let us in and everything was fine. I don't understand why Crave always acts this way. But then when I walk in I see people of non-color dressed any kind of way, casual, etc. It just really rubs me the wrong way and for it to happen to me EVERY time I go, only leads me to one conclusion... So, anyway. We were there and we ordered hookah drinks and had a good time. Our server was super sweet and chill. She really saved the visit. I had a good time, but I most likely will not be back again.

Great mouth feel, rich, but not sweet. We tried the chocolate with cookies and Oreo pieces and the mint chip. Very very tasty. Again, if they did not tell you this was dairy free, you could not tell at all. They offer tastes, you can get one or two scoops or waffle cones, or ice cream sandwiches, and I think you can ask for sprinkles. They have a friendly staff behind the counter. They are also cashless, so be sure to have a credit card here. I would definitely come back for another flavor, I was really wowed by this ice cream. If you are in Camp North End, stop in for a scoop.

So which version are customers supposed to believe? Regardless of who is saying what, the outcome is the same. They lost several customers yesterday, and we will not be returning after this experience. After talking to a lawyer, they believe this is predatory enforcement, and we will file a complaint with the North Carolina Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division and with the Better Business Bureau. Two Scoops Creamery on Central Avenue went from being one of our favorite spots to somewhere we will never return in less than a minute. We met up with a group of friends there today. Before grabbing ice cream, we briefly stopped into Sin City next door. As one of our friends was walking in, he noticed cars in the shared parking lot were actively being booted. We had been there maybe 15 minutes. Apparently, if you step into the neighboring business at all -- even if you're planning to purchase from Two Scoops immediately after -- they will boot your car and demand $275 to remove it. We spoke directly with the staff at Two Scoops and explained that we were simply meeting up and didn't realize stepping next door wasn't allowed. The response was essentially, "Too bad." There was no grace, no warning, no attempt at understanding -- just an immediate $275 penalty. It feels like an incredibly predatory and unethical practice, especially for loyal customers who intended to support the business. We didn't even stay for ice cream, and we won't be back.
