This is my top Jeni's location. I love that there is seating indoors and a restroom. The service here is always with a smile. They're always helpful and share the thoughts of the new flavors. The scoops here are on point. read more

I am not a sweets person, but Jeni's is my weakness!! I love this place. The flavors, the cones, the collabs recently - everything about it 10/10. Great place for a date night and walk around Noda. Friendly staff and delicious ice cream. What more could you ask for?! read more

As an ice cream lover, Jeni's was a hit! I tried so many flavors but landed on the Gooey Butter Cake and the Buttercream Birthday Cake. I love that it smells like baked pastries inside. They do prepare fresh waffle cones and they even let me try it out. I definitely recommend the ice cream! It is flavorful and rich! Honestly they have so many great flavors. I was Bramble Crisp flavor too! It was so good but I really couldn't do 3 scoops. Service is excellent and they let you try multiple flavors. read more

This small ice cream shop has a lot of unique flavors to appeal to a variety of palettes. The staff was very friendly and did not rush us whatsoever. They allow customers unlimited samples and were very eager to help us. I tried the milkiest chocolate and buttercream birthday cake ice creams, both of which had an amazing flavor profile and left me smiling. The only downside I could see, was prices that were slightly over your average ice cream shop. Overall, would highly recommend this shop for a quick treat or late night snack! read more

I love all of Jeni's flavors, but Gooey Butter is my all-time favorite (and also their best seller). I like how the brand innovates with new flavors, though I'm not super pleased with their latest rewards program. read more

Went here after a nice dinner in noda and there was no line. Idt I've ever seen a Jeni's with no line. The employees were friendly and let me try a few different flavors. I ended up getting birthday cake and pistachio macaron ice cream which were absolutely delicious. I typically think Jeni's is overhyped but a week later and I still think about how good those ice cream flavors were! read more

Fantastic and friendly service every time. The flavors are some of the best I've had and it's become a reoccurring stop for myself and my sisters. read more

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams - Signature - brableberry crisp and butter cake - in a waffle cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

My favorite ice-cream spot in Charlotte! This Jeni's specifically is my favorite location 'cause majority of the time when I'm in Charlotte I'm usually in the NoDa area, and I just love the ice-cream mural! I LOVE the Texas Sheet cake flavor but on my recent visit it was unavailable. No biggie - I'm always down to try new flavors. So this time I tried the dark chocolate and tahini oat chocolate cookie. The dark chocolate is delish and the tahini oat is an interesting flavor but it's not bad! It's not too sweet and there's still the taste of milk chocolate w/ the oat texture. read more

Eat ice cream first! Those are words to live by. My friends and I came to this neighborhood for beers and food and we knew we wanted to try Jeni's. When we were down by another Jeni's off the train line the evening before, there was a line down the block. Being impatient New Yorkers, we don't like to wait so when we walked by this Jeni's and saw there wasn't a line, we marched right in and got some ice cream before we went for beers and dinner. They had a lot of flavors and when we got there, the lady behind the counter was flying solo so she was scooping like crazy. I liked my ice cream. It was really good but I'd heard so much about Jeni's that I was expecting a transcendental experience. I didn't experience that, but I can confirm it's darn good ice cream. There are seats outside of this location and a surprisingly sharp-edged kids play area (seriously, they have these cubes that kids were playing on and they seemed a little risky to me). By the time we left and headed down the block to Wooden Robot for beers, there was a line out the door so I'll remind you, if you want ice cream, just go ahead and get it if you don't see a line. read more

Ice cream was delicious! Service was great. More seating would have been ideal. I had the Coffee with Cream and Sugar and Gooey Butter Cake. It really was good..but the value not so much. They promote "half scoop so you can try more" but the price is in line with what I pay for larger scoops elsewhere. I'd go back, just know what you are getting is good to know. read more

Delicious! Only a few vegan/dairy free choices (the Lemon Curd was lovely!), but lots of options for those without ice cream restrictions. Slightly off North Davidson but worth walking the extra two blocks. read more

Great with the fun #happystripeswall as you walk up and The smell of freshly made waffle cones hits you as you open the door. And you are in heaven. This space has the most flavors of the Charlotte locations, as well as other products and pints available to order. They have tables and some fun blocks/chairs to sit on as you enjoy your ice cream. Be sure to check out their dairy free and seasonal flavors!! read more

Perfect name for a perfect ice cream parlor! We tried to visit many times in the past but it seems like our timing was off or we were rushing to a show at DPAC or the Carolina theater. Now we make Jeni's part of our trip. On our first visit, we met Jeni and tried a number of items. The parlor is clean, the service warm and friendly, and samples are always an option! They offer dairy, vegan, and non-dairy items on the menu. There are regular flavors and special ones always available. They will help you choose flavors and let you know if they work together or not. It's not inexpensive but it's so very, very fresh! Cup, cone, or waffle cone - the choice is yours - one scoop or two (or more!) We love Jeni's! read more

I love that this ice cream shop values quality over quantity. I get their kids or their "single" (which is actually two small scoops) and it is just perfect. The ice cream is rich and delicious and it's not too much. My favorite flavors are the dark chocolate and the coffee.

The inside was nice and seemed like a perfect spot to sit and chill out with friends. It was also in a fairly beautiful area.The "server" was kind and assisted me with picking out the flavors.I had a combination of the blueberry johnny cakes and the gooey butter cake.The taste combination was a perfect balance of salty and sweet.The ice cream was delicious, however it was quite pricey and not worth the purchase for what I got. read more

Always a good idea to hit up Jeni's, but even more so when you're having a rough day! Super friendly staff, quick service and surprisingly good music lol Dropped in after a rough day to cheer myself up and this was the perfect spot. Grabbed my fav flavors brambleberry crisp, salted caramel and strawberry *insert drool emoji*. And of course had to top it off with the waffle chip, yum! Love Jeni's! They never miss! read more

I've always wanted to try Jeni's Ice Cream and while in Charlotte we finally had the chance. Hubby and I shared a waffle bowl with 3 different flavors. Darkest chocolate - simple, smooth and very chocolatey. Green mint chocolate chip - not my style but hubby liked this one. Minty with a good amount of chips throughout. Gooey butter cake - the best flavor of the 3. Sweet and caramely. I did wish there were more cake pieces in this one. Overall, good quality ice cream and fresh, crunchy waffle bowl. I definitely would give them another try and pick different flavors. read more

3 star review for Jeni's?! Hear me out... Are the flavors unique and the quality good? Yes. My beef with Jeni's is the portion size, price, and topping offerings. Two HALF scoops for nearly $7?! I'm sorry, what? If this was small batch, sustainable ice cream from a local goat or something that would make sense. It's not...it's a boutique national ice cream chain. I could get 4x the ice cream (or more) for the same price at Two Scoops AND I would be supporting a local biz. I can't help but feel ripped off every time I go here, which at this point will not be by my choice. Lastly, not having any toppings besides sprinkles is a lame ass cost cutting measure IMO. read more

Brambleberry surprised me! I normally don't like fruity dessert... this was well done!! Sweet and quick service despite the long line.

Saturday evening, 11pm. Tiny scoops, they stopped making waffles cones, no hot fudge. $14.00 for me and a friend-2 cups, 4 tiny scoops. Never again. read more

I came here for the first time last week along with my daughter, my friend and my friend's daughter. I asked the staff members for a recommendation that was the closest thing to Butter Pecan which happens to be my absolute favorite ice cream flavor. They suggested I ordered the Brown Butter Almond Brittle, which I and it was delicious. This location is small and does get crowded very quickly especially if the outside weather is very warm. We sat outside and enjoyed our ice cream, my friend and her daughter live out of state and probably won't be back anytime soon but my daughter and I will definitely come back in the near future. read more

Flavors or not your typical run of the mill, but they are delish. U can sample whatever u want before committing to anything. Also pro tip....if you go on your bday and show your id, you get a free scoop which is what I did. I got the brown butter almond brittle and man was it delish! Highly recommend! Staff was sweet and very knowledgeable telling you what was in each ice that you wanted to try. I'm sure I will be wearing them out when summer comes lol read more

The Jeni's in Noda is surprisingly my favorite location so far. Don't get me wrong, the south end location will always be OG but...it's ALWAYS crowded. Anyways, my husband and I came here recently to get a few pints to go, and waited in line because we weren't sure which ones to get. After waiting in line for about 10 minutes (which felt long in the moment), I realized there were only 2 people working and everyone wants to taste multiple types so the wait made sense. After trying a few samples, we decided on 'Honey Vanilla Bean' and 'Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip'. Both were so stinking delicious. I know you're thinking...honey vanilla bean? That is the most basic ice cream I could have gotten. But, there's something about simple flavors that get me. It was a perfect hint of sweetness with the honey. After buying pints from here, we found out there's Jeni's pints in stores like Harris Teeter and Publix (except those could possibly generate frost on the top after being in the freezer for a long time). I doubt the pint would last that long in our freezer, so will get it from the bigger stores next time. The pints in store are $12 and wholesale, it's $8. Definitely recommend those 2 flavors though! read more

I've loved Jeni's since I was in college at Ohio State. Many ice cream places cater to chocolate lovers (not me), but Jeni's has unique non-chocolate flavors too. This was my first time coming to this location since the Yelp event when it first opened. I've been trying to get my hands on the Pumpkin Cake Roll ice cream since last year, but every fall when I try to get it, they're sold out. This time, I was in luck. I picked up a pint to go. I sampled a little bit of it and it's quite good (as expected). I also thought I would try their new banana cream pudding ice cream. I wanted a pint, but they were running low and couldn't do one. They were nice enough to give me a complementary scoop though. I thought it was pretty good. I'm not usually a big fan of their dairy free flavors, but I think this is one of the better ones texture wise. If you've never been to Jeni's, I'm not sure where you've been for the last couple of years, but you should fix that ASAP. read more

Was recommended to come here from a local couple for their creative menu and I figured it would be similar to van Leeuwen. I ordered the trio for $6 which is extremely worth it! I went with the coffee with sugar and cream, Wildberry lavender, and pineapple upside-down cake. I can't say I was a fan of any of them. They were a tad too sweet to my liking vs true flavor. read more

Always solid. Great service. They'll let you try anything ahead of time, and it's consistently good.

I've been coming Jeni's since they only had one location and I still love it! The fresh made waffle cones are to die for... you smell them as soon as you walk into the store. There are different flavors for every taste bud. My favorite is the brambleberry crisp and the brown butter almond brittle so of course I get one of each every time. Though there is always a bit of a line, the service is great and they get you moving quickly. It's always a great treat! read more

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams - Waffle cone with two scoops - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

For starters... you can pick up these ice creams from Jeni's at many local supermarkets. While they might be $6 per pint at the grocery stores, they are more expensive at their local shops. But the ice cream is excellent. I tried the Gooey Butter Cake, Brown Butter Almond Brittle, and Goat Cheese with Red Cherries. All of which were great! But fair warning, these are not regular ice cream scoops. They are a little larger than a golf ball, so it's quite pricey for what you get. The service was top-notch and overall we enjoyed our first trip to a Jeni's. read more

I don't even know where to start! It was 20 degrees outside and I wanted some ice cream! I've never ate at Jenni's before so my expectations were just like every other Ice cream shop. I was so surprised with everything! From the staff, service and environment. I sampled about 4 flavors on this tiny metal spoon and that is when I knew this was a boujee ice cream shop. The flavors were unlike anything I have ever had. It was light, bold, fresh, clean and creamy! WOW! Everything tasted as if it was just made! I sat down to eat every scoop like a delicate little dessert. I later told the worker this was the best ice cream I have ever eaten. ILL BE BACK read more
