After dinner at the Rusty Bucket nearby we stopped for ice cream as it was our last night in Columbus. There was a bit of a line when we arrived but it moved quickly. Salted Peanut Butter with chocolate flakes and Homemade Coffee for me and Salted Peanut Butter with Chocolate flakes and Dark Chocolate for my wife was a delightful treat after a meal. And after we were eating our ice cream the line formed outside the door. This is how popular Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream is to folks. It is some of the best ice cream we've ever had. read more

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams - Signature three scoops- root beer float, pink bubblegum, watermelon taffy - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

You might ask, Why do you like Jen's Splendid Ice Cream? Well, here comes the explanation. Founder Jeni Britton has received a James Beard award for her ice cream.. They offer as many samples as you care to try. At this visit, I tried 5 samples. The samples come on a metal spoon not wood or plastic. I appreciate the metal spoon. Second, they have 1/2 scoops. That means more samples to taste. Three, the ingredients are superior. Milk from local producers, no additives, natural fruits and plant based flavors. They have super strong flavors. Download their app for rewards before purchasing. I ordered the Bramble berry, wild berry lavender, coffee mocha and raspberry. Two half scoops for $6.70. Expensive but worth the cost to me. Sometimes you just have to pony up. The staff is friendly and efficient. Street parking and a large lot behind the business is available. Inside and outside seating. read more

What more can be said about this Columbus ice cream staple than what has already been mentioned? Well in regards to this location, here's a few notes... Parking here is limited but there is a big lot in the back. Several businesses share it so just know that you may need to find street parking depending on the time and day. They have a cute little seating area out front, which is great for people watching while enjoying your ice cream. They also offer pick up and delivery directly off their Yelp page! Along with those facts, everything else is exactly what you would expect from a Jeni's. Clean, vibrant space. Friendly and attentive staff up for giving you as many samples as you'd like. The most delicious, high quality and creative ice creams you can imagine. read more

Jeni's ice cream has unique flavors, friendly staff, and uses high quality ingredients. It is more expensive than most other ice cream, but knowing more about the ingredients they use and they seem to use sustainable packaging makes it worth it. read more

It was nice. I've never been to an ice cream shop that had small metal spoons. It made the experience for sampling extremely better. The tiny wooden scoopers ruin the taste and the tiny plastic spoons seem like a waste so this was really cool. I'm not so impressed with the shallowness of the paper cup. 2 half scoops seem pretty small for the price but the quality is great. The waffle cone was a good touch. A pint for $12 was also steep. Workers were friendly. The sit down area was great too. If I'm in town, I'll go back for sure. read more

Had a great experience at the Celebrate new flavors at Jeni's event at the Clintonville Jeni's this week. The event offered one "Signature" (3 half scoops and a waffle cone wedge) for you and one for your +1. My friend and I arrived on a Thursday evening around 7 pm. The restaurant was pretty busy when we got there and there were only two people working. Shortly after being there for a little, the line was moving quickly and two more people stepped in to help. I tried all the new summer flavors and I'm happy to say my favorite is still the Brown Butter Almond Brittle. This ice cream has Brown butter almond candy crushed into buttercream ice cream. The summer flavors that I tried were the Double Double which is Chocolate chip cookie dough swirled into a buttery brown sugar custard. Tastes like cookie dough with a side of cookie dough. I really liked the Double Double. I did not however like the Sparkling Cherry Pie and the Snow Cone Sorbet was good but too sweet. read more

This place was great! I ordered the Dairy Free Texas Sheet Cake and LOVED IT! The staff member was so friendly and we enjoyed our visit here. Thankful to have a Dairy Free option that tastes so good! there were lots of other options available (only two being dairy free though) but that's okay! read more

Went in to get a pint of ice cream. It was so busy (as expected!). A line looped around the inside, but it moves fairly fast for a place that offers sample tastings. Lol. After tasting ice cream we upped our order to FOUR pints of ice cream. Lol. She asked if we had joined the "club" we had not. A quick scan of the offer to join then club and I find I need to now download an app. Enter all my data in app then activate. This would slow down line. So.... Instead of Jeni's asking for me to just step aside a bit as I do this -she says "you can download it later, just sign up and add ponts with your receipt". Sounds easy. Flips the ipad around. Now its asking for a tip (for take out that has been prepackaged, they didnt scoop it fresh...???? ). Irritated by being rushed and that the screan wants a 18-25% tip added for "take out pints", I leave a dollar for the two bowls of ice cream we did have her actually get. (I hate feeling bullied into tipping for take out) Now the person behind me is rolling their eyes getting impatient. So feeling self conscious I hit the fastest option "no receipt" As soon as I realize my mistake I ask can you reprint my receipt please. She replies nicely "no, I dont know how now that you pushed that button" before she begins to take the next order. So I was out the 60 purch points of four pints and two bowls because I felt rushed.. Bummer! Was disappointed about that, tbo However I LOVED my bowl of ice cream. I first sulked while eating my bowl but soon found the non dairy lemon may be better than any ice cream I have ever had. Put a smile on my face. So, I guess there is that! Tip: download app for rewards "before"you arrive!!! read more

Jeni's is always a hit. I don't know that I'd drive miles to get some (there is so much good ice cream around), but I really do like it. This location has friendly staff and quick service. There is a decent sized dining area or you can take it for the road. Wild berry Lavender is my go-to, but the rainbown butter cream is awesome, and I had some of the Powdered Jelly Donut recently and also loved that. The rainbow is raspberry, key lime, and passion fruit, which was a really awesome upgrade on orange (not that I don't lover orange!). read more

Excellent Ice Cream . I bought my two grandchildren and their other grandma for ice cream and we all loved the treats. Will be back soon.

Loved the vibrant atmosphere, always packed with diverse flavors to choose, including dairy-free options. My pick milkiest chocolate in a waffle cone. Reminded me of my childhood favorite chocolate palette (malteadas). read more

Somehow hadn't been to this location and when we drove right by after Baby K said she wanted ice cream, we swung in. Didn't have the strawberry she wanted, but we got a special, jelly donut. Supposed to taste like a donut with raspberry jam inside and powdered sugar on it. She said... kinda. There are chunks of donut, apparently, and it does taste like raspberry jam. I got another special, peach with biscuit, in a waffle cone. Yum. Yum yum yum. Loads of options, all kinds of interesting flavors of good, lusciously thick ice cream. Great service. Nice inside space, though small. Nice patio. Expensive. A rare treat, but worth it once in awhile. read more

I really enjoyed the chocolate ice cream that I got. The service is always good there. And the ambiance made me feel welcomed on such a nice day. read more

If there's ever been a time when the world needs Jeni's, it's during a global pandemic. I'm so glad that, with all the craziness of life right now, we can still go out on a sunny day and grab a waffle cone with that signature salty-sweet taste and enjoy our favorite scoop of delicious, incomparable Jeni's. Jeni's tastes like summer, like normalcy, like treat yo'self! Kiddo and I love doing Jeni's for lunch or dinner once in a while on warm days. My faves have been the same for a while: Brambleberry crisp and Gooey butter cake. But I do miss all the little sample tastes of new flavors. Hopefully the samples can return soon! read more

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams - Perfect spring afternoon - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I had been to Jeni's in different location and most of their set up is pretty similar. As you entered into the store, it filled with sweetness and waffle cone aroma. Because all their waffle cone is freshly make in house. From time to time, they have collab with different theme. On their regular lineup, you can also find some unique flavors as well. I love their menu option where you can mix and match on the different flavors. read more

A Columbus staple, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams does not disappoint! I opted for a trio with three different flavors: brambleberry crisp, gooey butter cake, and blackout chocolate cake. Each flavor was an absolute delight - rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. The brambleberry crisp had a lovely tartness to it that was perfectly balanced by the sweet, buttery goodness of the ooey gooey butter cake. And the blackout chocolate cake was a chocolate lover's dream - intense, indulgent, and utterly satisfying. Bonus - accessibility to the Olentangy River Trail. We rode our bikes here on a sunny afternoon, which really added to the overall experience. 4 stars only because I wish the portions at Jeni's were a little more generous for the price. read more

I set the bar high for Jeni's. I expect great ice cream and great service, and that's what I got. The N. High Street parlor is nice because of the large parking lot behind it for everything in this small strip. There's also quite a few tables inside, easily accommodating customers when it's not super-crowded (which it wasn't that particular night). What did surprise me was that the pints for sale here were actually more expensive than what I last paid for a pint in NY about 3 months ago. In general, ice cream both at the parlors and purchased pints are going to be more expensive, but it's acceptable for the occasional decadence. read more

It's never a bad time for ice cream and Jeni's is always a first choice for us. They have a regular set of standard classics always available like Salted Caramel or Vanilla Bean, but it's the seasonal flavors that make the crowds go wild. Flavors like Everything Bagel, Butterscotch with Cocoa Nibs, or Coffee with Coconut Cream. They always have vegan options available that are so kick-ass you won't miss the dairy. It's premium ice cream so it costs more than your typical soft serve, but it's worth it. And you know what? You're worth it. read more

First of all, one of the best ice creams in the country. True and tasty ingredients, milk and cream and vegan choices now there is no other I cream brand that I enjoy more for my gourmet palette. Since my family and friends were visiting out of town, I had to insist that they try some of the best ice cream in the Midwest. We ventured to the Clintonville location after dinner and to let them enjoy the perks of Columbus living. They sampled almost everything as the crew was very helpful and kind in their search. They practically bought out the store for so many flavors are simply delicious. 5 stars of course for great service and fun fellowship. Everyone left happy and they will be coming back to scoop up some more Jeni's Ice Cream. So Clintonville, consider yourselves lucky! read more

Walked over to Jeni's after dinner, and they just released the Sunshine flavor. The staff were very friendly. I asked for a couple of different samples to try, and they explained each flavor profile. I ended up getting a waffle cone with Sunshine and Lemon Blueberry parfait. Both were very fruity, citrusy, and refreshing! read more

Very cutesie inside with great service. They even had multiple dairy free options!! Delicious!!

Wow...the Pistachio Macaron is the best flavor l have had at Jeni's. Since it has Pistachios it must be healthy (right?) The flavor is smooth tasting and paired with the White Chocolate Mint and Green Mint your tummy will say Thank you. Only negative it's limited in scoop shops for the winter. Staff were very Friendly on a chilly Friday evening. read more

Great service and great ice cream like at all other Jeni's locations in Columbus, OH! We stopped in this past weekend and tried the new buttercream birthday cake ice cream! It is SOOO good! It's super creamy, has plenty of sprinkles, and also has chunks of sheet cake inside! My daughter and I both loved it. I had a scoop inside of a waffle cone. While I typically really enjoy the waffle cone, my waffle cone this time was extremely salty. I actually didn't finish the waffle cone (once my ice cream was gone). This is not common for me! Aside from the waffle cone, we really did enjoy the ice cream! We'll continue frequenting Jeni's locations as long as they're around - SO good! read more

Amazing as always!! Stopped in for a waffle cone with one scoop birthday cake and one scoop and one scoop gooey butter cake! There's just so many great flavors to try! Ate inside, service was excellent per usually despise being very busy on a Friday night. read more

Parking can be a pain, but otherwise it's Jeni's, which means it's delicious. The shop is cute, the service is always friendly, and I like being able to sit on the benches outside to eat ice cream instead of having to drive home with a melting cup of goodness. read more

I came here with a group of friends to get one of my favorite ice creams, Brambleberry Crisp. I love the smell of the fresh waffle cones and ice cream. I recommend Jeni's if you want to try unique flavors. The prices are more on the high side, but treat yourself! I love their seasonal corn flavor, but I enjoy their frequent flavors. I got the Brambleberry Crisp, Wild Lavender, and Gooeycake. I recommend this place for a casual date, group hang out, kids, and families! There's plenty of parking and a decent amount of tables. read more

Who needs another Jeni's review? The flavors aren't going to be for everyone. I'm partial to a few - Salty Caramel, Brown Bitter Almond Brittle, Savannah Buttermint, and Roxbury Road - but I like to try other flavors too. On my most recent visit I got the Frose Rose Sorbet (very light and refreshing), the cream puff (think ice cream base with crunchy bits of cream puff inside) and Brown Butter Almond Brittle with a signature waffle cone. I could be wrong but I think the recipe for the waffle cone changed within the past two or three years. (I usually get my ice cream in a dish.) Not sure if the salt taste is more pronounced in the new recipe or if it stood out because my brown butter almond brittle was at the bottom. Customer service is always excellent. The staff is very patient with people who want to try multiple flavors. read more

We are hitting all our favorites before we move. Jeni's is one of them! They are now doing sampling again after covid. My favorite part of Jeni's is the unique flavors and vibes we get from visiting. It's such a feel good place with the orange decor and knowing the Jeni's backstory! I tried the pumpkin cake, but I opted for my favorite of Brambleberry Crisp and also Butter Cake. The Brambleberry Crisp reminds me of cobbler. My son had Golden Nectar. Each item comes with a complimentary waffle crisp. We will miss it dearly! read more

Wonderful ambitious flavor combinations. Love the tasting option. It's always a challenge to figure out what new choices to try.

Jenny splendid ice cream is the best ice cream I think I've ever had. My favorite kind is gooey butter cake. It is the absolute best ice cream ever had and they're freshly made waffle cones address the cherry on top. This ice cream shop blows every other place out of the water. It is a little bit pricey but worth every penny. read more

I've to many Jeni's and all location are great, if you see a jeni"s or look one up, do yourself a favor and go delicious. Enjoy

I love going to this store, it's as good as all the other Jeni's in terms of the ice cream. The ice cream is super creamy and they have new flavors all the time. I'm more of a fan of fruity flavors because they tend to be less sweet than the other kinds. My absolute FAVORITE and also one of their most popular flavors is the brambleberry crisp. It comes with real berries and little bites of a crispy pie crust like dough. I usually get in a double on a sugar cone or in a bowl that comes with a waffle wedge. For the second flavor, i typically choose one of the new or temporary flavors. Currently, I like getting the peach cream because it comes with little chunks of peach! I particularly like this store because the staff is superb. It's not as busy as the one in the short north so there's more time to talk to the employees. On one occasion, the employee enjoyed talking to me so much that he gave me a card for a free triple scoop of ice cream! I believe his name was Andrew, Andrew thank you so much! You made my day! I don't expect to get this wonderful opportunity all the time, but I am very grateful for it and I will never cease to stop by this store to get more ice Absolutely love Jeni's! Support local ice cream companies! Edit: he gave me another one!!! I love this man read more

Lots of cool flavored to be had here. During covid times they don't offer samples to try but we made that part of the fun. I got pumpkin cake roll and bramblbarry ice cream. Very flavorful and yummy. We came here on a pretty cold day but yummy cold ice cream on a cold day wasn't so bad. All in all I was only able to try two of their many great flavors so I'll be back when I'm in the area! read more
