One of the many locations for Jeni's Ice Cream is now right here in Grandview Heights. It's the same fantastic ice cream that has been found around Columbus for years, and is famous Nationwide. Brightly lit and inviting, this is the place to come for a cool creamy treat on a warm summer evening, as well as into the colder months of the year. If you're dining in the area and the restaurant you have visited, doesn't have desserts, or if they do have desserts and you'd rather have ice cream-this is certainly a place to come. A nice cap to an evening at the movies just down the street at Grandview Theater, a little dessert after coffee at Stauf's, or dinner at one of the local eateries, all followed by Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. You'll find many staple flavors in their repertoire, as well as some seasonal items that change up from time to time. Something for everyone, in a cone or a cup! Great for a date night. Some limited seating is available at a few tables in the front. read more

I've been to several Jeni's locations and all of them are wonderful. I stopped into this specific store when the Opaque flavor was debuted. I honestly hope they decide to permanently add it to the rotation, I loved it! Such a nice addition that they also created a coordinating waffle cone. Jeni's hands down has the best waffle cones in Columbus. I stopped in on a busy Saturday afternoon where only one employee was working and she absolutely rocked it! I wish I had caught her name, but she kept the line moving efficiently! read more

It was my first time in Columbus and this ice cream joint was recommend multiple times during my stay. I ended up ordering the peanut butter with dark chocolate and oh my gosh, was it great. I was also so pleased to see all of the allergen info listed for guests and even more delighted to see all of the fun-gluten-free options. My daughter got some buttery cake concoction and loved it. Will definitely go back the next time I'm in town. read more

The location is right across the entrance to the mall area. The line can get quite long, and there are a few tables outside and inside. The store is small, so seating is limited. From the outside, it can be hard to see the menu due to the colorful flags and lights that are kinda down low. So you have to wait until you're in the store towards the front to see the whole menus. You can taste samples and I love that they give you a metal spoon instead of a plastic one, and there's a bin to put the used spoons. The staff is friendly. They do have seasonal flavors so be out the lookout for that. They do have some other goodies by the exit door you can purchase as well. read more

Good ice cream but this location does not have very much seating. Parking is behind the building which is nice

Tried the new black ice cream, Opaque and it was delicious! Tasted like an undercooked brownie with a cherry sauce.

They have many interesting drinks but they are not actually bubble teas. I would consider them desserts. I ordered the combo menu item #2 and #9. The desserts were excellent with chewy green colored fruit, red bean and taro. This desserts were quite thick so I would ask for more ice. read more

I already loved Jenni's ice cream but hadn't been to an actual shop. That being said, I absolutely loved this place! The staff answered all my questions and let me sample several ice creams. The waffle bowls here are unmatched. I loved the wildberry lavender and Butter cake flavors the best. Note that indoor seating is limited but there's room out front. read more

Came to Jeni 's ice cream after dinner with my girlfriends. I'm not able to do dairy so I was looking for a dairy free option and they had at least 4 to 5 different dairy free choices. I got the dairy free Texas sheet cake. I would highly recommend. Prices were a little expensive 5.25 for a single scoop, But the five dollars was definitely worth it. They are still doing no sampling of the flavors but it is nice that you can get two or 3 different flavors for your 5.25. There is a small section outside for some outdoor seating. Definitely a great spot to go after dinner with friends or family. read more

Ordered: golden nectar and lavender ice cream Jeni's flavors are always so unique! Love trying the limited edition/seasonal flavors. Golden nectar was a new one but so good. The worker kinda described it as chai-ish and other stuff that confused me but I just love that the description is something like the taste of the last rays of summer or smth wow poetry read more

A Columbus staple. I rarely can pass up a chance for Some Jeni's. Always high quality ingredients with fantastic service. I recommend the trio and trying three different flavors. The Bramble berry crisp and the classic vanilla are my two personal favorites. read more

I always love seeing and trying all the new and unique ice cream flavors that Jeni's has to offer. They are so bold and clever with their creations that you can't help but want to try them all. The minute you walk into the shop you're immediately whisked away into scents of freshly made waffle cones and sweet ice cream. And it's so good. read more

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams - Gooey butter cake, coffee with cream, pineapple upside down cake - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Located in North Market - indoor food court and market, this is such a delicious ice cream find! They offer a large variety of unique flavors ranging from rosé sorbet, to honey vanilla, gooey butter cake and sweet potato torched marshmallow - it was hard to pick 2 flavors! You are allowed to sample as many flavors as you want! Each flavor had a strong pronounced taste without being too overwhelming. Texture was creamy without melting too fast. Service can be a little slow since they only had 2 people working. One was making cones while the other was doing everything else. So it can be slow if a line starts to form. Overall, loved Jeni's and their flavors and quality of ice cream. read more

Yes Yes and more YES. PARTTTAAAAAAYYYYYY on your mouth. An experience that inspires imagination and connection. It is incomparable to 'just other ice creams'.. how dare you for even thinking 'just another ice cream parlor. Beyond the rainbow lays a dream land with creamy cherry streets, salted caramel waterfalls, Boston cream pie ponds, Brown butter almond brittle bridges over Honey Bean Vanilla rivers. No? Yes!! One taste and you can never go back. Took some Aussie friends of mine here, the place was empty so we got reallllly lucky, but we tried alllllllllll the flavors. Had a great time with the employees. Thank you Short North peeps! I can't get anymore serious then this - that I am truly a believer that Ice cream makes EVERYTHING BETTER. read more

I got the trio ($6) and split it with a friend. We got the darkest chocolate, gooey butter cake, and salty caramel. All three were delicious but I loved the gooey butter cake! Ice cream is smooth, creamy, and very flavorful. read more

Basic weird trying to hard to be good mediocre ice cream shop not that satisfying and too many unnecessary weird flavors don't waste you're money on this store unless you like over priced basic not so great selection of ice cream read more

I'm not gonna lie...Jeni's is one of my favorite ice cream stores and I haven't had many ice creams on par with their quality in my life. Their ice cream is always so creamy, and that honestly baffles me. How can ice cream be so smooth and melt so beautifully in my mouth? Their permanent flavors are solid and my favorites would have to be cream puff and the dark chocolate. I always make sure to try the limited time flavors when they are available and am rarely disappointed. Make sure you try all the flavors you want! The workers will gladly give you a bit of the flavors of your choice on a small metal spoon. The only thing I would suggest is to make the ice creams less sweet so the flavors can shine through even more. That might be a personal preference though... Unfortunately, Jeni's is quite expensive. Having to pay nearly $5 for two half scoops of ice cream feels a bit exorbitant every time, but I guess the quality matches the price. Parking can also be a bit difficult in the evenings when literally every spot in the parking lot behind this strip is taken...but it really depends on your luck I guess. Tip: Go on your birthday for free ice cream! You can even get a trio. ;) Ice Cream Quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 4/5 read more

Oh, Jeni's, you are truly splendid as your name states! This is one of their smaller shops, and there isn't much seating inside. There is street parking in front (tricky), but there is a large lot in the back that usually has plenty of parking. Inside they have a freezer case behind the counter with pre-packaged pints as well as the usual ice cream case with all the flavors displayed. Ask for a complimentary sample of as many as you want. The sample is served on a metal spoon (classy!). The staff were fairly friendly. One staff member was very smiley and friendly while the other was friendly but in a more stoic way. The quality of their ice cream is out of this world. Absolutely top notch quality ingredients and flavors ranging from standard to unique. This time we tried the lemon-blueberry sorbet, the cream puff, and the cookies 'n' cream flavors. All I can say is WOW! The lemon-blueberry was chock full of real blueberries and a perfect level of lemony tartness. The cream puff had a very mild, custardy flavor with soft chunks of pastry throughout. The cookies and cream had large and awesome cookie chunks in a marvelously creamy and chocolatey ice cream. It was all served in a modern square to-go dish with a triangle wafer cookie. If you want another flavor recommendation go for the Riesling Poached Pear Sorbet. Out of this world! Tip: If you come on your actual birthday (like I did) a trio of three mini scoops dish will be yours with Jeni's compliments! A very generous offering. Jeni's is a Columbus original that has spread across the country, and it's absolutely delicious, extraordinarily high quality, awesome ice cream! Run, don't walk, to your nearest Jeni's today and try some! read more

My favorite ice cream! Love most of their flavors! Love that you get to try all the new seasonal ones! It's a must try if visiting C-bus

The more I go to Jeni's the more impressed I am. They used to not have any dairy free options. I remember the first time I visited Jeni's at the Short North location and they had one vegan option. Now, they got a handful of dairy free choices! I tried the almond milk cortado. I saw the sign outside advertising it as my friend and I walked to the door. We came around 7:15 on a Friday and there was a line inside. A few people were sitting outside. It was mostly families, groups of friends, and a few couples who came in. I got the scoop of almond milk cortado in a cone. So yummy!! My friend got salted Carmel but regretted her choice as the waffle cone made the ice cream taste even saltier. My ice cream seemed to have a different texture than regular ice cream. It didn't have the same creaminess or smoothness as dairy ice cream. Still good, but I have a hard time describing the experience well. It was different for sure. It didn't melt as quickly as my friend's did. I thought that was interesting. My other two friends came in about ten to fifteen minutes later and shared a scoop of honey vanilla and another of brambleberry. They melted fast! Again, there must be some sort of element that makes dairy ice cream melt quickly. Unless I just ate my ice cream too fast? Anyway, service was good! They're always attentive as to who is walking in no matter how busy the counter gets. You can ask for water from behind the counter as well. It's free. We sat inside by the window. It was the only table in there aside from a long bar table attached to one side of the wall. Love it here! read more

Pretty good ice cream with a lot of interesting flavors. Here's what I tried: Sweet potato with marshmallow- some weird savory notes and the soggy marshmallow texture threw me off a little Dark chocolate truffle - solid flavor, had a nice coconut aftertaste (it's made with coconut milk) Wild berry lavender - perfectly sweet, aromatic and multifaceted (ended up getting this as one scoop) Cognac Gingerbread - very strong cognac, not much gingerbread, not my thing Pistachio honey - very good pistachio flavor (this was my other scoop) Overall a fun experience, some flavors are hit or miss but if you try enough you'll find one you like read more

It's certainly rare to discover a hotspot in Grandview for the first time, and be greeted by such kind and knowledgeable workers as Poncho and Josh. I was lured in by the intoxicatingly mesmerizing scents from the neighborhood sidewalk. To my luck, Poncho sold me on (what was to be) one of my new favorite ice creams. Thank you Poncho. & Cheers Grandview! read more

I had the three half scoops at Jeni's for $6.25. I tried the cheesecake, the chocolate peanut butter, and the gooey butter cake. I really enjoy this ice cream, and I think it tastes great. However, the price is too much for me. $6.25 on 3 half scoops is just not doing it for me... but the taste brings up the quality! It's just very expensive to come often enough. read more

If you're in love with the consistency of ice cream itself along with unique flavors that bring your mouth alive, you're going to love Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. You may not like the price or the parking, but the ice cream itself is so luxuriously smooth that it's amazing. PROS: -Luxurious ice cream. It's so great and so smooth. They definitely focus on getting the base ice cream just perfect. Their Butterscotch flavor was a dream! -Ice cream flights! I've never seen this before! Just like beer flights - but for ice cream! Try tinier sizes of a ton of different flavors. So awesome! -A little ice cream goes a long way. They sell in scoops because you honestly don't need a ton of ice cream with their consistency. It's very, very smooth and very sugar-craving-filling. It's a very rich ice cream that doesn't leave you going "I need moreeeeeee". You just feel more than happy with what you've had. -Environmentally-friendly. At least, as much as possible. Taster spoons are metal spoons that are washed and reused - like restaurant dinnerware. To-go bowls and spoons are compostable. They sell boxed water and other eco-friendly drink options. There has definitely been a focus on trying to make their business environmentally friendly. -Complimentary feminine products in the unisex, single-stall restroom. It's definitely an odd point to be happy about, but when most places charge, it's really nice to see it just blatantly available for customers. -Very friendly staff. They were happy to answer our questions, and when I didn't know what I wanted, she had some pretty amazingly explanations to give me too. It's clear that the staff knew their ice cream and how it was made - and was really friendly about helping me choose some. CONS: -Located in a busy urban street. Street parking or some nearby public lots (which were ridiculously full at 3PM on a weekday) seem to be your parking options. This doesn't make it a simple "in and out" visit. -Definitely not cheap. Two scoops came out around $10. Honestly, even those two scoops was well more than enough (and very "sugar'ed out"), but it definitely seems way more expensive than your average ice cream places. -Ice cream focuses on the "enjoy unique flavors of really luxurious ice cream". Which isn't bad by any means. But Jeni's isn't really where you go if you're looking to have 6 toppings added to your ice cream. It's definitely a focus on the ice cream itself. I'm a topping girl, so it was a little disappointing. The lack of toppings really helps you focus more on the really nice quality of their ice cream, though. Just depends on your ice cream preferences. My tablemate always orders plain ice cream no matter what ice cream shop we're in - so Jeni's is the ultimate dream for him. Base ice cream that tastes like heaven? Heck yeah. I just miss my topping explosion. -Indoor seating is a little slim. Just a couple of tables. Not so bad during Spring months, but during sweltering summer months where I'd want to be near AC, this would probably be frustrating. They have a lot more outdoor seating than indoor. read more

Located on a lovely street surrounded by small shops, Jeni's has a real vibe. One look at the menu and your mind is spinning wondering which flavors to stack your crispy cone with! Taking COVID seriously, Jeni's isn't allowing taste testing, but honestly don't think it's needed! All the flavors are well formulated and drool worthy. As a group of 4 we tried banana cream pie, gooey buttercake, almond brittle, and a few more. The best by far was the gooey buttercake, but you can't go wrong here! read more

Jeni's is a Columbus staple. Consistent quality. Delicious and unique flavors. Most recent trip I ordered the golden nectar and cold brew with coconut cream. The golden nectar had a light comforting, familiar flavor. The cold brew with coconut cream was good, but I would have preferred a stronger coffee flavor. Some of the flavors that I wanted were sold out... guess that means I'll have to go back ‍ and samples are not being offered at this time. All employees and most customers were masked. There's an extended Jeni's patio area out front which is perfect for relaxing, people watching, and enjoying ice cream. read more

4.0 Stars Location Overview: This fancy ice cream shop can be found on Grandview Ave by Staufs Coffee. The inside was very homie, clean and hipster. Customer Service: So thankful to the two servers here, as I was so excited to try EVERY SINGLE ICE CREAM they had. They were more than happy to allow me to do so. They explained what all the ice creams contained and what was their most populars. Quality/Quantity: The quality of the ice cream was pretty freaken good! The waffle sheets were so crunchy and sweet. Perfect to go with the ice cream. The quantity was your average sized scoops. Cool thing is they do half scoops so you can get more than one ice cream and it's still the same size as a single scoop for the same price. Side Notes: Interesting flavors, check it out with some friends!! read more
