    Strawberry shortcake parfait? Yes please! Delicious strawberry jam with whipped cream and gooey butter cake decadence! Cute, cheerful interior! Service was fast and friendly- great place for a sweet treat!

    I really do love Jeni's and their ice cream truly is nothing short of splendid! On this particular visit I indulged in one of their seasonal specials I believe - the triple layer cake, which included their ooey gooey cake ice cream, lemon curd sorbet and bramble berry ice cream. Talk about a perfect summer combo! It was delicious! My family also indulged in their ooey gooey cake, which the team member mentioned was their most popular flavor right now. I am not usually into that type of flavor, but it was so buttery and delicious, not as sweet as cake batter, which is what I initially anticipated. It came in at about $30 for three of us, so not the cheapest, but still splendid!

    Jeni's consistently is one of the best ice cream spots. It's always soo hard to choose what to get here since all the flavors are so good but maybe it's a plus there's usually always a line here so you have more time to think what you want to Get. One of my favorite colors is the Darkest Chocolate and brambleberry crisp... incredible. Jeni's is my go to for ice cream!

    Great place to stop and have ice cream. They have such unique flavors and you can try anything you want. They have a specialty flavor now called opaque which was a super rich dark chocolate style ice cream. The service is always great. 10/10, I love stopping at Jeni's after a dinner date.

    Stopped by to try their current Splendid Hour - For the entire month of December, visit any scoop shop before 5 p.m. and enjoy $2 off a L'affogato (aka ice cream topped with cold brew). Paired doubly chocolate with peppermint white chocolate - so very good! The staff was amazing as always. They answered questions on ice cream pairings and showed me how to sign up for reward points.

    If you know Jeni's, then you know it's real good ice cream. And if you don't know Jeni's, then you're gonna wanna try them out. Innovative flavors you won't find anywhere else keep me coming back as their menu rotates through the seasons. You can purchase pints, though I usually stop in for a scoop. They also have great birthday rewards, I got the creation in my photo for free the week of my birthday!

    I like to hate on Jeni's because their prices are very steep for ice cream, but I can't deny that their ice cream is good. There is almost always a line, which is a testament to why they deserve *some* hype. Their flavors are interesting, unique, and most of them are just really delicious. Some of my favorite flavors are Gooey Butter Cake, Buttercream Birthday Cake, and Salty Caramel. I've also tried their Milkiest Chocolate and Salted Peanut Butter, both of which you can't really go wrong with. But honestly, the biggest tip is to just sample everything you're interested in until you find the one you want. They are always SUPER friendly and willing to let you try as many samples as you want without feeling bad. When it comes time to actually order, the fact that they give half scoops is a win for me. Their scoops are on the smaller end, so you don't get overly full or sick but can still try 2-3 flavors (depending on what size you get).

    I was lucky enough to come across Jeni's while searching for a dessert spot open late following a show at the Grand ole Opry. Jeni's did not disappoint! My only disappointment that night was that the banana cream pudding and dark chocolate truffle flavors were offered only by the pint (they did allow me to taste test them however, the service is so friendly!). There is ample indoor seating for a cool night or hot afternoon and a parking lot to make a quick stop convenient. Now that I'm back home on the west coast I did find their prepacked pints at Safeway(for $9.99).

    Visited Oct 30, 2023. This Jeni's location is in East Nashville. A fast growing chain creamery across the country. Due to their consistency and the many flavor options available, they're my number one choice for ice cream! This location in particular has one of the larger indoor seating areas, great for groups. Inside is well lit and has the same signature white and black floor tiling. Service here is great, I've not had any bad experiences. Employees are friendly + helpful & allow customers ample amount samples to taste! My recent go-to, are their new L'Affogato combos, For my parents and guardians, there are two gender neutral restrooms, one of the two has a changing table. There is parking, but it's split between paved (the upper preferred half) and graveled (the lower half, will have to take the stairs up).

    I took my son for a treat and since we were on the East side, we swung by Jeni's. I was worried at first because parking on the East side can be non existent but Jeni's shares a large, free parking lot with other stores. Service was excellent and I sampled lots of ice creams before settling on the cherry pie and the snow cone ice creams. It's amazing how spot on they are with the flavors. Jeni's is pricey for ice cream but they're absolutely worth it!

    Super great place. Wide variety of flavors and high quality too. A bit expensive but would definitely go again. Highly recommend visiting if you're in town or haven't been yet. The place was clean and super well put together. Service was great and they let us taste a few different flavors.

    Tasty ice cream in the LGBTQ neighborhood! They made their waffle scone there so as soon as you walk in you can smell that buttery smell, the staff were very nice and welcoming, there were 10+ flavors you can choose from.

    Eclipse special flavors!
    Kelly L.

    I always request a stop at Jeni's when I'm in a city with a scoop shop, and it never disappoints. We stopped in today and they had four cosmic-themed flavors to celebrate the solar eclipse on April 8th. The shop even had stars hanging from the ceiling, a star-themed playlist playing in the background, and free eclipse glasses to boot. Branding was on point! I had a few samples, the kind lady behind the ice cream case said I could have as many as I wanted and if there hadn't been a line behind me I probably would've spent another 20min sampling everything. I'm a sucker for specials and got three of the eclipse flavors- Supermoon, Nebula Berry, and Cosmic Bloom- in a waffle bowl ofc bc this is literally the only ice cream shop where I won't deny myself the waffles. Nebula Berry and Cosmic Bloom packed a fruity flavorful punch. Supermoon had floral notes paired with a cereal milk flavor. It's a treat every time.

    Jeni's ice cream is one of the finest in the city. They always have a mix of traditional flavors…read morelike brownie batter, cookie dough, chocolate, and some whimsical ones like Hibiscus chili and Goat cheese red chili, and I like to dabble between both. Their ice creams are creamy and naturally flavored. I have tried the Brambleberry Crunch, which is one of my favorites. Their Darkest Chocolate ice cream is also delicious and decadent. But the Hibiscus Chili was the most underrated flavor. I think it deserves a lot more hype. The ice cream shop at this location can get very busy, but the service is extremely quick. The team at Jeni's is always patient with me, even when I am confused with all their range of flavors. I particularly love how the shop smells of baked waffle cones.

It's long, it's inevitable, and trying to fight it is a rookie mistake. Because when ice cream is this profoundly good, crowds happen. Step two: Don't panic. The crew behind the counter operates with the high-speed efficiency of a pit crew, yet somehow maintains the absolute patience of saints while you undergo an existential crisis deciding on flavors. My personal blueprint for success was all about contrast. I engineered a double-scoop masterpiece: a heavy, deeply decadent, unapologetic chocolate base, perfectly countered by a lighter, delicate second scoop to balance the universe. It was an elite flavor pivot. Delicious doesn't even cover it. Meanwhile, my wife absolutely devoured her fruit-forward flavors with a speed that felt slightly competitive. Total sensory overload in the best way possible. I'm giving this place a flawless five stars, mostly because I have to, but also because I am currently stalking the freezer aisle of my local Publix like a person possessed, trying to hunt down pints to replicate this high until I can get back to Nashville. Do your tastebuds a favor. Just get in line.

I did appreciate they gave me 2 extra cups so I was able to easily divide it for my 3 kids. The ice cream itself was fine, but nothing particularly memorable. Unfortunately, there was a noticeable rancid oil smell inside the shop, which detracted from the experience. There is plenty of indoor seating, but the space lacks much ambiance or character. On a nice day, the outdoor area is definitely the better option. One downside is parking. Much of the street parking in 12 South has recently been changed to permit-only, which is a huge bummer. There are a few spots directly in front of the shop, but your best bet is probably parking near Sevier Park and walking over. Overall, it was okay, but given the price and the experience, I wouldn't go out of my way to return.

While a friend was in town and on the 4th of July where the area was far less busy we made the trip over there! The seasonal ice cream was peach - which is one of my favorite summer flavors! I thought the ice cream was good, I really loved the pickle dip for the fries on the side, and I got just the plain salted fries which were also good. However, as a place that does just fries and ice cream I expected the fries to be more than just good. Maybe getting a flavor would have improved them but I think the basic fry should stand out on its own. We had arrived shortly after opening the the grease from the fryer kinda filled the space as well, which wasn't the most appetizing smell but it's hard with a mostly open kitchen. The employees were really kind and the food came out quickly! I enjoyed my experience overall, but I think I had bigger expectations for the fries in my head than in reality.
