    I love stopping by here. The space is always clean and everyone is always friendly. I do wish they offered more vegan options as there's usually two or so offered and they do not rotate in flavors as often. An insulated mini pint holder would also be awesome!

    My friend and I came here for an afternoon pick me up. I ordered the berry sundae special they had that day. It was very good, and the person who helped us was pretty friendly. The location has some seating in the front to enjoy your ice cream. Parking can be difficult here too as it's mostly street parking, but worth checking out.

    3 scoops: Texas Sheet Cake, Wildberry Lavender (hidden beneath the two) and Wedding Cake

    Recently had the chance to stop by and try some scoops for a Yelp event. I got a scoop each of Burnt Orange Dreamsicle, Tahini Oat Chocolate Cookie, and the Double Dough in a waffle bowl. Their waffle bowls are on the savory side and I actually like that because they complement the sweetness of the ice cream so well. Burnt Orange Dreamsicle was tangy and creamy, and tasted just like orange wafers. Tahini Oat Chocolate Cookie had a heft to it and the addition of soft cookies made it taste more like a dessert to me. I was pretty sure that the Burnt Orange Dreamsicle would be my favorite but boy was I wrong! It was actually the caramel flavor from the brown sugar of the Double Dough that blew me away. The best thing about Jeni's is their free water dispenser. I have personally not seen it anywhere else. Like how genius is that because I am always super thirsty after having anything sweet. As usual staff was super welcoming and polite.

    Jenis is such a fun place to get ice cream! The servers encourage you to try different flavors. They're very welcoming and friendly. The ice cream is super good! The basic flavors are available along with some unique ones. The darkest chocolate is one of my favs. Seasonal flavors are added several times a year. The best part is trying the new flavors. Soda is also available The space is bright with a big front window. The window has a counter with seating for a street view. There is also table seating. Merchandise is also available.

    When Jeni's came to the neighborhood I heard tons of people raving about it, so I gave it a try. The first time I tried the flavors I was pretty happy about it. I was really intrigued by the butter cake flavor which was pretty good. The moment I walked in, I can smell the waffle cones being made. I also appreciate the clearly labeled allergy details. My little one who is an ice cream fan thoroughly enjoys the flavors she's picked. While Jeni's is not my favorite ice cream parlor, it has a good offering and ambiance.

    Jeni's on Frankford Avenue just off Girard is another superlative ice cream queue where you can sample their wares to your heart's content, and walk away with any number of full or half scoops of their multitude flavors. It is bright and cheery, and with long lines on any hot day in Philadelphia. We stopped in and after waiting briefly to move up in queue ordered the Burnt Orange, Sour Cherry Pie and Bamblewood Crisp for me and a single of the Sour Cherry Pie for the offspring. While the young'n slurped his on the drive home, I waited until I was relaxing in the easy chair to enjoy my triple creams. They were all exemplary. Loved the actual burnt orange flavor, sour cherries and mixed berry crunch. Each was distinct, moderately sweet and creamy to the maxx. Even the natural colors were a pleasure to behold. This Jeni's is the perfect location for a moveable dessert being so close to the many food opportunities in the immediate neighborhood. Street parking was not an issue on this Sunday late afternoon, and even the stroll from one place to the others was enjoyable even in the super heated early July weather. Lick cool to be cool.

    This was a cute place to get ice cream at. They had nondairy ice cream options too such as lemon bar and blueberry, lemonade, watermelon flavor. Love the chalk board too so adorable inside.

    Trio with milk chocolate, homemade banana bread, and brown butter almond brittle

    I've been enjoying Jeni's ice cream for many years, and I quite enjoyed this location as well! The staff is always helpful, giving suggestions if you have questions, and friendly in providing samples to try. This time I had tried the trio with milk chocolate, homemade banana bread, and brown butter almond brittle. I enjoyed the milk richness of the milk chocolate without being overly sweet as sometimes milk chocolate can be, and I particularly enjoyed the brown butter almond brittle with a great base ice cream with fun crunches of the almond brittle. The homemade banana bread was good too, although I personally am just less a fan of soft chewy pieces in ice cream. Overall, I just always enjoy the base texture and flavor of all the ice creams at Jeni's. The ice cream is always rich, creamy, and smooth, so that even simple flavors taste delicious, which is important to me. Of course, they always have many different flavors to try, which is fun, too. Excited to keep enjoying Jeni's here and in other locations!

    We came to Jeni's after dinner and it was delicious. It was our first time eating Jeni's and we would definitely come back. We sampled a few different flavors, including everything bagel, that really stays in your mouth with a strong garlic and onion flavor. I love everything bagels, however it was a little too overpowering for me. I ended up getting Brambleberry Crisp, Gooey Butter Cake, and Wildberry Lavender. All flavors were delicious and rich but my favorite was the lavender as it has a nice strong lavender flavor. The waffle piece was also nice: crispy and buttery. Some flavors were only selling by the pint. The interior is crispy white and clean. Staff were very kind and patient with us as we asked for samples.

    Great customer service. You can try as many samples as you want!! And they have both classic and unique flavors. Scoops are just a bit smaller than I would like them to be

    Jeni's Brambleberry Crisp is my go-to! The quality of the ice cream is exceptional. I wish there was a one scoop option, as some days I am not hungry enough to finish two scoops. The prices at Jeni's are half of Van Leeuwen's - fyi!!! I find this location's workers a little standoff ish? They seem a bit annoyed and not overly joyful.

    I have lost count of how many times I have been here. My all time fav is Brambleberry crisp and brown butter almond brittle. Love their freshly made waffle cups and cones. It's a cute place and like to sit there and eat. Staff always is helpful and patient while we try new flavors.

    Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams is definitely delicious. It's a premium type of bougie ice cream. Once you walk in...an instant smile from the smell of the buttercrisp waffles and the cheerful employees greeting you! Very happy about Jeni's being in Fishtown, and when I'm on the block -- I like to stop by to grab a to-go pint. On my most recent visit, I ordered a scoop of my favorite flavor, gooey butter cake (I love the cake chunks in it), with the limited-flavor butterscotch popcorn (you can taste both the popcorn and there are pieces of butterscotch in there too). Both flavors were good. The scoops are not big at all. While I ate inside, it appeared to be clean and comfortable. Jeni's also has plastic cups for piped water that you can pour yourself.

    A day with beautiful temps meant everyone was flocking to get ice cream. When my friends and I…read morearrived around 4:30 PM, it was somewhat hectic, but there were three associates behind the counter so the wait didn't seem long at all. For a limited time, they have a "Biscuits with the Boss" flavor as a collab with Ted Lasso. I was feeling something fruity so I went with Watermelon Taffy and Goat Cheese with Red Cherries. The half scoop needs to be a thing at more ice cream shops because it is the PERFECT portion! I loved that I could try two flavors without feeling stuffed. Goat Cheese with Red Cherries - very rich and creamy with just enough of the tart cherry to balance out the goat cheese. Watermelon Taffy - almost like a sorbet with watermelon flavor. So refreshing! The little waffle cone piece on the side was a great way to add crunchiness. Every flavor at Jeni's is so fun and interesting. I can't wait to stop in again!

    Had this back to back with a nearby local ice cream shop and wow-- Jeni's is fantastic!…read more I really appreciate the creativity that they put into their flavors here. I sampled five flavors and my top three were the Hibiscus Chili Punch, Summer Berries + Passion fruit, and the Watermelon Taffy. The staff member that helped us was very kind, informative, and enthusiastic. He was very open about the flavors and was not shy to tell us what might be too sweet. I wish we came earlier in the day because we got there 30 minutes before closing and they were already in the process of cleaning up. The store still had a super cute color theme going on and it was very clean. We sat at the window barstools while we finished out single scoop. One unique thing about Jeni's is that they serve each flavor by the half scoop, so one scoop automatically defaults to two different flavors!
