I am a big fan of my local Jeni's Ice Cream store, so when we were visiting Nashville. I didn't…read morehesitate to stop in. Some of my favorite flavors include dulce de leche, double dough which is their equivalent of cookie dough ice cream, Gooey Butter Cake and my all time favorite their brown butter almond brittle. It was another great experience, located in a walkable area.

Jeni's ice cream has been my go-to ice cream shop. Every flavor I've tried and every location I've…read morevisited has consistently delivered a great experience -- and the 12th South location is no exception. While parking can be a bit tricky in this area, it's worth the effort. This visit, I decided to step outside my comfort zone and try their seasonal special: lavender, double cookie dough, and peppermint. Surprisingly, the combination was absolutely delicious -- unique, bold, and perfectly balanced. From the outside, the shop looks small, but once inside, it opens up into a spacious and inviting space. The staff was friendly and patient, especially with my group as we debated which flavors to choose. That said... when did ice cream become such a luxury? Between my seasonal scoop and a two scoop cup, the total came out to nearly $20 -- definitely unexpected. Still, the quality and flavors make Jeni's hard to resist.

This is not Maggie Moo's anymore... Margaret would never. The sign now says Marble Slab/ Great…read moreAmerican cookie. There is a smell so putrid and foul inside that we ate our ice cream and cookies outside in the rain. Initially I gave them the benefit of the doubt, thinking they were just having plumbing issues, but I see this smell is mentioned in reviews going back at least a year. Every inch of this store smells like sewage but also an animal shelter. I am truly perplexed how they are passing inspections. On top of that, the prices are incredibly steep. My friends each paid $8 for their small cup of ice cream. You can get designer ice cream (Jeni's) for less! Some reviews mentioned bad service, but the employees were kind to us and we had no issues with them.

Maggie Moos was an absolute treat (pun intended!) on a hot Saturday midmorning in preparation for a…read morefootball game! The service was quick with the workers being friendly and helping. The environment was clean and lots of signage with various ice cream decor strung about. The ice cream I got was the chocolate base with brownies and cookie dough bites mixed in. The ingredients were visibly fresh and it tasted amazing, would definitely come back again!

Visited on a Saturday evening around 7 p.m. with my 4 and 3 year old, plus my 1 year old nephew and…read morehis parents. The first thing I noticed was the line, which was about 12 people deep and stretched very close to a busy road. I was thankful to have other adults with me because managing multiple young children in that situation would have felt stressful. My nephew was in a stroller, and we were glad he was. Parking was easy. We found a spot in the lot, and it looked like there was additional street parking nearby. The line moved fairly slowly, though once we ordered, the ice cream came out quickly. I was surprised that two kids' cones with one topping cost about $12. The kids' cones were enormous, easily 2-3x as much ice cream as I would normally give my children. Thankfully, I watched someone else's order before ours arrived and was able to remove some of the ice cream and put it into a separate cup for myself. I didn't notice any high chairs, although I wasn't specifically looking for them. The ice cream itself was good but fairly average. The highlight for me was the cute building and old-fashioned atmosphere. Overall, it wasn't the best fit for our family. Between the cost, oversized portions for young children, and the logistics of waiting in line near a busy road, there are other ice cream spots in the area that I would personally choose first...the product isn't worth the stress.

Bobbie's is a rite of passage for Nashvillians, a '50s style fast-food, walkup stand from…read moreyesteryear that draws long lines of eager customers. Serving a diverse menu of American classics from old-fashioned hamburgers and hot dogs to creative dairy treats, Bobbie's has been in business since 1951. In fact, known as Harper's Dairy Dip until 1986, this is the third oldest eatery on one of America's longest roads (Highway 70) in continuous operation (fourth oldest overall). The good thing is that you'll enjoy your experience, there is plenty of outdoor seating, and the service is always excellent. Employees stay positive and relaxed despite the stress of growing lines and constant orders coming in. The downsides include long lines, notoriously impossible parking, and average food. Even the soft serve ice cream isn't good, and that's difficult to mess up. I ordered a Heath Swirlie over the weekend, and I could barely find any toffee. And the soft serve just wasn't good. The hamburger was equally mediocre, harkening back to a simpler time but not something that would wow you in any way. Go here for the history and to keep them going, not for high-quality food.

I finally got to try Baked Bear and it exceeded my expectations. Cookies and ice cream seem simple,…read morebut they have so many fun flavors and combinations that make it such a great treat. I got the Cookie Monster ice cream, which had cookie dough and Oreo flavors, and I think there was also a cake batter flavor mixed in. For the cookies, I chose a Cosmic Brownie cookie and a classic chocolate chip cookie, and both were so good and tasted really fresh. The staff was super nice and patient while I tried to decide because there were so many options. Definitely a fun cute dessert spot, and I'll be back to try more combinations!

Since it was our first visit, the staff was beyond friendly and took the time to explain everything. They were patient, helpful, and genuinely seemed excited for us to experience it for the first time. The custom cookie ice cream sandwiches looked absolutely divine. One of the coolest things we learned is that they'll press the sandwiches so the cookies are warm and gooey while the ice cream stays perfectly intact. Such a unique touch! I personally went with the dark chocolate ice cream topped with mini chocolate chips, and it was rich, decadent, and absolutely fabulous. Every bite felt like a chocolate lover's dream. Between the amazing desserts, the friendly staff, and the cute atmosphere, The Baked Bear was a fantastic experience. We will definitely be back!

Jeni, Jeni, who can I turn to?…read more Listen, I was in Nashville for the week and I was here every night. Why? Is it because Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams is using Direct Trade ingredients? Nah. I just liked their ice cream flavors. First time ever at Jeni's, I had the Bramble Berry Crisp Ice cream in a homemade waffle cone. Jeni created an Oven-toasted oat streusel with a sweet-tart brambleberry jam and layered it throughout vanilla ice cream. The final result? That's some mit-T-fine ice cream, one might say (pinkie to lip, splendid?) The next night I zeroed in on the Salted Peanut Butter with Chocolate Flecks. Jeni made this ice cream gem with fresh, salted roasted peanuts and chips of rich Belgian dark chocolate flecks. The end result? Jeni, I think I want to marry you. Creamy, dreams peanut butter ice cream stuffed into a warm waffle cone. I see Jeni's ice cream pints in the supermarket. It may be good but gimme a fresh scoop of this delicious ice cream. Service was quick and efficient. One zap of Apple Pay on my phone and I was on my way. Jeni? Call me and bring some pints, 867-5309
