It's just not worth it. Hate to say it. I think Publix ice cream is better than their's. Paying $10 for a super mediocre sundae just isn't worth it. Murray Hill dreamette is so much better. They have so many more different choices. The service is mediocre here too. No napkins and they fill the ice cream so high without offering a to go cover or anything. It's a step up store so no ambiance. This is my 2nd time here to give it another shot and I'm sorry I did. I would have been better off at another local ice cream spot....or seriously Publix brand ice cream. lol read more

I got the chocolate / vanilla swirl soft serve in a kiddie sized cup and it was a good serving. I have been to 2 other Dreamette locations and all of them have been amazing. The menu has a wide variety including sundaes, milkshakes, cones, etc! read more

San Marco Dreamette - Chocolate/Vanilla Twist Soft Serve (kiddie cup) - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I LOVE A GOOD SOFTSERVE and this place DELIVERS! Its creamy and a big portion. The service was fast and they were nice. Its a chill spot, its walk up but there are benches to sit and enjoy it for a bit before going about your day. So glad we stumbled upon this place while being in the area, craving ice cream hehe. read more

Boyfriend found this ice cream spot as we walked for a while in San Marco. It's basically like a walk up shop, you order at one window and pick up at another. There are some benches to sit at and there's a parking lot across the street. It's a cute little place with very friendly staff. However so many ice cream options it was hard to decide. We had three people ask if we were ready to pick and we weren't... ha. They mentioned there's a little buzzer by the window when we're ready to order. I ended up getting a medium Twix shake and he got a pineapple dole in a bowl. He really enjoyed his ice cream. I don't usually break out of my routine with ice cream but I did this time, by getting Twix. I'm usually a Reese's pieces or Oreo fan. Mine was very good, I wish there were more Twix in it but this might just be the sweet tooth in me. The shake did come with a straw but it was too thick to use the straw lol. So I used the spoon that was given with the shake. Still was solid. We both were pretty full before even getting to finish our dishes. The place does provide wet wipes for your hands for how sticky ice cream can be which is awesome. Ice cream is always good in my books. :) read more

Dreamette missed the mark on this one. I approached the window and waiting a couple of second. I was greeted with a warm hello. I asked did they have a strawberry shortcake. Im a first timer and did not have a chance to view their menu. BIG MISTAKE! The counter person replied, "We do". She asked if I wanted a small, medium or large shortcake. I wanted just a small one to taste the pound cake, vanilla ice cream and the succulent strawberries. However to my surprise I was given a strawberry ice cream with a pound cake. I was disappointed and left the window with my head held down and my face in a frown. I want my strawberry shortcake and I want it now! read more

Yes, OMG yes! Happened to find this place just by walking by. They serve up a bunch of different soft serve treats in San Marco. Can be hard to find if you don't know where to look. I got a peach sundae that was great! Their ice cream is soft serve and tastes a lot like Dairy Queen's, my favorite! Will be back! read more

What a delightful find. My family and I are from the Midwest where having some soft serve or custard ice cream is a ritual in the summer. Being able to spend the 24th of Xmas eating ice cream was great. The Taste of the candy cane swirl of as perfect and I got the midsize and had more than. Enough to share with someone else. I'm definitely coming back read more

Everyone in our group of six said this was the best soft serve ice cream they have ever had.

Dreamette's a local favorite for a reason. When it's hot out and I'm craving ice cream, this is usually my go-to spot. The soft serve is super smooth and you can load it up with all kinds of toppings. I like having the options, but I'm a plain vanilla kind of guy. Simple and perfect every time. If you're looking for a good ice cream spot give them a try. read more

Pretty awesome location. Staff is chill. Ice cream never misses. Def a cool little spot.

What an unforgettable way to wrap up the night! The service was fast.And that ice cream? It was absolutely divine--just what I needed! The only downside? Not a ton of seating, but the experience made it all worth it! read more

Yummy!! Soft serve ice cream that is creamy and delicious!! Great service and sit outside and enjoy your treat.

It's cool, not the best Dreamette's location. But still really good. The serving sizes are pretty solid as well.

This is a cute little neighborhood ice cream place. You order and eat outside or take it to go. This is very much a traditional, old fashioned ice place with cones, cups, shakes and sundaes. The employees are very friendly and answer any questions you might have about the menu. They promptly take your order and get it ready for you in a few minutes. We've stopped in countless times and everything has always been perfect. read more

A cute lil ice cream shop in San Marco. Came here for a sweet end to the night with my friend/coworker because I can never say no to dessert, especially if it's ice cream. This shop made me feel like I was in an old school movie in a quaint town, which matches the vibes of San Marco for me. They serve soft serve with some cool toppings & dips to match. I got a classic soft serve cone but had it dipped in Birthday Cake because I've never seen that type of dip before! It tasted exactly like birthday cake and did not disappoint. It was a warm summer night so we had to enjoy it fast! A great spot for a sweet treat if you're in the area! read more

Had a great time tonight at Dreamette in San Marco! I always appreciate when an ice cream shop has waffle cones and an abundance of toppings! I got chocolate and vanilla mixed soft serve in a waffle cone with m&ms and peanut butter and it was delicious! It was a nice night and as such, there was a steady flow of people throughout the night, showing that it's a pretty popular spot. Definitely give it a try, I do recommend! read more

Easily accessible area to order. The location is great and the area is nice with a scenic view of the beautiful San Marco area. The service was great. I ordered at the window on the right and picked up at the window on the left. Fast and friendly service. It's hard to get options that are dairy free but I enjoyed the vegan vanilla ice cream. Hopefully, they will add more flavors in the future. read more

No matter where the Dreamette is located, I will be there. I absolutely love soft serve and this beautiful walk-up space in the heart of San Marco is a wonderful place to get it. I am a purist and generally go for a cake cone with chocolate/vanilla twist with chocolate dip, or a vanilla cone with chocolate sprinkles. It's really the only place I enjoy a cone at all no matter how messy it can be on a hot day. I insisted that we go after my last 5k at the new shared-use path and it was a perfect post-race dinner. read more

Upside: Pricing is moderate but portions are plenty! Ice cream and shakes were delicious. I love that they gave a drip catch thing for the cones and large shake straws. Downside: cotton candy slushy was more slushy and less flavor. Outside could get cramped and there isn't tables to sit at. There are benches but not many and more like park benches positioned next to each other so your sitting very close to people you don't know. Place that sells ice cream should really have some better seating as most people don't want to drive with ice cream. I would come again if I was in the area. read more

I got a chocolate\vanilla swirl. It did not have much flavor, but it was overwhelmingly sweet. I ended up tossing a lot of it. I got a waffle cone which was good and they provided a little plastic cone holder to protect your hand from drips. That was a nice innovation. read more

I have been wanting to try dreamette ever since I moved here and I'm so glad I finally did!! I went on my birthday and I asked if they did any special things for birthdays, and the person at the counter was kind enough to give us a very generous discount. I got a small ("small" -- I should've gotten the kids size!!) vanilla soft serve cone with the birthday cake dip, and it was a little on the sweeter side for me, but it was still delicious!! My boyfriend got a banana pudding shake which was also delicious and tasted so fresh!! I also love that they serve the cones with the plastic barrier that catches the ice cream drip! Great location to walk and eat yummy ice cream! 10/10 customer service and I want to come back again and try the peanut butter dip!! read more

San Marco Dreamette - Small vanilla soft serve with birthday cake dip - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I used to come to this location for my kettles of hot tea and or coffee. The lay out is totally different now. There is no entry. You order at the window and then migrate to the pick up window. There are several cement benches to sit and rest while you wait for your order. They did have training going on and it was most impressive. Training is very important. One is only as good as one is trained. I ordered a cookie dough medium sized milkshake. Girl! That thing wanted to make me dance! It was delicious. Pros:they do accept cash or debit card at this location. Friendly employees! Great treats for everyone. Great location. Cons:it was hot outside while waiting for my shake. Parking: this tiny lot is a little bit tricky and small. It's also shared lot with another business or two. Recommend? Heck yes! read more

This was a request for my daughter and her friends before homecoming. All I can say is the pumpkin spice was out of this world. This is a must try and the best soft serve.......sincerely the girl who usually passes on soft serve. read more

We found this place from another yelp elite member. We love ice cream locations. This is a hidden gem to us as we do not live in that area. The service was quick and answered all our questions. We got our desserts fast. We loved every bite of them. They do have a military discount. read more

I have always loved Dreamette, but I especially love this location. All the employees are always friendly and they make your order really fast. They have a big selection of flavors and ways to get them. I crave the banana split in a cup all the time so I pretty much just get that but occasionally I'll switch it up with a chocolate/vanilla swirl cone dipped in the peanut butter dip. Even though there are only a few parking spots on the right side of the building, there has always been at least one open when I went. Some people park across the street also. read more

Huge portions and delicious tasting! Perfect location for when you want to walk around after.

Dreamette is an awesome place. Where else can you have strawberry soft serve? (Well it's the first place we've had it!) portions are large and reasonably priced. Service and quick and friendly read more

Customer service is pitiful for great ice cream. Save your money and your dignity by going to Milkster down the road. This place is not getting my money anymore. My family made their orders but when it came to my turn, I asked for a chocoholic to go. It was for my partner's daughter to have after work. They made the family orders just fine but then gave me the order I made with the hot fudge. I said I asked for it to go. My partner was met with some argument that they already made it. They finally made it right but something as simple as TO FO does not register. So, I tipped for crap service. And do t want to come back. Milkster appreciates their clients and business, same with Springfield scoops. read more

San Marco Dreamette is a great spot for soft serve, and has become a regular stop for my family when we're in the mood for ice cream. They have most of the usual items- cones, milkshakes, and sundaes, but don't have arctic swirls/Blizzards (which is quite unusual for a soft serve shop in my book). I normally get a small sundae or a cone, and the portions are quite large in my book. I'm not particularly sure how you could finish a medium or large cone before it melts, even in the winter... but I digress. The ice cream itself is usually quite good, and their sundae toppings are tasty. There's off street parking available, which is always welcome in San Marco. The staff is friendly and fast, and prices are reasonable. What more can you ask for in a soft serve shop (aside from a Blizzard-like item, that is)? Give it a shot when you're in the area and in the mood for soft serve. read more

The San Marco Dreamette is such a cute little spot for ice cream. The main downside for me was parking and having to wait in the heat. The employees are kind and if the line isn't long--you will get your ice cream fairly quickly. On my visit, I ended up receiving something I actually didn't order. However with it being on the receipt, I'm guessing the cashier just misheard me. Overall, good experience, would definitely give Dreamette another visit. read more

Oooh this is definitely my new local ice cream spot. My boyfriend and I were walking to get coffee, when we realized the coffee shop was closed. We were near Dreamette so we decided to try their ice cream instead. It was definitely a better pick-me-up than a latte! The sizes are HUGE! I got a kids size and it was way too much. We will probably share a kids size or small next time. I loved seeing the vegan vanilla on the menu and I can't wait to try all of the dipping flavors available. For my first experience I went with the toasted coconut. My boyfriend got the strawberry swirl dipped in chocolate. I ordered a sugar cone but was given it in a cake cone. I'm not sure if they have sugar cones. Next time I will get it in a bowl because I couldn't keep up with eating it and it melted all over the place. The ice cream was good, but the toasted coconut was the highlight. Next time I will get regular vanilla instead of the vegan vanilla. Their whole menu sounded amazing and prices are good. We went in the middle of the day so there was no line. We are new to town and heard this is a very popular spot. We have visited a few times now and my boyfriend also loves the root beer float. The twist ice cream is great too! read more

I have been a fan of Dreamette since I moved to Jax in 2016 when visiting the original Murray Hill location. The closing of the Bold Bean here in San Marco was bittersweet for me, losing a local coffee spot but gaining a Jacksonville ice cream gem. They offer the classic soft serve ice cream, along with shakes, floats, sundaes, freezes with a wide variety of toppings and flavors. Nice to see they've added more benches for customers to sit since they opened a few weeks ago. Come here for delicious ice cream and support an amazing local business! read more
