This is a cute retro ice cream parlor/soda fountain. Some nice candy, too. I've ordered ice cream…read moreeach of the 2-3 times I've visited. I don't remember what I had, but all of it was good, and it was moderately priced. As I recall, the ice cream comes from elsewhere. Oh, and the staff dress in early 20th century-inspired clothes, and music of that era to the big band era is played. Yes, please! The hours aren't what I'd like them to be... only open until 6 on Sundays and closed Mondays and Tuesdays. But this is pretty typical for Main St.

There's an antique stereo playing big band music. The employees are even dressed in period clothing as they serve you. There is lots of menu items to choose from, literally like a kid in a candy store. After some taste testing and deliberating, I decided to go with a waffle sundae, with cinnamon snickerdoodle ice cream, and raspberry sauce. You may think this combo sounds weird, but you'd be wrong. :) The mini waffle was freshly made. The ice cream was cinnamon flavored with snickerdoodle cookies mixed in. The raspberry topping was real fruit purée. Put that all together and you have a great combination and delicious dessert. We look forward to a return visit to try some of the other sweet treats.

Laulie went above my expectations and was extremely impressive. I was trying them for the first…read moretime for my granny's birthday and just walked in to see if they had any fresh items so I can try before I buy. Cakes can be expensive and it's nice to be able to purchase a taste. In the case their were fresh cupcakes and other desserts available to purchase. I purchased a cupcake to see if I would want to order additional cupcakes and it was very moist and the right balance of icing. Sometimes cupcakes can be too sweet but this was as close to perfection as anyone can expect. The associates were very friendly when I went in to order my items. I ordered cupcakes and a 6'inch cake. The desserts not only were masterfully done like artwork but just as delectable to taste. They also helped me to the car as I had several items. The price was also reasonable. I feel like I found out the best kept bakery secret in St. Charles. If you want something sweet this is the place to go.

I will have to go back soon as there are several other items I want to try.

Prices are really affordable for homemade cookies. I got a double chocolate, regular chocolate, and peanut butter. Personally I lean toward crunchier harder cookies so the soft and crumbly/floury texture wasn't totally my preference, but they were still good and you can tell they're homemade The line speaks for itself. Even if it's not your usual cookie style I still think it's worth trying at least once.

The lemon flavor is not overwhelming or super synthetic tasting and the raspberry adds a bright, balanced taste. It's my absolute favorite! The icing is velvety smooth - and there's just the right amount to balance out the cake. Embracing the flavors of the season, I tried the Turtle Cheesecake Swirl. It was a bit disappointing, as the nuts were a bit soft and the flavors I expected never really shone through. There wasn't any Oreo cookie to be found, though that's in the description and the pics, so that one was my least favorite overall. Their prices appear to have risen exponentially in just the last couple of years, so for me, it's more of an occasional splurge than a regular stop.

One flavor of ice cream available? Not a good starting sign!…read more Now I didn't get as many outdoor pictures this weekend as I had intended... but that's what happens when I heatwave happens in the middle of nowhere right? (But at least I remembered the food photo this time! So I"m not totally on dementia notice yet :) ) But I was having one of those goof-off days, (sorta) spent more than I should have at the World Market (I can't help it! The Sasume soft drinks -ALWAYS- Get me! (the Greatest Japanese invention ever :) ) So I'm REALLY needing Ice-cream. but i mean real ice cream. Then I remembered this place I promised myself I would stop in.. Jilly's. Driven past it a few times, saw it had once gotten a USA today recommendation, and the big sign had "cupcakes, ice cream and coffee" written right there. Go in and there's not really a vibe to the place. There is an ice cream counter and a cup-cake counter, and a couple of soda fridges. The problem is.. I'm going in wanting ice cream, make my way over ot check and there's ONLY ONE tub in the entire case with anything in it. And it's BUTTER PECAN??? I swear, maybe i just need to lower my expectations or something? But then how do I be the best "Yelpee" i can be? Anyway enough about the introspective for now. So I'm here, let's see what else we can have problems with today, shall we? The "coke" fridge has a limited supply of drinks.. I guess the stockers hadn't run yet today? (so -1 star for no ice cream/drinks). Well, it's a heatwave, so coffee's out. and that just leaves Cupcakes.... and wow.. these things are HUGE! And that's just the cupcake, that's not counting the icing on top! Basically, two entirely different layers.. one for the cake and one for the frosting.. (talk about a sugar coma!) Anyway, time to take a pack of 4 to go... (the sit down locale wasn't really much to my recollection, it just seemed "there" as if this wasn't a good day as I don't' recall a lot of the amenities as shown in most Yelpers photos., or I was just too hot to notice. ). so it's grab and go... And I realize, just looking at them; this is not one of those deserts you can eat and drive, so maybe a full sealed rack is a good thing right?) I make it home and wouldn't you know it; I forgot that cupcakes were actually "Stuffed".. Surprise!! 3 deserts in one! Cake, Filling, and Icing! Anyway, I don't even make it all the way through the first cupcake as a whole before I realize... Yep, Sugar Coma all the way! Basically, you've been warned you can order more than 1 cupcake to yourself, but count on leftovers if you do!! Anyway, I finally snapped out of my sugar coma and got around to writing things before i go for another sugar coma (dont' forget, I ordered 4 cupcakes!!). So yes these things are huge and they are priced a little more than usual cupcakes, but absolutely worth every penny So IRONICALLY, if i had gone in for Cupcakes alone... this would be a 5* review. As I was originally going for ice cream (And am so OVER butter pecan), 4 *'s it is at least for me. but we've given you the steps to get your own 5* time at Jilly's!
