This is my favorite ice cream place ever. Winter, spring, summer, fall it's amazing. From their sherbets to their shakes you can't go wrong. Their ice cream is amazing. I'm a chocolate lover trash girls but my kids like it all. The service is always friendly and atmosphere amazing! Thanks for being so awesome. read more

Didn't realize that I'd already eaten here lol so here's an update... I really wanted to have some ice cream from nearby and because of how late it was and not wanting to venture out myself I ordered some through a delivery app. I got the Medium Waffle Bowl with Blueberry Cobbler, Cake Batter, Banana and Sprinkles. I see that I wrote about having Cake batter before and it was good, but that Blueberry Cobbler is where it's at. Call me old-fashioned, but I like a good dessert turned ice cream. It had little cobbler crumbles in it and was such a compliment to the creamy ice cream. The Banana was just ok and the Cake Batter was still just as good. read more

Love Love Love Brusters Ice Cream Shoppe. There are so many options and home made. You cannot go wrong going here. And there is seating if you want to just sit there and chill or talk and enjoy your cool treat. The service is pleasant and fast. read more

I really liked the Oreo ice cream (a cut or two above), and the chocolate was good too. We got two scoops in a waffle bowl ($6.20), and the bowl tasted good too. It was also nice to eat out front on a nice spring evening. read more

Ive been a huge fan of Brusters since the day it opened! Done many fundraisingevents with them as my children grew up and Tom (the owner) was always so wonderfulto work with. So when out of town guests come its always a stop at my favoriteice cream place! Here's what I'm going to say: the quality has NEVER CHANGED Ain all these years! It still has a homeade flavor and texture. They use REAL INGREDIENTSlike chunk chocolateand real pistachios and pieces of brownie and crumbled candy! Yeah, Im drooling too just writing this! There are no artificial preservatives added so it tastes REAL (...and yummy) and nothing beats that waffle cone icecream dripping down your arm! read more

Hard to be disappointed coming here. Every flavor I've had is delicious. Smells great when you pull up and employees are always so nice.

Best dairy free ice cream yet. There are also so many choices. The service is always quick and I love their little outdoor area. We love it here!! read more

This place has a fun retro vibe and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes it a perfect gathering spot for the community. It's one of our favorite stops, and with so many delicious choices, it's hard to pick just one! I have a few go-to treats, including their rich coffee, anything chocolate, and of course, the ever-popular and absolutely scrumptious Chocolate Peanut Butter Buckeye. My husband, a traditionalist at heart, always sticks with classic chocolate. Me? I love to mix things up and try the featured flavor--there's always something new and exciting to enjoy! No matter what we choose, we're never disappointed, and even our dog gets in on the fun with his very own doggie sundae. Adding to the charm of this place, the young people who work here are always so welcoming and friendly. Their kindness and enthusiasm make every visit even more enjoyable. This spot is the perfect way to end a date night on a sweet note. The prices are just right, the rewards program is fantastic, and every visit feels like a little celebration. Highly recommend! read more

Absolutely love Bruster's! I'm sure I'm close to having tried all of their flavors by now. I've tried a few of their non-dairy flavors too and they're just as good. Prices are reasonable. This place always has a line but it goes quick and is always worth it. Close and easy parking. read more

I love this place! I stopped by to try the new fall flavors and as usual they didn't disappoint! The pumpkin cheesecake was really good but I actually went with the scotchy pecan and butter brickle. I loved them both but the butter brickle was a little too rich for me. The service was amazing. They always have the nicest staff. I'll be back but this is an indulgence I can't do every weekend! read more

Good ice cream place around the area!! Drive through or a walk up Ice cream shop. A lot of different ice cream flavors! You can sample whichever flavor.

Why I go out of my way sometimes just to get one of their Strawberry Freezies when I want to cool off.... simply said, it's the service I get. Would I go out of my way for a drink I love but always got rude or out of touch customer service? NO and NO! Customer Service STILL matters in this crazy world! lol read more

We love Bruster's and we were happy to discover it when we moved to Jacksonville three years ago. My hubby loves an ice cream cake for his birthday. This year it turned out that it was just going to be the two of us after we spent a long weekend at a resort near by and I realized I had failed to order his cake. Most years we are away and I had not ordered one locally since we moved to Jacksonville. I called Bruster's on Monday afternoon requesting a cake for Tuesday and the owner, Tom, was so accommodating and though they could not make one on that short notice, he had one that worked perfectly. My husband was so happy with this cake and said it was the best ice cream cake he had ever had! They can make lots of combinations accordingly to their menu but need a 48 hour notice. But they do have a nice selection that is ready to go for short notice needs. Tom was so nice and I have shared with lots of friends that they do cakes and they say they didn't know that. I will be ordering all my ice cream cakes from them going forward. Check them out! read more

Despite it being a chain, we did enjoy trying out Bruster's in JAX recently! What was cool was that we ordered ahead of time and dropped by when our ice cream was ready. There's certainly a ton of flavors, cups, cones, milkshakes, and other options to choose from which was a bonus. The ice cream I got was both creamy and delicious, and they gave a pretty generous amount. Also, it being a few miles from the beach, I was surprised that the prices were reasonable! So definitely give Bruster's a try, it was great! read more

First I have never had any issues with this establishment until my last two visits. The last one was last Saturday. I called in advance to inquire about the walnuts that would go over the soft serve ice cream to see if it was a new batch. The lady told me the containers were changed often. When my husband and I arrived, I ordered a soft serve vanilla ice cream with wet nuts. We ate when we arrived home. I open the lid and a big glob of walnuts was on the top that actually looked like a puck. I actually picked the whole thing up! The syrup was hard, hence the walnuts being the same. I was disappointed to say the least. I couldn't eat it. That was my final trip. If someone asks about an issue, it should be checked into and handled immediately for better customer service. read more

Fast and friendly service in drive thru. Ordered the hot fudge brownie sundae for my wife and banana split for myself. The brownie was hard on outer edges and banana split had frozen strawberries. Overall pretty good ice cream. read more

I haven't had Bruster's in almost a decade! There used to be one around the corner from where I used to live and I would take the kids for ice cream after scouts- yes, I did say almost a decade. This visit was with my adult son, who treated me! He wanted ice cream and I thought of a few different places when I remembered that Bruster's was the closest! We parked and approached the front to take a look at all the options and I saw a banana split that looked doable! I haven't had a banana split in years! Eddie opted for a mango freeze and we happily sat and enjoyed our treats. I was told I had to eat 2/3's of mine- because I pre-emptively asked for help. I almost never finish my ice cream- I know, I know- there's something wrong with me. John was so jealous when I told him we went out for ice cream without him! Eddie finished mine and his large freeze with no problem. The girl who helped us was friendly and fast and struggled with the glass sliding door before taking our order- my son was laughing. Later when we were finished eating I failed to mention to Eddie that he had ice cream on his beard as he waved by to the young lady he had earlier laughed about.... That warranted a "MOM!" when he saw his reflection at the car. I figured she didn't need to be the only one embarrassed. Pro-tip: always wipe your mouth after eating ice cream! read more

Delicious ice cream at reasonable prices! It doesn't get any better than that. The kids who work there are very nice and seem to actually enjoy their jobs. Either that or they may be theatre kids from the local high school. Definitely recommend any of the non dairy flavors made with oat milk. read more

If you want amazing ice cream, served with a smile, this is the place. I love their birthday cake ice cream, it is to die for! There's always a wait at the drive through, we like to get out of our car and order at the window the old fashioned way. Pro tip - check the Mint and Money magazines for coupons. read more

On two separate occasions I've ordered items and were given the incorrect ones. First visit I ordered a milkshake with vanilla ice cream and cookie dough pieces. I was given a chocolate malt. Second time visiting this location I ordered a pint of strawberry sorbet and chocolate raspberry truffle in a bowl. I was given a pint of strawberry ice cream and the non dairy chocolate raspberry truffle. Very disappointing as these orders were to go and I didn't realize they were incorrect until I arrived home. read more

Heard about this place from a coworker. Best part is they offer complimentary mini cones for kids under 40". They are the perfect size for toddlers; we love portion control. read more

I came to this location with my granddaughters, and got 2 waffle cones with cotton candy and cookies & cream.

Such a fun little shop! It's drive-thru or walk up. The shakes are so delicious as well as their other icream treats. I personally LOVE their banana split. We always get the dog cups for our pups, too! They just love the vanilla ice cream with their milk bone treat on top. They staff is always so nice and helpful with the hard decisions of what to get. I highly recommend visiting here sometime. read more

Brusters has a great business model: Sell a product everyone loves. Who doesn't like ice cream? I usually end up in Brusters after eating a meal somewhere else and I'm on the prowl for a good sweet fix. There are tons of flavors and toppings. They have all the sundaes, splits and dips you could crave. Service has always been good as the employees are friendly and informative. There is limited outdoor seating but I often just eat in the adjacent parking lot within the confines of my car. The ice cream is good that's all I can say. How descriptive can you get with vanilla ice cream (that's all I ever get)? It's creamy!? Check them out if you are close by and in need of a sweet treat. read more

TL;DR - Not an earth shattering ice cream, but a great middle of the road ice cream place that's worth a few visit when the craving arises. It's 9PM and you're craving a banana split--where do you go? You can't go wrong with Bruster's Real Ice Cream and their standard banana split with everything on it. It's not bad, but I will definitely customize the order to my liking. While the pineapple was an okay addition, it's just not my cup of tea. The menu is varied enough that I'll be back here. When I go back, I will be trying the Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae and their (2) two versions of mint. Heck, just thinking about it makes me want to go right now, but it past 10PM already. Darn. The service was good and the price for what I got was only $5.45. All of the seating is outdoors, but they do have a drive thru if you're looking for that convenience. read more

Cute little mom & pop ice cream shop with lovely outdoor seating. Great spot to take your own mom for some chilly ice cream and chats. My mom likes this place for their sundaes, which are admittedly really good. They can be customized with any of their ice cream flavors. She's a sucker for the classics though and always gets the regular sundae with vanilla, fudge, whipped cream topped with a maraschino cherry. For me, I love to try the new flavors they are always brewing. With the pumpkin officially released for the season, I knew I had to give that a shot! I got a cup with two scoops of ice cream, one pumpkin, one chocolate. Even though it was a muggy florida evening, taking bites of the pumpkin made me almost believe the air was getting nippy and that the leaves were changing before my eyes. It was that good! There is a drive-thru if you don't want to utilize their outdoor seating and they are partnered with bitesquad for deliveries, but the best way to eat this ice cream is seated in the outdoor pavilion. read more

My friends and I swung by here last weekend after our day spent at the pool. I've been here once or twice before and really wanted something cool on the hot summer day. This place is a cute little store on the corner of Kernan and Atlantic Blvd. Not only does it have a walk-up window to order at but it also has a drive thru, super convenient. There was a plethora of flavors to pick from, even my most recent favorite Ube. I ended up ordering two scoops, one sea salt caramel and one of the peanut butter with candies inside of it. Both ice-creams were very creamy and had excellent texture! The peanut butter was definitely my favorite. I wasn't the biggest fan of the sea salt caramel, it was a bit too salty and tasted like it was made with straight table salt. But everyone else's flavors that I tried were good! I can't wait to come back and try more flavors! read more
