    Ice cream treat after dinner. Coffee
    Erica L.

    Stopped in for a cup of ice cream after our meal. It was busy but got my order in right away. Friendly staff. I wasn't paying attention to or didn't research before stopping in that it was cash only. Luckily I had some on me for once but no big deal as they have an ATM if needed! We had a lot of good ice cream around the area and this stop included. Right next to the town park to enjoy your treat. I had a coffee flavored item as I can't remember the exact name.

    This ice cream was phenomenal! I am vegan, so I loved all the vegan options! Vegan soft serve, vegan hard ice cream, vegan waffle cones, vegan milkshakes! Awesome!!! I got the cappuccino oreo & it was soooo good. My boyfriend got the blueberry soft serve which also was so yummy. Staff was super friendly and attentive, and overall a great spot to hit! We'd come again for sure!

    The blueberry soft serve is delicious, definitely recommend! The line was long when we first went in but service was super fast.

    Stopped in CJs after dinner at a local restaurant for an ice cream dessert. Husband had the sea salt caramel ice cream and I had coffee. The portions were huge. We ordered the smallest portions and they were way too much. I'd love if they offered one smaller as I ended up tossing a good chunk of my ice cream. Service was great. We got it to go but I saw lots of people milling about and eating near the front door. Nice stop.

    Non-dairy options!

    Best vegan ice cream on the island. Go to the cooler at the far end - it's all non-dairy and a lot of it is made in-house house! So good!

    Incredibly helpful and fun, welcoming staff. Had very diverse flavors as well as allergy accommodations (gluten, lactose intolerance, etc) and notifications in flavor listings. There seemed to be a flavor and option for everyone. I got the grapenuts ice cream, and my son and husband enjoyed their flavors as well (and they are quite the icee cream aficionados). For those In the Midwest, the texture reminded me of Braum's ice cream (creamy, dense and smooth). The chunk distribution of materials (grapenuts, cookie dough, etc) was evenly dispersed as well. The ONLY issue is that they are a CASH ONLY business, and while they have an ATM in the corner, the machine only accepts debit cards. (Avoid awkward moments by taking cash with you to this venue.)

    Great ice cream! The employees were very kind and the service was very quick despite the long line.

    Blueberry and vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup

    CJ's has delicious ice cream, with a variety of flavors. However, I was a Maine tourist and I had been trying different types of blueberry ice creams from different shops. I ordered a blueberry and vanilla swirl with chocolate syrup. I was disappointed to find out that my ice cream just tasted like vanilla. The ice cream was delicious but I was really looking forward to a strong blueberry flavor. I believe this shop is a local favorite, but if you're looking to try exceptional blueberry ice cream, try it at Jordan's Pond House in Acadia Park or at Jordan Pond Ice Cream & Fudge Shop in Bar Harbor. Also, this place only takes cash but they have an ATM inside. It's a popular spot but the line goes by quick and the service was also quick.

    The blueberry soft serve is to die for. I came three days in a row for it. The staff all seem super friendly as well.

    Great ice cream. Quick service and good portions. Chocolate Raspberry is delicious. The line moves quickly so don't let that discourage you.
