Already gone bad fruit sold as fresh. Unless you're looking for frozen treat I wouldn't recommend.

Banana split

Pésimo servicio, los productos deliciosos. El chico que nos atendió se portó muy despota y altanero.

Banana split

A banana split was the way to go, combining buckeye, Frappachino and cookie for flavors. A truly wonderful treat. The cup combines one of their famous popsicles with a scoop of fresh ice cream and toppings. Really a great way to try a variety of treats.

Vanilla Sundae with lots of fun toppings.

This place is something else! If you've been craving anything from ice cream to fair food, they've got you covered. There are crazy amounts of ice cream, sherbet, and popsicle flavors to choose from in addition to so many fair-type of snacks, walking tacos, Belgian waffles, nachos, etc. The signage and decor is so vibrant and wild, I legit felt like a kid again. The prices are reasonable and the staff was super sweet and friendly. Go!

Store front - in between Greek restaurant and paint store

I am so excited this place is open and think it is the perfect location on Sawmill. The service was excellent and I learned so much about the different treats. My new favorite is the Mangonada with chunks of mango and the spicy/savory flavors. Ice cream, popsicles, drinks... love all the options!

Soooo many flavor choices for your ice cream needs, their new location is around the corner and fantastic!!! Very friendly staff and reasonably priced!

The ice cream and paletas here are some of the very best in great Columbus! There can be a wait, but it's often worth it!

First time customer, and my last time. If you're wanting to buy overpriced, tiny, stale cupcakes,…read morethis is your spot! Don't waste your money! I needed some cupcakes for a gathering, and I saw the reviews so I thought I'd give them a try. I got up early to be there when they opened so I could have a good selection. I was pretty disappointed when I got there and there weren't that many options. I was also surprised at how small they were. The decorative topping is very simple. Then, when they said they were $4 a cupcake, I was even more surprised. If I hadn't made all the trouble to get here and if I didn't really need the cupcakes, I would have gone someplace else. I thought to myself, these better taste amazing. I bought a dozen cupcakes and made sure I got at least one of each flavor. Once I got home, I dug into one, just to see how they were. Once again, I'm disappointed. They don't even taste fresh. WTH?! Now I'm regretting serving the rest of them, because what if they aren't good as well? So disappointed. I got feedback from those at my event and the consensus is these aren't good. All of the cupcakes were dry, crumbled and fell apart when you tried to eat them. What makes matters worse, the owners don't care.

Could be my favourite stop in the North Market. Not my doctor's. lol. My sister was excited to find…read morethis place. She has something going on where everything must be gluten free. Like the cupcakes she bought a dozen of and refused to share. Don't nothin' ever change? Italian creame and snickerdoodle were the rave of today. It all tastes great, too! I had the Blueberry crumble cupcake and wished I could have two. They have a lot of unique flavours but take caution some things are extremely sweet. Ask first. The young lady that waited on us was friendly and helpful. The crowd wasn't too bad, I suspect it was the crummy weather that kept all the Ohioans inside today.

It's fun trying all of their new limited time & seasonal flavors; there's bound to be a flavor for everyone any time you go! I love all of the fantastic locations they have as well; the walk up window in German Village, and the locations in the Short North & Grandview are my favorite; because they're perfect for grabbing a scoop or two & then enjoying a nice walk with your delicious ice cream! For those that normally have to skip out on ice cream due to dietary restrictions, Jeni's is still for you! They have a ton of dairy free ice creams that are seriously quality & taste great! My go to is Texas sheet cake, it's loaded on the chocolate flavors, but all the df options like Carmel Pecan Sticky Buns, Banana Cream Pudding & even the Frosé are all amazing! Most of these are vegan, & they have a ton of gluten free options as well! Regardless of the kind of ice cream you like, Jeni's is a spot you need to try!

I do think her flavors are getting a bit much. Her originals like the goat cheese and red berries & chocolate cayenne were just so different. She has very different flavors now, but the vast majority have been bad recently. The s'more advertised marshmallow, gave ashtray. All the traditional/ not seasonal flavors taste the same.

I walked by the stand for two days and my partner said let's get some. We both got the MUNCHIE BUSTER BOWL and it was amazing. We had different topping and was able to customize it.

The display of chocolates was completely mesmerizing and contained a wide variety of truffles and handmade candy bars. The shop owner was very friendly and also gave recommendations on what to try. I tried only two truffles because I was so full from all the foods I tried before: Lavender Hand Rolled Truffle: The truffle itself was very dense and rich with a strong presence of cocoa. Every bite melted in my mouth just like any good quality chocolate. What ruined this one was the lavender flavoring which was so overpowering that all I could taste was cocoa and lavender. Vietnamese Cinnamon Hand Rolled Truffle: I really enjoyed this one. The cinnamon and honey in the truffle paired perfectly with the strong cocoa flavor and the chocolate itself was very rich. If I was ever in the area again, I would probably come by to try their handmade candy bars and white chocolate items.

I went to the original location only to learn they have now moved to a larger location. So In traveled there. Drove by it. Lol. Turned around and was happy that they now how a dedicated parking lot. No more parking meters and walking! Yay!!! I swear... donuts from here dont taste like they are gluten free nor do they taste vegan. Which is why Im obsessed with them. So want g to share this with my friend, I immediately hopped into my car and drove 20 min to grab a box of these to being to her. Knowing she was going to be with three more of my friends I decided to get two big boxes of baked goods. Poptarts, scones croissants, cookies. All vegan, some gluten free. I didnt tell anyone they were vegan. They ate every crumb. That's when I told them about the vegan part. They were each amazed. When they were in town the next weekend they even messaged me to ask for more donuts! Im telling you, this is a hidden gem of columbus. Everything there is so good
