The 5 star rating is for their homemade ice cream. My first time here but my friend occasionally visited in her childhood/teen years. The fact their ice cream was homemade made this our destination on a warm Friday early evening. The windows were steadily busy but there really wasn't a wait. The young lady who greeted and served us was very sweet. My friend and I decided to share a large half banana walnut and half coffee brownie in a cup topped with a sugar cone. The grounds are clean and welcoming so we sat at some benches under a big umbrella to the right of the building facing the go cart track with my dog. Both ice cream flavors were delicious and very creamy not not too sweet or heavy. The banana flavor was not artificial tasting at all which is usually the case with most banana products and it was chock full of big walnuts. The coffee brownie was also full of fresh brownie pieces and though I could taste a hint of coffee I have had stronger tasting coffee ice creams before. At $5.36 including tax, you can't beat it! We're fans and will be back!! read more

Just keep in mind this Is a heavily teenage run business. I went for my friends birthday to have a good time, and asked if the mini golf was open and some girl with dirty blonde hair lied and told us to walk down to the arcade. When we walked away she laughed at us. The attractions were all closed. We went back and called her out and wasn't sure if anything was done after. She thought it would be funny to be rude to customers. read more

When you ask for a brownie sundae, you have to keep reminding them that it's called a brownie sundae because it had it has brownie in it, stay away from some other guys that make ice cream cause they suck. They go too fast and don't pay attention to detail. Do you don't have a have to a rocket scientist degree or a degree in engineering to scoop ice cream for some people that work there don't get the basic point of that. There is brownie on a brownie sundae. That's simple. I wish I can give him a zero out of five if you pay for something, you should get it for overpriced ice cream read more

I don't know what's going on with JayGees this year. The last 3 weeks we have ordered ice cream online for pick up they have given us the wrong ice cream or the right ice cream with all the wrong toppings. In addition to that, they seem to run out of flavors and they never return. read more

Went here on the road trip back to RI from NH. Fun place for the family. I suggest the pass that allows you todo one of every activity. They have bumper cars, a tiny go kart track, mini golfing, baseball cages, an ice cream shop and an arcade. Probably spent around 45 minutes here. Good time though. read more

Jay Gee's - a hand holding a cup of ice cream - Amusement Parks Near Me - Methuen, Massachusetts

Great place to take the kids! Ice cream was awesome!! Sizes were generous and prices were reasonable!

I asked for a hard ice cream, and it started melting rapidly, and I didn't even have it for a minute. Not the same anymore.

Went on a feild trip with my class back when i was in middle school to Jay Gee's and it was one of the worst experiences i have ever went through in my life. Was given a card with all the activitys each one gets a hole punched and forced to carry it around, nothing to keep the card close and ended up losing my card and couldnt do anything without one. 1/5 Stars Never Going Back anytime soon. read more

Fun fun.. happy to have something like this in my neighborhood to be able to take my grandchildren out for a day of go carts bumper cars baseball cages bumper boats and miniature golf they offer Special for $28 do everything..Which is amazing... Argentine Cowboys Boston ma........ read more

Jay Gee's - Bumper boats - Amusement Parks Near Me - Methuen, Massachusetts

we went there today and I will say that they did a really nice job with all the protocols that they put in place everyone was wearing a mask and they had sanitizer all around however not having the bathrooms open and a place that you could spend hours seemed a little silly to me. We got tickets for the bumper boats and that was pretty fun It was very clean they were sanitizing between each one. The go-karts was the same thing except for a lot of people were bumping so that wasn't fun. The ice cream we got my son's both got kiddies was huge. The frappe I got was really good overall I would definitely be back read more

The best cotton candy ice cream in all of the land, no seriously - try it...soooo good! The only reason we couldn't give five stars is because they should be open all year! read more

If you're looking for a place to teach your kids that it's okay to break rules the go karts are the perfect ride for you. Added bonus: rude staff who like to argue with customers. The go karts have a no bumping rule- assuming for safety- but a teen bumped me three times on purpose. I got scared and pulled over. They stopped the ride and restarted it without talking to the boy or taking him off. After the ride, I asked if they were going to say anything. I was yelled at! They said they can't make people follow their rules! So I told the boy that he could have hurt me. The staff berated me for talking to the boy! The staff said I shouldn't talk to a kid! I called a manager who did nothing in the moment but took my phone number. I've had friendly staff experiences there so this really shook me. Rider beware. read more

Love this place, bring my nephew here every year and he loves the batting cages and the ice cream. Highly recommend!! read more

Jay Gee's - Mini golf! - Amusement Parks Near Me - Methuen, Massachusetts

Took our 5 kids and their spouses, along with our 11 grandchildren here today. Everyone had a great time, smiles all around. I booked the fun pass and added pizza & ice cream to it. the pizza was surprising good and the ice cream was enjoyed by all. The staff was great!! The cards that we had to use got really confusing because we had so many people. But all in all an awesome time had by all. read more

Get the fun pass ! It's well worth it. We spent a few hours here on a lovely summer evening. Since we got there early (around 5 PM) there were no lines for the mini golf. We breezed right through and got on the go karts. The batting cage was a bit sketchy, there were too many kids and it was chaotic. People were swinging bats outside of the cage where they shouldnt have been. The bumper cars were really fun, I loved the high energy music, disco lights and the spinning for 4 seconds when you got it. Last but not least, I thought we were going to get a measly small scoop of ice cream included in the package but I was wrong, it was a HUGE "Kiddie" size and lots of options to choose from! this place is fun for kids or even for a date night. read more

There was not nearly enough experienced help on a weekend evening to dispense ice cream treats. There was party of four at the counter being served when we got in line, and a party of three in front of us. It took more than twenty-five minutes to fill our simple order of three kiddie cones. The ice cream was very good, but not worth waiting for. read more

Our family of five have been here twice. Went on Father's Day was great! We got the value pkg $18 each. Took us 2 hours to get though everything. Ice cream was awesome! Staff was very nice. Everything was clean and kept up. Worth every penny. Went at 7pm was busy but not bad. read more

Today was my first time there and their service is great and the passes to go on all attractions are great. 100% recommend taking teens there. read more

I used DoorDash to preorder so it's ready to go upon arrival. I love this as an option cause they're usually pretty busy. So it's nice to skip the line. I ordered the coconut ice cream with hot fudge on it and I have no complaints. The coconut ice cream seems to have coconut flakes which adds to the ice cream consistency. I'm new to the area (since April) and this has been my go to ice cream place all summer read more

Been going for almost 40 years, growing up across the Merrimack since 1983' til this day where I live 5 minutes down the road. I love what they've done for upgrades ,but it's def not the same. You use to get a small ice cream that was bigger than your head. That is 1000 percent what they are famous for. Now for about $6.30 you get a little kiddie cup about the size of a frosty paw for your dog. Workers ,it's usually a bunch of college kids while very friendly, seem more concerned with their written life story on their tip jars than making a proper sized ice cream, but I still tip them a $1 because I am just that guy having work in the service industry, plus... I am willing to bet the animals they have for clients nowadays have never tipped anything in their life besides maybe a canoe. Now we either door dash our orders or go to another establishment a little further due to it having the vibe like going to six flags or Hampton Beach where you don't know if full blown chaos is about to erupt. read more

I love this place but what I don't like is with the COVID-19 they don't put gloves on to serve you why I think they can afford a couple of box gloves every day read more

Terrible batting cages. Today we drove 40 minutes to come here, paid for 20 dollars of bad pitches on the batting machines , all of which were eye level or above my 4'6" 8 year old . They would not give us any credit for the bad batting cage tokens , no arcade or go carts credit or even a free ice cream, even though he was depressed and saying he was a bad baseball player. Even my 11yo 5'2" son was getting pitches over his head and all over the plate . Don't spend your money here for batting cages . my kid got hit by a pitch while standing in the batters box!! read more

It was Dennis's birthday and we were going to have a dinner party. My friend suggested this place as I wanted to get an ice cream cake. I called a few times and got voice mail. I left a message and they called back so I could place the order. They do an option of a half cake (vanilla or chocolate) and half ice cream, however they told me that they do not make the cake there. They come frozen and have been in their freezer since may and that they only had chocolate left. I choose to have 2 layers of just ice cream as I did not want a old freezer burned cake. The woman on the phone I spoke to was not very patient and seemed annoyed at all my questions. She seemed pissed that I had the nerve to ask what flavors they had. I choose half vanilla and half Snickers ice creams and It came with white frosting which tasted like cool whip. The cake was 14" round and was decorated nicely with "Happy Birthday Dennis". I picked up the cake on a Sunday late afternoon. I stood at the outside pickup window for about 10 minutes while hoards of kids ran around me yelling and screaming. An ok value at $21.00 which fed 10 people and had plenty left over. Located on very busy Rt 110. Be careful on the busy road and narrow parking lot. read more

Had a lot of fun here on Labor Day. Purchased two "Get It All" passes for half price (normally $17 each) via Boston.com, which entitled us to mini golf, go karts, bumper cars, batting cages, and ice cream. The mini golf course is actually pretty nice, despite the one hole that was flooded from their water hazard... Go karts are your standard go karts, with a little but windy track that's fun to zip around. Again, batting cages are batting cages. Decided to not do the bumper cars as they looked pretty sad, but decided to do some extra rounds in the batting cage ($2/16 balls) instead. Ice cream was tasty and huge. We were bummed that we were only allowed to get the kiddie cup, only to find out that Jay Gee's kiddie size is the equivalent of a medium or large anywhere else... slightly ridiculous. Definitely an awesome destination for families! read more

I took my nephew, who lives out of state here few weeks ago, and he absolutely loved it. The go-karts were something he was able to drive himself. The place is a nice family oriented spot, that offers packages so you can get tokens to do batting cages, bumper cars, and go-karts. There is an arcade, and you can top the fun time with an ice cream out front. read more

Jay Gee's - Logan in the golf kart - Amusement Parks Near Me - Methuen, Massachusetts

Jay Gee's home made ice cream is rich, creamy and absolutely delicious! With over 40 flavors (plus weekly and seasonal favorites) made on the premises, its a tough choice to choose just one! In addition, Jay Gee's wins the award for over sized portions. For only $3, their small ice cream is the size of a large at most of the fancy Boston ice cream shops. If you really want a small - order a kiddie! It's plenty big! read more

I have been going to Jay Gees during the summer time religiously for as long as i can remember. I've had many birthday parties here, even before the nice slick go cart track and the mini arcade. I love the fact that a kiddie cup ice cream is basically pint sized. They have SOOOO many flavors to choose from and i've loved everything i've ever gotten. The only thing is that they are not as inexpensive as they used to be, but because Jay Gee's has been a staple of my summers since i was a wee little one, i can easily overlook the increase in prices and get me some yummy milky way ice cream! read more

My favorite ice cream stand. Its close. Its convenient. Parking can be a hassle because this is a VERY busy place in the summertime but well worth the wait! A small is more like a large at some places and the prices are reasonable. I think a small and a large together costs something like $7.00. Not too bad. AND they take visa/mastercard! Great variety including some flavors I had never heard of. Caramel Vanilla Cashew is my favorite. They have lots of variety for peanut butter lovers, too!!! An added plus is the mini golf that looks fun although I have never played their course. read more

Ordered again last week the same mint patty froyo!!! Wow it was amazing huge mint patty's in every bite! After lifting weights and burning 1200 calories a day it was the best treat! Today me and my wife had a amazing night out we decided to end our night with a DoorDash order of some delicious ice cream! My mint Patty fro yo was more like just boring mint patty that they serve in your average local Nursing home! When you eat a clean diet and order a treat once a week it's as if pumpkin spice never existed "miserable".. jay gees has the best ice cream but PLEASE start being consistent with the add ons in the freshly whipped creamed ice! read more

Place is fun to take your kid and have some ice cream and play all the arcade games but I was appalled when I seen the manager pull a kid out of a goat car do not stopping right away .. & telling him he was gonna he brought out in BODY BAG by himself i will never take my children here ever again nor do I recommend it management threatens teens just having fun I watched him get into the teens face and tell him he was going to be brought out in a body bag instead of nicely professionally asking him to leave as any business should SO UNPROFESSIONAL WILL NOT BE BACK !!! Kid deserves and apology. read more

Ice cream is so delicious here! My friend and I discovered this place when we were going to college at UML. She always gets the chocolate soft serve- which she says is amazing! I always get a "kiddie" size hard packed mint patty frozen yogurt- which is massive! It's probably 2 giant scoops and it tastes so delicious! Before I was sold on the mint patty, I ordered the coffee cookies & cream, and also the cookie dough razzle. I mean, everything is good here- we go back as much as we can! read more

Ward & the Beav love this place. Great father/son bonding over go-cart racing, mini golf, batting cages & mini arcade. Get the fun pass, it's worth it. Ice cream is always good & they give you plenty. Perfect place to spend a couple hours on a sunny afternoon or eve. Plz tip your servers, a couple of my kids friends have worked here & they don't make minimum wage, so they rely on tips. read more

Great Ice Cream!! Large sizes, average pricing. They have many fun items to entertain the family. Ice Cream, Arcade, Mini-Golf, Go-Carts and Batting Cages. There is something to do for everyone making it a great stop with the family. We usually go for some ice cream and sometimes make our way into the arcade. If you are in the area I would say swing by and check it out you won't be disappointed. read more

Though the ice cream is still the best in the area I am disappointed in jow JG's is handling the Corvid virus policies. There are signs around stating 6 foot distancing but totally lacking on enforcement or mask use. Many employees in the Ice cream building not wearing masks, most of the amusement area staff not wearing them, and the security guard wondering around talking with guests and employees not even attempting 6 foot distancing not wearing a mask. If you are not trying to protect your employees, I have no confidence you are attempting to protect us, your quests. And why would you think the customers would honor your signs if your employees are not. Time to find another venue. read more

Great family spot, for good ice cream and plenty of family fun. Fam all got ice cream... great value for the quality, portion & price. Did the mini golf and go carts! Plenty of by one get one coupons out there so search for those before heading out! read more

Amazing place to bring kids! Bumper boats were a great addition on a hot day! My kids love their homemade ice cream and the price for a fun pass is such a great deal for one of each activity for hours of fun! So much cheaper than other local places and way better! read more

Excellent homemade ice cream! I splurged (calorie-wise) on a large black raspberry in a waffle cone. It was the biggest serving of ice cream I have ever seen. It was also very flavorful and fresh. We stopped here after mini golf and were very pleasantly surprised! Highly recommend! Also, the line moves very quickly. read more

I love their ice cream! They have every flavor you can think of! The arcade is extremely fun and the go karts are even better! Very fun place to hangout while having some yummy ice cream! read more

I live diagonally across the street from this establishment and my two kids just about live there in the summer months. We go there for ice-cream (a kiddie cone is huge) and then we have fun for a few hours on the go-carts, batting cages and the big game room. read more
