    Ice cream
    David Y.

    food: good ice cream, unique flavors service: nice helpful staff ambiance: great sweet treat stop

    Ice cream

    Here we go... You like good vibes? You like cool people watching? You like samples? Well this place is for you! The staff is pleasant and gives great service. The flavors are intensely delicious. You like pistachio? Go nuts! I recommend this and give it two thumbs up! Got it? Good.

    Scattered all over Chicago, you'd surely bump into Jeni's Ice Cream and you shouldn't bypass it. We hit up the one in Logan Square as it was walking distance from our stay. They do come up with unique flavors and seasonal ones. I had the Sweet Cream Biscuit and Peach Jam; it was light, almost sorbet-like but texture was something like a gelato. Yet the flavor is robust. I enjoyed it thoroughly. The place was super cute, and quite clean and the staff was patient with my kids trying new flavors and forcing me to do the same. Nice to meet you, Jeni.

    What's better than having Jeni's in one state? Having it in two! We stopped by while exploring the nearby farmers market, and got two cones of the coffee flavor which our helpful server told us was made with Intelligensia coffee. The location wasn't too busy so there was plenty of space to sit inside, though with how delicious the ice cream was, our cones were gone pretty quick!

    It's always such a great feeling to step foot inside a Jenis. They always have the best attitude and the best customer service. Jenis Splendid Ice Creams has the most exotic flavors that you won't find anywhere else. And they literally don't mind if you want to try all the flavors. They definitely have the patience here for that. I of course didn't try all of them, but I sure felt like I did. I tried a lot of good flavors, it was a little overwhelming, but I ultimately decided to go with a scoop of their Sweet Cream Biscuits & Peach Jam. It was really delicious and something different. My wife got a scoop of their Brown Butter Almond Brittle. It was also pretty good. You honestly can't go wrong with anything they offer here. Will definitely be returning.

    My friend was craving some Jeni's and I will say it hit the spot. The person that was serving us really gave suggestions and knew all the different flavors. I will say an item that is over looked is the drinks. I got the root beer and will say it was one of the best ones I have had in a while!

    Mind you,  Holy icicles! So splendid!  No wonder it's in the name! Nebula Berry!!! With their seasonal toppings, "Space Dust!!!!"

    Mind you, I've seen their icecream at the groceries but never got them due to KETO. But.... Holy, moley!!! I'm addicted to their line of exotic ice creams! The texture, the flavors, the creations!!!!! So splendid! No wonder it's in the name! This place gets the "cheat day" savior card. (I only started trying their icecream since they have the Spring time collection, which is hard to want to not try!!!! With their seasonal toppings, "Space Dust!!!!" Nebula Berry Pint Buttercrisp Waffle Wedges Space Dust bambleberry. I had the best sampling in a long while. I've put my KETO research aside. For this, the summer experience of flavors that are so natural and pleasing to the taste. Very good service where they allow you and explain the flavors, which got me much more hyped. I don't feel as heavy or sick from this sugar content (with guided servings) but this for sure is one I'd put for a good dessert. Cheat day or not. Just to even enjoy on any day!!! There is plenty to try out here, and I definitely recommend the Spring collection of Pink Stargonuat a great series that I will miss, once its gone.... Thus... I suggest you try it! At least the Space Dust with the Nebula Berry. My absolute favorite!

    There was a long line to get in but it moved quickly. Staff was super friendly letting us taste ice cream and giving facts about each one. The flavors combinations were inventive and interesting. Loved the consistency of the ice cream but Protip...two half scoops is plenty. This ice cream is extremely rich.

    Jenis Purple cone

    This is for all the Olivia Rodrigo fans- witness the PURPLE waffle cone! I had the brown butter almond brittle and the sweet potato marshmallow brûlée. How could you possibly go wrong!

    What a fun way to explore not only ice cream but the entire ice cream field! I have never seen so many choices of coe creams and so highly rated! Wow. Give them a try- salted caramel. Cognac with gingerbread. White chocolate peppermint. Mexican hot chocolate. Go for it. Try one. Try them all.

    brambleberry crisp, texas sheet cake, rainbow
    Kelly L.

    We always love jeni's! Got the texas sheet cake which had a lovely rich chocolate flavor and bits of chocolate cake!! The rainbow was a nice refreshing tart citrusy flavor while also being creamy! Lastly, brambleberry crisp is always our go to as it is the best flavor for a fruity sweet to creamy taste! Jeni's never disappoints :)

    The new location is OPEN! After a long day of looking at spreadsheets, some ice cream was well-deserved and very appreciated. This was my first ever Jeni's experience, but I have long heard the buzz. I invited a friend who lives nearby to meet me, and we both got ourselves half and half scoops. She got the coffee and coconut, which she said was delicious. I got the banana brulee and blackout chocolate cake, which were amazing. The blackout chocolate cake is super indulgent and rich, so I'm glad I paired it with something a little lighter like the banana brulee. I would definitely get both again. Service was fast and pleasant, and there was no wait because some people foolishly think ice cream is a summer treat. Ice cream is an all-the-time time treat!

    Visited this Jeni's location during my first visit to Chicago recently and they were amazing as always. We got the brambleberry crisp and cold brew with coconut cream (pictured). This was my first time trying both of these flavors and they were both great - only criticism was that the cold brew with coconut cream was a little 'icier' and less 'creamy' than I expected. However, the flavors were perfect. The inside space was cozy and familiar like other Jeni's locations I have visited and I can definitely see us coming back again next time we're in the area!

    Love the flavor variety

    Obviously if I go somewhere that has a Ghirardelli, I'm making it a point to stop by during my…read moretrip. And so it was that we found ourselves inside this location of Ghirardelli during our Chicago trip. I wound up ordering what I always order, the World Famous Hot Fudge Sundae ("Vanilla ice cream and handmade hot fudge topped with whipped cream, diced almonds, a cherry, and a Milk Chocolate Caramel Square"). It was ready within minutes and of course it's terrific. All the components work so well together, and that hot fudge sauce remains one of my favorite things ever. (Do I wish they had included more of it? Yes, absolutely.) Don't ever change, Ghirardelli. You're great. (And please come to Canada some day!)

    While visiting Chicago lately and wanting to warm up with a nice, warm beverage, my friend and I…read morecame across the Chicago Ghirardelli Ice Cream & Chocolate Shop on Michigan Avenue, and we immediately went inside and upstairs to place an order for hot chocolate. And we certainly are glad we did...it was delicious!! While Ghirardelli Chocolate was founded in San Francisco in 1852, Chicago is fortunate to have a vibrant and welcoming shop where any visitors can indulge in the ultimate chocolate experience whether purchasing chocolate gifts or placing an order at their made in-house restaurant upstairs. They make decadent hot fudge sundaes with handmade hot fudge made fresh daily from Ghirardelli Chocolate along with a sample signature chocolate square. This particular store is open on Monday through Thursday from 11 AM to 9 PM, Friday from 11 AM to 10 PM, Saturday from 10 AM to 11 PM, and Sunday from 10 AM to 9 PM. I jumped at ordering a Classic Hot Cocoa, which offers a luxuriously deep chocolate flavor that comes through their beverage while topped with whipped cream and dusted with cocoa powder. It was served with a milk chocolate caramel Ghirardelli square. They also served shakes, coffee drinks, and more along with their huge chocolate Pick & Mix selection (where you choose your own flavors), chocolate gifts, chocolate bars, and chocolate gift bags. Go to their website (https://www.ghirardelli.com) and sign up for their e-mail newsletter to receive 15% off an order while also receiving e-mails with special offers. Another deal is that you can get free standard shipping on orders of $75 or more. I'm already dreaming of my next Ghirardelli made in-house beverage and chocolate square. Yum!!!

    I had a super special date at Margie's with my 2 year old, and we had the best time ever. What I…read morelove about Margie's is that it's frozen in time. It's pretty small inside, there are only a few tables. A server comes to your table to place your order, which I feel like never happens at ice cream shops anymore! The menu is huge! There were multiple sections to banana splits, sundaes, and shakes. We decided to go with something simple. My son ordered 2 scoops of cookies n cream ice cream (with sprinkles of course) and I got moose tracks! The ice cream is the real deal. Our server was super sweet, and we were in and out of there in probably 30-45 minutes. We had the best time and will definitely be back this summer.

    We heard that Margie's Candies had some seriously good sundaes, so obviously we had to check the…read moreplace out. (The fact that the joint's been around for over 100 years doesn't hurt either.) It's a small restaurant but we managed to snag a cozy table near the back. We'd already spent most of the day eating, so we decided to share the Atomic Fudge Sundae. It's a fairly enormous concoction. I found it interesting that the hot fudge was served on the side, but it's actually pretty smart because you get control how much (or how little) sauce you get. The ice cream is the highlight. It's creamy and rich, and it's got a really nice flavor, too. The hot fudge was less impressive, but that might be because I had already eaten a Ghirardelli sundae earlier in the day and their hot fudge just can't be beat. The service was super friendly and the atmosphere was kitschy and fun. It's a cool place.
