Huge selection
Fadee A.

Best ice cream shop I've ever been to!!! Huge selection; plenty of flavors I've never seen at a grocery store, like Popcorn Brittle, Brambleberry Crisp, and Pink Bubble Gum. Got mine in a waffle bowl and it did not disappoint. Friendly, helpful staff, and a nice atmosphere in a great area.

Jeni's is my favorite place for cold & creamy sweetness! With only two young ladies working this Sunday, service was slower than usual but their friendliness made up the difference! If you're not in a hurry go check out a few of their new flavors like their Bridgerton Queen Charlotte (an almond buttercream with raspberry-rose jam and honey creation) or one of my classic favorites - the Goat Cheese & Cherries (think cherry cheesecake but with a twist)! Both are sooo yummy! I noticed they've added more outdoor seating, which some were taking advantage of, even on this chilly but pleasant day! Enjoy!

Ice cream in Buttercrisp Waffle Cones

GET THE WAFFLE BOWL, not the waffles cone. I wish I had a pic of the mess my husband had as he tried to eat his cone faster than the ice cream could melt! Tonight the line wasn't too long when we got to Jeni's, only 3 couples in front of us until we got to the door. It still took almost 30 minutes to leave with the frozen delight that we came for. By the time we were leaving the park, the line was at least 10 deep waiting outside that door. It's Monday night, I can't even begin to imagine a Sunday afternoon. Jeni's touts its molecular makeup. How the milk proteins build something which causes something to do something else. Cool. But what I care about - how does it taste? Absolutely amazing! Creamy, flavor forward, absolutely decadent. It is as perfect as ice cream gets. I ordered tonight's special - the goose tracks bowl. 1/2 scoop each of goose tracks, honey vanilla and double dough all snug together in a waffle bowl. All three flavors were keepers but the vanilla (vanilla? Really?) was by far my fave. Try it yourself....just wear comfy shoes.

Wonderful location near locations serving wine, food and dessert. There is some seating inside but most are outside and at the adjacent small outdoor park. All the flavors I've tasted have been really tasty and creamy. One of their unique flavors is Sweet Cream Biscuits and Peach Jam and you can actually taste the biscuits. Will continue to try as many flavors as I can.

Two scoops in Buttercrisp Waffle Cones

Fabulous fresh ice cream with fun flavors. I had coffee with cream and powdered jelly donut in a cup. My husband tried the fluffernutter pie and butter cake. All were yummy! Lots of choices and samples. Homemade waffle cone too! Wish we had one in our town.

Front store

Great location with lots of restaurants near by and plenty of parking with two garages near by or street parking. (Parking is free). The have outside tables and in a park like setting that attracts families with small children. Always seems to be a long wait for ice cream and upon each visit they seem to be out of something. This recent visit, they were only taking credit, said their waffle machine was broken, and couldn't print receipts. I think given the crowd and only 3 employees working they probably didn't have the time or energy to make waffle cones or refill the register with receipt. Bummer as I missed getting my reward points. Will stick to the factory Jeni's for future visits.

Kids scoop & a trio. Trio: lavender, darkest chocolate, and salty caramel.

Jeni's is the best ice cream I've ever had, truly. Is it cheaper to find their pints on sale at Publix, Kroger, or Target? Sure. BUT sometimes it's just a fun treat to go sample a bunch of the seasonal flavors and get a waffle cone or mix of flavors. Their staff members are typically super kind and informative. This location is cute, clean, and bright. Close to the interstate too, if you're commuting and just need a sweet treat at the end of a long day! I love that there is a fun outdoor area next to this shop if you want to enjoy nice weather as well.

What can you say? Picture says it all.... YUM
Cissy W.

Jeni's any location is fine by me. This is a small stand alone but the same friendly servers offering samples and serving up great ice cream. Perfect conclusion for an evening out, it's situated on a nice green space area. Enjoy!

New flavors
Elizabeth B.

Jeni's always delivers & this location is so adorable with friendly staff ready to help you find the best choice for you! I love the newer tahini oat chocolate cookies flavor and highly recommend! Cutest vibes with how they designed this spot & even cuter items for sale!

Wildberry Lavender
Ankur V.

Always a delight to get some Jenis! Their ice cream is a bit pricey but it's delicious. Some of the best I've ever had. This spot is brand new it seems and is the cutest little thing. People are nice and service is happy as always. Will probably make this our regular for ice cream.

This place is absolutely a cute place for a delicious ice cream. This is local brand and there ice cream is one of the best I have tasted lately. They do have different kind of flavors compared to other franchises. They do make fresh waffles cup and cones on site then and there. You can smell delicious waffle as soon as you enter. I am not a chocolate fan so I always try different flavors. We took gooey butter ice cream and almond brittle icecream and loved it. There service is quick and fast too. They provide you nice samples so you can taste and choose what you like so you won't get disappointed after you buy it. My fav is Gooey butter icecream and I would definitely recommend it. Gooey butter cake- 5/5 Almond brittle - 4/5 Vanilla bean - 4/5

Blackout Chocolate Cake, Banana Brûlée, and Ooey Gooey Butter Cake
Parker S.

Jeni's is always the favorite ice cream place in town for is to go. I'm loving that they keep expanding their footprint and making it easier to spread the best ice cream around! This particular store is small, modern, and very nice on the inside. A lot of seating right outdoors in a fun up-and-coming area. Employees were nice as always at Jeni's locations. The ice cream: I got Banana Brûlée, Blackout chocolate cake, and Ooey Gooey butter cake. Not a very colorful set of ice cream, but the taste would knock anyones socks off. The blackout chocolate is exactly how it sounds... deep dark chocolate with a bitterness to it. The gooey butter cake is always my favorite and is buttery, sweet, and delicious. The banana brûlée is like a bananas foster dessert! Overall, I love coming to new ice cream places, and I know Jeni's never disappoints. Give it a go!

We asked if staff could use a…read moreclean scoop and serve from a clean or unopened tub from the back to reduce gluten cross-contact. Staff told us they were not allowed to do that and could only serve from what was already in front. There was also a posted Kilwins "Handling Allergen Requests" notice stating that stores should not open a fresh tub, use separate scoops, or implement special handling procedures for allergy requests. I understand no ice cream shop can guarantee allergen-free food. However, families with celiac disease should know this location would not take even basic cross-contact precautions such as a clean scoop or clean/unopened tub. Because of that, my daughter could not safely order. Very disappointing experience. In Response to owner : Hi Ashley, I appreciate your response, but this actually highlights the concern. Saying that using a clean scoop or an unopened tub "would not make a product safer" is very troubling for families with celiac disease. Those steps may not eliminate all risk in a shared environment, but they absolutely can reduce one obvious source of gluten cross-contact: shared scoops and front tubs that may have been touched by cones, cookies, brownies, or other gluten-containing items. We were not asking Kilwins to guarantee that anything was gluten-free or allergen-free. We understand there is still risk in a shared environment. We were asking for basic cross-contact precautions so we could make an informed decision. What is disappointing is that Kilwins' policy appears to remove that choice entirely by refusing to take any special handling steps, even when a family clearly understands the remaining risk. For a child with celiac disease, being told that the store will not even use a clean scoop or unopened tub is not "keeping customers safe" -- it means the customer is effectively excluded from being able to participate. I appreciate that your intent may be to avoid misleading people, but the better approach would be to say: "We cannot guarantee no cross-contact, but we can use a clean scoop and unopened tub upon request." Families with celiac disease deserve accurate information and reasonable precautions, not a blanket refusal.

Looking for a yummy frozen treat on a hot summer's day? Look no further! La Paleteria Ice Cream…read moreShop is here to satisfy your cravings! This little family owned Mexican frozen treat joint is located in a strip mall with ample parking just a few minutes south of Nashville. The staff is kind and the inside is very cutely decorated! There are TONS of vegan and dairy free options here as well! Spicy Mango Paleta- This was a vegan water based Mexican popsicle. It was made of raw mangoes and chill powder. It had a sweet flavor with just the right amount of kick. I loved having the option of getting a salty and savory desert here. This tasted incredible and I can't wait to get another one soon. The size was perfect for one serving. They even created a small paper boat for me to put the popsicle on so that if it started melting it wouldn't drip all over me. This is such a common problem that they have found a solution to! Much appreciated. Ferrero Rocher Ice Cream- I got one scoop which was actually probably equivalent to two or three. They are definitely generous with their servings. This was some yummy hazelnut creamy goodness. It was just the right amount of sweet and not too overpowering. I only spent about $6.00 for both items, which was a great value. I can't wait to come back and try more flavors of their yummy frozen treats. I definitely want to give their mangonada a try next time too. I highly recommend this business!

It comes with nuts, granola, and coconut flakes. The service was ok although it could have been friendlier. There was a foosball table for your entertainment. Would definitely come back to try some other things.

Confused about all these negative reviews. Maybe there was a little span of time during the…read morepandemic where the shop was not functioning at its best, but now, it's great. The store itself is SO cute and aesthetic on the inside. You barely have to interact with the workers to make your froyo happen. You get to choose which size cup (choose wisely because you pay based on weight) to fill up. They have a bunch of froyo flavors, my favorite being cake batter. Put as much as you want in and move over to the topping dispensers. I'm a big fan of the chocolate rocks, non pareils, and m&ms. My only qualm here is that sometimes you dispense the candy and just get powder, but you can get around this by turning it until the candy comes out properly. Next, go to the self topping bar, where I recommend cookie dough, any fruit, chocolate chips, etc. (Avoid gummies, they get really really hard). Top with hot fudge and whipped cream (no need to go light on that one since it weighs almost nothing!), and then pop it on the scale to get weighed. I used a small cup, packed it with froyo, toppings, and whipped cream, it came out to 6.8oz, and it was just over $5. I really don't think that's a bad deal at all!! I'm a big fan of sweet ceces, and the fact that this one is in downtown Franklin (great place to walk around) is awesome.

My main negative with this place would be the staff. They were on their phones the whole time until we were standing in front of the register and weren't very friendly.
