Literally drove by, pulled a U-turn, and had to give this ice cream spot a try! Loved how it looked old school and those are usually the ones that are the best. I'm glad I pulled the U-Turn The service here was great, people that enjoy their job. I asked for her recommendations and she delivered! Blueberry cobbler in a cup, and a chocolate w/Reese's Cup Cyclone. There is plenty of seats to grab some lunch and a treat to enjoy by yourself or with a group. Love that I stopped and will definitely stop again! read more

Had my first jiffy treet chili dog ! It really hit the spot. But what I came to rave about was their non-dairy ice cream. I couldn't tell that it was non-dairy except that it didn't upset my stomach. Try the lemon poppyseed and you won't regret it ! read more

Wonderful to use the Drive-Thru!! Got a couple of Hot Dogs, dressed the way we wanted. Tater Tots , french fries and water $11.00!! All served quickly with a smiling face!! Couldn't ask for more!! read more

Summer is coming and if you want ice cream and your close to Bloomington go here! This is a mom and pop establishment that has a huge menu! They had so many things that looked good! The strawberry shortcake ice cream I ordered was a 10 out of 10!! The taco burger also delicious! It's located right next to a nice looking putt putt course. You could walk to it. This place would hit the spot on hot days! read more

I've been going to Jiffy treat my whole life. There's never been anything I didn't like

Visited here for the first time today and will surely be back. Jiffy Treets' (that's the spelling they use) ice cream treats are awesome -- including frozen yogurt, vegan and "de-light" flavors for the dietarily (a word?) conscious. Their homemade ice cream is offered in a huge variety of delicious-sounding flavors. (Hubby had Peach Brandy, which he called "refreshing," especially its peach chunks. 92yo Mom had Mocha Almond Fudge, which was creamy, rich and chocolatey.) There are several other frozen treats available, too; Strawberry Shortcake, "Cyclones," sodas, smoothies, etc. My flavor of choice was the fat-free, sugar-free vanilla frozen yogurt. It was SO creamy and rich that I came close to doubting the healthy claim. But don't reserve your trip to Jiffy Treets for the next time you want something frozen. This place has great food! Our choices included chicken breast strips, fries, a foot-long hot dog and the garden salad ... all very good! Another customer told us he and his Mrs. come there for the Coney Dogs. Finally, the service is quick and eager to please, and all COVID cleanliness standards are apparently strictly practiced. When you're in Ellettsville or Bloomington, you simply must go to JT! (There's a Bedford location, too.) read more

Okay, this place has a Bloomington address, but know that it is in the Ellettsville town limits. Located along SR 46, the drive in ice cream shop is surrounded by parking and is located next to a miniature golf business. Surprisingly, the walk up window was available even in January, so I got out of my car and walked passed the outdoor seating (they have a pergola over some of the seats.) Although they offer some lunch options, I was here for ice cream. They have around 40 flavors to choose from. I settled on a Black Raspberry Truffle which has just a bit of chocolate in it. I ordered a medium dish and found the ice cream more creamy in texture than I had at their other location (weird, right?) There wasn't anything unique about this location, but if you are in the area and want ice cream options, support this local business instead of one of those nationwide businesses.

This is the second time we have devoured their delicious shakes. This is one of the 90 degree Summer days when you need something to cool you off. The drive through window had a line as long as Starbucks with two lanes. They have homemade ice cream, sherbet, yogurt, etc. Cones, shakes, cyclones...your heart desire. They have other food also. But on a ninety plus degree day all you want is some form of ice cream cold. The staff was great reminding of the walk up windows of my youth. If you need your vegetables with your ice cream, you can find them on the side of the complex in a pickup truck. read more

Love this ice cream place! The chocolate lovers is the best flavor with such great flavor and richness. 10/10 would recommend

Hot days call for a sweet summer treat and might I say this place has a variety. Right off the main road Jiffy Treet West has around 20 ice cream flavors to choose from aside from the soft serve options and mix in options. While this is a plus I was very disappointed in the Cookie Monster flavor. It was not at all what I expected when getting Cookie Monster. It had an odd mint taste too it and would have been better suited under a better name. Additionally the Hawaiian Luau Sunday was made with caned fruit and didn't have the best flavor combination as it was paired with a sorbet and not ice cream. The corn dog I ordered was the same as one you'd get from the frozen section of a Walmart or other grocery store. While the tables surrounding the building weren't clean I will say the staff was friendly. Overall I wouldn't wait in the long line to order again. read more

Good food nice place to have a ice cream and a little bit of food and it has a lot of varieties I love it. read more

Prepare to wait in a looong line, especially if the temperature outside is above 65 degrees. However, you can use that time to decide which flavor of ice cream you'll get given the many, many homemade options. While I don't think I would opt for blackberry cobbler again, I do think I'd have better luck with a more straightforward flavor. read more

I had never been to this location - today was the first and probably the last. The smoothies aren't made the same as the other location. My smoothie had tons of chunks of ice, it wasn't smooth at all. They quoted a price, then when they asked me to sign for the credit card - it was a different price. I asked about it and the girl said that is a fee I have to pay since I'm paying with a card. Very shady to not tell people this and ridiculous to charge for using a card. read more

The best tenderloin sandwich I've ever had! Their BBQ sauce is fabulous. Don't bother with drive thru- its a mess. read more

The food is great (I love the tenderloin and fries) and the ice cream is the best around. Unfortunately, you have to wait forever if you go through the drive through. They could eliminate a lot of this wait if, when you get to the window and your sandwich is not ready yet, they asked you to pull up front and the sandwich will be brought out when it is finished. But they have you wait at the window. That means any strictly ice cream orders, get held u for no reason. If I didn't like their sandwiches so much, I would not wait in that ridiculous long line! read more

Their made-from-scratch ice cream is the BEST you'll find anywhere. Especially the Butter Pecan. If you live in Monroe County or you're just passing thru, try it. You won't be disappointed. read more

Friendly staff, great ice cream and food items. Open all year long but Ellettsville gathering place in the summer.

Food is good, ice cream is delicious, service is great and orders are always correct. One star removed only because this place is always so busy (for good reason) and in 70+ years it seems they could expand somehow to accommodate the summer crowds. It would be great if they included a grill for burgers, as they currently don't have them at the original location. We're lucky to have such a great nostalgic place in north Monroe County. read more

ICE CREAM!!!! I stopped by here after a concert, happy to see that this place was still open after 9pm in October. A friend informed me that they had a soft-serve persimmon ice cream for Fall, which they had advertised on a sign outside of the stand. I decided to get a Peach Cobbler Cyclone (equivalent to a Blizzard) made with the persimmon soft-serve. IT WAS AMAZING! I ordered a small size, but was given a 16-20oz cup overflowing with ice-cream. (See picture.) I thought to myself, "Is this really a small?" These people don't hold back with how much ice cream they give you. I had asked for a sample of the pumpkin pie ice cream and was given a huge 2-bite size of ice cream instead of those little miniature-size spoons you get at other establishments. I was impressed with the extensive selection of flavors of ice-cream. (Again, persimmon! Where else can you get that flavor?) I will be coming back to try all of them! ;) read more

Amazing! My new favorite ice cream place. Great ice cream and so many options. Lots of seating available. Prices are very reasonable. Stop here for sure! read more

This is the second time I have been to Jiffy Treat and gotten a Sundae style Icecream that has way too much soft serve in the container and no lid provided when the item was ordered TO-GO. It spilled all over my wife and our nice car. I will not be returning to this establishment. read more

This place is F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S! They have TONS of varieties of homemade ice cream. I opted for the Oreo. So good. Lots of chunks of Oreo cookies in there. They also offer soft-serve ice cream. You can get a Cyclone (which is like a DQ Blizzard) and have the option to put in so many different toppings and sauces. Our service was good. There was a line, but they moved it along quickly. This will now be a MUST when we are on our way to visit our friends who live in Elletsville! read more

Great service and moderate prices! We would stop here again if ever in town! Thanks Jiffy Treet.

They have an extensive list of homemade ice creams and have a huge list of mix ins. Great place to grab a quick bite to eat too. They have a convenient drive thru as well. I live down the street from here and come often for a quick treat or meal. read more

The line is often long and the wait can be too...but it is all good! The ice cream concoctions are divine and well worth your time in line. Whether you are having a double scoop of chocolate chip mint and death by chocolate on a waffle cone or a yummy ooey gooey Banana Split you can't go wrong with Jiffy Treat West. It's the perfect place to hang out with friends, your latest crush, or your family on a hot night in Ellettsville! Oh i failed to mention that their drive-in food holds it's own as well. Who can resist ordering a cheeseburger and fries or some delicious onion rings before or after that famous Jiffy Treat Ice Cream! read more

Trip to the area with intentions of going to another ice cream place in the next town over but discovered this place instead. Great find, homemade ice cream. I went for 2 scoops, one each mint chip and mint Oreo, outstanding. Plentiful amount of chocolate chips and oreo cookie. Creamy Traditional style ice cream stand that sadly I don't have at home. Bonus that it appears to be open all year round. read more

Jiffy Treat is my favorite ice cream option when I visit Bloomington. I may be a little nostalgic because I used to frequent them when I went to school 15 years ago. Their soft serve is delicious, creamy, and not over-the-top sweet. Their waffle cones are fresh, crisp, and tasty. Service is fast. What more could you want? Definitely give this a try if you are in the area. read more

The blackberry cobbler ice cream is on point. I would like to try some of the other ice cream flavors, but with an ice cream as good as the blackberry cobbler, I'm too scared to try something else. read more

Milkshake was legit chocolate milk and their was no ice cream in it or it was all melted. Literally horrible.

So on July 12, 9:15 P.M. I was in line for the drive thru. Right around 9:30 P.M. some of the employees put out the cones and blocked the entrance as I was the last one in line. At about 10:03 P.M. I finally was the next car as the lady in front of me just finished her order. As I pulled up waiting for someone to come onto the intercom, a young lady said sorry we are closed. I told her that I was the last car before they put up the cones and I waited patiently here for 45 min. She said sorry we are done serving for the night. I completely understand that your business closes at 10:00 P.M. what I do not understand is that if I was the last car to be in line and I was in before the cones were put up, why wasn't I served? You guys need a better system on who should be served last in the drive-thru as well as the walk up window. I have been going to that place of business for a long time and now I am second guessing, if that is how the business is ran. Truly disappointed and not satisfied at all! Matt read more

Jiffy Treet is one of the best places to get ice cream in town, but the girls that work there are not nice. Multiple times myself and some others have overheard the girls not talking nice about the customers standing at the window! Just because the window is shut doesn't mean it's sound proof. read more

Jiffy Treet is destination dining for us these days. They serve a delicious tenderloin sandwich. It's meaty, lightly coated, and only hangs over the large bun by a reasonable amount. The lettuce, tomato and purple onion are always top quality. We like it so much it's what we always order and have never been disappointed. Their semi-slushy lemonade is unusual, refreshing and another item we always enjoy. The ice cream is the bomb. Try a Black Raspberry Hot Fudge Sundae. The hardest part is figuring out which of the many ice cream flavors to have, but you can't go wrong with any of them. They also sell pints and quarts to take home. We've always gotten cheerful, friendly service at the drive-up. It moves pretty quickly and they always get our order perfect to the last detail. Parking on the grass in their woodsy lawn area is allowed. Worth the drive from Hwy37 or from McCormick's Creek State Park. read more

The food, the ice cream, the ice, the Pepsi.... everything is just delicious. Might have a little longer wait on some food items, but seriously it's so good. No matter where you are heading, a stop at Jiffy Treet is a must. read more

Besides the ice cream, I love the taco salad, super nachos and sloppy joe! And the fried pickle spears with ranch....yum!

This is a classic ice cream place with many years of local history and loyalty. There is a good variety of food and confections to satisfy any needs or tastes. Take your kids and get on down if you have never been. read more
