Fun inside space
Jennifer N.

I've passed this spot many times, driving down Lone Tree and finally decided to stop by on a warm Sunday afternoon. Nice, clean and bright space with friendly staff. The price for a scoop is $3.50 and there's a lot of unique flavors. I was torn between the Ube and Chai but opted for the Ube. It was a nice texture -not too heavy and not too icy. Perfect portion for a weekend treat. There's not a lot of seating, so it's more of a grab and go spot. Steady stream of customers but they kept things moving. I'll be back in the summer to try out more flavors!

My wife and kids come here all the time, it is their go to spot for ice cream in the area. They always have a solid rotation of flavors, and everyone behind the counter is always very nice. If you follow them on social media, you get an additional 10% off. Not much to say about ambience it gives off old school ice cream parlor vibes. A counter stuffed full of different flavors and three people behind the bar ready to help you. I recommend you try the banana nut in the Ube brownie. We went on a Wednesday night at 8:30 and they had a line, but it went by quick and the kids enjoyed it very much

*** one scoop is never enough *** John's has been around a long time scoops use to cost .99! I believe it's under new management the scoops are now 3.99 kinda pricey. The ice cream flavors and options have not changed they are all so good! They have unique flavors like red velvet, nutty coconut, banana nut, chai, ube, mocha almond and coffee and more ! John's offer a lot of different cone options and waffle bowls. They have pre packed flavors too. I have always been a BIG fan this is one of my happy places. "You can't buy happiness, but you can buy ice cream, and that's kind of the same thing." AMBIANCE: family friendly PRICE: reasonable OPTIONS: ice cream, sundaes, shakes FLAVORS: a whole of goodness SPACE: cute a little bit PARKING: free and limited STAFF: super cool ask for a sample

The place is very clean and spic n span. The service is with a smile which enhances the experience. The ice creams served are pretty good and with varied flavors, everyone will have his favorite. Mine is simple vanilla!

Always wanted to check this place out since it's very popular among the locals.... Loved the customer service very friendly & helpful suggestions since it was my first time everything seemed tempting... I tasted few samples before deciding... I ordered strawberry cheesecake & butter scotch in a cup , husband went for vanilla( his all time favorite) in waffle cone. Loved the ambiance from kids to grown ups everyone love coming to this place... loved their decor. Will definitely come back to try their various options...

If you're looking for some yummy, homemade ice cream, this is the place! The shop was clean, the service was great, and they have so many flavors to choose from. I'm talking Cookies & Cream, Cookie Monster, Ube Brownie, and more. Everything we tried was delicious. This spot has easily become one of my top three ice cream places in the area. Highly recommend!

Generous scoop

Excellent in-house ice cream with unique flavors such as coconut pineapple, ube, pistachio, mango, etc. and staff was friendly and helpful. Cute & fun indoors & outdoor seatings.

top to bottom: butterscotch, mango, killer brownie
Dipali S.

We stopped by for some ice cream after dinner and were pleasantly overwhelmed by the number of options! The owner Nathan was super friendly and let us taste multiple flavors before we decided on which ones we wanted. The shop has a very lively atmosphere and every flavor we tried was delicious. Can't wait to try more flavors the next time we're back in the area!

Ube milkshake
David P.

I had no idea this place existed and it's one of the few ice cream shops that have Ube as a flavor. I ordered two milkshakes one ube and another chocolate banana and was I impressed. The ice cream was rich and creamy and the flavors were delightful. I will definitely be coming back when I need another sweet treat.

Inside

Really friendly service, I had 2 samples and then got a peanut butter chocolate milkshake. The ambience was fun and inviting. Lots of pictures of different promos they had going on.

Cute indoor set up
Mel B.

This is the go-to spot for homemade icecream! They make delicious unique flavors (I love the rose granola and ube) and of course the classic flavors (love their cookies and cream). The staff is always super patient and helpful, especially when we're trying samples. The shop is clean and they have a cute photo-op wall and benches insides, plus tables and chairs outside. I've been a few times, and they never disappoint. Love this spot!

Ice cream is freshly made and lots of unique flavors almost compared to Ben & Jerry's, but not as chunky, but I would say just as good

We usually stop by Sip & Scoop whenever we're in Brentwood, and we've noticed it has changed a lot…read moreover time. The place looks really nice now--such a pleasant spot to sit, enjoy your treats, and relax, especially with kids. The ice cream is always delicious, and we absolutely love their affogato. I was also amazed that they go by cups--we got a lot for the large cups, which felt like great value! I did want to share a small piece of feedback about our recent visit. In the past, water was available in small jars, but now it's set up in a larger dispenser. After ordering ice cream, we went to grab some water, but it had run out. I let the staff member in front know, and she kindly explained that they were out, which I completely understood. However, another staff member suddenly commented that there was no water and that if I wanted some, I should buy and pay for it. It was a bit surprising--not because of the policy, but because of the tone, which came across as a bit harsh. Maybe she was just having a bad day, which I can understand, but the delivery didn't feel very welcoming. I want to emphasize that I have no issue paying for water at all; in fact, I planned to go back to the car after ice cream to get water since we parked nearby. It was just the way it was said that didn't sit well. I didn't say anything at the moment since I understand everyone can have off days, but I do think consistency in how customers are spoken to is important--others might not take that tone as lightly. When I sat down, another staff member came over and offered my family water. If you happen to read this--thank you. Your kindness really meant a lot to us. Overall, we still enjoy coming here for the great ice cream, generous portions, and the cozy atmosphere. Sharing this as feedback because we enjoy this place and would love to keep having great experiences here.

I would have marked for 4 stars but I've noticed that the owners don't read my reviews if it is 4…read moreor 5 stars The only issue was while waiting, I noticed another customer come in after us but already got her order. I said out loud because I was sitting outside that if she got her order already that means ours should have already been done. The customer after us ordered the same item we picked and she just took it BUT the employee should've known that she is the next and since I said it so loudly the lady heard me and said oh this might be yours. I took it from her when she handed it to me. We were going to wait another longer time just because the employee gave it to the wrong customer first. PLEASE take names for the order please!! They called out the item, if that, then please notice who ordered FIRST of same item. I would have been mad if we had to wait, my star rating would be 2...besides that the bubble waffle Nutella works was good Small location but spacious with seating inside and out. Located between a lounge and a brewery Mural across the street, street parking
