    Cayenne Sea Salt Caramel and Mint Cookies N' Cream
    Brielle H.

    PSA: TRY THE CAYENNE SEA SALT CARAMEL !!! The ice cream is amazing, and the cones are the perfect texture and amount of sweetness. My second scoop was the mint cookies and cream--I also highly recommend. Everyone was very sweet and the service was efficient. Bonus: you get a delicious little cookie with your cone. Perfect place for a sweet treat!

    A tiny little spot in the shopping center. I was walking up Third Street to shop and get a feel for Encinitas. After a bit of walking, I saw the sign for Jojo's and figured I'd get myself some ice cream. I had hiked 8.5 miles that morning so it was reasonable to treat myself! I ordered a waffle cone and two scoops - one coconut something (like an almond joy) and mud pie (coffee ice cream/brownies). The coconut scoop was on top, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The mud pie was below and by that point I was already getting full. I got one piece of brownie and it was just too rich for me. I should have stuck with just one flavor - and the coconut was much better. You get a free cookie with every ice cream you order, but I declined mine because I wasn't planning to eat it and didnt want it to go to waste. There's plenty of seating outside in the courtyard near the fountain. It was a pleasant place to sit and savor my sweet treat. I would come back again!

    Cute

    Jojo's has it going on! Ice cream chillin', chillin', ice cream chillin' Ice cream chillin', chillin', ice cream chillin' Brought in midday Saturday. Love the vibe in here. Lots of flavors. Ones I've never heard of. Greeted with a smile. I asked to taste a couple flavors. They use metal spoons for tasting. Refreshing to not have that waste. I got the cayenne sea salt caramel and the Nibby chocolate. Perfect combo. The sea salt had that heat from the cayenne that paired with the chocolate very well. They had other unique flavors like lavendar, carrot cake, and ginger lemon honeycomb. With your purchase of ice cream you get a cute little chocolate chip cookie. They have a gluten free option too. Grabbed napkins and headed out. What a great stop. The ice cream was amazing. Hit the spot.

    I stopped by this ice cream shop because I happened to be in the area. I ordered two scoops: the apple caramel crumble and mint cookies n' cream. It was really rich, delicious ice cream. And based on the sign in the shop it's organic and completely local. That didn't make it more healthy but it did make me feel like I contributing to local food artisans. It also comes with a small cookie. It's a really nice place for a treat. The woman who served me behind the counter was friendly and the shop has a nice vibe to it. One thing though: it's pricey. The JoJo, which is smaller than the regular, is $7.50.

    I enjoyed the diversity of flavors at Jojo's Creamery and the allergens labels on each flavor. There are many gluten free and nut free options. I tried the peanut butter cup and chocolate flavors. The chocolate was rich and creamy but both flavors were a bit icy. You get a free mini cookie which each purchase and there were labeled gluten free options which was an awesome little extra. Overall the ice cream was tasty but the portion size was pretty small for $7.50

    I got the jojo with mud pie and coconut munds as my 2 flavors. All the ice cream comes with a complimentary mini chocolate chip cookie! The ice cream and the cookie were both delicious. The staff were not friendly though and gave me the smallest sample spoon imaginable. I could barely taste it. The interior is very small so we sat outside at one of the tables to enjoy our ice cream.

    I ate it too fast sorry

    What on gods green earth.... This place is soooooo good. I had their butter rum pecan ice cream and WOW.... Also, their waffle cone is the best waffle cone I've ever had so there's that. To top it off, the chocolate chip they give you is moist and perfect. We ended up here because the lines at Cali Cream & Gelato 101 were too long and now I'll never eat at another ice cream place again. That is all, goodbye

    Vegan Chocolate Chip (GF) with a cookie

    After grabbing dinner nearby, we decided to end the night with a light dessert at JoJo's Creamery. It's a small casual ice cream store specializing in gluten free and vegan ice cream options. They use coconut milk and oat milk for many of their flavors which is a great alternative to cow's milk. They let you sample flavors if you'd like. I opted to get the vegan chocolate chip which was tasty. The free mini cookie was a sweet addition to the ice cream. Free parking in the lot which was nice. Several tables outside on the patio. Price ranges from $6.75-9.75 for ice cream. They also offer to go pint sizes for $13.

    Regular dish , 3 flavors

    Mmmm yummy It's a beautiful day in Encinitas and I was dying for ice cream . I thought to go to a place up the road which is "ok" but saw the sign for Jo Jo's and stopped in. Very friendly and quick service . I got a "regular" cup which allows 3 flavors. I got vanilla bean (always have to try vanilla) butter rum pecan and bananas foster. Banana is a very hard flavor to get right and they did! $9 for the regular and I think the portion to price was just right and I also got a free cookie which also was excellent . I really enjoyed everything about the place and I'll be back

    Lavender ice cream

    We stumbled on JoJo's while eating at a nearby restaurant and someone walked by eating an ice cream cone. We searched for ice cream shops and found JoJo's. The lavender ice cream was fire. The staff was amazing and let's not talk about those chocolate chip cookies that will keep you coming back for more. This place is flat out awesome.

    The ladies were super nice and really helpful when it came to my daughter's allergies. They used different sample spoon and scoop and even offered to open a new ice cream in case of cross contamination. Amazing service! We went with the Jojo and got the chocolate chip ice cream. She loved it and said it was delicious! Great spot to stop at when walking the 101. Lots of seating outside to just sit and relax. Also came with a little cookie.

    Outside sign

    Cute little shop. From the moment we walked in, the staff was friendly and welcoming. They were patient and happy to let us sample flavors before deciding. The ice cream was really good...smooth, creamy texture and great flavor. They also claim ice cream is made in-house without unnecessary chemicals or additives, which is always a plus. Our entire family enjoyed it.

    Cookie and ice cream
    Samuel F.

    Shivani was amazing service with a smile. The cookie was the cherry on top. The freshly made waffle cones are awesome and the ice cream was super good. I'm from Texas and the pecans were superb. Can't wait to come back.

    Ask the Community - JoJo's Creamery

    Is the ice cream organic or at least GMO free?

    If you click on JoJo's "More Info" section, all the milk they use is organic and most of the ingredients are homemade.

    Hi! I noticed on the website for the vegan options it read that coconut and cashew milk is used. Do some flavors solely use coconut milk or is it a mixture of both coco/cashew (I'm allergic to cashews)?

My favorite is 100% black tie tiramisu. The least favorite was the banana cream pudding- most likely due to the diary free aspect. 4 stars overall. Seating may be challenging but with our visit being on a warm night, crowds opted to stand outside or ended up sitting in truck beds.

Because when I want the really good stuff, I make it myself in my Lello 4080 Musso Lussino Ice Cream Maker. Yeah, the ice cream that maxhine produces is positively divine. But when I want the good stuff without all the prep & cleanup, Wynston's is where I'm going. The quality is top notch & the creatve flavors they come up with are amazing. Service is always friendly. My favorite way to enjoy Wynston's is the ice cream flight with 4 small scoops of different flavors. While parking right in front of the place is often taken, there's a free garage nearby they validate for. So, if you love you some ice cream, head on over to Wynston's. You can take it from someone who makes their own frozen sweet creamy confections, Wynston's is the really good stuff.

They really only send out important emails...so, for that...KUDOS! They have their email marketing dialed in... My fiancé and I shared a flight, as we usually do. It's really the best way to sample all their delicious flavors. I had to try their monthly flavor, 'What's Up, Doc?'. Carrot Cake Ice Cream? How?! Well, it's true. They turned a classic cake into delicious ice cream. The other 3 flavors... Obrigaderia Brazilian Truffle Lemon & the Blueberry Swirls Parmesan Apricot We couldn't pick a favorite flavor this time. All of them stood out in their own way. Such a cute little storefront...two tables inside, but plenty of seating outside. I remember when they were across the street, even smaller storefront....and now they have TWO locations in San Diego county. Team members are always smiling. You can tell the owners care about their employees...there's a sign up....this is a no-tip business. They pay their employees a livable wage. That, in itself, speaks volumes!

Kia was incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely sweet. She gracefully listened while I shared a little of my story, offered compassion, and then proceeded to create what may have been the most ridiculously delicious dessert I've ever had. We did a gluten-free double chocolate + chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich with toasted marshmallow ice cream, drizzled with hot fudge, and they heated it up... I am not exaggerating when I say I nearly cried. Actually, I did cry (just lost my job and It was that good ).
