They've got their "naughty" menu with alcohol named flavors and a "nice" side, plus a full vegan lineup (which is rare and very appreciated). I went with the vegan lemon poppy seed and it was unreal--bright, creamy, and one of those bites where you just pause for a second like... yeah, this is it. The spaces are always cute, we sat outside, and they even have doggy ice cream which is honestly the cherry on top for alota folks. 100% worth the stop.

Sweet and delicious treat for a hot day!…read more After leaving a nearby establishment, my husband and I decided to venture into Jeni's. This was a perfect ending to our date night. Upon entering, we were greeted by the workers and my nose became filled with the sweet smells of waffle cones, and ice cream. They have so many different flavors to choose from. If you are undecided, ask for a sample before deciding which flavour suites you. Prices are reasonable, and there is plenty of seating inside to sit, or take a stroll through the neighbourhood and enjoy! I opted to get a waffle bowl with gooey butter cake and brown butter almond brittle. Both ice creams were delicious. The gooey butter cake had pieces of gooey butter cake, and the brown butter almond brittle had almond brittle pieces in it. It was sweet, yet salty, and savoury. The waffle bowl was crunchy, and sweet. I will definitely be back to try new flavours!

You can taste the real cream and fresh ingredients. We love all the cake ones because they have actual cake pieces inside! The little waffle piece is delicious too. It's great to read their ice cream origin story on their napkins. This location is also a nice and heavenly smelling space, bustling in a good way especially at night. We always make a stop at Jeni's whenever we are in central west end, or even when we're not.

The Flaming Tomato Tango was my favorite part of the entire meal. The Royal Grille sandwich was really unique. The orange cream cheese isn't too overpowering, and all of the flavors work really well together. Be sure to upgrade to the Billy Chips ~ you won't regret it! If we're ever back in the area, we'll definitely be back.

Extremely unsafe for anyone with food allergies or celiac disease…read more We told the staff multiple times that we are gluten-free and vegan, and specifically asked whether the pita and hummus were safe for us. We were repeatedly told that they were. When the food came out, I asked twice more if the pita was gluten-free and was again told yes. We ate some of it based on those assurances. I finally went and asked another employee, who then told us that the pita DOES contain gluten. This is not a minor mistake for someone with celiac disease. We specifically disclosed the dietary restriction, repeatedly verified the food, and were given incorrect information multiple times before eating it. What makes this especially concerning is that The Fountain on Locust promotes itself as being allergy-friendly. If a restaurant is going to make that claim, staff need to understand food allergies and celiac disease and be able to accurately identify what is and is not safe. We would never have eaten the pita if we had been given correct information. After this experience, I would not trust this restaurant with a serious food allergy or celiac disease. Management needs to address its allergen procedures and staff training before someone gets seriously hurt.

It was one of the best ice creams I've had. My bf had one of their boozy milkshakes and really liked it as well.

Will definitely be back.

It definitely did not disappoint. It was packed and filled to the brim, super generous portion and honestly a bit over the top but in the best way. The combination worked really well. The strawberry cheesecake added a nice creamy, slightly tangy balance, while the gooey butter cake brought that rich, sweet St Louis style indulgence. A really satisfying mix of flavours and textures throughout. One other thing I really appreciated was that they provided lactase which is such a thoughtful touch to make it easier for people who are lactose sensitive to still enjoy everything. It got pretty busy when I stopped by which says a lot about how popular it is. But there is plenty of space around for you to sit and enjoy the cold treat. Worth a stop if you're craving something sweet! Would definitely try just their ice cream next time.

This is an amazing ice cream shop that uses nitrogen and makes your ice cream while you wait. It's quite a fascinating process to watch, and it leaves your ice cream with the most incredibly smooth texture. They have all the regular flavors, then they have alcohol infused flavors, and seasonal flavors as well. I chose the seasonal blackberry crumble, which is served with a cinnamon ice cream base. I think they use Vietnamese cinnamon because the flavor was amazingly intense. While their ice cream is priced higher than the average place, it is of higher quality, a larger portion, and premium ingredients are featured. It's well worth it. It's definitely in my top three favorite ice cream shops. There's a few scattered tables inside, but quite a few more on the patio outside. The staff was working so hard and I can't imagine how sore their wrists must be at the end of the night. Everyone was great.

They house lots of vintage candy brands and newer ones. On the day we visited, it was a HOT HOT day so my husband and I were more interested on their lemonades: Hibiscus Lemonade and Strawberry Lemonade Refresher. They were perfectly cold, sweet, and sour and I say that as someone who generally does not gravitate toward lemonades! We ordered a cone up with cookies and creme for my toddler - he did not share at all but I'm sure he loved his! Service was quick, but still friendly enough and kept the line moving. If you are looking for seating, best to sit inside of the food hall or enjoy while strolling around.

It was such a night in STL and after the sun went down it finally cooled enough to be able to enjoy the evening with a scoop from Clementine's in hand. I had the tahini chocolate chip and holy cow. This honestly goes in my top five ice creams of all time. There's a new Clementine's location here in KC and I'm going to have to fast track my visit because I've been thinking about this flavor now for about two weeks. No notes. If you haven't been to Clementine's yet what are you even doing with your time in STL?

Flavor and Savor Clementine's is not just an ice cream shop,…read moreit's a happy place. They know how to build a space for eating ice cream, and they've thought about every inch of it. Colorful wallpaper wraps the room and at first glance reads as charmingly vintage, until you look closer and realize: it's ice cream wallpaper. Of course it is. The whole place rewards a second look. The chalkboard menu lays out the full lineup, including their signature alcohol-infused flavors (naughty) right alongside the family-friendly options (nice). It's busy in there, and on this particular night, you could tell at least one staff member was running on fumes and ready to move the line along. That's fair. But the broader vibe is staff who meet you where you are, offer samples, and let you take your time deciding. I knew what I wanted: salted caramel, cookies and cream, and Midnight Pleasures (their dark chocolate). Both delivered. We came here with friends after a great Vietnamese dinner up the street, and Clementine's is the perfect cap to a night out in the Central West End. This particular location is roomy enough to handle a group of six or more comfortably, which is genuinely rare for Clementine locations. Plenty of seating, plenty of space to settle in. Here's what sets Clementine's apart from the field: the flavors are approachable without being too hipster. There's a faithfulness to their approach without any pretension. Some novelty ice cream shops are all about "look at this weird thing we made" ...Clementine's is about thought. They've put real care into each flavor and they let you be the decider. That's a meaningful difference. 4.7 of 5 out of stars, easy. Stay a while. Give the staff a break and it's a solid 5 out of 5. If Clementine's were a character, it would be Mary Poppins. Practically perfect, a little magical, sweet without being saccharine. She doesn't move into your neighborhood, she shows up for an evening and makes it feel like an event. The wallpaper, the chalkboard, the boozy flavors next to the kid flavors, all of it is a spoonful of sugar with real craft behind it. You don't need her every day. You need her for the magical night. You can also grab pints to take home, which is dangerous if you live nearby. (Could you go every day? Yes. Twice a day if your metabolism can handle it? Also yes.) But this is the kind of place that's worth saving as a destination, the kind of stop you build into a magical night, share with a friend, and remember.

I…read morewas a super fan of the Almond Joy ice cream when they first opened but I guess it wasn't popular amongst the masses. My go-to now is the Banana Pudding ice cream. It truly tastes like they made banana pudding and just put it in the freezer. It's the most amazing, REAL banana flavor and the perfect amount of cookie. Service is spectacular! Always a smiling face to greet and serve you. I enjoy sitting on the patio in the back to relax or talk with friends. I also like how they have coloring pages and other interactive activities and incentives for children. Very family friendly!

My absolute favorite flavor was the banana pudding, with the blueberry butter cake coming in a close second. Both were rich, flavorful, and easily some of the best ice cream I've had in a while. What really made this place stand out was the hospitality. The worker helping us (who I believe was either the owner's son or part of the family) was genuinely one of the kindest people I've met. He made our entire group feel so welcome and took the time to chat with us, which made the experience feel so personal. I also loved that they offer both indoor seating and an outdoor patio, making it a great spot to hang out no matter the weather. After just one visit, this has already become one of my top three favorite ice cream shops. I can't wait to come back and try even more flavors!
