The Mai Tai concoction.
Zoe F.

The employees were very patient! Many options and pre-made concoctions. Great value and I love the no mess cone they have! A nice outdoor eating space under the shade. Plus, they have color changing spoons! If I'm ever in the area again, I guarantee you that I'll be coming back!

I asked for a snow cone and they gave me a tiny piece of ice it was literally an ice cube. I'm never coming again.

very disappointed with the service. Took forever to get my order and the owner was very disrespectful not to only us but also his employees.

Yum! Can't go wrong with a tropical sno on a hot day. Lots of flavored. A small is big enough for me. $3. Can't go wrong.

I also liked that it comes in a cup with a sort of saucer around it which cuts down on the mess if you have smaller kids.

A good amount of flavors to choose from. The prices are pretty good for being independent. A cozy place for getting something cold. It's about $4 for a scoop. The stuff isn't like it's cheap but it's okay for the quality though. Has a lot of typical flavors. There's also some more exotic ones too. Last time they had the Tropical Orange. This is non dairy made with coconut milk, good stuff. Good place to get gifts. It has lots of candy and toys for sale. There's lots of old time charm and they make you feel welcome.

You will be able to find something to fulfill your sweet tooth be it either homemade ice cream, chocolate malts, or the assortment of candies. The chocolate malt was made as we waited. The process was just like you were making it in your own kitchen. The malt was delicious and full of malt flavor! The owner and operator was a great person who has no problem sharing a friendly conversation while making your favorite dessert. I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to have a relaxing experience with some tasty treats.

We came in for shakes and left completely blown away. I had the churro shake, my sons had the banana and Oreo -- all three were incredible. Not your average ice cream shop shakes. These things are next level. The shop also has a very cool old school ice cream shop vibe. But honestly, what made the experience was the two people working. A young lady and a young man who were both so attentive, patient, and genuinely helpful. They let us try a few flavors before we ordered, walked us through everything, and never made us feel rushed. That kind of customer service is rare anywhere, let alone at an ice cream shop. If you're in the area and haven't been here yet, you're missing out. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend.

This is a cute little downtown area, and unfortunately, it's barren on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Which worked well for us as we showed up and no one was there. Just us, which gave us plenty of time to sample the various flavors, and chat with the person working in this cute little ice cream shop. They can make all these cute shakes and sundaes with all kinds of toppings, but seeing as we aren't young kids, there's no way we could eat confections such as what I listed above. Instead, we got to try their various flavors. Thinking back, I believe I got a watermelon ice cream. I could be wrong. However, I do remember how juicy, fruity, and sweet the ice cream was. Not sweet like overly sweetened lemonade that puckers one's lips, but like the sweet sensation of a perfectly ripe watermelon, bursting with succulent. flavor. It was like that. And man was it good! If I lived in Riverside or close by, I would be there all the time. So thankfully, we were out for a drive and wanted some ice cream and found this cute little shop. They have a few small tables inside, but what makes this a town square right out of the 1950s are the cute little wireframe tables and chairs they had outside along the sidewalk so you can sit and enjoy your cone, and people watch. And we did just that. If I'm nearby again someday, I'll definitely pop in and grab a delicious cone. There flavor options were plentiful, whimsical, and flavorful. However, for the time being, I'll just post this review and hope others pop in to enjoy the cones and flavors they're providing.

Good going Hinsdale! For years there was no ice cream shop downtown and after a lot of residents…read morerequests, Every Day's a Sundae opened here (last year I think?). And this shop is awesome!! They have a lot of flavors that can be eaten in cups, waffle/sugar/or plain cones, or in the form of shakes/malts. They also have banana splits, traditional sundaes, and floats/sodas. Plus other treats like gourmet popcorn and chocolate dipped bananas. The inside is decorated so cute! It's painted vintage lavender-pink and white. There are cute photos and a mural on the wall depicting the Sherman's ice cream they serve which provides a modernly executed old-fashioned charm. I liked the vintage ice cream wrapper puzzle framed on the wall (pictured.) We loved the ice cream. What they do right with their product is the wide selection of flavors. Lately Oberweiss has severely limited their selection (a lot of places have....category management was the necessity of the past decade). But it's ICE CREAM! When you go out, into downtown Hinsdale no less, you have come to expect greatness, gourmet, top-of-the-game kind of food situations. This assortment of flavors, cones, toppings, etc. brings that essence to the going out for ice cream experience but doesn't toss out the folksy soda-shop charm that goes so well with it (and doesn't make it feel forced, either.) This business so gets all of that. Nice job!

Parking on the street right out front. It's quite a large ice cream shop. There are seats right by…read morethe window and the place was clean. The staff were nice and did not rush us when we were deciding our ice cream orders. It was quite difficult to decide because we were not allowed to try the flavors ahead of time. They give big portions so it's good to share with someone if you don't usually finish your dessert. I would come back again if I do come back to this area. Not a lot of dessert places in this area.

As soon as you step into Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams, you're hit--no, hugged--by the intoxicating…read morearoma of freshly made waffle cones and sugary goodness. It's like walking into a dessert dream. The air is thick with nostalgia, the kind that instantly transports you to carefree summer days and childhood joy. I ordered the waffle cone bowl with two scoops: Darkest Chocolate and Salty Caramel and let me tell you, this duo is nothing short of divine. The Darkest Chocolate is no ordinary chocolate. It's rich, bold, and almost sinful in its depth, think melted chocolate bars and midnight cocoa stirred into velvet. The texture? Silky and dense, like a frozen truffle that melts on your tongue with a whisper of bitterness that balances the sweet. Now the Salty Caramel, this was the real surprise. Buttery, golden, and complex, it hits your palate in waves: first sweet and creamy, then a punch of sea salt that makes your taste buds sit up and pay attention. The caramel is clearly slow-cooked, giving it that deep, toasty flavor with hints of vanilla and brown sugar. The waffle cone bowl was warm, crisp, and laced with cinnamon, adding just the right crunch to contrast the creaminess. The combination of hot and cold, sweet and salty, smooth and crisp was perfect. Every bite was a revelation, and I found myself closing my eyes just to savor the moment. My personal takeaway? If you're looking for more than dessert, if you want an experience this is the place. Do yourself a favor and get the waffle cone bowl. And don't be afraid to mix bold flavors. Trust me, your inner child (and your adult self) will thank you.
