Cute location right along High Street in Clintonville. It's mainly carryout, though they do have a bench near the window inside the shop and a couple of patio tables on the sidewalk out front. We grabbed some Whitties, their take on an ice cream (well custard here, of course) cookie sandwich - the current special flavor is mint chocolate chip, and they also offer the classic vanilla custard on chocolate chip cookies - to go. We also picked up some fun Dirty Worm sundaes - vanilla custard topped with crushed Oreo and gummy worms - cute and delicious. It was also neat to see they offer vegan selections too. Service was fast and friendly. Nearby street parking is available.

I've been by this place so many times, but only recently have stopped in. I am already a regular! This is a small location off high street near the intersection with broadway. Street parking on high or the side streets. Small interior with benches only, there are three small tables outside. Very popular with families with kiddos, can get busy when school lets out so be mindful. The employees have always been very friendly and polite. My favorite treat to order has been a strawberry shortcake, which is $5.75 before tax. The custard is like a soft serve ice cream but richer since custard also has egg in it. There is also a small rewards program they participate in. This place is a great spot to hit for a sweet treat.

Just a quart of "sugar cookie madness" that has zero sugar cookies in it, only sprinkles.

If you buy any of their flavors just know that it's mostly just the vanilla custard, barely anything else to it. I've got all sorts of ice cream from this be place over the years , and I'm always blown away at how little they add. For example, I bought a full pint of a Twix and there was, maybe, only half a Twix in the entire pint, if that. Such a rip off. I just got a quart of sugar cookie madness, and it's only sprinkles. Why are people so into this place, I don't get it. The sundaes are good and the location is good, definitely not worth a trip.

Vegan shake
Goose R.

They have a rotating weekly vegan flavor plus their vanilla is vegan. You can get a 100% vegan shake and Sundays either multiple topping that are clearly labeled as vegan or not. Seriously delicious shakes. And pints to go. Fresh fruit , candy , syrups and nuts as toppings.

This is my favorite ice cream spot in Columbus, even more than Graeter's!! The price point, value, service, point system and fresh flavors cannot be beat. The only con is that there are only four seats directly outside of the Clintonville location. You can walk down the street to sit at two benches. But all of these spots are always taken so you either have to eat in your car or take a stroll. I wish they would expand their seating to other store fronts, it would make a world of an difference when visiting.

Custom ice cream cake. Small size.

I really can't say enough about the ice cream cake I received from Whit's in Clintonville. I inquired about it a few weeks ago. The young lady carefully explained everything to me and I made my selections. I chose Whit's because my niece has a nut allergy and they will customize a cake for you. Also, I love their custard and frequent this location weekly. The day finally arrived and it is beautiful. One layer vanilla, cookie dough, Oreos in the middle with caramel, fudge, graham cracker crumbles and whipped cream. It was delicious!! Everyone enjoyed it. I know this will not be my last ice cream cake. Thank you Whit's.

My favorite place to get a refreshing cold dessert. Whether it's a weekly flavor or a whither off their menu, you know it's always going to be good. Already planning my next trip.

I'm a fan of whits. I've been to the other locations but this one is closest to home. This location is very small and with Covid restrictions they have a 4 person policy so just keep that in mind when visiting now. Whits makes pretty solid custard. They have a preselected menu but also create your own options so really the choices are unlimited. I usually visit when the weekly or daily flavor catches my attention, and I've never been disappointed. If I'm not ordering the special flavor then I'm having a Whister which is custard blended with toppings of your choice, or a dirty worm custard with crushed oreos and gummy worms. The prices here are very reasonable and they have great portions. The staff at this location is usually a bunch of young people they look like high school age but they are generally friendly and even have good recommendations if you can't decide what to order.

Double Delight
Alexzandria N.

This is my first time trying this place after constantly seeing the enticing ads on my Facebook newsfeed. Upon walking into this location although I wasn't greeted the employee (colorful hair) was eager to take my order. She went above and beyond to show me what the brownie topping looked like when I expressed interest in a brownie sundae. I wasn't interested in the pieces persé but she made a suggestion of the double delight that has a brownie base. I also received $1 off although I'm not sure what the reward was for... maybe since it was my first time in. The double delight sundae total (after the discount) was $4.79. Which I feel is fair for the amount of custard served. The custard was very creamy but lacked flavor but I loved the brownie base and hot fudge! Hard to go wrong with this combo! With that being said I'd certainly give them another try.

Clintonville crunch

Yum! Whit's is an Ohio custard joint that rivals the deliciousness of Culver's. They offer a plethora of custom custard creations, or you can build your own. I went for the Clintonville custard - a sundae consisting of vanilla custard, pecans, caramel and hot fudge. It was delicious, and the drizzle of caramel atop the perfect scoop of custard was presented surprisingly elegantly. The staff was friendly and my custard was ready in no time.

One of the best spots in Columbus. With a variety of rotating flavors and vegans options there is something for everyone. My favorite is the Buckeye Madness Whitzer. Highly recommend giving this place a try if you're in the mood for a cold treat!

Amazing custard, great social distancing requirements, even sanitized the door handle on the way out. Would return!

Maybe, but Shake No.8 was not a ghost town. When we pushed open the doors there were at least a dozen other people bundled up in their winter parkas, enjoying shakes and sundaes. Proof that the ice cream is so good, you'll even walk through a blizzard for it. It was our first visit and the guy working the counter walked us through the menu and showed us photos of the menu items. We decided to keep it simple with a strawberry milkshake and a limited edition Dubai chocolate shake. His hospitality and service is top-notch. You can tell he loves what he does and takes pride in it. The pictures don't even do these shakes justice, they tasted even better than they looked! The pistachio ice cream in the Dubai shake was world-class; creamy, rich with chunks of toasted pistachios mixed in. And a strawberry milkshake with A SIDE OF CHEESECAKE?! I mean, come on. There is nothing more you could ask for. All to say this place is 10/10, no notes. I'll be back for the Biscoff shake. Not even a polar vortex will stop me!

Pretty small inside, like most of them, same set up. Lots of interesting flavors, and free samples. Service was great. I tried a couple of the seasonals: the acorn and the sweet potato. Both were very good, and I ended up with a waffle cone of the acorn. Yes, it's a strange idea, no, it doesn't really taste strange. A little bit nutty, a little bit malty, the thick creamy sweetness of their standard ice cream, and some graham cracker bits crumbled up inside. Very good, nothing amazing. The sweet potato was also very good. And they have a couple of other seasonals, plus their usual. The waffle cone was tasty and sturdy, and did not leak. Eight dollars for a freaking cone though. It's a lot. It's not really a ton of ice cream, compared to other places. But it is good, and you'll find flavors you don't find anywhere else. I got a spot right across the street, but parking is always tight in Grandview and this was at 1 on a weekday afternoon, so at peak it is nutso. But Jeni's is always good. And if you are bored with vanilla and strawberry and buckeye swirl or whatever else you can find in the store or other ice cream shops, you will find something new here.

Brightly lit and inviting, this is the place to come for a cool creamy treat on a warm summer evening, as well as into the colder months of the year. If you're dining in the area and the restaurant you have visited, doesn't have desserts, or if they do have desserts and you'd rather have ice cream-this is certainly a place to come. A nice cap to an evening at the movies just down the street at Grandview Theater, a little dessert after coffee at Stauf's, or dinner at one of the local eateries, all followed by Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. You'll find many staple flavors in their repertoire, as well as some seasonal items that change up from time to time. Something for everyone, in a cone or a cup! Great for a date night. Some limited seating is available at a few tables in the front.
