23 Essential Houston Ice Cream Shops

"With locations in the Heights, CityCentre, and Montrose, Jeni’s is where cold tubs of creamy ice cream made with some of the best ingredients await. Enter any shop and you’ll also encounter the familiar waft of fresh, Buttercrisp waffle cones in the air. Favorites include the Gooey Butter Cake, a cream cheese ice cream littered with vanilla cake crumbles and caramel-butterscotch swirl; a chocolatey Texas Sheet Cake; and Brambleberry Crisp." - Brittany Britto Garley

We drove out of our way based on a tip and the ice cream flavors didn’t disappoint. So many new flavors to choose from - thank heaven they have good customer service. They were truly accommodating. Nice seating area and pints to go for those who want more. There was plenty parking and loads of other great business in the area within strolling distance to walk off your meal and dessert. Friendly customer service and lovely little parlor.

Good ice cream. $9 for 2 different flavors. It's 1 scoop. So 1/2 scoop for 1 flavor. Clean restaurant. Quick serve. Friendly customer service.

Splendid indeed! Jeni’s has a multitude of flavors to choose from. My personal favorite is “gooey butter-cake”, sooo good. They have fruit flavors like “bramble-berry” and classics too. They offer a “darkest chocolate” vs a “ milkiest chocolate” to give chocolate fanatics a choice. The best ice cream shop in H-town in my opinion.

I had Jeni’s ice cream. I got two scoops in a waffle cone. 1) gooey butter cake: fantastic- gimme 17 of them now. Creamy, salty, buttery, sweet…some of the best non-chocolate ice cream I’ve ever had. 4.7/5! (Insane) 2) Texas chocolate sheet cake: this one was good too but it was hard to follow the gooey butter cake flavor. It was chocolatey with a bit of dark chocolate bitterness. 3.4/5. The gal working the counter was very nice too and offered many samples! I enjoyed the ambiance of the place as well- could definitely sit with friends or family if wanting to. As far as price, 7-9$ for a 2-4 scoop cone was worth it! Overall, will definitely go again! 4.1/5!!!

Definitely on the pricier side of ice cream places, almost eight bucks for the smallest size which is two “half scoops” but honestly it was really enjoyable, we got two different flavors and both were so rich. The place is so cute and cozy.

Delicious ice cream and fast and friendly service. They give you samples too. We got the signature cone with half scoops of Texas sheet cake, salted peanut butter with chocolate flecks and coffee with cream and sugar. The ice cream is rich and creamy. My fave was the coffee with cream and sugar. The salted peanut butter comes in second. Parking was difficult as the lot is very small and shared with residences. Our table was dirty but they were very busy.

The patio was so adorable with plenty of seating and vibrant welcoming colors! Handicap parking with handicap rails and wooded paths to the porch! The inside was also handicap accessible. The interior was also bright, colorful and minimalistic! The employees were so helpful! Allowing as many samples as you liked! They had over 20 flavors! I sampled everything!!! I chose lavender, mint, and coffee as my flavors. Very creamy, smooth and full of natural flavors!

This ice cream is delicious! It is shipped in, not made in-house, but they have a lot of interesting flavors, to include non-dairy, with some new ones that rotate through. They have waffle and sugar cones, bowls and even a flight of 10 flavors to try (which I wish they offered in a smaller quantity and price option.) They also have pints and snack size for purchase. I got the standard 2 scoop which portions are on the smaller side, but calorie wise it is probably a good thing. The cake batter and chocolate chocolate cake flavors were very good. I like that the place is bright and open. There is a lot of seating inside and a cute outdoor seating area as well. Staff were very friendly. There are various merchandise items available for purchase. I enjoyed my first visit. 4 stars due to cost/value, but all else was 5 stars.

big fan of jeni's, i get these at whole foods when i can! TEXAS SHEET CAKE CHOC is so rich, u can taste the quality + the brownie bits. nothing hits like the first bite. the salted peanut is why i got into peanut ice creams. two scoops is the smallest size + the buttery waffle piece is included YUMM it was hot so i appreciated the water provided for customers inside. quiet chatty ambience. service from employees was PHENOMENAL and they matched the jolly atmosphere from the outside.

The staff was phenomenal and friendly, the selections were excellent, the cone bowl was a perfect method of serving, and I genuinely enjoyed the whole experience! It feels like a place straight out of San Francisco but with more square footage

Cute location with plenty of seating. They also have a mini outdoor space. Friendly service - employee helped me find my way to Rainbow which ended up being my favorite flavor that they had on the menu item right now. Personal preference, but I wished they had more tart and/or diverse flavors.

Great scooper, super friendly and a ton of flavors to sample and order. They do creative combo ideas that I highly recommend. They also sell an extensive variety of pints to go. Fun porch outside.

Love coming here to and trying all the flavors but today I got the butter cake and wildberry lavender. The lavender was a little overwhelming but the combo was very tasty. The staff was really nice and even with a longer line I didn't feel rushed to choose. It was raining so it was packed inside but during any other day definitely enjoy the swing chairs.

Idk what it is about that Gooey Butter Cake ice cream, but gosh darn it I'm addicted. Jeni..you have some explaining to do!!! No, but seriously..I'm hooked. Of course I've tried other flavors, but I always come back to this one. When you go there, if you can't decide what flavor you'd like to get, they don't mind letting you try samples. At least it doesn't seem like they do. The employees are nice and all, but don't over do it! The shop is decorated nicely, with plenty of places to sit and enjoy your ice cream. They even have these chair swings outside if you'd rather sit out there. Next time you're walking the strip on Montrose, make this spot a stop on your list. Just trust me on this one!

This ice cream shop has become a common gathering spot for my friends and I whenever we're nearby. I personally prefer this location over the one in Memorial because it gives off less corporate and more home-like vibes. I certainly see the appeal in the wacky flavors you can choose from, but I'm more of a conventional-flavor dude so I've only tried the gooey butter cake + salted PB scoops. They're both a huge step up from anything vanilla but I don't feel blown away like many other reviewers do. Great ice cream overall, but I don't know how I feel about paying $7 for two half scoops. Regardless, I think people without a strong sweet tooth will still have a decent experience here. It's a pleasant place to chat with your friends if nothing else.

It was my first time at Jeni's and I really enjoyed the experience! We stopped in one evening after dinner and were greeted right away. I tried a few different flavors but ended up with two scoops, one being salted peanut butter with chocolate flecks and gooey butter cake. My friend had two scoops of lemon crinkle which is one of the splendid holiday collection flavors. Overall, the ice cream was splendid! Pun intended there. I'll be returning soon. The ambiance is that of an ice cream shop and the customer service was great.

Jeni's ice cream is always so good. I love the variety of flavors and how they change it up every once in a while. I came in with a big group and the employees were very nice and welcoming. This location had many seats to chill and eat yummy ice cream. Definitely recommend!

As someone always guilty of a sweet tooth after a meal, I love Jeni's. Their flavors are unique, even the signature ones. My favorites so far are the lavender and buttercake, but this time around I opted for the brambleberry crisp and almond (?) praline (sorry if this is inaccurate). While they do have a small selection of sorbets, non-dairy, and less sugar-y flavors to choose from, the majority of the flavors here tend to revolve around spins on the classic sweeter flavors like your chocolates, cookie doughs, birthday cakes, etc. This location gives off a more homey vibe compared to the City Center one, service is good at both. I will say the parking lot is very limited which is typical of this area.

I always forget how good Jeni's ice cream is, and each time I come back I'm always amazed of how good and unique their flavors are! My friend and I came here for a sweet treat, and Jeni's ice cream will never disappoint that craving. When you walk in, you're instantly met with a smell of fresh waffle cones that is so inviting and sweet. When ordering, the workers are very friendly and will always offer you to try samples of any flavors you want. They are so patient and never make you feel rushed to order. There's a large selection of flavors to choose from with all of them being unique and interesting. They also have their fall and holiday flavors in, and each of them sound delicious. My friend and I ordered the rainbow sherbet, bramble berry crisp, and coffee. My favorite was the sherbet, and it was perfectly fruity, sweet, and tangy and a great palette cleanser to the other rich flavors. We ate our ice creams at the outdoor seating to enjoy the weather, and there a lot of seats and lighting! The only downside of this location is the parking, as it is very limited and sometimes difficult to find when it can get pretty busy in the night. But overall, this place never disappoints!

Another great experiencr at Jeni's! We opted for the brambleberry crisp, rainbow, and coffee and the flavors were fantastic! They are also currently doing limited fall flavors that seemed very interesting but I like to stick to the tried and true. Service is wonderful with no pressure to rush and plenty of time for sampling which I love because I am very picky with my ice cream. The ice cream here is definitely a bit pricey than local shops near by ($17 for 2 standard cups) but a nice treat out every once in a while! Parking is always a pain here so be prepared to wait or have to opt for parking elsewhere! Usually we sit inside but because of the cooler weather, we sat in the outdoor tables which was refreshing to enjoy!

I've hear so many things about Jenis ice cream but truthfully, I thought it was mid. I got two scoops and I thought it was pretty pricey for what it was. I paid about $9 for it and I was pretty underwhelmed. The spot is cute. There's a lot of seating outside. Parking can be annoying depending on what day of the week you go on.

Tried Jeni's for a late night snack via Uber Eats. The service was okay, it seemed it took quite a a while, for the store being about 3 miles away. My ice cream arrived melting and was dripping all over the place. I do t know if this was due to Uber or the ice cream not being frozen hard. I'd suggest paying for priority delivery and ask that the U er driver has an insulated carrier to avoid the mess. My ice cream was $14!!! Despite this, the ice cream was absolutely delicious!!! I tried the Gooey Butter Cake. I was in heaven! It's the best of both worlds for me. Cake, cheesecake, and Ice Cream. Note...there are three servings in this itty-bitty container, at 1030 calories for the container. Sadly...I ate the container.‍‍ Overall, I'd suggest this is a place to go to, and enjoy. For the business...insulated bags may be helpful.

I eat ice cream all the time, considering it's my favorite dessert. When in Houston, I usually turn to ice cream shops, such as Tiny's Milk & Cookies. However, my sister recommended this cute place to me since they have a larger variety of flavors and it is less expensive. Thank goodness she did! After two times of going here, Jeni's has quickly become my favorite spot to get ice cream, and I can assure you that when you go, it will become one of your favorites too. For example, I took my dad's wife here one time to try, since she's a fan on Tiny's like me, and she ordered 4 scoops of ice cream and ate ALL of it! My two favorite flavors are Gooey Butter Cake and Brambleberry Crisp. The sweet brambleberry jam layered throughout the vanilla ice cream provides a tartness that cuts the fatty vanilla, and the oat-streusel provides a unique break in texture from the creaminess. On the other hand, Gooey Butter Cake is just such a comforting flavor with delicious caramel butterscotch sauce swirled throughout cream cheese ice cream with pieces of vanilla cake. Having a split scoop of both these flavors is just a piece of heaven in my hand!

I'm a huge fan of Jeni's...I've visited quite a few locations and always enjoy trying the new flavors they have. This location was new and has a mini parking lot to the side which was nice considering the area. If you've never been, you typically can't go wrong with any of the flavors. I particularly enjoy brambelbery crisp, gooey butter cake, brown butter almond brittle, and many more. This time i tried a sorbet which was prettygood and my 6 year old loved it.

I tried Jeni's for the first time! They have a lot of interesting combinations and their ice cream is very rich and sweet. One regular sized scoop of the Gooey Butter Cake pint is able to kill my sweet tooth monster. I like the combination of the butter cake and butterscotch. However, an occasional bite of the cake had a chalky texture. My husband tried the birthday cake pint. It's also very sweet and has a lot of sprinkles.

A great ice cream spot with high quality, unique and creative flavors. The friendly staff will tell you about the flavors and let you sample them. There's alot of seating inside to chill and hang out with friends or family. Cool interior atmosphere for your Instagram pics. A great spot to take the kids on a hot Houston day. When they are busy there can be a long line and it can be difficult to find parking.

Came in on a wed at 2 pm, surprisingly busy. Food: 4/5, tons of flavor options, we got the Texas sheet cake, cherry pie and sweet cream biscuits and peach. Loved the sheet cake and cherry pie, the peach wasn't as good for me but not bad by any means. Ice cream quality is about the same compared to many of the other good ice cream places Service: 5/5, friendly, happy to let us try samples and work with us on an questions Ambiance: 4/5 cute little place with good decor and a lot of character. Outside looks more like a house than an ice cream shop. Seems like a decent option for a post date dessert. Parking: parking lot on the side of the building with decent amount of space, I imagine could have difficulty if the place is busier

Jeni's is by far the best ice cream ever. Unmatched. I wish they had it in New York. I've had it in Ohio, Austin, Tennessee... The. Absolute. Best.

Great ice cream flavor and fun hangout vibes if you're willing to accept the premium price tag. I have loved Jeni's ice cream for years as their flavors are bold and true to their labels. Their Montrose location is designed very simply on the inside. There are several tables and booths and two nearly identical ice cream scooping stands. The workers are quick to serve, friendly, and helpful as they usually are. I usually get the trio flight which is ~$10. I try to switch up the flavors but always get the darkest dark chocolate which any dark chocolate lover will enjoy. At this location, they have outside seating and some fun, spinning top chairs too.

Super cute ice cream spot, with lots of flavors and ample places to sit and enjoy your cone. For me personally, the flavors fell just a tiny bit short. I tried a few -- wild berry lavender, sparkling cherry, sweet cream biscuits and peach jam, and bay leaf cheesecake. I found most of them a bit too sweet for my taste. I know it's ice cream but I prefer flavors to be a little more subtle and less sugary-tasting. I'm sure I'm in the minority here anyway. I think my favorite flavor was bay leaf cheesecake since it was actually less sweet. All that being said, their flavors are constantly changing. They also let you sample until you find something you like. One of my favorite things about Jeni's is that they use reusable (metal) sample spoons! Ice cream shops must go through a crazy amount of plastic spoons so kudos to Jeni's for taking the sustainable route. Very friendly service. Small parking lot which can fill up during busy times but hey, at least there's a parking lot (parking isn't great in this area overall).

When you walk in you're immediately hit with the sweet buttery smell of their waffle cones. They give free samples to whatever you want to try! This location has a cute outdoor space. There's a chair swing by the front door and then a little area on the right with lights and a big tree. Good flavors all pretty sweet. They have free water! Small parking lot with a few spots but mostly street parking!

This is such a cute little ice cream shop for the person who wants a good variety of flavors, a solid cone, and an instagramable picture spot. Service was very kind and let you sample several flavors. I got the fluffernutter and milkiest chocolate. The milkiest chocolate was not my favorite taste as far as chocolate ice cream goes, but I did really like the fluffernutter.

Not owned by Jeni McCarthy, sadly. Or JJ Jeni, my fave German model. I think it's really nice that Jeni's Splendid ice creams has come to town and I fully support them. They went from 0 to several Houston locations. I do think this is a very popular national chain now which is really moving into the mold of all of the famous chains such as Ben & Jerry's or Cold Stone, Marble Slab too, which all to me are very different. This one is closer to the first one as in it's pretty good. I like the early locations and I love the one in Columbus. But now that it's massively franchised it definitely isn't quite as good. Still lovely to have it in Montrose.

Absolutely loved my first time going here! When you first walk in, you're hit with an immediate sweet scent, which was lovely. It was super packed, so I knew automatically that it would be a big hit. The staff were so sweet & offered samples. I got to try the Brambleberry Crisp, Brown Butter Almond Brittle, & Gooey Butter Cake and all the flavors I got were so DELICIOUS. I will definitely be back to try more flavors out! Highly recommend.

As soon as you step in, the scent is captivating. I love coming here for a scoop. I got the standard with two scoops. I went with the brambleberry crisp and gooey butter cake. All waffle cones are made right then and there upon order.

So this place is soooo cutesy very cute for a girls day or a quick sweet treat. Very nice service and friendly atmosphere. I got milk chocolate and birthday cake and it was good. Now, I will say this is what one would consider expensive ice cream. You're gonna be paying 8+ no matter what. Also it is strange that they work in half scoops and I didn't see anywhere that you can do a full scoop so in my mind their standard two half scoop deal is just a 7$ one scoop. Overall do go to this place just it's a pretty penny.

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams just opened their Montrose location and I've already been 4 times since the grand opening. Does that show how much I love this place? Haha 10/10 would recommend! While their parking lot is small, we were happy that they even have a parking lot because parking in Montrose can be tough. Once you're inside though, you immediately get hit by their mesmerizing freshly baked waffle cone smell. The staff is super friendly, and they encourage you to sample all of the flavors if it's your first time here. My favorite flavors though are high five candy bar, wild berry lavender, frose, gooey butter cake, and brown butter almond brittle. I guarantee they have a flavor everyone would like though! Don't be afraid to try their seasonal rotating flavors as well, enjoy!

The aroma of sugar is pungent and aggressive as soon as you enter, and that's how you know you're alive. Very simple and miminal decor with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Staff was willing to give me samples to my heart's desire, but I only chose two. Prices are comparable to other local ice cream shops. The best part is THERE'S A PARKING LOT AND PORCH SWINGS.

We love Jeni's Ice Cream, but we hate their "parking lot" (not their fault though because this area is already notorious for limited parking). Aside from that, the interior is brightly lit and the staff was so friendly and outgoing. There's plenty of tables inside and their swings outside are so cute. Can't go wrong with the Gooey Butter Cake flavor either! We went with our family, so it only made sense to share an ice cream flight. Would return when in the area, and preferably at an off-peak time.

Nothing goes together better than a heat advisory & ice cream! My first visit to this location of Jeni's, beautiful store w plenty seating! Something to keep in mind is the space is relatively large but when it's busy w children it can get loud at times. Staff were very patient explaining flavors and providing samples. At first they had run out of cups for water and then they brought water out to us to make sure we were hydrated! I had the lemon and blueberry parfait and dark chocolate ice creams, refreshing and just delicious!

Delicious ice creams in a welcoming atmosphere. Great parking which is unusual in Montrose. From the moment you walk in the enticing smell of waffle cones hits you The ice cream delivers on the expected yumminess the initial aroma promises. Friendly service - they patiently let me taste as many flavors as I wanted before I made my decision. Definitely will return!

Lots of flavors to choose from. High quality ice cream. A little pricey for how much ice cream you get, but worth it because of the quality in my opinion. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Cute place for an ice cream treat! This addition to Montrose is in the epicenter and a bit tough to park at. Plenty of parking for an establishment in these parts (gravel) but nonetheless, difficult to get into if it's at a peak time. Long line out the door, nbd--must be really good, right?! We brought our kids to enjoy themselves. I felt like we were (almost) annoying people with their presence. Hilarious! Ok, I get it. This is not Memorial or West U. This is the hip part of Houston. Anyway, Jeni's is quite clean and spacious inside and out, with a plethora of interesting flavors. No mix-ins. Delicious waffle cones (and bowls). Free small waffle cones for the kids. We had the 10-flavor flight so we could all try a little bit of their top picks. I'd say my personal favorite was the milkiest chocolate (the darkest chocolate was too bitter for my taste), the brambleberry crisp (such a lovely combo between a berry-like jam and crumbles), brown butter almond brittle and gooey butter cake. My kids loved the rainbow buttermilk frozen yogurt. There are a TON of other flavors that I have yet to try, which I'm sure there are several that would have my taste buds screaming with joy (hello, cookies & cream!). Offering pints to-go is a major plus! Only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because, truth be told, I didn't think this was the absolute creamiest, delectable ice cream I've ever had. Creamistry holds that spot in my heart! Maybe it's because this is a chain and the original is in Cleveland. Still a solid option, but I also LOVE having mix-ins as an option. And milkshakes... and affogato. LOL. Here's what was in our ice cream flight, for reference to the picture: rainbow buttermilk frozen yogurt, coffee with milk & sugar, darkest chocolate, honey vanilla bean, brown butter almond brittle, gooey butter cake, lemon bar, brambleberry crisp, wildberry lavender, and salty caramel.

As soon as I walked in the door I did not feel like I was in a ice cream shop. It felt very vibrant and inviting with all the wall decor. It was not like your typical cold freezer ice cream places. The flavors are very individually made and one of a kind! You can choose how many scoops you want and even add different types of ice cream flavors in your waffle cone. I got 2 scoops with the gooey buttery cake and lavender in a waffle cone. They were both scrumptious and like no other ice cream I have ever had before. Now, I chose these flavors, but just know you can try samples before you make your final decision. I love the fact that we were serviced in a timely manner and I did not feel rushed. The cashier was really patient about answering any questions and very helpful. The good thing is you can also take some to go if you are not ready to eat your once cream at that moment. Also, if you decide to eat your ice cream inside they have complimentary water if you happen to get thirty after. Come and try this out after a day out and cool down with a nice chill ice cream.

This location's adorable and I loved swinging on the front porch with ice cream in hand, but the five stars are for the service. Shout out to Brendan for his extreme patience and for suggesting the perfect flavor (gooey butter cake all the way) after excessive trial and error taste testing. Seriously, the patience of a saint. I appreciate you.

Love the ice cream. But the scoops here are way smaller than the heights location. I wanted the normal giant Jeni's scoops and I feel cheated by these tiny scoopettes

Jeni's is delicious, simply put. What I live about this location especially is the wide variety of seating and the large space. Perfect to bring the family and friends for a sweet treat! I got the new Frosé Sorbet (it's GF) and it was sooooooo refreshing and delicious. It had a notable wine taste, and I was told it contains the tiniest bit of alcohol so best for adult consumption. The waffle cones are made fresh and the to make the experience even better, the staff is so so kind. Feel free to try as many flavors as you need, they want you to love your cone! Lastly, Gooey Butter Cake deserves my honorable mention.

First off, they have PARKING!!! Like a real parking lot, they don't have a lot, but at least 12 spots is a big + because most places in the area on Westheimer either don't have parking or only 4 spots. Walking up to it has a country front porch with bright lights. The inside is very open. There's plenty of room inside to enjoy your ice cream. They also sell pints to go and the staff is very helpful.they

This was my first visit to Jeni's and definitely not my last! I loved that they had parking next door as well as a ramp for accessibility! The employees were super kind and helpful!! It was very cute inside and clean. They sold multiple shelves of super cute merch like shirts, books, hats, bags, sprinkles, mugs, scarves, baby onesies and more! They sold pints of their flavors as well! They as well had soda, water, cold brew, and a specialty made fizzy drink called pink champ by Jeni to go with ice cream! (Located at the register) They had a lot of interesting flavors and we tried the Bramble berry crisp, DAIRY FREE Texas Sheet cake, coffee with cream and sugar, darkest chocolate, wild berry lavender, and frosé sorbet. They were all so good but I was really in love with the richness of the darkest chocolate! We also liked the frosé sorbet a lot! I think next time I'm wanting to try the high five candy bar, the brown butter almond brittle and the DAIRY FREE lemon bar. They also had cute swings in the front maybe for when the weathers a bit nicer lol! I am excited for the future of Jeni's! I think it's a great addition to the area! --- Additionally they have many GLUTEN FREE options!! As well as many flavors sold in pints on their website that were not sold in store!
