Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams

Staff here is exceptionally friendly! As a person with a soy allergy, it can be tricky to find places that accommodate me. Having the allergens clearly listed right up front is so helpful and I wish more places did that! The ice cream is delicious, innovative, and uses simple, quality ingredients. Highly recommend 😋🍦

very picky when it comes to ice cream. Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream is absolutely incredible! I had two scoops with Darkest Chocolate and Honey Vanilla Bean, and they were beyond perfect. The Darkest Chocolate is rich, smooth, and intensely chocolatey—like a dream for any chocolate lover. The Honey Vanilla Bean was creamy, with just the right touch of sweetness and that lovely, natural vanilla flavor. Together, they were the perfect pairing, making every bite a delight. Jeni's knows how to make ice cream an experience!

I can't eat dairy because of a whey and casein allergy so I come here just to get the dairy free Lemon Bar ice cream 🍦. It's so delicious! Creamy and lemony! Thank you Jeni for thinking of us who are different.

Jeni’s consistently is one of the best ice cream spots. It’s always soo hard to choose what to get here since all the flavors are so good but maybe it’s a plus there’s usually always a line here so you have more time to think what you want to Get. One of my favorite colors is the Darkest Chocolate and Honey Vanilla Bean… incredible. Jeni's is my go to for ice cream!

This place has great ice cream! I was visiting Nashville for a work conference and had dinner at Kore across the street. I got ice cream here after! I’m lactose intolerant and was so glad that they had dairy free options. My Texas Sheet Cake flavor was sooo good. Plenty of seating and friendly staff too!

This ice cream is sinfully delicious 😋 The watermelon taffy had a tartness that was surprisingly refreshing. The Honey Vanilla Bean put all other vanilla ice creams to shame!

We had a fantastic time at Jeni's. The service was great and the ice cream as usual was incredible i had the chocolate and the brown butter almond brittle and my friend got the raspberry peppermint. All the flavors we tried were beyond delicious.

Some of the most delicious ice cream! There are a variety of flavors with very unique options. Prices are a little higher than a typical ice cream parlour, but it's definitely worth going to for a once in a while special treat! There was a very long line, so do expect to wait several minutes. They do give samples as well!!

I always request a stop at Jeni's when I'm in a city with a scoop shop, and it never disappoints. We stopped in today and they had four cosmic-themed flavors to celebrate the solar eclipse on April 8th. The shop even had stars hanging from the ceiling, a star-themed playlist playing in the background, and free eclipse glasses to boot. Branding was on point! I had a few samples, the kind lady behind the ice cream case said I could have as many as I wanted and if there hadn't been a line behind me I probably would've spent another 20min sampling everything. I'm a sucker for specials and got three of the eclipse flavors- Supermoon, Nebula Berry, and Cosmic Bloom- in a waffle bowl ofc bc this is literally the only ice cream shop where I won't deny myself the waffles. Nebula Berry and Cosmic Bloom packed a fruity flavorful punch. Supermoon had floral notes paired with a cereal milk flavor. It's a treat every time.

I like to hate on Jeni's because their prices are very steep for ice cream, but I can't deny that their ice cream is good. There is almost always a line, which is a testament to why they deserve *some* hype. Their flavors are interesting, unique, and most of them are just really delicious. Some of my favorite flavors are Gooey Butter Cake, Buttercream Birthday Cake, and Salty Caramel. I've also tried their Milkiest Chocolate and Salted Peanut Butter, both of which you can't really go wrong with. But honestly, the biggest tip is to just sample everything you're interested in until you find the one you want. They are always SUPER friendly and willing to let you try as many samples as you want without feeling bad. When it comes time to actually order, the fact that they give half scoops is a win for me. Their scoops are on the smaller end, so you don't get overly full or sick but can still try 2-3 flavors (depending on what size you get).

I was lucky enough to come across Jeni's while searching for a dessert spot open late following a show at the Grand ole Opry. Jeni's did not disappoint! My only disappointment that night was that the banana cream pudding and dark chocolate truffle flavors were offered only by the pint (they did allow me to taste test them however, the service is so friendly!). There is ample indoor seating for a cool night or hot afternoon and a parking lot to make a quick stop convenient. Now that I'm back home on the west coast I did find their prepacked pints at Safeway(for $9.99).

I took my son for a treat and since we were on the East side, we swung by Jeni's. I was worried at first because parking on the East side can be non existent but Jeni's shares a large, free parking lot with other stores. Service was excellent and I sampled lots of ice creams before settling on the cherry pie and the snow cone ice creams. It's amazing how spot on they are with the flavors. Jeni's is pricey for ice cream but they're absolutely worth it!

loved the Jenis (pronounced like "penis") special. Great selection of flavors and the house made waffle cone is a real treat! Price is higher than I think it should be but also that's true at every restaurant in this godforsaken country

Visited Oct 30, 2023. This Jeni's location is in East Nashville. A fast growing chain creamery across the country. Due to their consistency and the many flavor options available, they're my number one choice for ice cream! This location in particular has one of the larger indoor seating areas, great for groups. Inside is well lit and has the same signature white and black floor tiling. Service here is great, I've not had any bad experiences. Employees are friendly + helpful & allow customers ample amount samples to taste! My recent go-to, are their new L'Affogato combos, For my parents and guardians, there are two gender neutral restrooms, one of the two has a changing table. There is parking, but it's split between paved (the upper preferred half) and graveled (the lower half, will have to take the stairs up).

Tasty ice cream in the LGBTQ neighborhood! They made their waffle scone there so as soon as you walk in you can smell that buttery smell, the staff were very nice and welcoming, there were 10+ flavors you can choose from.

I don't live in Nashville, and when we decided we wanted ice cream we went to Yelp. Northside ice cream parlor? I've never been on the northside... But I discovered there was pretty much off the hook. Jenni's is perhaps one of the best ice cream parlors I've ever been to! Homemade ice cream, and a whole lot of innovative toppings. There were some pretty unusual flavors, but when I tried the brown almond brittle ice cream I knew I was hooked! Conveniently located and relatively reasonably priced - this is the place to be for ice cream!

The line wasn't too long and the ice cream was great. I had the coffee with chocolate chip and my daughter had the Lemmon bar and the biscuits with the boss.

I don't even like ice cream, but I like Jeni's ice cream. So when my kids wanted ice cream, we came here. I tried to convince them to get the ice cream flight (10 flavors), but if you've read some of my past reviews, you'll know that my children and almost all kids do not want novelty or variety -- they want what they know. So they got the milk chocolate ice cream with sprinkles, and the gooey butter cake ice cream with sprinkles. I got the trio, which is three flavors of your choosing, and I chose wild berry lavender, cranberry crumble and boozy eggnog. My favorite of the three flavors was the boozy eggnog: it was creamy and nutmeg-y, and tasted at once familiar and totally unexpected. Ice cream in a bowl come with a triangle of cone, which they make in house. The people who were behind the counter were exceedingly kind and patient. I think you have to be if you work at an ice cream shop, because you're surrounded by people who are indecisive about what they want and ask for multiple samples. (Not me, of course.) The dining area was cute and had lots of rainbow bunting strewn about, and there was a little chalk board for kids to draw on. There is seating outside, too.

I got a craving for ice cream tonight right after all the stores around me closed. Luckily Jenis was open I went in to a worker cleaning the windows and prepared myself to be that guy coming in before close to upset the staff. No instead I was greeted by a friendly staffed I went to get my go to flavor in a double scoop to get in and out fast. When the staff mentioned some of the summer flavors I had enjoyed and we had a pleasant conversation I decided to try a few of the new flavors and when I thought I had decided on the flavors I'd be getting the gentleman taking care of me suggested the pistachio macaron changing my mind and getting that and the Mexican hot chocolate A late night sugar fix and a genuinely amazing experience with the staff.

I love your waffle cone cups! Like a punch of flavor in my mouth!!!!! Best icecream in the world!

Friendly service, clean and modern store interior, high quality ice cream and free samples available. Wonderful ice cream shop that knows service, quality and their branding.

I came for the Boozy Eggnog with Nearest Green in it and it DID NOT disappoint! I thoroughly enjoyed this delectable treat.. but I mean you can never go wrong with Jeni's ice cream!

Strawberry Buttermilk, Texas Sheetcake, Sweet Cream Biscuits and Sweet Cream Biscuits & Peach Jam. Those were the scopps I decided to go with for my first visit. I mean, have you ever thought of flavors like that and not salivate? I mean, come on now. As much I wanted to try every single flavor on the board, I had to contain myself as I already knew I'd be eating more sweets from 5 Daughters Bakery next door. It's okay, I'll be back. But this place is a must try for interesting flavors. There are chairs and tables to sit down and enjoy. As well as free ice cream stickers for the kiddos.

Always delicious ice cream! They have late hours too until 11 PM to get your late night craving in. Staff is always friendly, so it has a great ambiance! New flavors come in and change with the seasons, but they also have some staples you can always get. A fun business with delicious ice cream!

A fun little spot for ice cream! Such a nice location with plenty of parking and indoor / outdoor seating. Unfortunately they weren't offering spoons of different flavors to try, but they did say they'd be happy to swap my ice cream if we were not satisfied with our choice! We stopped in today in the early evening and had a tiny wait in the line for ice cream, but it went fast. My son got the rainbow bfy in a kids scoop that I tried and we really liked it! It reminded me of a tart, citrusy flavor but was still very creamy. The bramble berry crisp is one of my favorites though, as well as the salted pb and the goat cheese with cherry. I've been here numerous times and I've never been disappointed! I do really miss being able to taste test the flavors and hope that comes back soon, because the ice creams here are very unique! It's not your run of the mill ice cream.

Jeni's is a solid place to get your ice cream fix! They are pretty buy most of the time, but they have indoor and outdoor seating so generally speaking you can usually find a place to sit. Dogs are not allowed inside unfortunately (even if you're holding them to order your ice cream and plan to sit outside). Some ice cream flavors rotate, and some are always staples. Wish they added Oreo favored ice cream to their staple list!!

We started our trip with Jeni's and it was so hard to not stop thinking about it, but not having enough time to go back. We went on a Thursday night, and the area was very busy being located across from a bar. The parking situation is a little confusing because there is not much lighting, so we luckily found parking on the street and just jumped in the first spot we got. We came here because not only our love of ice cream and the amount of buzz this place gets, but they have a range of diary free flavors! I stuck with just the Texas sheet cake and banana cream pudding. They even were nice enough to let me know that the waffle chip that they put on top has dairy before putting it on my ice cream! Let me start with the banana cream pudding it was good, average... but the Texas sheet cake OH MAN, this ice cream was everything! If you are a chocolate lover who doesn't eat dairy anymore... wow! Possibly the best ice cream I've ever had in my life and that's saying a lot. We paid about $10 for both mine and my partners, so it wasn't too bad. We found out there is a location down here in Florida so looking forward to trying it out!

Love icecream and Jeni's sure has some great flavors. It cost a little more than other places but worth it for a good time. To bad employees sometimes ruin a good time when they have an attitude. I finally had to ask the person if they were taking orders because she just stood there ignoring us while the line behind us grew longer.Thank goodness after I ordered another person much more pleasant came up and helped my daughter and finished our order. The first girl walked off and didn't help anyone. The tables were dirty so we wiped off a spot to set and eat. Could you please provide a clean place to set and employees that greet customers. Thank you

Wow oh wow, this was some of the best unique flavored icecream I've ever had. The flavors are very unique. We had wild berry lavender and almond butter toffee. Walking in for the smells alone would be worth it! The ice cream is definitely more pricey than your typical ice cream spot but it is worth it for the quality of the icecream!

I love the Banana Brûlée which is only available during the spring. I wish they had it year round! It is my favorite along with Brown butter Almond brittle.

Yummmmmm! Unique flavors! Clean and open area with plenty of seating! The waffle cones are super tasty and loved a change from the standard flavors you see elsewhere!

Love the ice cream here! Big fan of trying their seasonal / limited edition flavors. A bit pricey, but worth it. Pro tip - get two different flavors for your two scoops

Having been to Jeni's in Charleston, I was super excited to take my husband to Jeni's in Nashville. We first tried to go to the one in the Farmer's Market but the hours were incorrect online and when we got there, it was closed. I dragged him across the city and it was well worth the drive. First up, when you walk into Jeni's the smell is amazing. Like, they need to bottle that delicious sweet smell and sell it. The line was long but the people behind the counter keep it moving and while sampling is on hold, they are able to answer any and all questions you might have about the flavors. Honestly, they are all good and you can't go wrong. I opted for a trio of half scoops: golden nectar, gooey butter cake, and brown butter almond brittle while my husband had a waffle cone with darkest chocolate and mango cheesecake. My fav of the trio was gooey butter cake but I was very much intrigued by the taste of the golden nectar. It is described as "fading summer sunlight topped with cracked caramel". It is literally indescribable other than it is true to the description and the intriguing taste keeps you returning for more. It's a limited edition flavor so if you see it when you go, don't pass up the opportunity to try it. The hubs was very skeptical about how the ice cream was going to be (particularly when we drove past Ben and Jerry's on the way) but he can't stop talking about it and wants to go again today for more. Particularly he liked the mango cheesecake and wants to have it shipped home. If that's not a ringing endorsement, I don't know what is!

It's amusing that "splendid" is directly in the name. The ice cream was indeed tasty. Certainly a variety of fun and interesting flavors available that differentiates it from, say, Baskin Robbins. I got the darkest chocolate flavor. Normally I always get ice cream in a cup, but when I saw Jeni's was making fresh waffle cones directly in front of us, I decided to get one, and was pleased that I did! We visited on a Monday evening and it was quite busy. O_O Long line but thankfully we found a place to sit outdoors and enjoy the dusk and lingering summer heat. I will say that the price is pretty steep... over $5 for a single scoop. My uncle was nice and paid for our ice cream since we were visiting, and I can't say that I would likely come back on my own dollar for that reason. Though perhaps I'd bring several friends to try a FLIGHT of ice creams. That's an awesome way to try multiple flavors! I liked the colorful decor inside and the restrooms were clean and gender neutral. You can also purchase some merch if you're a fan and wanna show it, haha.

No sugar added is a necessary part of my health requirements. I hope they add at least one alternative.

I visited Jeni's Ice Creams on Thursday, March 4, 2021 around 5 pm. I've been to several other Jeni's ice cream locations before and this one seems to be consistent in terms of service and quality of ice cream. The great thing I like about Jeni's ice cream is their limited flavor menu that still offers variety of unique flavors with a Jeni's twist to the basics. Other popular ice cream shops' marketing strategy is to offer a gazillion of flavors that seem to be of lower quality compared to Jeni's simply due to sacrificing standards for higher production volume. With Jeni's Ice Creams, you can always trust that the ice cream will taste new and fresh since all of the flavors are popular! There's a flavor for everyone. I had the cold brew with coconut cream flavor. I honestly didn't know it was dairy-free because my palate was being accentuated by the perfect pairing and balance of the smokiness of the cold brew and the sweetness of the coconut. I normally would get a scoop of coffee and vanilla each because I think they are a classic combination, but I would recommend this flavor if you like coffee and the fact that it tastes literally of 2 flavors in one. Service was exceptional and friendly. I appreciated how serious they're taking COVID precautions with limited capacity and enforcing masks. Unfortunately, there's no sampling during COVID pandemic.

Probably the best tasting ice cream in town. The ice cream was extremely creamy and over all fantastic. I would recommend the ice cream flight which is $20 but you won't be disappointed at all. All the flavors are absolutely amazing.

Please more Jenis now! This place is the best! Such kid friendly environments. They take food allergies seriously and are always Williston go through the books to help decipher if there's any question about what is or isn't safe depending on your allergen. Their seasonal rotations are always amazing but trust me, just get the bramble berry crisp! SO GOOD

Visiting Nashville and craving ice cream before I left. Honestly, the best ice cream I've ever had. Butterscotch popcorn is to die for. Clean place and friendly service in a nice area

Absolutely delicious! Expect to wait in line, but we'll worth it! The gooey butter cake ice cream was scrumptious!

As of right now, they are providing contact-less service, which I can appreciate! We stood in line, which moved pretty quickly. Once we got to the door, we looked at the menu to decide what we wanted. Once the person in front of us ordered, we were allowed into the building to order. I ordered two half scoops, one cold brew with coconut cream and the other half scoop was almond butter brittle (I might have a few words missing from the name of this one). I asked for a waffle cone. This was literally the besssst waffle cone I've ever had. I normally don't order them and will ask for a cup. They just smelled so good so I had to try it. The ice cream was amazing as well. Once you get your order, they have a door designated for you to exit. It was a great experience! We plan to stop by before we head back to our home town

Jeni's is one of my fav places to get ice cream! This location in particular was great. It's conveniently located off Eastland Ave in East Nashville. There's a huge parking lot right out front (which is hard to come by in Nashville in general). There's tons of seating both inside and outside which is also a huge plus. When we walked in it smelled ahh-mazing! They were making fresh waffle cones at the time and it was so cool to watch. They had a lot of flavors to choose from as usual but currently aren't allowing taste testing due to COVID. My favorite thing to get is the 3 scoop sampler so that I can try several different ones. It also comes with a little piece of waffle cone! There's complimentary tap water located at the bar near the cash register. They also sell other drinks like bottle sodas. They accept contactless payments like ApplePay!

I am not a fan of chains, but I am a fan of any business that offers an excellent product. Jeni's is one such company. An Ohio company w/ 40 franchises nationwide, the ice-cream sold here is not only delicious, but it's priced no higher than what I've found at other ice-cream shoppes. (However, the Jeni's pints now sold in Publix stores here in Florida are definitely priced higher-- $7.99 each.) According to the company's website, the ice-cream "has an incredibly smooth texture and buttercream body, with bright flavor & clean finish." No "synthetic flavorings, dyes, or off-the-shelf mixes" are used. Also not used are stabilizers & emulsifiers. (I am unsure what "bright flavor" or "clean finish" is, but the product is excellent regardless.) Jeni's makes 34 flavors, w/ four of them dairy-free. The four DAIRY-FREE FLAVORS are Caramel Pecan Sticky Buns; Cold Brew w/ Coconut Cream; Lemon Bar; & Texas Sheet Cake. REGULAR FLAVORS are: Orange Freeze; Mango Cheesecake Swirl; Rocket Pop; Wedding Cake; Raspberry Rose Jelly Donut; Savanah Buttermilk; Lemon & Blueberries Parfait; Sweet Cream Biscuits & Peach Jam; Skillet Cinnamon Roll; Pineapple Upside Down Cake; Blackout Chocolate Cake; Brambleberry Crisp; Salty Caramel; Buttercream Birthday Cake; Salted Peanut Butter w/ Choc Flecks; Brown Butter Almond Brittle; Fluffernutter Pie; Gooey Butter Cake; Middle West Whiskey & Pecans; Wildberry Lavender; Coffee with Cream & Sugar; Goat Cheese with Red Cherries; Boston Cream Pie; Darkest Chocolate; Strawberry Buttermilk; Milkiest Chocolate; Honey Vanilla Bean; Cookies in Cream; Brandied Banana Brulee; & Green Mint Chip. When I stopped in last week, there were 17 FLAVORS listed on the overhead menu. My three choices were ALL deliciously RICH & CREAMY. The SMOOTH TEXTURE was definitely apparent-- & appreciated. See the pic of my $6.25 "Trio Scoop" bowl of Salted Peanut Butter w/ Choc Flecks; Strawberry Buttermilk; & Milkiest Chocolate. Unsure of what flavors to try? You can order half scoops in order to sample more varieties. Calorie counts are listed beside each flavor; I closed my eyes:) Staff was relatively friendly. The shop has a mid-century modern look. It was clean. There's a small outside patio area should you arrive w/ a canine. The door on this DELICIOUS business should be replaced w/ a revolving one. It is one VERY POPULAR ice-cream palor! I definitively have plans to return when I'm back in Nashville:)

Jeni's is cool & everybody loves it, so there isn't a whole lot to add here. I just want to say that the folks at this location are super friendly & I forgive them for encouraging me to try the everything bagel a few months ago because it was DISGUSTING. Love my ooey gooey cake though.

We were in the area so we popped in for a snack. Ice cream makes a great snack! We ordered a "Single" (one scoop) coffee sugar and cream plus the "Standard" (2 half scoops) high-five candy bar and coffee sugar and cream. They were creamy and delicious! This location has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. They have water that you can help yourself to. I didn't see a bathroom. Free parking.

We need them in NJ! Visiting family now in Nashville and I'm sad we don't have Jeni's shops in Jersey. The variety is great and everything we tried was so delicious (coffee, wedding cake, strawberry butter cream, butter cake, darkest chocolate, lavender, etc.- all winners!) we are only here for a week, but we'll keep coming back until we gotta order our pints back home again!

Friendly staff, great selection, reasonable prices! Loved the quality of the ice cream. It melts thin and clean in your mouth- I didn't get that super thirsty feeling I usually do after eating ice cream. Read the their napkins for more info on this experience of flavor, texture, body and finish :) We visited them twice during our Nashville trip. The 1st visit we shared the brown butter almond brittle on a waffle cone. The 2nd visit we got half scoops on a waffle cone. Boyfriend had the salty caramel and brambleberry crisp. I had the honey vanilla and brambleberry crisp. I love the brambleberry. Try it if you like tart!

I was in Nashville for work so I ventured out for dinner and saw a Jeni's across the street. I've never seen a Jeni's in Texas so decided to stop for a sweet treat! The ice cream there is amazing. They also have no -dairy options if you are lactose intolerant or don't eat dairy! The staff is friendly and customer service was great.

It was a little backed up when we went by, but it didn't take but a few minutes of waiting in line to get our order in. I got the banana bread and peanut butter with chocolate flakes and that was such a wonderful combo. I need a location to come to Tupelo, for such a small business the ice cream this place is amazing. It's a cute little "not so much" hole in the wall place within the plaza, if you want a little sweet treat this is a place to go. The parking situation for the plaza is a little confusing, but if you can find an open spot, take it!

Best ice cream ever!! I love all the interesting and rotating flavors. Ooey gooey butter cake is my favorite!

This is not the closest Jeni's to me, but I come here when I'm in the area without fail. Let me start off by saying I hate ice cream. I've never been one to want to go to an ice cream shop. I came here because my wife wanted an ice cream. My friend, who recommended the place, was paying, so that's the only reason I decided to try it. Now, I can't get enough of the goodness. So far, I've tried all the seasonal ice cream flavors and some of the house favorites. I recommend the dark chocolate, the goat cheese and cherries, and more recently, the bramble berry. My wife strongly recommends the wild berry lavender. All choices are good, but you are allowed to have unlimited tastings before you buy. You can order your ice cream on a waffle cone made in house or on a bowl. Whatever you choose, it will be creamy and delicious.

My daughter dropped her ice cream and they gave her a whole new cone! Sweet place, sweet ice cream and sweeter staff!

Blown away by this ice cream shop, because it is splendid, indeed. As soon as you enter, you're engulfed in the smell of baked waffle cones and creamy goodness. The brief line goes quickly, so use that time to narrow down the list! There are so many options, but they're all so distinct, so even Queen of Indecisiveness, I, was able to quickly make a decision. I got frose sorbet and Wildberry lavender! My boyfriend got the roasted peanut butter and strawberry on a cone! Both were so fresh, delicious, and memorable. Only thing that sucked was that I'd asked for half a scoop of each of mine, and got charged for two full scoops. I'll have to double-check next time! Besides that, I 100% recommend you come to Jeni's for quality artisanal dessert. Oh yeah, and their bucket is like $500! Hah!

Perfect in every way. Neighborhood friendly, the cream is so creamy. A treat worth enjoying at any time.

Amazing ice cream Vanilla is my favorite, and here it is the bomb the staff is really nice

JENI's Ice Cream is a consistent favorite. We got the butter cake and almond brittle flavored ice cream. No tastings since it's covid, but the staff at the location was very friendly and helpful with suggesting flavors. I really liked this location because it's in a food hall/farmers market. There were so many options to accomodate different preferences. We look forward to going back again!!

A must try when in Nashville! I had their best seller Brown Butter Almond and Bramble berry. Both were delish! it came with a piece of crisp wafle. Two thumbs up and a happy tummy.

Great ice cream, a crowd pleaser. In my critical option, a tad too sweet though. But nonetheless, their reputation is deserved and I am always happy to eat their ice cream.
