Jock's Ice Cream & Sorbet

My son was so warmly welcomed today, Even though his fave go to was out, he was warmly welcomed to sample other dairy free items. So many wonderful options. Flavours all delish! Huge shout out for making our family’s day brighter & for doing what you do so well. The team are so caring and kind he ended up finding 2 new flavours & undertaking his first double cone of Apple & Watermelon sorbet. Genuinely a fab spot with excellent choices and service. 💜❤️🩷

Fantastic homemade ice-cream! Decent portion size and the best ice-cream I've had. Interesting flavours, friendly staff. Will be back!

The best ice cream and sorbet i've ever had, the flavours are so different and are changing all the time so you never know what your in for💕🍦🍨Queenie has exceptional customer service skills and is always a delight to talk to

Hands down our favourite ice cream shop in Melbourne! We always call up beforehand to make sure that our favourite flavour is in stock. Zoe was so lovely and patient and made our 6 YO daughter feel super special! She's doing an amazing job and I hope management acknowledges the excellent work she's doing in representing your brand and store! Thanks Zoe!

It’s been years since we’ve visited and I can’t believe there were actually others joining us to eat ice cream on a cold winters night. They have some of the yummiest flavours and sadly some of the most unpleasant staff. The woman who served us unfortunately behaved as though it was a great inconvenience. The ice cream however was delicious with very prominent mix ins. My husband had Hokey Pokey and hazelnut which was super tasty and I enjoyed Obamarama, pavlova and baked apple for some more unique options

It was such a hot day walking back from Port Melbourne Beach, and thank goodness for Jock’s. The ice cream is divine! Although the shop is not that big, it has the cheerful atmosphere and staff is lovely too.

Another hidden gem! It was so hard to choose; lucky for me, the person who was serving me recommended the hocky-pockey gelato and passionfruit sorbet – both were delicious. I got the chance to try the Turkish delight, and it was good too.

Classic ice cream shop. Lots of great flavours, mixed and plain. Able to taste before buying and pre-made packed tubs makes service fast. Friendly team.

Summer, Albert Park, Ice Cream all roads lead to Jocks the most amazing local ice creamery in Australia! With over 20 flavours its is a brain tease to mix and match your flavours. Too many to mention but I must say the hokey pokey and caramel are my fave! Do yourself a favour stop on by seats out the front and enjoy.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang. I mean, seriously. Dang. These guys are good. Their hokey-pokey? Actually contains proper honest-to-goodness honeycomb. It's got that slightly-burnt tang that you only get with the very best honeycomb. It's been an award-winner at the Melbourne show a few times as well, from memory. Because it's tasty. Dang tasty. In fact, the only problem is that there are so many enjoyable flavours they make that the Hokey Pokey doesn't really go with - from seasonal quince to a wide range of sorbets. Thankfully, those aren't your only options. Jocks also do a pretty good line in the traditional flavours - chocolate, vanilla, and the like. Best of all, they're open fairly late for an icecream shop, so there's no problem stopping off early on a wintry evening for a tasty waffle cone. (What? I like winter icecream, okay!)

People come from all over the city to make the pilgrimage Jock's and sample the delights on offer. Not just another average suburban ice creamery, Jock's has become somewhat of a Melbourne institution. And rightly so. With over 20 flavours to choose from, such as hokey pokey and baked apple it's no wonder that we keep on coming back for more. And more and more and more. Opening in 2001, the legend of his greatness spread quickly and soon enough Jock's became one of Melbourne's go-to spots for quality ice cream and sorbet. From the exotic turkish delight, to the classic chocolate ripple, every base is covered.Marvel at the wall of awards proudly displayed by the ice cream counter, they're there for a reason. Recognisable by the toothy-smiled, curly-haired Jock, grinning maniacally from the store's bright red logo, the crowds are never far. Come rain or shine, you can be guaranteed that there will be hordes of sticky-handed fans milling around the store's entrance.

Craving a really delicious ice cream and not wanting to get caught up in the hipster queuing frenzy at one of the modern gelato places, we decided to check out South-side institution, Jock's. It was perfect, exactly what we wanted. Just a really great ice cream store with good flavours. The shop was filled with eager families...and while their elbowing and shouting doesn't make it easy to choose a flavour, the line moves pretty fast and we didn't need to wait to get our ice cream. They have a couple of fridges full of flavours for a quick and easy take home option, or you can pick your scoops to eat straight away. If you want classic flavours from your childhood like hokey pokey - you'll find them here. Randomly, they also sell soup stock. Suppose you have to make money in winter too, right? It doesn't matter to me, I'll be eating this rain or shine when I next want ice cream. I have no idea how I haven't been there sooner!

Oh YUM. A zillion yums with a cherry on each of em. The other day I dragged my husband to Albert Park under the pretence of going to a nursery to purchase plant seeds. (Husband is a horticulture fan but not that into ice cream). I somehow managed to inveigle him into Jocks after our plant purchasing expedition where we ordered the pannacotta and berry ice cream and the classic choco. Instead of getting all Scroogy and Grinchy about the ice cream (as he is want to do) Hubby's face lit up and he proceeded to shovel most of the pannacotta flavour into his mouth. "It tastes as good as a Roman gelato", he proclaimed. He loved the chocolate too. Not too sweet and perfectly smooth, creamy, and rich. it's everything ice cream is supposed to be. I see more Albert Park sojourns in our future.

It's hard not to have a deep "need" for icecream when the weather gets above 25 degrees. If you find yourself south side it's hard to then not find your cure for this deep yearning at Jock's. With flavours that run from the classic (chocolate, strawberry, mango) to the unusual (turkish delight, licorice) and then to the downright indulgent and ludicrous (peanut butter and jelly) you will be a very happy camper indeed when you pay a visit. The move moves quickly, the staff are efficient and friendly. Kidlets can get a mini $3 cone. Grown ups have the option of waffle and regular cones and cups. Or, if it's really hot, take home some large tubs from the fridge so you can eat Jock's all night long.

Hands down the best ice cream in Melbourne. Nothing beats a cone of the cold stuff made lovingly with REAL ingredients. Too much of the ice cream sold in Melbourne is so fake nowadays that it really doesn't satisfy my ice cream connoisseur taste buds. I've tried so many of the flavours but the ones that stand out to me are the Baked Apple, Oven-Baked Nectarine, Cinnamon, Obamarama, Fig, Hokey Pokey, Zabaglione... ...yeah um I think I'll stop typing before I end up typing out their entire flavour roster! Summer, autumn, winter, spring - weather will never stop me from getting my Jock's Ice Cream fix!!

A good ice cream parlour and close to the beach, a good advantage over other places is you can get their ice cream in large litre tubs (I say only 4 stars because I went to Goodness Me later in the day)

I have always gone to Jock's as one of the greatest ice cream parlours in Melbourne. It's prime location near the beach and a tram stop just outside makes it very popular on hot days. With great flavours and an innate sense of locality Jock's really is the number one ice cream parlours. It gave me a great sense of shock then when I realised the price hike that had occurred, bringing the cost of a double flavour cone up around $7. However the question remains up to you. Do you pay these prices for ice creams no matter the quality?

Cones down this is the best ice cream in the southern hemisphere. Jock is luck that I can say that because if Italy was in the southern hemisphere he would have a run for his money. Nonetheless, this is the place to be when the mercury rises, or even before as you can buy takeaway tubs to store at home for such and occasion. All you have to do is look on the wall and you know by all the awards that the scoop(s) on your cone is going to send endorphins to all the right places. There are some many flavours to write about, however I will only mention my top two, the hockey pokey and panna cotta are stand outs in my mind. Be warned though that the flavours do change from time to time. If they don't have your flavour you will unfortunately (or happily) have to come back and try again.

Fantastic! By far one of the best places for ice cream in Melbourne! Unlike other ice cream stores, jocks use the best ingredients in their ice creams and it shows. The hokey pokey is a favourite, as well as the licorice and the gingerbread. If you're in the are you should definitely head to this great Albert Park institution

Jock's ice cream. I need a bucket for my drool just thinking about it. The ice cream is not just creamy, smooth, delicious, and oh so bad for you. It's also a wonderland of odd and original flavours, resulting usually in a queue of people too overwhelmed to decide what they're going to try this time. Usually I have to tell myself that I'll just have to come back again. What a shame. The only thing that amused me was that the black rice pudding ice cream was not gluten-free, and yet the christmas pudding flavour was. Opposite world, thy citizen is Jock. Never mind, though, I still have a bountiful selection, all best eaten in silence.
