Johnson's Real Ice Cream, Chicago

I always walk by, I'm going to work out at Lincom Park, I go in with my brother today to buy ice cream, I saw outside glued the flavors' names. Between and opt for something simple and simple vanilla ice cream my brother went for chocolate and mint, but I think he liked me something wrong, I don't know if it was lactose or the combination, but he doesn't like me. I personally had never been to a place very fast he took care of us very quickly, I didn't even know where to tip. The place looks simple, the ice cream is craftsman feels about the taste. I'd recommend it to try once it's okay. The price is accessible, it cost me $12.17. The staff were at least cut.

The ice cream is delicious!! They have a ton of flavors! I go here a lot in the summer. You really can’t go wrong with any of the flavors. Highly recommend if have a sweet tooth. The ice cream is great at Johnson’s!!

We really enjoyed our visit to Johnson’s! My ice cream was so voluminous (see photo of my Salted Caramel Choco Pretzel Trap single scoop) that it exploded my waffle cone - which they reinforced with a second cone right away. The service was great, the ice cream was delicious and the location was very cute.

Well this place is pretty cute, but they were out of SO MANY flavors. They also can’t do samples right now due to covid (shocker) and you are not able to eat your ice cream in the store anywhere- not standing or sitting at any tables. Kinda lame that we had to stand outside in 90• weather when there wasn’t a soul in the building- we would have loved to sit in the a/c for a minute to eat. The younger lady working was also not very friendly.

I'm a little disappointed that the place is card only, but I honestly loved every flavor there was to offer. They were all creamy and thick, which a lot of ice cream shops trying to make fun new flavors can't provide. My favorite by far was the butterscotch/caramel ice cream with toffee in it. I couldn't get enough of it.

Not Recommended (updated - 1 out of 5): Previous Review: I could easily give it a 1 instead of 2, but tried my best not to be harsh. Honestly, I found this place highly overrated. The ice cream is OK, but they were frozen hardly - like a stone. Ice creams are supposed to smooth. I even found small pieces of ice in my ice cream. In addition to poor quality, the day which my friends and I visited this place was really hot and we decided to stay inside. Unfortunately, the AC didn’t work and they had a few fans in the store but they were using them for their own employees - and not customers! Recent visit: let me start with the fact that my wife is a huge fan of supporting family businesses. She asked me to go there again and change the score if we see improvements. When we went there and talked to the employees (two ladies), she immediately noticed that they both are very rude. We left the place without buying anything. I don’t know how fool an owner could be to not know the main reason they are keeping the lights on is because of the customers and they should respect them.

The ice cream was good, but rather than a traditional ice cream shop, the ice cream is hidden away in metal containers. Part of the fun in getting ice cream is visibly seeing the choices rather than reading from a menu to decide. I had a hard time knowing what I'd want. For that, I dropped the rating down as that's a very important component of the ice cream experience.

Ice cream is fine, it's pretty standard. What ruined my experience here was the staff, who were extremely rude throughout the whole ordering process. Who rolls their eyes when you tell them what you want? It seemed like neither of the two employees wanted to be there. The least you can do for your business is some customer service training. Won't be back!
