Ben & Jerry’s

This is a nice little shop. It serves Ben and Jerry’s ice cream which is a favorite of mine so you can’t really go wrong here as far as quality. My visit was pleasant, the staff there is great and although it was busy the wait wasn’t too long. It’s not a very good location in which I enjoy hanging out at and the cost of cups and cones are pretty high for what you get. However the ice cream is great, and the waffle bowls and cones taste great, plus the service is pretty good as well.

I enjoy the chunkiness of Ben and Jerry’s icecream. I also like the variety of intense flavors they have to offer. My favorite is chubby hubby, but I also like milk and cookies, fish food, salted caramel, and more. This is a nice and large location too with fountains and a large patio.

Great place to get ice cream and eat it on the spot. The place is never busy, and there is a grass area for children to play in. Occasionally they will have live performances to entertain you and the family. My favorite part is the wonderful aroma of sugary goodness when you walk in. It never gets old.

I want to like Ben & Jerry’s. Their tie dye swirls of hippy décor and funky flavours give off a happy vibe. The location is perfect– get your ice cream and then go sit by the fountain outside. My personal favorite flavor is the Chocolate Therapy. Chocolate ice cream with chocolate pudding and cookies mixed in. It doesn’t matter that I eat it with a spoon and I’m an adult. I still manage to get a chocolate ring around my mouth like I’m a toddler again. It’s so good.
My complaint with Ben & Jerry’s is that you don’t get what you pay for. I had a coupon out of the Attractions book for «buy one menu item, get one menu item for free.» We ordered three small ice creams, two in cups, one in a cone. And the bill still came to $ 10.05. That’s roughly $ 5 for a small ice cream, which I find ridiculous. I could go to Feeneys and get more soft serve for that. Or make the drive to Homeland Creamery, pay $ 3 and get so much ice cream I can’t even finish it. While I like Ben & Jerry’s, I feel like they only stay in business because of the location.

You can’t go wrong with Ben & Jerry’s, especially when it’s at an open mall like this :) It’s so nice to get some ice cream, and sit outside and listen to the music.

I had a wonderful experience here this week, and it was my first visit so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Not as many flavors/​selections as a Baskin Robbins, but better quality ice cream, in my opinion. My co-​worker and I had had a rather difficult morning, so the cheerful and very helpful server was almost as appreciated as the delicious ice cream. And there is a lovely courtyard/​patio with a fountain and lounge chairs/​tables behind the restaurant to enjoy your treats if you don’t want to eat inside. The only drawback is the parking… this location is in the middle of a very busy intersection of streets in the Friendly Shopping Center, making parking a bit of an ordeal.

I was craving ice cream and was in the area and saw Ben and Jerry’s and made a stop. It is typical Ben and Jerry’s. They have a decent amount of flavors. I got a waffle cone with a scoop of milk n cookies and a scoop of cookie dough. Good. The waffle cone was awesome. It was clearly fresh and still warm. My cone with two scoops was 5.76. This is a tad expensive but comparable to Cold Stone or Baskin Robbins. If I had to pick one of the chains, I think I would pick this one.
The outside patio is adorable and perfect. The weather right now is 80, overcast, and breezy. The fountain adds a nice touch of background noise to the peaceful calm. Great place to inhale your cone.

Love their ice cream! My favorite is the chocolate chip cookie dough! It’s so rich and creamy. There’s a cookie dough in every bite! They have plenty of selections and sell some in pints too. The staff is friendly and accommodating and you can’t ask for better seating. Their right next to this beautiful fountain (it’s very relaxing). We went last Monday and got serenaded by a choir who sang awesome songs and it just made the night amazing.

Cute! This b&j is adorable, located ij the center of the friendly center shopping mall. Glass panels. If you outside there js a water fountain. Inside is a bathroom and water fountain. Great ambiance! In fact, the best ben and jerry ambiance that i’ve been to. Standard ben and jerry’s varieties here.

Stopped here because we had a groupon for 3 pints for a certain price. Parking was a bit tough since it’s in the middle of a shopping plaza but we managed. Building is small but staff was friendly and they offered us a sample of practically everything… almost like they were being sales people for certain flavors. After trying about 5 different flavors, we made up our minds and they packed the pints and sent us on our way.
Only thing I did notice that I didn’t approve of is that they scooped ice cream from old containers on top of the new ice cream. I used to work in an ice cream shop and we were told NEVER do that because it contaminates the new product. But oh well, every one does it differently.

This place is so overpriced. I love Ben and Jerry’s but it’s better to get it at your supermarket. The waffle cones here were so soggy and stale. Disappointing. It was more than $ 4 for a cone of one scoop of ice cream. They had only the usual flavors that I could find in the grocery store. The lady behind the counter wasn’t good at handling the crowd. She couldn’t tell who came in first, wasn’t sure who’s order she should take. It seemed disorganized and slow.

I have to say that I miss the Ben & Jerry’s at the Palladium. Since this location is the closest one by I am forced to go here when I have that craving for Butter Pecan and a fresh Waffle Cone!
Service was good, nothing spectacular or anything and the ice cream and cone tasted just like it should… signature Ben & Jerry’s.
Inside it’s really small, no frills or anything like that but there are a few tables to sit down at to enjoy your frozen concoction if you chose to do so.
Service was so much more special and friendly at the Palladium location.

I can’t say anything bad about Ben and Jerry’s ice cream; but as others have noted, the location isn’t the best and I’m sure it could be annoying on a summer evening or warm weekend. I’ve dropped in twice and the staff were friendly and the shop was clean.
If you haven’t been to a store location, you might be interested to know that there are a couple flavors that are only available in shop. I love their mint chocolate chunk, which is a shop exclusive.

We love this Ben & Jerry’s! The location is in the heart of Shoppes at Friendly. On nice nights, there are always lots of people outside — sitting, strolling, socializing, and. .. eating B & J’s! They have lots of different flavors and are happy to give samples before you order. The ice cream is pretty pricey, but they always have BOGO coupons in the local «Attractions» book and sometimes pass out similar coupons from the store. Hubby and I usually get «kids cones» — a more economical and calorie friendly way to enjoy Ben & Jerry’s. I’m also a huge fan of their environmental and sustainability policies. And, their new line of frozen Greek yogurts (in shops and pints) is excellent!

You cant really give Ben & Jerry’s a bad review, the ice cream is just too fantastic. Really unless you walk in and the dude behind the counter is eating a baby and peeing into the freezer they should always get high marks. They only reason this one only got four stars from me is because its right at the entrance to a shopping center on its own little lonely island with no parking at all.
