    Got there mint chip ice cream shake with rainbow 🌈 Jimmies and carmel, hot fudge drizzled on the inside edges. Like a mudslide. Service was excellent. Great atmosphere. #firsttimethere

    The fruity pebbles cereal ice cream is the best! I’d love to see it offered more frequently. Nice staff at this location. In general for this ice cream parlor chain, I do think the price is a bit steep.

    2021: Excellent ice cream. Easy physical distancing with no one eating in the store. 2024: Excellent ice cream continues. Many flavors and other dessert options.

    Came pre melted, asked for two flavors and only got one, when i went back rather than re making it got a sample cup of the second flavor. All that and the highest price I've ever spent on two scoops for a just ok flavor. Picture is of what was left after 5 minutes

    Rolled in with the second and third grade softball team after the first game. The two guys working did a great job getting everyone’s order and turned it right around. Can’t say enough about the staff. They did great with a bunch of girls who kept changing their order. Would recommend. Place is clean well kept as always.

    The ice cream was really good, I got a brownie Sunday and it was great! However the price and serving size was a little outrageous compared to most other places. My girlfriend and I got a Sunday each, and a muffin and it was more or less $30. Very friendly staff behind the counter though, even with a line it was fast.

    Great place. My boys and I loved it. I wish they had more seating but I understand! I'll definitely go back

    Absolutely disgusting ice cream. By far the worst I have ever had.

  • 5/5 Brendan K. 8 months ago on Google
    A bit pricey, but very good ice cream

    Fairly long wait for over priced mediocre ice cream.

    Wrong ice cream && all 3 sides ( toppings ) 1/2 full. So bummed!

    Been a long time since I visited a J P Licks and I have to wonder why? Excellent ice cream in a wide variety of flavors (salted caramel cookies and cream!), including non-dairy and frozen yogurt offerings. As a bonus (or maybe not?) this particular store had bakery items and the caramelized puff pastry creation was amazing!

    The staff were really friendly, the coffee was good and the ice cream, delicious! As tourists this was a great find and we will definitely be back!

    I am a huge ice cream fan. Have been enjoying J. P. Licks for years. Enjoyed my favorite flavor cappuccino crunch! It wasn't to crowded so we were served quickly by friendly servers!

    Small but nice store. Friendly staff. Tasty icecream. Street parking available depending on when you visit.

    Have had issues with under-filled containers. A packed quart weighs about 900 gms and recently I purchased two quarts which weighed in the low 700's. Sadly, the staff working there are mainly high school kids who sometimes don't have the best work ethic and get lazy with the packing, especially on busy days or at the end of a shift. At $15 quart this is unacceptable. Management needs to get involved with this issue. To be fair, the ice cream is very good and the management did refund my money.

    Jp is my fav ice cream store. The one here in Wellesley is great because the kids who work there are all super polite and kind.
