lots of vegan options and a fun atmosphere

My family of four loved this place. The ice cream was yummy and there were lots of unique vegan options - all store made. The store was decorated with local art (Star Wars) and lots other fun decor. Highly recommend.

Previously the best

Everything a vegan could want when it comes to ice cream! Sadly it closed recently (not due to lack of business), but it will always live on in our hearts.

**UPDATE**

ICJ reopened under new owners, but it doesn't compare to the original. Knocking it down to 2 stars.

Simply The Best!

There is no doubt this is the best vegan ice cream around. Incredible flavors, exhaustive variety, and impeccable taste and consistency. I have never had a bad experience here. The staff is knowledgeable and very courteous as well. As a plus they are not just vegan friendly, but also offer a 'helmet' discount if you bike there and wear a helmet! They just Love people and ice cream. And coffee, they love coffee too!

Pros: A wide variety of vegan flavors., Up to date website. , Super friendly staff.

Cons: Not open 24 hours a day. 😀

Yummy non dairy options

They have nothing but love for vegans . When a business makes an effort to not only have vegan options, but to also clearly label them saving me from that awkward "is it vegan? Are you sure? Can I see the label?" conversation, I am impressed. There were 5 or 6 vegan ice cream flavors. I tried the vanilla, and chocolate swirl. In all honesty, it was a bit icy, a quality of which many vegan vanilla based ice creams are guilty. Their homemade vegan chocolate sauce and whipped cream though, out of this world! I have searched high and low for a vegan hot fudge, and it just doesn't exist. While this was not hot fudge, it tasted just like it, minus the fact that it wasn't actually, you know, hot. It was thick like fudge. I haven't licked an ice cream bowl clean since I was a kid, but you better believe there wasn't a drop left when I was done. The whipped cream was yummy too. I will definitely be back to try more flavors as they change regularly (they seem to be good at keeping the website up to date, again, very awesomely convenient).
