Head to our Cleveland ice cream shop and dig into any of our euphoric Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavors in the way the first scoops were served up by Ben and Jerry back in 1978. Come enjoy a freshly baked waffle cone, shake or sundae with your favorite flavors.
I am concerned that the staff seem to be very uninformed as to what "gluten free" actually means - referring to it as "like keto" and believing that all of the ice cream cones "should be gluten free because they dont say that they 'have gluten' in them." There are some places that do offer GF cones, so its always worth an ask, especially when this chain advertises GF products. Fortunately, I know that products containing gluten wont write "gluten" as the ingredient but rather wheat, barely, rye, malt, etc. As the server read the cone box and said the word "wheat" it still didn't seem to click.
I then asked if there were two versions of the Ultra Violet, as one sign depicted this flavor being gluten free but the other did not specify. I felt this was a reasonable ask, but the servers seemed to be bewildered. While YES, having Celiac Disease makes it my responsibility to ask these questions, indicate my needs, and ensure I am an informed customer, it is ALSO food service industry workers responsibility (and moreso management) to ensure they are all knowledgeable and well-versed on allergens when serving those with diverse needs. Having Celiac disease makes me feel like a burden at times when asking pertinent questions but receiving stares or feeling like I was stupid for asking makes it even worse.
I am also dissatisfied with the portion sizes...$8 for a large cup which is considered a medium portion at most other places and these large cups are more expensive than the actual store pints.

Came in with my service animal and was immediately berated by the two employees even after I informed them that he is a service animal. Very off brand for Ben and Jerry’s to employ these people.

So good we went twice in a row! Great variety of flavors, especially those you don’t see in stores. The team was super nice and provided amazing service. I made mention that I was lactose intolerant but wanted a strawberry mango milkshake. The “barista” took extra effort to ensure everything was non dairy or close to it— down to the whip cream. We will definitely become regulars!

It's great having another Ben & Jerrys in cleveland and it's great. With quick service and plenty of options they have all of your main staples you find at the grocery store but served at a much nicer temperature. There is also skoop shop exclusive flavors that you will not find at your local grocery stores. You will also find sundaes and drinks. It's a great time. It's also super close to the theaters at playhouse square. I just wish it had more seating there is only 5 table in the place and especially being in dow town cleveland no one wants to stand outside to eat ice cream for half of the year.
