From the moment I heard there was a Ben & Jerry's scoop shop in the Jack London Square area, I had been wanting to visit. I finally had the chance to make that visit. It was another really hot summer day in Contra Costa and a well deserved late afternoon break was exactly what I needed. From my own experience with Ben & Jerry's scoop shops, this scoop shop located in Jack London Square is pretty good size. There are two entrances into this shop, one gives you the "You're entering Ben & Jerry's" feel, with the logo sign over your head. And then there's a side entrance which puts you directly in front of the ice cream ordering counter, with friendly faces waiting to help you. This Ben & Jerry's scoop shop doesn't just serve up ice cream, they have sorbet, smoothies, shakes, hot chocolate, ice cream cakes, etc. They had samplings of waffle cones available for my visit. It was delicious. As with many ice cream shops, you're allowed to try other flavors. After trying a couple of ice cream flavors and sorbet flavors, I opted for their sorbet flavors of Lemonade and Margarita. The Lemonade was on the tart side, which is what I was hoping it would be, it was perfect. Because of the size of the shop, there are a few tables to sit at to enjoy your desserts. But if you choose not to sit inside, there are benches scattered throughout Jack London Square for sitting and it's only a couple of short blocks to the waterfront. Cost wise? I personally, thought it was a tad on the pricier side. $6 for 2 scoops of ice cream, when I can get an entire pint of Ben & Jerry's ice cream at the grocery store for less than $6. Yes, visiting an actual Ben & Jerry's scoop shop is a treat. But overall, Ben & Jerry's is a great brand, they have great ice cream. I can't wait to go back to experience their hot chocolate.
