Editorial Review for Ben & Jerry's – by Michele McCole Moss
The Scene
It's not just about the ice cream. Ben and Jerry, two childhood friends from Vermont, built their empire on a great product laced with social awareness. Sit in this scoop shop, grab an unbleached napkin and gaze at the murals depicting hormone-free cows munching in green, organic pastures. While you're there, pick up literature supporting some local environmental causes.
The Food
What a difference pure, delicious ingredients can make. Favors include Chunky Monkey, Phish Food, Cherry Garcia and New York Super Fudge Chunk, just to name a few. Decadent sundaes swim in real hot fudge topped with fresh, homemade whipped cream. Cookies, brownies and waffle cones are lovingly baked each day in-house. For the light-at-heart, there are sorbet splashes--refreshing, fat-free fruit slushies.

Very yummy! I love to get the ice cream there at the shop, compared to the grocers freezer-- they keep it at a perfect temperature!!! They were very patient with us trying out all the flavors we wanted. I also like that we didn't have to stress over mix-ins etc... their pre-made flavors are rockin'!! Customer service was good when we went-- the tables were dirty and it was not crowded-- so i am not sure what happened there-- but it was worth cleaning my own table! :) We will definitely go back many times! The line can be out of hand on the weekends-- so we will only go when it's not too busy.
Pros: yummy
Cons: can be busy, no place to sit if it's busy
