About Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams

Located at 2871 University Ave, San Diego, CA 92104, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams operates as an ice cream shop serving San Diego in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

American bakeries range from wholesale operations that supply restaurants to neighborhood shops that sell bread, pastries, cookies and cakes over the counter, and many of them also pour coffee. Bagel shops boil and bake on site and sell out of favorite flavors by late morning; donut shops open before dawn and are often family-run; patisseries and cake studios take custom orders for weddings and birthdays and usually need one to two weeks' notice. Ice cream parlors, gelato shops and frozen yogurt bars are seasonal in the northern states and year-round in the South and on the West Coast. Prices are posted per item, by the dozen or by the pound, and most shops now take cards and mobile payment.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. Typical hours are 1 pm–12 am. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible.

San Diego is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. Getting around San Diego is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across California's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

The service was so good. The staff seemed happy to be there and were very helpful in helping us pick a flavor. The ice cream was delicious and made from quality ingredients. I will definitely be back.

This could easily be 5 stars, but we have to be candid and honest, or else what good is a review, right? So the service is very friendly; the store appears clean, and the ice cream quality is excellent, but… there is only a tiny wood bench to sit on, and it will accommodate maybe 4 people at best. There are no tables anywhere to sit down, and the price is absolutely ridiculous. A β€œstandard” size is 2 scoops, but they are so small, it amounts to less than common single scoop anywhere else. And the kicker… it’s over eight dollars!!! Sorry, but you can’t justify that price simply by claiming the cows are grass fed!

Loved all the gluten free and dairy free options!!! It's like they made it all for me! Creamy yet still has the feel of real hard icecream...the waffle bowl my son got was really crunchy and buttery. The staff were patient and helpful. No long lines at 10pm on a Thursday!! A 'must go back' to get more!!!!

The scoops were small, and the waffle wasn’t tasty. I paid $10 for two half-scoopsβ€”and for that price, you could get something much better at Handel’s

Very creamy and smooth, super premium ice cream! Wide variety of creative flavors. Super delicious flavors include Brambleberry Crisp, Honey Vanilla Bean, Lemon Bar, Darkest Chocolate, and Coffee with Cream & Sugar! Very friendly and knowledgeable staff provides samples! Freshly made Buttercrisp Waffle Cones and Bowls! Limited seating inside and outside. Jeni’s founder, Jeni Britton, received the James Beard Award for her ice cream. Jeni’s makes ice cream completely from scratch, using Jeni’s original recipe of high-quality ingredients, including super fresh milk from family-run dairies, and fresh fruits and vegetables.
