Super delicious ice cream! All of the ice cream labels say if it's gluten free or if it contains wheat (most when I went were gf). Make sure to ask them to not top your bowl with pieces of the cones (they do this to the bowls by default).

The second best ice cream I’ve had. Only topped by a Spanish ice cream shop. They got out a new tub of ice cream to give me a guarantee that they did not have cross contamination. Great staff, great taste.

Delicious Jeni’s ice cream, friendly staff, and great (standardized) allergy protocol including glove and scoop changes and separate allergy tubs, just like all other Jeni’s locations. GF ice creams and dairy free desserts are marked on menus. They do process in a facility that also processes wheat, but I’m sensitive and have never had an issue at Jeni’s. (We went to Jeni’s because Pretty Nice was closed.)

Ask for an “Allergy Scoop” and they will get fresh ice cream from the back and use separate supplies. The flavors in the case are labeled which are gluten free. Make sure to say no waffle wedge. Delicious!

Almost all the flavors are gluten free. I asked if she could scoop from new tubs in the back with a new scooper and she had no problem doing that for me. I got a milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and coffee flavor and the coffee was my favorite.

every flavor I tried was SUPER sweet, a little too much for my taste, but the creaminess was awesome and there were a TON of GF options. Staff is knowledgeable and got an allergy scoop from the back containers!

Not a lot of options for gluten free people. Nothing is labeled on their menu and all the labels by the ice cream itself were wrong. Of the flavors I could eat, it was pretty average. Creamier than most ice creams but nothing super exceptional. I got peanut butter and chocolate.
