Love what the company does as a whole and this location stands to meet that level of excellence. The staff handles the track season in Saratoga Springs very well and stays cranking out the ice cream. Even during the off season, they meet and exceed expectations. Not only are they willing to help you find the ice cream right for you, they offer new fun twist and also help you no matter how busy. Always a stopping point when we leave Saratoga after a night and/or dinner.

A Saratoga Springs must, this is a great location with outdoor seating and a long list of their best flavors.

They were out several flavors, at least the ones my grandson and his friend wanted. I had a large waffle that was soggy and I had to look down into the cone to see the ice cream.Go Brandon.

I did an Uber eats order to surprise my husband with ice cream for his birthday, and a delivery driver from Uber never picked it up, so to whomever I talk to on the phone I greatly appreciate you taking the order to my husband. If I can give you more than five stars I would… Great customer service!

It’s Ben and Jerry’s! If it’s hot, get an ice cream. If it’s cold, get an ice cream. If you’re non-dairy, they’ve still got ice cream for you! What’s not to love? The strawberry cheesecake was very tasty !

Love to get ice cream for my dog here and they always give him a scoop no charge. The staff is friendly but a little slow which can get stressful due to the small space and COVID worries.

Nothing better than a Ben & Jerrys Sunday upstate with flavors that dont exist in the City. Nice and peaceful

Friendly staff. Excellent with my milk allergy. They change to a new carton of sorbet, new scooper, and new gloves. Each time I go, the employee always does this without me asking!

Super complicated flavors made from real cream and delicious ingredients. You can never go wrong with a Ben & Jerrys ice cream cone. Loved the big wooden swing you can sit on outside this small location in downtown Saratoga!Order the Tonight Dough, it was the best!

Clean & inviting space. Even had a decent selection of B&J t-shirts. Staff were super friendly, helpful and patient. Had modifications to keep customers and staff safe from COVID. As always, the ice cream was delish!

Always a special treat after taking kids to dinner. Historic too. The oldest Been and Jerrys in the world! Was first of the franchise chain.

Review №21

The ice cream is just the best, of course! But the staff is incredibly nice, patient (so many flavors), and enthusiastic. Ben & Jerrys is always a great stop after lunch or dinner downtown -- but their ice cream cakes are great for special occasions too!

Cozy, if not small, ice cream place. Anything youd expect from Ben and Jerrys. Clean store and cute seating outside

Review №26

Our ice cream cart was the perfect surprise for our September 2019 wedding guests! The line moved quickly and everyone enjoyed getting to pick from our six flavor choices. Some went back for seconds! We would highly recommend this crowd-pleaser any time of year.

Nevermind their politics, the ice cream is amazing.

Not a good value or product. Kilwins on broadway is much better on both metrics. Ordered a sundae and got 1 scoop of ice cream with hot fudge on it. No whipped cream or cherry. It just looked pathetic.

Now has 2 Vegan ice creams! So, if youre allergic to eggs, you can still have Cookie dough ice cream & coconut almond fudge chip!

Always amazing

Review №33

Here’s the thing, their service is very welcoming and the ice cream really delicious. However what annoys me is they involve politics into their business. It’s an ice cream shop and they’ve got posters on their walls claiming there political views and there opinions on the president! It doesn’t matter what party I am or what party they are you don’t do that in a popular fast food chain KIDS are very often in!

They come to the Schenectady music haven concert series all the time. Their ice cream is great but their prices arent! $7.00 for a jumbo cup, staff are very nice so price doesnt matter.

I dont usually eat ice cream, but our local Ben and Jerrys is such a lovely little spot, I stop by from time to time.The employees are great, very respectful. I have a service dog, so he gets a special treat too. The outdoor seating is plentiful and beautiful. My dog Bailey loves to eat his treat on the swing.

These guys (and girls) are great. My husband and I (and our 5 month old daughter and two dogs) come here often... probably a little more often than we should, but whatever. The ice cream is always really good, everybody is friendly... and holy cow, I just tried one of their cookies for the first time the other day... yummy. One time I asked to buy a little cup of hot fudge for some ice cream Id just purchased, and they had it to me for free. My ONLY complaint is that the bathroom could really use some maintenance. Im sure the employees do the best they can; the bathroom itself just needs an update. And, perhaps... a changing table? Too much to ask?

Jake was such a personable guy. Thanks for your service! Great yogurt! And I love that they are political! I support their views!

They are nice friendly helpful staff. As far as ben and Jerrys go. I would not give them a dime of my money any more. Look at the resist sign you will see why.

Review №45

Be prepared to pay the premium price of Saratoga and Ben & Jerrys. 2 small ice creams in a cup and waffle cone with 2 bottles of soda came to over $17. The ice cream was delicious and the live music and patio make for a great after dinner stop.

Review №46

The ice cream is decent. The selection is great. Staff is friendly. Service was a little slow. Outdoor seating was really nice. They had a gazebo and large swings for the whole family. However the outdoor seating is right next to a stinky trash can which ruins the experience. Overall a good experience for the family, if you stay away from the trash can.

I had strawberry cheesecake ice cream. It didnt taste like cheesecake at all. Stewarts is much better!

Review №51

Staff is friendly and made up of mainly high school and college kids. The ice cream is legendary and for good reason. 🍒 Cherry Garcia is my favorite and the husband loves the Tubby Hubby... so I usually make him walk with me through Congress Park after getting our cones 😂 In the summer you can sit on the wooden glider swings and benches available and people watch. You can often here the music at night coming from Caroline St. Id recommend this place for families with small kids because its a little less busy than Broadway and offers more parking close by. The park and carousel is a great place to let the little ones wear off some of their sugar high in at a safe distance from the roads and traffic.

The person behind the counter had some visitors stop in while we where there. He used very profane language while talking to them in front of my 7 year old a 1 year old. Completely unprofessional especially in what should be a family environment.

Ben and Jerrys... Great ice cream in a great setting of downtown Saratoga Springs. Lots to choose from on the menu. During track season or the summer months be prepared to wait, but its worth it.

Review №75

Almost 6 dollars for a hunk of melty sugar milk on a cone. Not really worth it. Fun location tho

Jo
Review №76

The overly full dumpsters and neglected dumpsters made for a foul experience. Not sure if the dumpsters belong to Ben & Jerrys or the apartments next door. Either way could not enjoy the ice cream with the foul stench and flies.

Delicious, feels local despite being huge national brand. Get Americone Dream, 5/5 best flavor, waffle cones for days made fresh #notaplant #defgenuine

Review №78

Good ice cream, nice outdoor area to sit, and small indoor area. They sell cakes, shirts, drinks, and all kinds of ice cream, sundaes, toppings etc. Pretty expensive for what you get.

Ba
Review №79

Extremely inconsistent scoop sizes. Paid for 2 large dishes of ice cream that wouldnt even fill a pint of hand packed ice cream half way. Taking advantage of the tourist season. 2 small $1 containers from the grocery store frozen section would be more ice cream than what we received in a large dish.

Good atmosphere and employees are all very helpful. However, we ordered a chocolate dipped waffle cone, and the waffle cone wasnt all the way cooked. However, the ice cream, as always, was delicious.

Average ice cream, nothing special. Inside of store is dirty, EXTREMELY OVERPRICED!!! It costed me $16 for 2 ice cream cones! Bought only because it was a special occasion. NEVER coming back.

Walked in 30 min before closing, they were making. The employee made a very rude mark to us and proceeded to make smart remarks. She was plain miserable and had a God awful attitude. They did not even have a wet floor sign out. They are setting themselves up for a lawsuit.
