Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams

Milk and cream from family-run dairies, high-quality fruits and vegetables and more ethically sourced chocolate, vanilla and coffee—there’s a reason why Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams has stuck around for over two decades, and earned an official B Corp certification and James Beard recognition in the process. Even compared to other gourmet ice cream heavyweights with outposts scattered across Los Angeles, the buttercream-esque body of the ice cream ensures Jeni’s stands out. Though you can now find Jeni’s in the freezer aisle, everyone knows that ice cream tastes best when made fresh, and L.A. is lucky enough to have six locations in Venice, Los Feliz, Larchmont, Playa Vista, Beverly Hills and Highland Park. Plus, you’ll get to pick from over 20 eclectic flavors, including whiskey and pecan; a vegan-friendly cold brew with coconut cream; and frosé sorbet. Looking for something traditional-leaning? Even the Milkiest Chocolate is killer. You truly can’t go wrong. If there isn’t something on the signature menu, the limited-edition menu will surely have an option that will pique your interest.
