Review Ben & Jerry's - Melbourne

Greg Bowering
I had not yet had dessert and the inviting glow of BEN&JERRY'S made me temporarily forget all other plans and concerns. The salted caramel blondie and chocolate fudge brownie both looked good. But I was wrong. They were magnificent!

Loved it !! Lot’s of flavours to choose from and the staff is very friendly and assists you with everything you could try. Even you can taste the flavour before buying it.

We visited this store today and they had a new flavour of ice cream chewy gooey cookie. We wanted to try this flavour for the brownie special which is $9.90, when I asked the guys for a taste of this new favour he said they don’t do tasting any more . So we decided to pick our normal ice cream choice and he served us the worst brownie special with a ton of chocolate sauce in the glass. He had all the brownie placed at the bottom of the cup with ton of the chocolate sauce. Worst brownie special I ever had, doesn’t even deserve a one star. 0 star for the feedback received : As per one of the review below you had tasting last month . So yesterday you decided to Not allow tasting ? This is a joke. Your other shops provide tasting . Check prior to responding to the feedback Will never visit this shop Ever

Easily one of the worst customer service interactions I have ever had. I went there around 8:30pm, and the 3 girls that were working there, were ignoring all the customers that were wanting to order, meanwhile here they are talking to one another about boys and what should they do for about 5 minutes….. When I ordered, they took forever for my order as they went back to chit chatting

Ice cream makes most people happy and Ben & Jerry's is very good at delivering happy ice cream. I like their flavour range and they taste way better than Sorbet. Korean dishes contain a lot of garlic & chili, and consuming B&J’s ice cream is a great way to clean taste buds.

Ohhhh my goodness I forgot how amazing B&J is in a waffle cone. Try the Strawberry Cheesecake 🍓 it will change your life

One of the few places you can get a gooood ice cream in Melbourne. The iced creams are towards the sweeter side. So, it's a good one for those with sweet tooth. Btw, they sell ice cream flavoured lip balms too!
Craig Allen
They sell a great range of Ben and Jerry's favourites. The vegan ice cream is really nice as well.

Everyone wants to try something new and different. So one of the reason I love this ice cream the flavours satisfy, with lots of options and vegan friendly.

With so many great artisan ice creams Melbourne has to offer, I just do not understand how come Ben & Jerry's don't up their game.<br/>The only difference from store bought ice cream is that they may have some more combinations.

I like Ben and Jerry’s (New York super fudge chunk) usually but for nearly $6 a scoop that’s pretty stingy . I won’t be back , or maybe next time Il check the size before paying

It is great to find some Ben & Jerry ice cream in the city. I love to try out different flavours you can’t buy from stores. <br/><br/>The staff serving me was really nice. Although the display does not look appealing and the price are quite high, the flavours of ice creams are delicious. I love the strawberry cheesecake and the coffee buzz buzz, as well as their vegan flavours.

Decided to head to Ben & Jerry’s for some ice cream in the afternoon. This store can get pretty busy with it’s convenient location just off Swanston St.<br/><br/>The staff here are super friendly and patient, and they let you try the flavours too! After testing multiple flavours (all of which were delicious so it was a hard to decide), I settled on ‘A Cookie Affair’. It was sweet, indulgent and the portion was very generous! I loved the waffle cone as well!<br/><br/>A very good ice cream experience, and I will definitely be coming back! Worth checking out if you’re in the city!

Been loving this ice cream brand since I was still a kid in Singapore. One of the best I’ve ever tried. Can buy a tub and just Netflix and chill. Must try those flavours where there is either brownie, cheesecake or dough. Taste like heaven in your mouth.
Quince And Cheese
Tried the vegan coconut almond fudge flavour. It wasn't the best vegan ice cream I've had and the fudge chunks could be more generous, but it was pretty good. Scoop size was alright but it was given to me nearly falling off the cone. The venue was busy but still not an excuse to justify such precarious placement. Might stick with buying my own pints to scoop at home from now on.

I found a gem in Melbourne on the first day of my trip to Australia..... Ben & Jerry😍<br/><br/>Ordered<br/>* Brownie Sundae😋<br/><br/>The taste is so good you can't resist to have it again 😊<br/><br/>The only drawback is it doesn't have place to sit, just a takeaway but honestly i would recommend this for your taste buds of ice creams 😜
Megha Agarwal
It’s a small take away outlet near Swanston st. The flavours of be and Jerry are no wonder great. But we had the cookie Sunday, with layers of two flavoured ice cream, cookies, cream, sauce.

Your Standard Ben & Jerry’s. Had their mint choco shake. Wasn’t amazing, but fairly ok. Their charge $9.4 for large, $8 something for small (~50% smaller) you kinda have to go large even if you’re conscious about fat/sugar
Patronus
Had the Entertainment Book buy one get one free voucher. Wow the scoope and the cone was divine. Massive sugar overload! Too big to finish. Love all the flavours!
Savvy And Lifestyle
I was on the prowl today for many deserts how could you walk past here at such a central location. My ever dreamy chocolate chip cookie dough went down a treat, oh my it's a taste of heaven however very rich for me hence why I ordered 1 scoop at a very expensive price. They need to lower the prices on their whole menu the pricing is quite ridiculous on every item.

Yummy creamy variety of ice creams and ice cream milk shakes. Love the interesting flavours. Service was friendly and quick. Ice cream is on the pricey side.
Nay Nay
Huge fan of B&Js as I called it. Quick service well priced and neatly scooped. Im a slow eater but i finished this icecream so quick as it was just that damn good 😋

Ben and Jerry’s is probably my favourite brand of ice cream. Not only is it delicious but they also have a social conscience. I recently went into their Swanston St store just to get a normal ice cream and walked out with one of their amazing chocolate sundays! It was choc full of creamy ice cream, chocolate topping and rich pieces of brownie throughout. I shared it with my friend and by the end we were fighting over the next bite. I’d say ice cream is the perfect accompaniment to a sunny day but the truth is I would and do eat it all year round. Do yourself a favour the next time you’re in the area grab yourself a sunday!

Flying Forward
I keep forgetting this place is here, because it's kind of tucked away around the corner of Swanston St.<br/>For me, it's very American, over the top, throw everything into each flavour. <br/>The chocolate fudge brownie is deepy choc-lately obviously, and will satisfy your craving.<br/>Good location, give it a go if you haven't tried and have been living under a rock for 10 years.

Coming from Canada, where Ben and Jerry's isnt that big of a deal, I was wondering if it would taste any different here since my Australian friends seem to be very into it! <br/><br/>I had their strawberry cheesecake and was a bit disappointed with the outcome. The ice cream itself was creamy and not icy, the way ice cream should be, but the flavour was definitely not what I wanted. Subtle cheesecake flavours and minimal strawberry chunks/ flavour in my scoop. Since it is cheesecake, I would've liked more graham cracker mixed in it as well. From my other experiences with other ice cream parlors, or even other tubs of ice cream we can get at supermarkets, I dont think I will pay the price for a scoop at Ben and Jerry's.

Ice cream is good but today I get an impolite service. So sad. I work in the same service but we need to learn how to make people day not ruining people day.

I enjoy ice cream but I don't really crave for ice cream ... except if it's Ben & Jerry's (and sometimes Messina)! What I love the most is their flavours. Anything with cookie dough or chocolate fudge brownie has my vote. This is the Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Dough which has some of my favourite things including peanut butter, cookie dough, chocolate and chocolate chip. Staff is efficient here and there are a lot of choices. My only negative is that I didn't see any seating options.
The Darth Zader
Ordered a double scoop in a cup. Had the strawberry cheesecake and chocolate chip cookie dough...... expensive but very very tasty ice cream.

Not your cheapest ice cream but always big in flavour, scoops and variety. Love their cones which is a dessert in itself. Ben & Jerry’s never fails to deliver and is always a popular choice.
Annisa Prameswari Kesumaningrum
Amazing! Try couple of the flavour and everything taste so well! A 5 star ice cream that will make you addicted! <br/>Compare to the other ice cream shop in town this one will a lil bit pricey, but the taste is worth the price.
Eat_today_diet_tomorrow
Not fancy looking but taste amazing ! I tried this brand 10 years ago back in the US. And I have been craving it ! Now they have it in melbourne cbd. This brand has never disappointed me ! Love the cookie dough in the ice cream 🤤<br/><br/>
DuckieLovesToEat
This place is heaven especially on a hot summer day! I love the variety of ice cream. This place is definitely worth a visit. Wait staff are obliging and patient whenever you asked for a sample prior to your purchase.
Miss_live_to_eat ✔️
Finally I tried it. After years of wait and want, at last I did. Well the wait was worth it. My picks are the choco brownie and the cookie dough flavours. Important tip: never try a single scoop. Coz you will always crave for more, I went for the hand packed box. So should you.
Elonie
Came here because of the Groupon deal, otherwise probably too expensive. This is the place to go if you like chocolate ice cream as there are many varieties of chocolate ice creams. If you like sorbet, then there is only 1, the berry sorbet. The cone is tasty, but it costs more than the cup.
Food Coma Survivor
Slightly pricy, but I can never stay away from chocolate fudge brownie. I always get it in the cone, it's crunchy and perfect. The staff were really efficient, and the flavours available were endless.

Ben and Jerry is Still and Always the best Icecream I have had in Melbourne city so far. Chunky Monkey with bits of Choclate is always my Favourite!!
Hungry Jeweller
You can never go wrong with Ben and jerry's ice cream. This shop literally opens out to the street so there is no seating. Ice cream selection is fantastic. Enthusiastic staff and efficient service
World Eats Food
I love Ben & Jerrys! The variety of flavours is really creative and awesome. Beware, if you get a waffle cone with sprinkles and chocolate flavoured ice cream, this is sugar overload!! Flavours are great but way too overpriced for ice cream!! It's much more value in America.
Dikembe Mutombo
What made my experience so great was the professionalism of the staff. They patiently take you through the flavours. It's pretty much like a journey of discovering your favourite flavours.<br/><br/>I truly enjoy my ice cream experience. It tastes great and such a fine compliment to finish off my dinner or to wind down after a hard day at work. <br/><br/>Thanks Ben & Jerry!
Fiona
We never knew this place existed!! It was really busy but despite the crowds we wanted to check out the flavours (we usually buy tubs from 7 Eleven which only have a few at a time). We were greeted by a big smile from Abdul and had his undivided attention the whole time. He even went out of his way to let us try the flavours and in the end we both got two scoops each. Very impressed by the service and ice cream, thank you! This will definitely be our go-to ice cream place now
Kristy Donovan
Its a convenient location ice-cream shop that's very close to Flinders street station. I had their maple belgium waffle with coffee & dark chocolate flavour. The combinations was amazing and not too sweet, perfect for spoiling myself and my bf! Next time will definitely try the sorbet!
Andro
HALF BAKED SHAKE IS THE BOMB! <br/>Tried the first time of my life.. I believe this is the best shakes I ever had......<br/>Staff are also very friendly and offered to try several flavours...<br/>Next time will definitely try their brownie sundae... looks delicious too.........
Jel_J_Chriee
Their ice cream is just too sweet for me... but nice to hav it ! Creamy and milky for cookie and cream favour .. nailed it ! <br/> Shhhhhhhhh
MelbourneMiss
What's not to love about Ben & Jerry's - the icecream is consistently excellent. I just wish this store had more flavours that didn't involve chocolate - as I'm not a huge fan of chocolate icecream, there weren't many flavours that grabbed my attention. As we had an entertainment book deal, we each had the double-scoop in a choc-dipped waffle cone. The cone itself was great but the chocolate they use to dip it in reminded me of confectioners cooking chocolate - not a fan. The serve is enormous (too big really) so I guess if you are paying $9 you feel you are getting your money's worth. There isn't any seating here but fed square is a short walk away so you can sit and enjoy.
Gee
Wow - it's fairly intense! So sugary and filling after a big meal. Had the sundae with cookies and really can't complain. The young fella with the mustache working there also deserves a shoutout for his impeccable customer service!

Ahh..Ben & Jerry's, very rarely disappoints. I got my usual cookies and cream but before that I tried several other flavours that they had on offer. Service was friendly and quick. They really encourage you to try before you buy. It was also good that they had several staff members despite the small shop. Thumbs up !
Phil
I asked for the fudge sundae but the girl behind the counter told me I could have a brownie sundae for only 50c more. I wish I hadn't..I'd expected a few pieces of brownie but what I got was a brownie shoved into a container with hardly any of the ice cream I'd asked for, and more brownie crammed on top. It was quite disappointing and the brownie was so sickly sweet that I didn't end up finishing it. I wouldn't recommend.

There is a new Ben and Jerry's in the city and I really liked it. Ben and Jerry's is a US ice cream brand which has been in Australia for many years. Students from Asian countries such as China might not have had it so they don't know that they have about 20-30 different flavours. Their tubs are a little bit exy but the taste is mind blowing.
Jiro
I love ben n jerry's ice cream! All chocolates flavour is very flavoursome! It tastes very rich, In my opinion is the yummiest ice cream and definitely my favourite amongst all of the ice cream brand!
MF
This branch is opened at a very convenient location close to the flinder's street station. They were very kind to have a free ice cream give out day for one day and I had tried a few tastes of them. Plenty of choices to chose from and all of them were quite nice. Service was super efficient and nice.
Ta.be.tabi
Most of the Ben & Jerry’s flavours were dessert based like cookies, brownies, fudge, caramel etc. I picked a random chocolate flavour and strawberry cheesecake to break it up a bit, and chose a chocolate dipped cone because I succumbed to the novelty. I find it actually distracted from the ice cream itself. Chocolate flavours were quite ordinary, strawberry cheesecake had some tartness to it. I could’ve bought a proper tub with a few extra dollars, there was some cookie dough flavour I liked. The staff were highly engaging and encouarged passerbys to sample. Especially Abdul who really wanted to be in the photo with my ice cream so I had to oblige. #abdulflinders
