Columbus, OH, and Dublin, OH are known for their amazing restaurants, shops, and cafes, and there are plenty of ice cream parlors that live up to the hype, as well. When the summer hits you’ll want to try out every one of these cities’ best shops for frozen treats, so we’ve made this convenient list so that you can find the best places right away.
1. Jeni’s
Jeni’s has locations all over town, including one location in Dublin. The frozen desserts here are famous all over town for their delicious and creative combinations of flavors, creamy texture, and fresh ingredients. Anyone with allergies or other dietary restrictions will be impressed by the abundance of vegan, dairy-free, and nut-free options which are clearly and easily marked.
2. Graeter’s
Graeter’s is another local chain with locations in both Dublin and Columbus. They have lots of fun desserts, and we really recommend trying one of their sundaes – they often have seasonal flavors and you will want to keep coming back to try them all! All of the flavors are delicious, but those that include chocolate chunks are a special treat as the chunks are huge and melt in your mouth for a decadent dessert experience.
3. Dell’s
Dell’s is located on the outskirts of Dublin and is definitely worth a visit. The shop looks like an old farmhouse and it has a homey and relaxed atmosphere to match. They serve lots of unique flavors, and they’re all homemade right in-store so you can be sure that you’re getting top quality. We recommend trying the blueberry cheesecake, unicorn, or cookie dough flavors, or try one of their amazing milkshakes if you’re looking for something a little different.
4. Simply Rolled
This Thai-inspired shop uses its own unique recipe to create delicious rolled frozen treats that are unlike anything you’ve tried before. You can customize your treats to have whichever flavors you like, or pick one of their pre-made options if you’re not sure what to get. The staff is very friendly and professional and will explain the process to you if you’re not sure how it works.
5. Dolce Vida
This place is known for its wide variety of unique menu options, including lots of Mexican-style desserts. Their banana splits are to die for and we also really recommend trying their churros with your frozen treats – the combination of tastes is phenomenal. The staff is super kind and happy to talk about the different menu options, so don’t be shy to ask questions if you’re not sure what to get!
With all of these great places to visit and decadent desserts to try, we’re sure that you’ll have a full schedule this summer in Dublin and Columbus. Start making plans today to visit one – or all! – of these scrumptious ice creameries for a delightful treat! Who knows – you may find a new favorite!
