Ice Cream Jubilee

I had a wonderful experience visiting the ice cream shop today. I went in on an extremely hot day with my children and was not expecting much customer care. Despite my low expectations, the staff were engaging, patient and very friendly in helping my family and I choose flavors. I personally asked for the staffs names because I want the management and them to know that I appreciate them going over and beyond to provide customer service. Daisha, Kayla and Matt you all deserve a round of applause.

On a trip from DC and came to this ice cream shop near my hotel. Aisha was my ice cream server and she was working all by herself for the holiday weekend! She’s very sweet and attentive and was very patient with the family party that arrived with me. Aisha was the cherry topper to my ice cream and added to my positive experience in DC. If you’re gonna go to Jubilee, go to this one for great service and a nice ambience by the waters!

I was really disappointed in this location. The only vegan option was a sorbet, and the server wasn't very friendly when I asked about options. It's been a while since I went to the T street location, where there was always a few different vegan options. So I'm not sure if this was the usual at the Yards location. That said, I do appreciate that there's a large patio that's dog friendly, and there's also a lot of shade from the sun. The non vegans I was with loved their ice cream!

Flavors galore! With huge, homemade tubs, you will find something that suits your taste. This venue is perfectly situated along the water in a beautiful section of the city. I had tried a berry with graham cracker ice cream that was a little weak in flavor. The only reason for 4 stars is that when I was eating my delicious cookie and ice cream, I found myself crunching on froze ice crystals. It took away from enjoying the cream. I also ordered mint chocolate chip but received chocolate chip - if it wasn't a mix up, then the mint was exceptionally weak. Even so, I would definitely drop in again to enjoy the ice cream!

Ice Cream Jubilee just released five new fall flavors. They are Pumpkin Honeycomb, Maple Rye Pecan, Apple Butter Oatmeal Cookie, Cardamom Black Pepper and the Apple Cider Sorbet. I was digging the Apple Cider Sorbet which is spiced with classic apple cider, cinnamon and other earthy spices. I can’t wait to sit down by a fire pit and nosh on the whole pint.
