Wonderful magical experience
Tasty and big cones but super expensive
We arrived at the Ben & Jerry’s shack at 7:59 pm, just before closing, and asked for one ice cream. The person working had just served two customers right before us, but when it was our turn, she told us they were closed. There was no one else around or waiting—just us—and we weren’t asking for anything complicated. We completely understand wanting to close on time, but it was still within posted hours, and turning away one last customer felt unnecessary. We usually love Ben & Jerry’s, but this experience was a bit disappointing.
Great ice cream
The place is overly crowded and very chaotic. They need to be more organized and limit the amount of people being let in at one time. We paid almost $70 to admit two and were in and out in 15 minutes. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!
WAY to overcrowded, they definitely need to limit the amount of people in at one time. It was to a point, where people where shoulder to Shoulder, and couldn’t move or barely get close enough to see the aquariums. It is probably okay if you go during the week, but weekends are a true nightmare.
This ice cream spot is a busy spot on the warf to grab ice cream and water. I order strawberry ice cream in a cup with jimmies. The service was mistep. They gave me a strawberry ice cream in a waffle cone. The strawberry ice cream was cold, refreshing, and rich. It was delicious except for the cone. I really wish the water was cold. Warm water on a hot day was gross.

A small ice cream cart in front of the aquarium. Decent two scoops for the small cup. Not overly sweet and very creamy.
Great icecream, friendly staff!
Showed up at 7:15pm and they were closed. Online says they close at 8pm.

The ice cream is very good
Great icecream.
Great service, great quality ice cream and a great location to hang out and get an ice cream cone!
Ice cream was tasty, but the set up was off! The place was not clean.
If you want some favorite Ben & Jerry flavors after a 2 hour boat ride, this is your place. It's right in front of the Boston Aquarium. Better deal if you get the 3 scoop version so you can pick 3 flavors and share. Great ice cream in Boston!
