JP Licks Homemade Ice Cream Description:
Although the local JP Licks ice cream mini-chain originated in Jamaica Plain (thus the "JP"), they have had several locations here. The latest and largest offers a lot of exposed brick, and both indoor and outdoor seats. In addition to cones, smoothies, and other fountain offerings, the shop sells ice cream cakes, as well as pints and quarts for takeout.
In the mornings, coffee and baked goods are popular.
Forget the dreary winters: collectively, Bostonians are among the nation's foremost consumers of ice cream---a fact of which the flagship of this local chain may be a cause as well as a reflection. With its goofy cow-themed décor, it attracts camp-loving scenesters as well as kids; with its seasonal selection of premium ice cream and frozen yogurt flavors, it attracts coneheads of all types. Try cucumber, Creamsicle, and even wasabi in summer; in cooler months, Wild Turkey and eggnog prevail.
