    Dessert for the soul

    Great service, absolutely amazing warm waffle cone made to order at a very reasonable price. Free samples of the 20+ homemade flavors. Would recommend to anyone with a sweet tooth and in the area.

    Warm waffle cones and a huge selection of ice cream... Need I say more?!

    Freshly made warm waffle cones and a great selection of ice cream. YUM! And such a funny name for a ice cream joint. :) It's a must try!

    Best Ice Cream Parlor around

    This place is amazing. So many different flavors to choose from. They also serve shaved ice and sundaes. The best part had to be the freshly made waffle cones. You can either get a normal cone or get a waffle cone in a cup. They...More

    Wonderful fresh made waffle cones

    The ice cream selection is good and was really good. However the best part was the fresh made waffle cone prepared just before putting the ice cream in it.

    WCU visit

    We have visited Jack the dipper all 3 times we have visited WCU. Our daughter loves it. Great family ice cream shop. The decor could use some TLC though. But ice cream is delicious and a wide variety of flavors.

    Absolutely the DIRTIEST place to eat!

    Nothing here was clean: door, windows, tables, floor, bathroom, overflowing trash cans. Asked that our table be wiped off - server came over, looked and returned to serving ice cream with no comment! No health score posted either. How can they be so blatantly dirty!?

    The Best!

    This is one of the best places to go for ice cream and homemade waffle cones. The atmosphere is so friendly and it’s welcoming to experience. I love all the varieties of ice cream, sorbet and flavored cones. This place is the best!
