Sarah Jean’s Ice Cream

Visited: 12/​19/​2015
Sporadically visited this place while exploring Marietta Square and have fallen in love! PISTACHIO ICE CREAM! The best so far in GA! Thank you so much for making this flavor amazing! It is a personal favorite flavor and will definitely come back again just for this flavor: D Next time, I’ll call ahead to make sure you have it :) From what we were told when we last visited on 12/​19, we got pretty lucky that you guys happen to have it that day: D
And, love, love, love the cute train! Completely made feel the holiday spirit :)
I’d also like to give a huge kudos to your employees for being sweet and truly enjoying working there! You can tell when someone enjoys working and when someone doesn’t. So, thank you all for such a wonderful experience. I’m certainly planning on coming back again!

DUDE, YOU REALLY NEED TO MOVE ON!
This is a cute little ice cream shop. It reminds me of the ice cream store that my kids loved when they were children. It had their favorite bubble gum ice cream on the menu and that is hard to find. This shop was really made with kids in mind as indicated by the large train painted on the wall and the actually train that travels along a track above the main dinning/​serving area. It has a very cute and casual vibe.
We actually stopped here when my husband noticed that they have Italian ice available. He grew up with these treats as a young child and has been chasing that old familiar taste since we have lived in Georgia. It is not about the taste but the process of how the ice is shaved which was probably by some little Italian guy who did it by hand. Technology has taken over and they just don’t prepare the ice in this way anymore. Yes, he needs to move on but in the mean time I indulge him. So, here we go.
Obviously, it was not what he was looking for but he ate it anyway. I don’t understand this treat at all. It is described as an «ice» but I just tasted this overly sweet, lemony concoction that actually had a creamy texture. It was gross but what do I know. I grew up in the South and I am totally unfamiliar with this particular treat. However, I do know what I like and this isn’t it.
This little shop is the perfect stop after lunch or when just needing something to cool off. It’s placement on the square is perfect and they also have cookies, frozen yogurt, popcorn and beverages so if you need a quick snack, pop in!
Edit 10÷23÷15 This review may look familiar because it was accidentally posted under the wrong business. My bad. Thanks to a very astute Unilocaler, I was notified of the error and removed it to its rightful place.

The vanilla frozen yogurt was absolutely terrible. The chocolate was decent, but not good enough to make this place worth the money.

Well I’m just going to say that this is that place where everything tastes homemade, they use real flavors and not those strange carcinogens. And their ice cream is filling, even if you get only 2 scoops! Great place for ice cream

Was really craving some good ice cream and this place got great reviews. I could not have been more disappointed! We ordered salted caramel candy, and there was no chunks of anything in it, and it tasted like vanilla. My fiancé ordered cookies and cream, and it just tasted like vanilla! Very nice staff, but nothing special at all about the ice cream!

Favorite ice cream in Marietta. I made the mistake of patronizing the other ice cream shop in the square, and I haven’t been back or anywhere else in town since I’ve been going to Sarah Jean’s. There’s a wide variety of ice cream, gelato, and sorbet with rotating and seasonal flavors, and the prices are very reasonable for such a high quality treat. Love this place!

We go out of our way to go here instead of the other popular ice cream place just across the square after a bad experience. It is adorable and a true mom and pop shop. Mostly Classic flavors, delicious waffle cones. During the summer it’s run by mostly teens but I suppose that’s how it’s supposed to be!

The feeling that the customer is always right does not live here. My wife ordered something and received a different item. Staff argued that was what she ordered. Better to leave on counter than cause a scene with a 17 year old staff.

I love Sarah Jean’s! We are new to the area and this little place is already a favorite! Lots of variety for ice cream, sugar free options, and a nice staff. It’s in a great little area that is safe and pleasant with a good bit of outdoor seating as well.

A $ 4 banana split, in the vintage Marietta Square, sweetly shaped the afternoon. Two luscious scoops of ice cream, which were dressed with whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry, amongst two halves of a banana trounced the early summer Georgian heat. The candied confection tasted dainty and ample.

Love this spot. Service is personal. Ice cream and other options (gelato, yogurt, etc) are always varied and taste great. You can also pop in for some fresh popcorn or coffee drinks — big plus.

I came BC I had a scoutmob and wanted something sweet. I love this place already. Located in the heart of Marietta square, this place is great :). Lots of patrons came in and were greeted with a smile from the people behind the counter. I was highly impressed at the customer service. He was informative yet not pushy, he helped me pick out the perfect banana split and it was delicious! I can’t wait to go back! I liked the ice cream and there were many flavors. Great place

This is a terrific little ice cream shop!
We went in here with friends after dinner (up the block at The Butcher The Baker) and had really, really, really good ice cream. Everybody got somethings different — a shake here, a cone there, simple flavors and varieties with a bunch of stuff in it, and we were each quite happy with our choice.
There was limited sharing.
It’s right on Marietta Square so you can people watch from the limited seating indoors, which is what we did. They have a few tables out front, too.
Prices were very reasonable. 7 of us was a little over $ 20 including tax.
I’ll be back.

Delightful little shop!
My husband and I stopped at Sarah Jean’s on a date night after dinner around Marietta Square. What a cute little shop! They had a little model train driving around on its suspended track near the ceiling, and the flavors of ice cream written on a chalk board.
The ice cream was good. The hubby and I kept it simple by ordering rum raisin and mint chocolate chip. It was definitely good, but not super memorable. This is only because I have had some spectacularly memorable ice cream in my day. I’m a big fan of ice cream in general.
I’m glad there is an ice cream shop on Marietta Square that stays open late. Sarah Jean’s is a great place to come for dessert before a stroll around the aquare.

Fun little mom and pop ice cream shop on the Square in Marietta. Good prices, good ice cream, good variety and good music. Like how the menu chalk board is split into categories — fruity, basic, nutty, chocolate, speciality, frozen yogurt, Italian ice, and sugar free. They also have gelato and sorbets. Have a cute train that runs on a suspended track and a great train wall mural. A fun stop with lots of great 60s and 70s music including Motown classics.

The best ice cream in the area. This is one of few mom and pop owned ice cream places in the area and the ice cream is the best. The only thing that would bump it to 5 stars is if it was closer to my house and slightly bigger. It is very crowded in there.

Cute ice cream shop off lovely Marietta Square. Service was friendly although a bit slow preparing my sundae, and the choo choo train encircling the ceiling is adorable.
Current Scoutmob discount (50% with app) makes visiting Sarah Jean’s a real value; sundae was dirt cheap at just over $ 2. Very fudgy, served in a tall, old-​fashioned glass – such a treat. Although good, I wouldn’t order the pistachio flavor again, but my little brother couldn’t eat it fast enough. I noticed they also have seasonal ice cream flavors, and their giant banana splits looked mighty tempting.

Great ice cream. I normally get a banana split mini for 4 bucks. Two scoops of any flavor. My daughter likes the cookies and cream kids scoop. The owner is a really nice guy. Plus there is a awesome train inside

My kid loved the choo choo train that goes around the shop. He’s a big fan of Thomas the Train. I shared a banana split with him using a scoutmob app which saved me 50%. Normally $ 6, it only cost me $ 3 on this occasion. And for that price, it was a steal of a deal. You get to choose three flavors. We got the strawberry, black cherry, and butter pecan. They all tasted great. The black cherry had chunks of cherry in it which I loved. All of the toppings and flavors came together very nicely, and it was a great treat on a nice warm sunny day.

Things I love: The scout mob discount (50%) and the train on the ceiling that entertained my toddler while we were waiting for ice cream
Things I did not love: Why are we waiting for ice cream? Even after ordering it was a good 5 minutes before they could get our ice cream together. I never thought it would take THAT long to make an ice cream sundae. We had the sundae and it was just not that good. The ice cream tastes like it came from the grocery store (which, if we wanted grocery store ice cream, we would have just bought it from the grocery store). I’m a fan of places that have homemade ice cream and I just don’t think this place does. Oh well, now I know!
