Gelato is deli, i tried cocunut & vanilla very nice combo. Price is pretty cheap for 2 scoops and its worth it. No parking, no toilets,no sit in arrangements just take away only. No highchairs for children. Good ice cream . You get vegan options

There was a queue prior to entering the shop making it evident how busy and how popular the shop is. Nevertheless the queue was fast moving, the service was prompt and the ice cream was undoubtedly great! I had Coconut Ube and Honeycomb flavour.

We visited this lovely Gelato shop recently! He let us try different flavours which is very sweet of him. All the flavours are surprisingly taste good however I think mine is chocochip Stracciatella and I loved it! They create some really nice gelato flavours which my friends really liked it. If you’re a a Gelato lover, this place is great. :)

Absolutely iconic gelato place in all of Cambridge, and everyone knows it! Love the daily change of flavours, and the option to “queue skip” where there’s QR codes around, to get your order straight out from the window, if you choose to do that, or just go in person to order your gelato to be greeted by wonderful staff. Definitely recommend coming to try out some gelato!

I opted for cherry and chocolate scoops, and the portions were very generous! We sat down to enjoy at a little table, and it was easily the best ice cream I’ve had in a long time. 10/10 recommend.

Beautiful little gem in the heart of Cambridge. I came here for the first time just before Christmas and so I had the dark hot chocolate which was the perfect treat and just delicious - thank you for the recommendation! I had a tub of the fig and manuka honey gelato and it was probably the best gelato I have ever had. Will definitely be coming back here on my next visit.

I may be a bit biased here as I attribute Jack's Gelato to many happy and good things -- but hey, that's a sign of a good establishment right?! I love the variety of flavours here and make sure to order the 'secret flavours' they have and be surprised by how good they are. The lines can be crazy long so best to come with a friend and chat the long line away, or use the QR code by the service window for a queue jump (you'll have to miss trying flavours inside tho!). Go ahead, try Jack's cos let's be real -- your trip to Cambridge is never complete without it.

I went on a Monday afternoon and it was fairly busy. I had a scoop of coconut and ube and it was delicious. You can’t really find this flavour anywhere else so I’d recommend it. However, I don’t think it’s as amazing as other comments were saying.

You must eat GELATO when you come to Cambridge🤤 You can ask the store staff to let you try the flavors you are interested in. One of the most popular ones is COCONUT UBE (Purple) Vegan🌱, this one is really good👍The coconut flavor is very rich, WHISKY (White) does not perform as well in comparison Excellent, at least don't think it's worth the extra £3 But both are so dense that they can be drawn! After everyone goes to Eagle Bar to have a cup of DNA BEER, you can come and taste it😎

The mint stracciatella was all sold out, so I ordered plain vanilla. Oddly, it tasted salty. Not much vanilla flavor, either. Only ate a few bites before tossing it. There are lines out the door, though.

Terrible customer service. There was only person working here. However, he was working at such a snails pace that literally everyone in the cue had to wait almost an hour, when really it should not even take that long to literally serve scoops of ice cream to people. The ice cream here is good quality at-least, but it's not worth getting if the customer service here is lousy. I won't be coming back here for a while.

Mediocre texture compensated by adventurous combinations… That’s how you compete with the more traditional gelatos next doors and become a “must-go” hot spot in Cambridge. Overpriced and touristy as it is, I might still have to invite visitors to try one scoop or half here and move on to the real gelato places. Again, interesting tastes but lacks the richness of proper gelato and the flavoring can be quite artificial. 4: Both sea salt dark chocolate and damson cherry are rather flavorless today. 3rd try: ube coconut & dark chocolate gochujang —- Roast peanut butter was sold out. I was courageous enough to get the maple bacon (after trying). Savory ice cream works! Bacon flavor melted in my mouth, and then the maple came up. Interesting. —— Salted Oreo isn’t really salty. More like ordinary cookie and cream. The honey comb is surprisingly nice. I usually go for more intense dark chocolate or coffee flavors, but this one is actually good enough for me to go for white ones. Much much better than vanilla (which I don’t like). Milky with crispy sweet crystals. Heard miso is also tasty. I’ll be more adventurous next time.

3 triple scoops of ice cream for breakfast 4 days running, and once we had some in the afternoon as well! I usually stick to vanilla because so many flavours are too sweet, but Jack's flavours are all fantastic. Dark chocolate and sea salt sorbet, and tahini, were both spectacular, would have preferred my coconut without ripple, but all the flavours were pretty damned good.
