"A great wee place in Dundee, in a great location with lovely, friendly staff. A great variety of ice cream, and they are knowledgeable about the ingredients; they also have great coffee. It was very clean and reasonably priced. As it was a day trip, it might be a while before I return, but I would most certainly do so at the next opportunity."

"Long lines and high prices but super tasty ice cream, so glad they brought Jannetta’s to Dundee! Btw the Jannetta’s Hot Chocolate is thick strong melted down chocolate, I had to guzzle down about 2 liters of water after"
