“ Really tasty hand made ice creams with great presentation! ”
“ Vegan ice cream with creative flavors (home made). Nice service and quality impression. ”
“ Look, it is expensive. But I think it's worth it. Any review saying the ice cream was bad, is from a crazy person. Maybe mad about the price, sure. But calling this bad is nuts. And we got here right as they were closing the door and they served us anyway, so hooray service. ”
“ We first went to another gelateria in Lindau. We were so disappointed we searched for another and found Jean & Jacques. First impressions: the ice is stored in round ice buckets, which is often a good sign (because the temperature can be individually regulated). The staff were very friendly, not afraid to smile or give advice. Also, you can buy your ice and sit at one of the fabulous small tables on the see front promenade. Wow. We tried: rhubarb and lemon/mint. Both so good, we stayed for more: raspberry/rosemary and the incredibly rich-tasting Swiss Caramel. Really fantastic ice cream, nearly on a par with San Crispino in Rome. 1.80€ per scoop at the time of writing is a price well worth paying. Enjoy ”
