> Brought this cake for my husband's birthday, and the staff were very lovely, it was more of a blind buy but everyone really enjoyed it. They had two different flavors of icecream in the cake. It lasted about an 45 minutes outside before it started to melt so that was nice and was only a few pieces left, I brought the medium size cake. Definitely recommended these icecream cakes., aasyah soloman, 6 months ago
> Good ice cream, good staff and very attentive ones. As a Muslim, we asked for halal options and they lift up every box of ice cream and checked for the halal certification. And yes, this shop sells halal certified ice cream. You can ask at the counter and they will show you the box with the halal logo by IFANCA. Will definitely come again if I ever come to Christchurch again in the future., Mohd Shahrulnizam Abd Hamid, a month ago
> I recently visited Ben & Jerry’s Riverside and had a really nice experience overall. The location itself is great—right by the water, which makes it a relaxing spot to sit and enjoy a treat. The staff were friendly and efficient, even though it was a bit busy when I went. There was a good variety of flavours available, so it took me a while to decide what to get. Most importantly, the ice cream was really good—rich, creamy, and full of flavour. You can tell it’s high quality, and the portion size was satisfying too. Overall, it’s a great place to stop if you’re nearby and craving something, Kehan Patel, 2 months ago
