Reviews for Vanilla Jill's Scoops & Soups in Eugene, OR
I have bought their bone broth for the last time. I paid $9 for a container, and both times it has been nothing but ice water... when I went to use it. This is two times over the last two years (and I have never had real beef bone broth from them exceptwhen a friend bought fresh bone broth for me about 4 years ago) The last time I went back, about a year ago, i complained thebone broth was only water ( I bought it frozen to store in the freezer and use to make soup/stew) and they blamed it on theearlier owner and gave me a comp container, which I just opened to make soup and it was nothing but water.Totally clear exceptfor a bit of fat floating on top. Their frozen soup is OK, but NEVER buy their bone broth to make your own soup. I am nevergoing back for anything. Read more
They were friendly, welcoming and have wonderful customer service. The young lady who helped us had happy, ready answers for our... food allergy questions. She was patient as the children decided what they wanted (because they accommodated our allergies withseemingly no effort. Yay!). There was a clean stocked restroom available (i assume just for staff and customers). It was awonderful experience! Thank you guys for creating a wonderful experience our family can participate in.

Ice cream had ice crystals... maybe too old or improperly kept? Cones were too well done. Burnt taste. P
Always a tasty experience. It's nice to see not all of the old whit has been gentrified out yet. Now to bring back tiny tavern... and pappa souls. Read more
Small ice cream selection that I personally didn't like the taste of. On top of that, why sell soup? Ice cream and soup? They... should drop the latter and focus on doing the former better. Read more
Good ice cream, a wide variety of flavor options, and a swanky place to enjoy your ice cream outside. I wouldn't go so far as... to say that it was particularly *great* ice cream ? though my strawberry, all-natural ice cream was tasty, it really needed alot more strawberry to it ? like large strawberry chunks, some strawberry jam swirled in there, anything to give it a lot morestrawberry appeal. My kids and wife had other flavors, and after trying theirs I came to the same conclusion ? good ice cream,but not great. If they could boost up the flavor more (with the real ingredients that they use), I think we'd be ontosomething. And after talking with a few locals, they seemed to think the same ? the consensus was give us more flavor. Read more
This is my favorite ice cream stop. It also makes for part of a great summer date night - grab a cone and walk to the river.... They have plenty of safe options for the vegan and gluten free. Read more
Uhm....delicious! As a celiac, I cannot risk cross contamination at ice cream shops from the scoops. It was such a treat to find... a shop I could actually get a milkshake at! It's literally been years since I've had one. The cultured lemon ice cream isdivine! Just sweet enough, and just enough lemon. The veggie soup (another luxury hard for me to find) was alsodelicious! Friendly staff (I missed his name) and patient with my excitement. Read more
