When I look for an ice cream shop, I look for a place with nice staff, good customer service, and most importantly, good ice cream. Luckily, I have one place in mind that checks all of those boxes: Jupiter’s Ice Cream.

Jupiter’s is located in the Mount Washington Mill Business Center, just East of Mount Washington itself. While it isn’t as local as Towson, it still is relatively close only being 5 miles away from there.

So why Jupiter’s?

In addition to the short commute to Jupiter’s, they also have a diverse range of ice cream and milkshakes to satisfy your sweet tooth. As well as a friendly team who are willing to help you decide on a flavor, they really are a perfect end to any lunch, sporting event, or otherwise.

Flavors

I’d recommend their chocolate brownie ice cream. While the sweetness might not be for everyone, the little bits of brownie mixed into the chocolate tastes amazing. And might I add they have really good vanilla? Some might say it’s the least exciting flavor, but sometimes there’s nothing wrong with a scoop of vanilla ice cream after lunch.

Will I have to sell my family to buy their ice cream?

Yes. Just kidding! No, and hopefully you won’t! Despite their menu, they have relatively low prices.

Quick note from the writer: I just want to clear something up. Their sizing can be a little confusing if you aren’t prepared as I was when I went in my first time. A kid’s size on a cone is one scoop, while a single cone is two. Kinda confusing, right? Besides that, they are pretty good!
