The first Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams Scoop Shop in our area opened in October, 2017, at 17th and U St. NW. I was at the opening, but for some inexplicable reason neglected to post about the event. Now, I have an opportunity to atone for my negligence by reporting on some great news: there will be two (two!) scoop shops opening on the same day next week!
One will be in Bethesda, the other in Alexandria. Fans are invited to celebrate the Bethesda scoop shop grand opening on Thursday, December 19 from 7-11 p.m. at 4918 Elm St., Bethesda, with free ice cream for all and swag for the first 50 in line.
The Old Town Alexandria scoop shop grand opening is on the same day from 7-11 p.m. at 102 S Patrick St., Alexandria, VA, 22314. Free ice cream for all and swag for the first 50 in line, plus, Jeni herself will be there.
While we wait for those, here are some pictures of the opening of the DC shop.
