J’s Ice Cream Parlor in Redding

After spending the afternoon kayaking around the Whiskeytown Lake, we were desperate for a refreshing treat. With it being our first time in Redding, we turned to Yelp to help guide us to the best ice cream shop in town, and that was J’s Ice Cream Parlor.

When we first arrived at the ice cream shop, it was located in the middle of a strip mall next to a laundromat. There were a lot of people hanging out in front of the restaurant waiting for their laundry and licking their ice cream cones.

We walked into the small restaurant and was immediately greeted by a very friendly employee. She allowed our kids to sample the different ice cream before making their final delicious decision.

Excited to find out what all the hype is around Gunther’s Ice Cream, the minute the ice cream and my taste buds met it was pure bliss. It was fresh, creamy, delicious, and quite possibly some of the best ice cream I have ever sunk my taste buds into.

Me and my kids shared all our favorite memories from the day in Redding while savoring every bite of our ice cream. It was the perfect way to end our day exploring the beautiful town of Redding.

J’s Ice Cream Parlor is located at 2919 Churn Creek Road in Redding.
