J.P. LICKS is an ice cream maker, a coffee roaster, an institution, a winner of over 300 "Best" awards, a fair employer, a destination, a hip joint, a good neighbor, a Boston business, owned and operated by its founder, since 1981.

"The recipes for our homemade ice cream and yogurt use simple ingredients, ingredients you could find in your home kitchen from Whole Foods.

Whats distinctive is that the flavors are all intense . . . close your eyes and taste, you'll always know what flavor you're tasting, from the esoteric (tomato basil flavor) to every kids delight (Cake Batter Oreo) we create flavors for all tastes." - Vince Petryk, founder and owner of J.P. Licks
