Devon House Ice Cream Jamaica – The Best Ice Cream in the World
Jamaicans love the local Devon House ice cream. It is a source of national pride. To us, there is no better ice cream in the world.
And the rest of the world agrees.
Jamaica’s Devon House Ice Cream is a leading ice cream of the world!
On the Daily Meal’s List the World’s Best Ice Cream Parlors for 2017, Devon House Ice Cream Jamaica is #34 out of 35.
The results were tallied based on overall popularity, freshness of ingredients, number of flavors and uniqueness (originality) as well as customer reviews of service and experience.
Being on the list is not unexpected considering that Devon House Ice Cream Jamaica made National Geographic’s Top 10 list in 2011.
Devon House is considered the best ice cream in Jamaica. In our very biased opinion, it is on par with top ice cream brands such as Ben & Jerry’s, Häagen-Dazs, Breyers, Blue Bell and Baskin-Robbins.
The original Devon House Ice Cream Parlor is on the grounds of Devon House in Kingston, home of Jamaica’s first black millionaire. If you are in Kingston, it is worth a visit. There is something special about eating Devon House ice cream and walking about the property’s gorgeous grounds. It is almost like a Sunday afternoon ritual for some locals.
The factory is in Kingston as is the flagship ice cream parlor but there are branches in many of the large cities or towns.
The closest branch to us is in Salem, about 10-15 minutes east of the villa.
