While there are JP Licks Ice Cream stores all over Boston, the one in Jamaica Plain is the first (hence the “JP” in JP Licks). If great ice cream isn’t enough incentive, the Centre Street JP Licks also features the enormous fiber glass cow head on the outside and the life size cow statue inside are great fun. Plus, they have a chalkboard nook
and chalk for kids to entertain themselves and work out the sugar rush.
