Jackson's Ice Cream Float

This ice cream stand was almost a daily treat for us during our week's stay in Victoria. It's nice having a choice of both soft serve and hard ice cream. The service was efficient, and the setting on a pier at Fisherman's Wharf is hard to beat.

I really enjoyed their hot fudge sundae, but most days we opted for the "Danny", a perfect mix of soft serve in the waffle cone, and a scoop of hard on top. My favorite rendition of this options was twist soft serve (chocolate & vanilla) in the cone, and then a scoop of Moose Tracks on top.

Good stuff!

This was possibly the best ice cream I've ever had! I spent a day in Victoria when our cruise ship ported here and was looking for a place to get some ice cream. The wharf has a great selection of different food but the line for ice cream was the longest.

In the floating shop, they have ice cream, shakes, floats and more. All of the workers are very kind and super generous with their servings.

You can take your ice cream and walk around the wharf and see lots of sea creatures in the water below!

No matter how cold it is, how can you resist a scoop of ice cream on a waffle cone?! A cute mainstay business for the touristy wharf. Service by the line young person was friendly though she did not wash her hands between handling cash.

Eat more ice cream!

Cute little ice cream stand. Nice assortment of flavors. I got a kid-sized scoop of chocolate peanut butter. Wow, that is a generous sized scoop (3 oz, but seemed a lot bigger). The ice cream was tasty as well. Nice afternoon treat.

Warm day, great weather, good company, delicious lunch. Ice cream was definitely called for.

We had met with friends that we used to work with in Livermore who now live in Washington State. By coincidence, they were getting ready to begin a cruise as we were nearing the end of ours and we both ended up in Victoria at the same time.

They both ordered Small Vanilla Soft Serves. My partner got Vanilla in a cup along with a can of Root Beer. I got The Danny, a waffle cone with soft serve on the bottom topped by a large scoop of Espresso Chip Ice Cream. I'm wondering if having the hard ice cream on bottom and the Soft Serve on top might be better or if the combo just doesn't belong together. By the time I got done with the hard ice cream, the soft serve was melting and leaking all over.

Service was great. The young lady who served me had crazy long fingernails and was still efficient. The lines moved quickly. Well done Jackson's! I apologize for forgetting to take pictures.

Quick and friendly service. Waffle cone was solid and sea salted caramel was just what I need on this warm summer day. Definitely stop by if you are in Fisherman's Wharf and need something cool and tasty.

Unbelievably friendly folks behind the counter, and generous scoops! We will DEFINITELY return...again and again!

Luckily we ran from the cruise port to Fisherman's Wharf. Jackson's was just closing. Soft serve machines were already shut down for the night. Staff was friendly and the ice cream delish! Husband had mint chocolate chip and I had chocolate peanut butter and maple walnut. After a week on a cruise ship with so-so ice cream, it was nice to have some that was higher caliber.

My husband and I were at the Fisherman's Wharf and got icecream from this place. I wanted to have 2 different flavors in 1 scoop and they were kind enough to do that for us. They had many flavors and I chose coconut and mango flavors on a cone and they both were delicious.
Very nice location and reasonable prices - would definitely recommend this place.

An example of a perfect day may include a stroll on Victoria's Wharf while indulging in an Instagram-worthy heap of ice cream in your hand. I had the fortune of trying their salted caramel, and I savored every bite.

Neither the caramel nor salt overpowered, and they danced perfectly together like the winners of Dancing with the Stars last season. (I don't who won, and have seen one episode ever, but I just tried to find a witty example to put here.)

This experience only cost $4.25, for a single scoop in a waffle cone.

Other tidbits:
-Super friendly people working there.
-Since it resides on the Wharf, the stall oscillates.
