Not sure if there has been discussion on this, but word is Jeni's Ice Cream will be going in near the North Star restaurant on High Street in north Clintonville.
Pretty Cool.

Yess but noo, they're getting ever closer and I can't resist!
It'd be another nice draw for the more empty half of Clintonville.
Well, I guess I better enjoy what little time I have left before I am made of 70% Salty Carmel!
Clintonville? Hah! Come on, you can get Jeni's at De Viti's market on the border between northern Akron and Tallmadge now. Expanding to Clintonville is nothing at this point. Now I just want her to open an actual parlor up here. There are a lot of new places opening up in downtown Akron, actually--lots of previously vacant storefronts filling up again, though there are many left. Also, we don't have an ice cream parlor downtown yet, so for the moment, the competition would be minimal. (The question of what to do in the winter would remain, of course, but I presume that they've dealt with that question before.) It could happen!
P.S. Until I finished the pear Riesling sorbet yesterday, I had six pints of Jeni's in my freezer; down to five now. Also trying to get others in the office hooked on it. Don't say I'm not doing my part to get her up here!
I mentioned something about this to the Jeni's twitter account a few weeks ago and they said it was an unfounded rumor. Maybe someone who knows for sure will jump in?

Welcome to the club :) I live within walking distance of Jeni's, and I have close to 30 pints in my freezer. I have a problem, I know.
I work in the kitchen at Jenis and I will say there's more deliciousness coming to clintonville :)
Aha!..I knew my sources wouldn't fail me! Thanks jmathews5!
...and it will be a Jenny's, or Jenny's related store..I know some people with the city. Pretty cool.
Does Jeni's sell franchises?
any word on a location? i think the old quiznos at winthrop/high would be perfect,
I there's a Caribou Coffee on the other end.
Coffee and ice cream do go together as Jeni already knows. And some additional outdoor seating would round out this block. After this goes in (if this is the spot), I just might have to go north of Broadway a bit more often.
I've heard near the North Star restaurant on High Street in north Clintonville/Beechwold-ish area..we'll see.

It's quite likely that your "people with the city" aren't at liberty to share inside information about private business expansions. I doubt Jeni's Splendid planned to announce their news via blabbermouth city workers.

Indeed, I was wondering about that myself.
I said nothing about blabbermouth city workers, but thanks.
Powell too, and easy street cafe
