Ben & Jerry's — Restaurant in Braintree

Tried this Ben & Jerry’s for the first time on Free Cone Day. The line looked intimidating (though not as bad as the Boston locations) but moved pretty quickly; the total wait time was 10-15 minutes from the end of the sidewalk.

The girl who helped me noticed me struggling with stuff I had walked to the gas station to grab before returning to my room, the gas station attendant wouldn't give me a bag, but she was very sweet and offered me a bag to help me out which was much appreciated.
