Best ice cream in SeattleHow do these rankings work?
1. Kurt Farm Shop
A gem of a store tucked into the Chophouse Row building on Capitol Hill in Seattle, where they serve up seriously good ice cream.
They keep things simple with flavours coming from the farm – there is no need to overcomplicate things when the core product is this good.
2. Molly Moon’s Homemade Ice Cream
They source 90% of their ingredients from the Pacific Northwest and have a manic focus on only using the best of the best.
As well as having some outrageously tasty ice cream they donate 1% of their sales to food banks and support many other charities.
You can spoil yourself here while knowing you are supporting a seriously sustainable and ethical business at the same time. Win-win.
3. Frankie & Jo’s Capitol Hill
They use ingredients that come only from plants, which means they are 100% vegan. Don’t let that make you think you’ll be missing out on any flavour, because the ice cream tastes unreal.
4. Shug’s Soda Fountain and Ice Cream
In the heart of historic Pike Place Market they’ve taken a classic US traditional and put a modern twist on it.
All their sauces, toppings and syrups are home made, plus this is just genuinely a great fun place to spend time.
5. D’Ambrosio Gelato
Classic Italian gelato . in every sense of the word and every bit as good as anything you’d find in Italy.
Rich, creamy and with lots of flavours, you’ll want to come with a serious appetite as the portions are on the large side.
6. Fainting Goat Gelato
They’ve been in business since 2009 serving up fresh, organic and locally sourced ice cream to their passionate customers.
The place has a real homely feel with every single customer always leaving with a super satisfied look on their face.
7. Full Tilt Ice Cream
They do live music, arcade games, beer and of course some of the best ice cream in the country.
The perfect place for birthday parties or to bring a group of friends to celebrate a special occasion. Never a dull moment when you spend time here.
