    So many flavors to choose from so I'm always indecisive. They have a lot of seasonal flavors to choose from as well. So creamy and always a staple for portland. Will have to try their new flavors next time

    Salt & straw is a must-do when you're in the PNW. We have them in CA but it's not the same! I've been a fan for years since back when I lived in OR so I always make a stop when I'm back. I loved that this location had a large outdoor seating area and plenty of staff to balance the line. Even staff talking to you while you're in line! The flavors are always special, the july fruit flavors were fun to try. Great place as always and a great location

    Ice cream date tradition with the kiddo. I got the Freckled Mint Chocolate Chip and Hazelnut Cookies and Cream and the Fifteen Year Old got the Salted, Malted, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Chocolate Gooey Brownie #grateful for good food, good company, and good times

    Visited Salt & Straw today and had such a great experience! I ended up getting the Pineapple Upside Down Cake flavor, and it was absolutely delicious perfectly balanced, rich, and so comforting. What really made the visit special was meeting Cat, the woman with the hair scarf. She was incredibly knowledgeable and gave such detailed, thoughtful explanations about every flavor. We were lucky enough to taste almost all of them, and she was so patient, friendly, and genuinely enthusiastic the entire time. You could tell she truly loves what she does, and it made the experience even better. Amazing ice cream and even better service. Cat truly elevated our visit, can't wait to come back!

    We love this location as there is ample parking and a covered outdoor space with a fireplace and a water feature to enjoy according to the season. We always swing by during cereal month and Thanksgiving month as those are some of our favorite specialty flavors but their traditional flavors are also outstanding year round. Their staff are kind and work hard to keep lines moving quickly without the customer feeling rushed.

    Salt & Straw is one of my first Oregon loves. Back in the day, I remember waiting in line for way too long but it always being worth it because the service and ice cream is just that good. This location is one of my newest favorites because it's surrounded by so many good eats. We can have a meal and then grab a treat or vice versa. I also love that there is covered outdoor seating at this location with a fireplace. But the real reason for my current review is the launch of the Tacolate (aka a new and improved choco taco, which was my all time favorite ice cream dessert). Thank you Salt & Straw for taking a beloved classic and making it your own with the quality and thoughtfulness you are known for. It looks beautiful and tastes incredible. Much appreciated.

    Stopped by with family on a fall Saturday morning. Best time to come since we were the only patrons. I've driven by during summer and the lines are long! If you are not in a hurry you can park by the covered parking near Kingpins. Parking around the building is not guaranteed. Lots going on in the area. Friendly staff, clean, and chill soul background music. We ordered the following: $6.95 - Honey Lavender Single scoop - Delicious! $6.95 - Sea Salt With Caramel Ribbons - Classic you can't go wrong with $6.95 - Albequina Olive Oil - amazing. You can't go wrong with Salt & Straw. Always delicious options and great seasonal variations.

    Sea Salt w/ Caramel Ribbons & Birthday Cakes and Blackberries Split Single Scoop

    It's that time of year again. It's time for the berries series that includes the Birthday Cakes and Blackberries (5 stars). This signature and seasonal July flavor is my favorite Salt & Straw flavor. I don't go to Salt & Straw as much as I used to, but I try to swing by in July to get this flavor. I don't usually like birthday cake. When the chunks of this colorful cake are folded in the creamy ice cream along with blackberry jam, it makes this an irresistible combination that I've had twice this month. I enjoyed the sweetness with varying textures in each bite. I ordered it as a split single scoop with Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons (5 stars). I became a fan of this year round flavor after I recently tried it at the Bridgeport Village location during a YEE. It had the good amount of delicious caramel. My husband tried a sample of the Banana Bread with Strawberry Jam, but he preferred a single scoop of his go to flavor, vegan Freckled Mint Chocolate Chip. My son loved his kids scoop of Double Fold Vanilla. They were fully staffed during each visit and ready to help if we wanted samples. The service was 4 stars. There are a few tables outside to enjoy the yummy ice cream.

    I was able to try two flavors that I didn't in the past and was very happy with it. I got their seasonal flavor which was chocolate with potato chips. It was my first time having something that salty with chocolate and the combo went very well! I also got the lemon whey and that was super refreshing and delicious. It wasn't overly sweet as you can taste the lemon flavor and I wish I could buy a pint of that. Both flavors were really good and the servers were very nice and patient as this around, I sampled 5 flavors (hehe).

    Pineapple upside down cake on the top -- vanilla on the bottom

    Always schmackin! Usually go with coffee love nuts and vanilla but went with pineapple upside down cake and vanilla this time! Gaaaaaaaas!!!

    Line around the shop on a cloudy 50s day, Portlandia for ya

    Portlandia interprets of classic icecream. Love how you can sample all the flavors before you have to pick, no wonder the old Baskin Robbins in Cedar is history. Be ready for not your standard kind of icecream but even traditionalist should find something to their liking. This new store isn't ideally with limited parking and all outside dining. What is the logic of no inside eating area when it rains 9 months of the year, oh yeah Portlandia thinking. Make it a point to come on Halloween to have creepy crawling ice cream with worms and crickets

    After a Christmas and HH down the street, my wife decided she wanted S&S. Ok. Cool. I've never been there walked in. Great staff and options. Tried a couple flavors and made my selection...nothing crazy (which they have some interesting flavors), cinnamon snickerdoodle cookie dough -- I think. We paid, then sat outside in the sub-50 degree "heat." Thankfully they have a ln outdoor fireplace to site next to.

    Came in to try and lord! Was it packed!!! The line moves fairly fast so it wasn't a huge deal. Now, I've never ever seen the flavors they had anywhere else. Examples: honey lavender, strawberry with coconut water sherbet, and pear with blue cheese. Interesting, right?! They had tons of other wild flavors. I got nervous and ordered the vanilla which was delicious and my wife got the strawberry coconut and that was super tasty as well!!! Next time, I'll actually try something out of the ordinary. Staff was nice, place was clean and was easy to get to. Just beware, it's literally in front of a water fountain park for children so the foot traffic in front was kinda crazy.

At this point I've tried a number of things here and every one of them were delicious! The Japanese pancakes were so fluffy and fun, called ahead just to make sure they could make them right after opening but couldn't get through. THEY CALLED ME BACK IMMEDIATELY!! I have never had a food place care enough to actually call back if they miss a call. I was so happy with the pancakes too, nicely made and yummy. Their tiny cakes are all perfect too, I'm in love with each one especially the PDX rose! So bright and flavorful, with a beautiful outside that matches its taste! Can't forget the Japanese Cream Cheese Bun, it's soooooo good and the price matches the taste (aka good price for a good dessert). Not too sweet but still delicious! Just gotta make sure you eat it fresh, forgot to eat my last one for an hour and it got dry but still had its yummy taste. I super recommend this place!!

I added breakfast to this place while they visited me for a few days. We called in our order as instructed on the website. Unfortunately no Boba was available for on the pancakes. When we arrived I was disheartened to find the place rather small either intense heat of a bakery, which made the lone table inside with a meandering fly the least bit welcoming. When adding drinks to our order, the lone man working there asked me a few times whether I really was ordering coffee for a child (and yes, she settled on a mocha when it was determined he only knew how to sprinkle matcha powder on the pancakes, and hadn't a clue as to their application to drinks). My grandson ordered their 'special hot chocolate' which pretty much tasted like watered-down Ovaltine. We sat outside to eat and after a few bites and finding these were nothing like the fluffy Japanese pancakes they'd expected, we threw away $44 worth of what was supposed to be a pleasant breakfast experience. I guess this was a life lesson for the kids, that our expectations aren't always met. And I want to prevent any other adults from making the same mistake I did in taking my business there!

There was a…read moresign in the door that says " made Friday and Saturday only. " so I assumed it'd be safe to come back in a Friday. On Friday k come in ready to try a few things and the owner snaps at me and tells me why she doesn't understand why I thought they made it on a Fridays, they've only ever made it on Saturday. I explained we saw the paper and she said no that was for something else. I then SUGGESTED she put up a sign explaining that tanghulu was made only in Saturdays and she started arguing with me about why I was wrong. I again explained it was a suggestion. At that point I should have just walked out, this store is only open like 4 days a week and the days it is opened they barely sell anything! My friends play an Avatar based d&d so I got some of these candy games for them and we got two parfaits (one raspberry chocolate one strawberry.) we told her we wanted our order to go. She handed our food to us without lids and we had to ask for them. My ice cream was okay, it was vanilla soft serve, with strawberries, and strawberry sauce, nothing crazy (but better at McBees!) but my partners was GROSS! The raspberry was overpowering and even though it didn't list coffee it had a STRONG flavor of coffee. I hate coffee. We ended up throwing his away it was so gross! TLDR: the owner is rude, they only actually have a menu on Saturday and get samples of everything because some stuff doesn't taste very good

It's a fun, unique place with great staff! I also love that they celebrate Pride Month and support LGBTQ+. My eye immediately caught the huge wall art inside when I entered. It's beautiful! They also have a gashapon station and mini crane game. Plenty of inside seating with some outdoor seats. They have one kiosk to place your order, or you can talk to the person working at the cashier. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They told us the man working in the kitchen only works on Saturdays, which is when he makes special treats like the Ube Japanese cheesecake! This is a good one! It's very light and delicious, a perfect treat for Ube lovers. Love matcha? No problem, they have so many matcha flavored treats. I went with the mini taiyaki matcha drizzle. It has a delicious Bavarian cream filling with matcha soft serve. Whoa - so good! I liked getting the mini taiyaki because I wanted to share. My husband enjoyed their coffee cold float! Their coffee is from down the street, so it's local! And my daughter loved their chocolate taiyaki with Oreo crumble. Their soft serve is so creamy - yum! This place is for those that love treats and matcha on the sweeter side, not the bitter/hint of sweet. These people know how to make delicious sweets. We'll be back!

If you like exotic flavors with that Hispanic flare, then this is the place. I was very happy to find out that my all-time favorite flavor Nuez (pecan) was one of those flavors.

Eloté or corn is my 2nd best favorite along with Pistachio and Mint chip not too far behind.

Honestly I would have been ok if it had a little more rum flavor, but it's a family establishment, I get it. So my wife and daughter both got the tropical fruit slush, spicy and non-spicy. Somehow they got flipped and my daughter got the spicy version. She wasn't pleased but she ate the popsicle that was dunked in it and she gave me the slush. My mouth was not expecting the flavor explosion that it was in for. The mixture of the fruity flavor and the not too spicy hit was amazing. I never had tried it before, but I was quite happy.
