Chocolate chili crisp peanut butter cups (kids scoop)
Alexanria J.

Very delicious creative flavor icecream shop! We tried chocolate chili crisp peanut butter cups. It was very great combination of savory sweet with a bit of kick. Great service and they let us sample as many as flavor as you'd like. Cozy ice cream shop with limited seating.

This was a favorite of mine in college and I'm so happy to be able to try it in its hometown! The staff were super helpful and the interior is always clean. They let me try lots of samples! My friends and I all loved the flavors we got!! - Apple and cheddar cinnamon roll - Strawberry Pretzel Salad - Sea Salt Caramel Ribbons - Salted, Malted, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough - Honey Lavender

Salt and straw Portland did not disappoint. I've been to the one in Sacramento. The pumpkin spice waffle cone was great just the right amount of pumpkin flavor inside is a great environment. Got to try different ice cream flavors. The lady helping me and my friend were super helpful. Recommended a good combination of flavors th I got a single scoop half-and-half and I can't wait to go back.

Sourdough olive oil chocolate
Jennifer M.

Always a pleasure to eat the fun flavors here, this chocolate had olive oil and sourdough pieces! will be back!!

Olive oil flavored ice cream! A+++
Leizle A.

Another Portland staple!! This location is central to many delicious restaurants and shops. They have a host directing each group and multiple ice cream specialists. Salt and Straw always has unique and interesting flavors. They let you sample. The hazelnut/coffee cookies and cream was divine; but this time I had the olive oil one which has a nice hint of saltiness at the end!! Surprisingly delicious. Flavors are seasonal so try em out while there.

Single scoop
Catalina L.

February scoop flavors with chocolate series was tasty. I particularly liked the gold bar. For Valentines there was a BOGO free scoop with your guest Division Street is quite busy and you'll want to account for extra time parking. Long line and staff was managing. Not a ton of space to wait inside or any chairs to sit and enjoy the ice cream inside or outside.

Five Stars all around. This place is definitely a must if you're in the area or just want some really good ice cream. Very creative flavors. Staff is super friendly while letting you sample whichever flavor you'd like. Jaime helped serve us and was totally AMAZING! My daughters have been here before. But this is my 1st time. Certainly not the last. I enjoyed an odd double scoop combo. But they really worked well together. I'm so glad I got em ... Pear & Blue Cheese on top of Strawberry Honey Balsamic w/ Black Pepper Mmmmm!!!

Double scoop
Chelsea W.

I love Salt & Straw and my husband and I got there almost once a month. We love to try the seasonal flavors. It's great ice cream and yes, it's kind of expensive but it's so good! I will say that after visiting various locations dozens of times over the years, it seems like the scoop sizes and gotten smaller and the overall friendliness of service has changed. They used to always act so happy to have you there and want to make it a happy experience but lately some of the scoopers are just not having a good time and that kind of ruins it.

June special flavors were so good. Staff is super friendly and the inside is very clean.

In-love with chocolate gooey brownie! Surprisingly perfect for wintertime, Cozy vibes, and the service is nice and friendly. All makes me want to come back again. Don't forget to have salted brownie waffle cone! Sooo good!

Kids icecream

Charged $5 for a kids ice cream , one single scoop , even a pupachino gets more then this come on now step your game up this is just foul , ice cream is good though just needs more for that price insane

split scoop of honey lavender & wild foraged berry slap pie
Sarah M.

Cool place for a late night sweet treat. Keep in mind salt & straw has unique flavor combinations. I would recommend this place for people who are more open minded & not as picky. You will not find many classic ice cream flavors here. Service is always quick, but lines can build up, unlimited samples to help you pick what flavor you want & if you can't decide, do a split scoop! Classic ice cream parlor feel at all the locations. Get your ice cream & you can take a seat & eat your ice cream!

Ploy N.

Always a good time at Salt & Straw. We got to sample the Brewers series. The staff who helped us was super friendly and nice. Let us tried a few samples and was very helpful.

Is parking hard to find? I asked the same question but for the wrong location in Lake Oswego. This location is in SE Division and I just want to know if is it hard to find…

Yes it is! There are a bunch of one way roads and they're mostly packed. Expect to walk a ways.

Baby, I wanted PARTS. We got there about 45 minutes before closing, and I really appreciated the staff going above and beyond for me. When I explained that this would be my only chance to try a croffle during my visit, they went to the back and were able to grab one for me. They absolutely did not have to do that, especially so close to closing, and I genuinely appreciated it! And I'm so glad they did because the Cookies & Cream Croffle with a scoop of Cookies & Cream ice cream on the side was the perfect sweet treat to end the night. The croffle was delicious, the ice cream was great, and the whole combination hit the spot. Miss Oz is such a cute, quality little dessert shop. Definitely make this a stop during your trip to Portland if you're looking for something sweet and a little different from the average ice cream shop.

The vibe appears to be one of modern appearances, with old-school "ice cream parlor" ambiance (50s and 60s music is what is played, and I appreciate this). Variety of flavors is wide, and there are fresh cookies available. Prices are on the high side (location, though), the interior is very clean, and staff is very friendly and helpful. The cookies were disappointing, but not bad. Ice cream was on the better side of average, but is nothing groundbreaking. I definitely recommend stopping in for a fun experience if you're in the neighborhood.

Employees were helpful, not necessarily friendly. You e got a good array of vegan options. I believe all Made with coconut milk, so if you're not a fan of coconut, this might not be your vegan ice cream spot. I tried the sea salt caramel with chocolate chips, which was vegan. It was good, but the coconut stood out quite a bit (I do like coconut). I ended up with one of the 4 grass-fed dairy options, all the good things, which had caramel ice cream, chocolate swirl and fudge and peanut butter chips. It was good. I had it in a waffle cone for $2 more, bringing my half scoop and cone to $5, I believe. The waffle cone was yummy. I wouldn't say the ice cream was anything more special than you can get in your freezer, but nice to have an option out if you're plant-based. Sorry I forgot to take a photo of the ice cream.

We ended up talking to a very nice and informative employee, who informed me of the different kinds of ice cream (plant base or grass fed dairy). I selected with the employee's suggestion, All the Good Things and Twisted Cookie Dough. All the Good Things was the special of the week. We paid $5.75 for two big scoops! What a deal. The ice cream was flavorful, creamy and not too sweet. Would I recommend coming by here? Absolutely YELP Yes! Great service here 5/5 stars Food: Premium Ice cream 5/5 stars Value: awesomeness Ambiance: a little noisy due to the little kiddos playing. 3.5/5 stars

Hard not to see the bright pink shop and people exiting with pink boxes and smiles on their faces. A line outside is a common sight, together with a guard who controls the limit of customers from entering. Inside, you'll see merchandise and a huge donut on the ceiling. Various donuts are displayed in revolving glass cases. Also the prices vary too, depending on the donut. We bought 4 to try at the hotel and we came to the consensus that the apple fritters $4.99 were the best and they were huge. It had a slight crisp to it where the sugar caramelized and although sweet, it was delicious with a cup of tea/coffee. We managed to make another trip and bought a box for the plane. And it was still good the next day when left on the counter. Chilling it will melt the sugar. Overall, this place had some weird donuts which were indicative of the quirky and strange things in Portland.

Ok.... disappointments in order of appearance with the disclosure, up front that we were visiting them in their last 30 minutes open.... having no intention whatsoever to eat our treats there but also figuring we'd have time to try stuff, get stuff and be ok. First disappointment - we both really were looking forward to trying, and assuming we would be eating the flavor they've been promoting - peanut butter butterscotch. Sounds so good right? Well we wouldn't know, because both the gals behind the counter almost mocked us for even thinking that they would have it available. It was a weird flex... truly they didn't even have a marker for it or language saying they were out of it - they just said it was not available in a weird way. I asked permission to try a few flavors... and gal number 1 give me an enthusiastic yes , which I appreciated. I'm sorry but I always want to try so many things, realizing that with each try, most flavors are too much - or would be too much if I got an order of it. I try to only taste 2-3 but almost always end up ordering the one I don't try which is vanilla (yep, that is how I roll). I tried the boysenberry which was incredible but, too much. I then tried the mint chocolate and confirmed I still don't like theirs (I had forgot it very punchy mint, more like mouthwash than fro yo) but I always try it because I keep hoping they will change the recipe. Soooo... gal 1 went away leaving gal 2. It genuinely felt like we just got handed to the bouncer... I honestly felt afraid to try anything else because she immediately was very aggressive... like "What else" isn't a question but an order to GTFO. This intensified as my friend had questions because she's vegan, so making sure things are vegan and she was curious about getting a shake - more going for a blizzard situation. Gal 2 started lecturing her about flavors saying she was interested in too many (because M&Ms & vegan butterfingers apparently ate a ridiculous ask?). She was also saying it would be chunky - isn't that the point? My friend asked if she had had a shake there and was given a very stern NO. It was just a bit insane... like, I appreciate you are maybe wanting to close early but WOW. I said , I just want vanilla thank you... and I figured I would just order Oreos on top - again, simple. She then lectured me that they don't have that and was trying to add cookie dough... ummm... have you had an Oreo? That is a completely different flavor, texture and thing .... and no... I started asking if there was any fresh fruit or something and she seemed confused at the question... I walked almost to the register and saw marion berry compote. Yes, that's all please angry person... my friend took her time ordering while I practically ran out. I was just super uncomfortable. She had perfect eyebrows I really wanted to compliment her on but it has been a bit since I felt such strong GTFO vibes. I assume maybe she had a spicy customer before us earlier but eek. It's so true about every encounter. I'll definitely remember this one as being pretty unpleasant. My friend joked that gee, her shake was delicious even though it was apparently made with pure hate.
