50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Gladstone

“First time here and we will definitely be back again. My husband and daughter stopped in for some shave ice. Not too long after, my daughter accidentally dropped hers, leading to lots of tears. The person working came out, unbeknownst to us, with a replacement and reassurance. Thank you, it was very kind.“

“Went here as a early Mother’s Day treat with my daughter. Had the sample plate…. So delicious and we learned we liked it all! Also got a sundae….. totally recommend. For take home I got the cookies. This place is a gem! Stop by and check it out for sure if you are ever in the area.“

“Nothing but the best experience here! Even though I've lived in Oregon for quite a while, this was my first time visiting a Salt & Straw, and it definitely lived up to the hype.

The ice cream was incredible, but what really stood out was the exceptional customer service. A special shoutout to the manager, Maddy, and to Xander, (I hope I'm remembering the name correctly) who jumped in to help as soon as he arrived. The rest of the staff were just as friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making the entire experience feel special especially when it was during a busy time.

The store itself is beautiful, and it's clear this location is managed extremely well. I'll definitely be back!“

Staff is bomb. Shout out to Maya for always slaying even when there’s a line out the door. GO THERE NOW!!! Get a sample on their cool spoons. Get a burgie in your mouth and wash it down your gullet with a lil custard.“

“Very much enjoyed our treats today. We will be back. 😁“

“Great atmosphere and ice cream!“

“This place was so delicious. My goodness! I had the Ube and gooey butter cake. So amazing. A person I was with just had the vanilla custard and espresso, again, delicious. Creamy, smooth and rich. These treats are spectacular. The shop is decorated beautifully as well. I absolutely enjoyed the staff, scenery and treats using 100% of my senses. I wish I had taken photos, but it was so good I was lost in daydreams.“

“Love your vision for improving downtown ❤️“

“Got vanilla (oat base) with chocolate sprinkles. Loved it😄texture was smooth and flavor reminded me of how I remember cool whip tasting. They had several vegan flavors and many vegan toppings and sauces to pick from. I got a kid's size and it was still a decent amount. Updated from previous review on 2026-07-10“

“Extraordinary ice flavors! Delicious! Great coffee! Very nice people!“

“Really lovely staff and the chocolate is really good.“

“My husband and I love the bingsu from this dessert shop so much, we had to bring our daughter and son-in-law to experience it too. We tried the ube and matcha bingsu. Both were excellent. I especially loved the sweentened milk texture. The homemade ice cream scoops were delightful and tasty. The presentation of the bingsu were amazing.

I understand that it takes a long time to make one bingsu. There were only two workers on staff that Sunday afternoon. Both of them were making our bingsu dessert. The matcha bingsu was done way earlier. They left the matcha bingsu on the counter and waited until both bingsu dessert were made before calling the number. I wish they had called us earlier for the matcha bingsu. It was melting a little by the time we got called. But overall both of the bingsu desserts were so good. We all enjoyed them. The staff were very nice. We will definitely go back again. I may try the mango bingsu next time.

Older review

I have finally found the best bingsu joint! I had to try the ube bingsu because of the ube ice cream. They claimed they make ube ice cream in-house. They also claim that they make matcha ice cream in-house, I will have to try it next time.

I ordered a large ube bingsu to share with my husband. First of all, the presentation of the bingsu was perfect. We figured that the whole bingsu measured to about the size of my husband's hand! As I was taking the bingsu to my table, I was worried that the ice cream would tumble to the floor. It was like an art. I absolutely love the presentation!

The ube ice cream scoop was huge. Sitting on top of the perfectly sculpted shaved milk, it was almost too gorgeous to eat. The shaved milk was the correct texture. It came with a ribbon of red bean along the edge of the bowl. I was impressed that the shaved milk was built to the edge of the bowl. The bowl was nicely chilled and was quite deep. I think a large could easily serve 3 people but 2 people was just right for my serving :) There was also red bean around the ice cream. The bingsu also had some shredded coconut, sliced almonds and some sprinkle of ube dust. It was so perfect that I will be using my picture as my wallpaper on my cell :)

The best thing about bingsu is that I don't have guilt after eating it. It is just like having a large glass of cold milk with red beans. I think if they also come with some mochi pieces, then it would have been 100% perfect.“

“Uri at Dairy Hill Ice Cream was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding! He invited Andrew and me to a tasting beforehand, which was such a fun experience and helped us pick the perfect flavors. Every single one was amazing.

At the wedding, they set up an ice cream bar for our guests and it was truly out of this world. People are still talking about how good it was! It added such a fun and memorable touch to the night.

They also made us a custom ice cream cake that was unbelievably delicious. It was the perfect sweet treat and such a unique addition to our celebration.

We couldn’t recommend Dairy Hill Ice Cream more — amazing service, amazing ice cream, and such a great experience from start to finish!“

“Whenever I visit Portland, I make sure to stop at this matcha shop. They have a wide variety of matcha treats, including ice cream, snow cones, lattes, and matcha floats. The edible gold matcha ice cream cone is a special favorite. They also change their soft serve flavor regularly. Matcha goes really well with mochi balls. It’s the best matcha I’ve ever had every time I visit.“

“just full of Deliciousness“

“It was so delicious and that we went two days in a row❤️💛💚“

“I’m in Portland with friends and the menu has a wide variety, and good prices! Great customer service as well, would stop by if you’re in the area!“

“Best quesadillas around- seasoning is over the top delicious. Asada and Lengua tacos juicy and tender- with just the right amount of onion and cilantro- fresh lime 🤤. Salsa verde is home made and perfection. Service is amazing. I would give 10 stars. Thanks!“

“The place itself is definitely overpriced, however, it is located in Oregon Zoo and offers a convenient break during your journey of exploring hundreds of species. Overall, I think it is still a nice place to get Umpqua ice creams, cotton candies, and some cold drinks, especially on a hot day.“

“so lovely! delicious mocha latte and macha brownie. shared a salmon and locks bagel with cream cheese too! lovely staff!“

“I’m in Portland with friends and the menu has a wide variety, and good prices! Great customer service as well, would stop by if you’re in the area!“

“Best spot in Rockwood for ice cream and home made popsicles!

Everything is made in house !

Sooo many flavors to choose from. You can’t go wrong. If you want something savory I recommend Tostitos preparados. Mini pancakes are also worth every penny“

“While the parking lot is a little tight squeeze, I like this Crumbl location over some others in the area. I think they’re pretty consistent. I’m a Crumbl fan, I like to try a couple flavors now and then, and while some cookies are better than others, I’ve never had one that wasn’t delicious.“

“Last month I ordered a birthday cake over the phone, and even though it wasn't a pre-design, Bethany made it happen! Wanted to say thank you so much as I had extra hand packed quarts added too, but she was lovely through and through! 💖👑 Great service! Beautiful cake! Would give her 10 stars if I could! 💯“

“I’m in Portland with friends and the menu has a wide variety, and good prices! Great customer service as well, would stop by if you’re in the area!“

“The great service, great food, and to die for vanilla cardamom morning roll made the whole experience stopping in so awesome. cannot recommend this place enough!“

“Lovely shop with great concept. Happy 😁“

“I had a event I was organizing and reached out to Ice Cream Express WA. I rented one of their carts. I can not say enough about my experience. They were fast on communication, they offer a wide variety of ice cream. The cart is super cute and better then I expected. They dropped off on time and picked it up after the event. Everyone loved the ice cream and thought the cart was fabulous. All day I was asked where I got it. Thank you so much Ice Cream Express. I will reach out again for further events.“

“Nice breakfast full range to suit all. Good quantity well presented 👍“

“Good frozen yogurt, in soft serve. Good prices also, and variety.“

“I’ve been here a couple times now and honestly the only consistently good customer service I’ve had has been from the girl with the glasses. The other employees I’ve dealt with haven’t really had the best attitude, she was extremely nice, especially with how busy it was. She took the time to help my husband pick out boba tea flavors. The frozen yogurt was yummy and everything tasted fresh.“

“I really enjoyed the selection of flavours and being that I have done barista work, I was able to do some art/decoration to make it look really nice before blending in the toppings!

The caramel coming out of the syrup warmer can sometimes be a little hard to get out, but other than that it was a pretty smooth experience!“

“Mmm good! Excellent Service.“

“The staff of this store make the difference. The store was nice and clean. Only wish the price was a little lower. The staff were friendly and polite. They also went the extra mile and ran to catch someone who left their card in the card reader.“

“The boba here is so fresh and refreshing. And don’t even start on the food I’m always dying to have the yellow curry, their sticky mango rice is excellent. It’s by far my favorite place to go, for dinner and especially lunch. Highly recommended!“

“I’ve been coming here for years and absolutely love the Oregon city location the best. Emma is so sweet, always friendly, always smiling, and great at her customer service skills. I appreciate the variety of food & sweets they offer. This location is so special and I’ll definitely return. Molly’s breakfast sandwiches bring me back time after time 💕“

“Omg, please never get rid of honeydew!!! 😍“

“There's nothing better than having a hot dog after a morning walk through the park. The Polish sausage was worthy of being devoured. Had a blast adding my favorite condiments. Their lemonade was also cold and refreshing. I wish they had free refills.“

“Holy Mother of taco! Yesterday I was asked to pick up some tacos. I was actually going to a Mexican food place a couple doors down but they were closed. I saw El Kiosko and thought I should see if they have tacos. I had popped in before and they didn't but this time was different.
I couldn't tell if the tacos were $4 or 4 tacos on a plate.
I asked, it was $4 a taco. I paused and the nice lady at the counter added but they are really big and delicious. I ordered 8 tacos. She cooked them up fresh, about 8 minutes, and brought them out. The bag was heavy.
When I got them home and opened them up I was shocked!

These tacos 🌮 were filled with deliciously cooked high quality steak, onions (fresh & sautéed) & cilantro. There was about 2 1/2 time the amount of beautifully seasoned cooked meat. Juicy but NOT greasy.

There was a cooked jalapeño, fresh cucumber 🥒 sautéed onions and 2 different salsa.
They were delicious. The salsa was tasty and the fresh crispy cucumber took it to a another level.
They were so chuck full of high quality meat, three people couldn't eat them all. Seriously, two tacos is like 4 or five tacos!
Go get some tacos. You won't be disappointed!“
