50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Milwaukie

“Amazing flavors! Gluten free options! Dairy free options! Generous scoops! My favorite local ice cream!“

“Unique flavors, very creamy ice cream. The mix ins add a good amount of texture. I got a bunch of fruity flavors, which isn’t usually my thing, but these were so good. Shout out to Luna who was so nice and patient with us. After giving me a couple of samples, they recommended me trying another flavor that they thought I might like- and I ended up loving it!!“

“Super ice creme. Not oversweetened, rather light. Simply delicious“

“Delicious fresh seasonal gelato!😋“

“So charming and delicious. Great place for vegans and dessert lovers.“

“Kate’s all vegan and gluten free ice cream is an inclusive dream for many people with dietary restrictions and a sweet tooth 😜 Everyone working there has been accommodating when I’ve asked about other food sensitivities, too, like oat. It’s ridiculously delicious and I recommend the ice cream sandwiches if you can have oats!“

“Just met the lovely owners Gagan and Kiran the other day at our local dog park. After chatting over our cute dogs they disclosed that they own this gem of an ice cream shop. I went that very night with friends after eating at Eem, it was delicious and a lovely complement to the great food we had just had. Gagan assured me I could try every flavor which I very nearly did. Settled on a split scoop of the golden milk and kaapi. Highly recommended!!!“

“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.“

“lots of toppings! nice environment, easy parking!“

“Forget the salt and head to the clouds for Portlands best Ice Cream!!“

“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!“

“Delicious ice cream with fun flavors! You can get a one scoop but split between two flavors which I love. The ube cheesecake is delicious. I loved mixing the peach crisp with the mango cardamom which were equally as delicious. My partner loves the strawberry custard. Reasonable prices too. Can't go wrong here.“

“Excellent vegan ice cream! Excellent service! The coffee Oreo was a dream! I can't wait to try more flavors!“

“Lavander ice cream is my favorite ❄️😍😍😍🍧“

“We got the Bakers Half Dozen delivered by Uber Eats ast night, along with a blueberry fritter. What a treat The! The flavors are just wonderful as is the quality of the donuts themselves. We go to Doe frequently and really enjoy the donuts and ice cream.“

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

“The place was very clean. The music they were playing was my taste. They ladies working were nice, friendly and quickly prepared my ube gooey butter sundae which was damn good. I went on to their street with the intention of going to Salt & Screw. Unfortunately, they were no longer in business there and was replaced with a ramen restaurant. The decor was exactly as advertised online with the witchy theme in full force. I'll definitely be back for another treat soon.“

“Great atmosphere and ice cream!“

“We walked right in and were seated immediately on a Friday night. Enjoyed the ice cream specials and wine! Everything was perfect!!“

“I love this place and upset I can ONLY give 5 stars. They deserve much more.“

“Sparkling clean and friendly corner shop in NE Portland. Staff is helpful and their products are fresh and always delicious. The affogato is a must if in need of a pick me up. The espresso gelato is a must try for coffee lovers, although you can’t go wrong with any of their flavors!“

“I came here on September 16th around 6:30pm. As I walked in, there was a line of about 6 to 7 people. I was happy to see that they were busy, especially since it was Friday night. However, a white male in front of me got frustrated at one of the associates because they didn't have cherry vanilla ice cream. He was mentioning that he waited in a line only to find out that they don't have cherry vanilla icecream. He said to the associate, "Let's talk about what just happened here." It made me feel really bad for the associate. The other associate overheard and stepped in. Told the customer that they didn't have the flavor of icecream and that there was a line. The associate told this customer to chill out, and it was a reasonable request from my perspective. After the customer was told to chill out he mentioned, "I know the owner....". It unfortunately was a situation where the customer felt very entitled to get what he wanted and an excuse to be rude to the associates. I think the associates handled this extremely well. I'm glad they stood up for themselves. That is not treatment they deserve.“

“Oatmeal and brown sugar ice cream was incredible.“

“Close your eyes and you can hear the waves..“

“This is my absolute favorite Salt & Straw location! The atmosphere and staff are so warm and lovely ~ one of the employees named Keira was so sweet and let me try a bunch of their new flavors. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend stopping by!“

“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!“

“The BEST vegan ice cream in the universe without the sugar dizziness and crash. Thank you, Mary!!!“

“This little specialty shop is such a worthwhile experience! The entire menu features treats made with matcha, more matcha, and even more matcha. There's also a seasonal flavor of soft serve to pair with your matcha. There's an order kiosk in the corner, but the staff at the counter are kind and helpful - tip them generously!
There are several tables to sit and enjoy your treats. The dining area is functional, but a little plain, and it is FREEZING cold in there. Bring a sweater 🥶 and enjoy your yummy caffeinated treat! (Matcha Bear pictured)“

“Took my mom and daughter with me since the place is cat themed and they love cats. The impression with omg cute and clean with friendly service. We ordered a large half strawberry and half mango dessert. Also tried a custard filled desert that looks like a cute fish. The ice cream desert is light and perfectly sweet. If you love very sweet rich stuff then this wont be for you. Would definitely come back again.“

“Forget Salt & Straw. This is among the best ice cream I've ever had. Booze or no booze!“

“Came in about an hour before closing and they were out of one of the cookies. Nevaeh was absolutely amazing and so sweet, she genuinely had me in tears walking out. they were out of the only cookie we really were hoping for but she gave us a couple mini versions of the same cookie to make up for the inconvenience. we were totally taken aback by her kindness and i hope whoever is her manager takes the time to recognize her for being incredible and going above and beyond!!“

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

“Great service and a variety of flavors!“

“It was really nice inside friendly people the cookies were great everything was in stock I ordered ahead so when I got there they packed everything up for me freshly everything was made really pretty their cookies make you not want to eat them because they are so pretty but they're so delicious everyone should enjoy them this go round, I will give crumble 5 stars. Each thing that I purchased was amazing. The chocolate chip thins, we're definitely amazing. The dubai biscoff brownie is out of this world and the oatmeal cookie is so moist and delicious. They deserve five stars“

“just full of Deliciousness“

“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!“

“I had the most extraordinary experience at the Portland airport on Monday night. There were not many things open. I do not usually fly Southwest, so I was not familiar with the concessions in this part of the airport. I thought I might just grab some cheese and then get some kind of healthy bowl somewhere. I stopped at the Tillamook booth and was overwhelmed by the quality of the service. Yes, the food was tasty. The service was exemplary. I would have never purchased my meal here, if it weren’t for the incredible connection, Joseph, the server, made with me. He was warm, knowledgeable, and really enticed me to eat the food here. He seemed to love it, so I believed him. I ate at the little table next to the booth and he checked in on me from time to time and even brought me some green tea later on! This truly was the most remarkable experience I had ever spent at an airport kiosk. I fly every week. Joseph, and the quality he bestowed upon me, is a new benchmark for service at any airport in America. Congratulations Tillamook for hiring such a capable person who not only believes in your product, but believes in serving each customer with dignity and elegance. I couldn’t help but watch how he treated the people after me. All were treated the same. He even helped people after he closed. What a treasure. Thank you, thank you.“

“Lovely shop with great concept. Happy 😁“

“They have the BEST non-dairy ice cream, ever!! I had their chocolate hazelnut with their peanut butter drizzle that hardens. Omg, it is sooooo DELICIOUS!“

“Awesome diary free Froyo Options!“

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

“Tried the seasonal eggnog cake. If tiramisu met a white sheet cake at the holiday party and got sloppy together - it would be this cake. The moisture and flavor of the eggnog soaked the cake from the bottom up. The creamy icing on top sprinkled with nutmeg brought home the tiramisu vibe. Pretty good effort at a fancy cake by a cookie company.“
