50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Kirkland

“Ice creams handmade are really good“

“It's been a while since I came to eat Shake Shack with my family. Thank you for the still delicious burger. The not-too-sweet vanilla shake was also good. The service is better than before. The staff is friendly and the cleaning is satisfactory. I look forward to your next visit. It was rewarding to overcome the traffic jams in Tacoma.“

“Kids love the gelato. You get a lot for your money. They couldn’t even finish. Staff is always super friendly.“

“Huge fan of this place! Great ice cream and drinks, and super comfy shirts too 😁. Extremely friendly owner and staff, definitely would recommend checking them out and supporting a small local business!“

“Ben and Jerry's has been a favorite of mine since I first went to the USA on a trip 16 years ago.
I love you can come here and get a cone or a bowl with so many flavors to choose from
Buuuuut. BRING BACK THE GOBFATHER ? the best flavor. I can't find it anywhere“

“I love this place! Compared to other juice bars like Pressed, you can absolutely taste the difference. Love the menu & everything is always freshly made. I usually come by weekly for their 1-day cleanse or an açaí bowl.

Pro tip: if you’re in a hurry, try ordering ahead. Orders usually take about 5-10 minutes to make depending what you’re asking for. It’s worth the wait!“

“Lately find myself getting the craving for a sweet treat, but do not want to be bothered with getting out of my car and going into a shop. Midnight Cookie Co. has solved that problem with drive thru cookies. As funny as it sounds, I’ve been here a number of times recently to treat myself and my kids to a cookie. I always get a chocolate chip cookie, while my kids have tried other cookies. They’re good cookies, if a little pricey. I’d love to see other cookie adjacent treats, like maybe bars or pastries.“

“I used to visit this location frequently back in the day when the spot was owned by Urban Coffee Lounge. I recently found out about The Art of Coffee from a friend a few weeks ago. I have visited several times since then and it's some of the best coffee that I have had. Everyone who works there is super friendly with great customer service. I was there yesterday doing some work and after I ordered my coffee, the head manager brought my coffee right to my table. The chairs are also super comfortable if you are going to be there for a while. Great spot!!!

Parking: There is plenty...“

“Fresh tastey food, clean restrooms pleasant surroundings and polite employees �“

“You gotta be outta your mind if you haven’t tried their ice cream. Best in the PNW. Great flavors and it’s vegan as well! Yep I said the “V” word. I guarantee you won’t find any better ice cream then theirs. I’m hooked! ❤️“

“Can't resist the gelato here despite Seattle's weather. The london fog is to die for. The gelato look thick and amost gluey, is creamy yet not too rich, smooth and has very thick and dense mouthfeel. The lady who served us was so lovely, and she made beautiful swirl with the gelato.“

“Molly moon’s is my favorite place to get ice cream, all there flavors. I wish they bring my favorite ice cream it strawberries 🍓 balsamic so delicious 🤤.“

“I am visiting Seattle for a conference. We walked for 20mins to find actual ice cream. This business was awesome. From the moment we entered the store the young lady behind the counter(with pigtails) was amazing. I wish I would have gotten her name. She was super friendly and informative so 10stars for service. The ice cream was super delicious and smooth. I had the caramel ribbon it was AMAZING!“

“so good!!! love that you have fun flavors in vegan and gf options!“

“Ice cream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!“

“My husband and I hired Shug's to cater dessert at our wedding in August 2024 and it was definitely a highlight of our night!
Our experience started with a tasting of every single flavor they offer at their Seattle shop! It was a wonderful experience paired with a glass of prosecco! We got to choose 6 flavors to offer our guests!
The overall booking process was super easy and email communication was easy.
The night of the wedding, Paul (co-owner), arrived to serve for us in their super cute and aesthetic ice cream cart! He is so sweet and kind.
Our guests got to pick from cups or cones and various flavors. We also had a little toppings bar set up.
Thank you so much Shug's for making our wedding a memorable one! You'll always have a special place in our hearts and we recommend you to everyone!!!“

“So tasty. The match sesame swirl was out of this world. The coconut pineapple swirl was perfectly refreshing. Can’t wait to go back!“

“The Hokkaido Milk ice cream is INCREDIBLE!
The strawberry sauce is to die for, naturally sweet/flavored! The MBD with mochi, brown sugar sauce and the soybean powder is now officially my favorite “flavor” to add to ice cream.
Walk up window was fast, friendly and convenient.“

“This place was recommended to me cause I was looking for fresh baked Panettone for my Grandpa he is Italian and said it was some the best Panettone he’s had. He’s 93 so he’s eaten a lot of Panettone in his time. I also tried it was very good! Definitely recommend Gelatiamo!!“

“We had some time to waste before a game we were attending at UW. We came upon this place and after looking at the menu decided to go in and check it out. They have such unique but delicious flavors of ice cream. We ended up coming back after the game and dinner to get some more for dessert. Will definitely be back again.“

“Molly moon’s is my favorite place to get ice cream, all there flavors. I wish they bring my favorite ice cream it strawberries 🍓 balsamic so delicious 🤤.“

“Great service and simple but amazing chicken sandwiches. The unique combinations of flavors in each option will make you want to try them all. If you just want a snack, the seasoned curly fries are a must. Then top it off with their delicious soft serve ice cream.“

“Best ice cream (gelato). Better than Italian in Italy. Thank you for Bringing back mango habanero sorbet. WOW! Your new chocolate milkshakes are making us very, very happy! Best pistachio, hazelnut… You name it their’s is the best. These nut gelatos are not made out of flavored surgery syrups. They are made out of puréed nuts. No ice cream in Seattle can compare.“

“Molly moon’s is my favorite place to get ice cream, all there flavors. I wish they bring my favorite ice cream it strawberries 🍓 balsamic so delicious 🤤.“

“Some of the creamiest ice cream ever. I ordered a scoop of the iced vanilla latte and a scoop of the mint chip with chocolate chips and vanilla bean caramel. If you're a fan of lattes then get the iced vanilla latte ice cream with vanilla bean caramel on top! Both scoops were so good. My husband ordered the yeti ice cream and that was just a little tastier than the iced vanilla latte ice cream because of the pistachios in it.“

“Delicious vegan Blueberry Lavender icecream, the best vegan icecream I've ever had. The UW Honey was wonderful too!“

“I stopped by Frosty Barrel this morning. Shawn and the crew were amazing! I tried most of the ice creams. The pumpkin and mint cookies in cream were amazing. Dairy Free.“

“Molly moon’s is my favorite place to get ice cream, all there flavors. I wish they bring my favorite ice cream it strawberries 🍓 balsamic so delicious 🤤.“

“One of my favorite places in Seattle! Great beer selection, tons of non alcoholic options, rotating food trucks, lots of seating, dog and kid friendly. There is also a big snack selection, heaters in the outside area (under the awning, not the lot with the food trucks). Trivia on Wednesdays can be very full, so if you go to that then I recommend getting there early. You can bring your own food if you aren’t feeling the food truck as well, but corkage applies if you bring your own booze.“

“I recently visited Indigo Cow in Bellevue and tried their Hokkaido ice cream with the sweet potato crumble, and it was absolutely delightful! The Hokkaido ice cream had a rich, creamy texture and a subtle sweetness that felt indulgent without being overpowering. Pairing it with the sweet potato crumble added a warm, earthy sweetness and a lovely contrast in texture. The quality of ingredients really shines through in every bite. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their unique flavors!“

“One of the best espresso pulls in Seattle. They also make some of the best gelato. I’m pretty sure they make it themselves.“

“It’s all good and I would love to see more friends come here“

“Molly moon’s is my favorite place to get ice cream, all there flavors. I wish they bring my favorite ice cream it strawberries 🍓 balsamic so delicious 🤤.“

“Went during opening time and it was busier than i expected, however, the staff was very kind and they were very fast with our order. We got multiple drinks and even the Rice Roll. The drinks were delicious the roll was great and filling! The place was well decorated and it seemed to have very relax atmosphere. Overall my experience was very positive I highly recommend it :)“

“Friendly staff who will help you with choosing. I would come back over and over for the durian yogurt cubes. So good. Mango ones were good as well! A lot of Drinks can be made hot or cold. Great little sweet treat after eating at Malatang (build your own hot pot bowl)- both located in same bldg.“

“Loved the variety of flavors in their ice creams.“

“The owners are the nicest Chinese couple I’ve ever met! We were planning to get some fruit at a grocery store, but it was already too late. We went in this store around 9 pm, just to ask where the nearest open grocery was, and they kindly offered us some free fruit! We ended up buying a fancy yogurt bowl and left extra tip, but still, the amount of fruit they gave us far exceeded our expectations.

BTW, we tried the yogurt after getting back to the hotel, and it was sooo good! Totally refreshing! With a 4.7 rating and 250+ reviews, this place is a strong recommendation!

P.S. I know most people online are kind, but I’ve seen others take advantage of good hearted folks. What happened to us was unplanned, and we DID PAY EXTRA to show appreciation for their generosity. I sincerely hope no one will take advantage of their kindness by expecting free food or criticizing them for not offering more. I just wish that good people don’t have to suffer for being generous. Peace!“

“We came from Yakima Washington and my kids and myself loved it.“

“Great selection of vegan ice cream and frozen yogurt. Smoothie option also available using nut milks. Very tasty. The coffee flavored ice cream was not too overpowering with that flavor- just right. My favorite was the Oreo chocolate ice cream. Very smooth and great chocolate flavor with some Oreo crunch. Perfect for a warm day outside.“

“We’ve been going to Swirl for years. Love this family business and the great frozen yogurt. The owners are the sweetest people and have a very inviting shop. Wonderful place for kids to have birthday parties or just enjoy the ambience.“

“This location is always staffed with friendly folks! They also do huge scoops! It can get busy on weekend afternoons but mostly when we visit there’s a reasonable amount of customers and the wait is always minimal. Clean store, yummy ice cream!“

“My first time going to cookie heaven and I am pretty sure they almost had to drag me out of there. These are truly the most amazing cookies and creations. And it was hard to choose between just two or three. I am going to have to make sure I go back on an empty stomach. The staff is amazing, you know exactly what you're getting, and they are just so beautifully done. Love this place!“

“I don’t get the bad reviews.... This place is amazing. From the ice cream to the food. Of course it’s a bit pricey. It’s a small privately owned business. It’s not a chain. The owners are incredibly nice people. I’ve been going here for more than 20 years and I can’t say enough good things. It’s not their fault parking is limited. It’s Madison Park... They have continued to offer the best ice cream, food, and service even during unprecedented times. I bring my kids here, and have been going since I was a kid. Not many places left where you can share childhood memories with your children.“

“Scooper of a time! Every bite was iceolated perfection, so cool it left me chilling for more. Their mix-ins are solid, carving out flavors that are simply mint to be. The staff really conequered my heart with service that was unfrostgettable. If you’re looking for a sundae funday, this is the place to melt your worries away!“

“Molly Moons is always a great place to have a scoop of ice cream and this location is no exception!

I met here with some friends and we really enjoyed it. It's a new spot in town, but has a lot of cute things about it. The building it's in is actually the original ferry terminal from when the ferry system had first started. There is a beautiful view of the waterfront and several tables to sit at and enjoy the view. Molly moons has really turned this space into something beautiful!

The staff were very nice and friendly and the line was not too long. I was able to receive my ice cream quickly. I had the cookies and cream which was delicious!

For beautiful and breathtaking views while eating your delicious Molly Moon's, I highly recommend this Molly Moon's location. A great view and some of the most delicious ice cream in Seattle!“

“Awesome Ice cream trucks they even take cards and have scoops of ice cream with cones!“

“Great ice cream for the best price around. This is a completely volunteer-based ice cream shop where the ice cream is sold at cost and the student workers work for tips and good times. The atmosphere is cool, with games to play in the lounge area and usually a movie or music videos playing on a projector on the wall. They have scoops, cones, milk shakes, and fresh baked cookies (and cookie-ice cream sandwiches). A great place for a casual date, a study break, or to meet new friends.“

“4 stars, more like 3.5 😂😂😂😂😂. Mother dear and I split the black sesame sundae. It's no Nanas, but there were some pockets of #gold in there. The ratio of soft serve to syrup throughout was all off. Whatever those crunchy things were, they were great! Also, how about a few more chairs our here??“

“Today was my first time visiting this ice cream shop, and I tried a flavor I’d never had before—Thai tea. The flavor was so creamy, not too sweet, and the waffle cone was fresh and perfectly crispy. When I got to that drop of chocolate at the bottom, it was such a nice surprise! This is a unique little local shop, and I was pleasantly surprised to see they have arcade games and even beer. Next time, I’ll definitely stay a bit longer!“

“This place is AWESOME! Such a fun and inviting atmosphere paired with the friendliest team I’ve experienced in ages. The food is impeccable! You’ve gotta try it to understand. They’ve thoughtfully created an atmosphere that’s perfect for a group, date, solo or bring your grandma - it all goes! As a natural introvert, this is the ideal space for someone like me to meet others and have some vivacious conversations. I’ll continue to travel across three states to visit. If you’re closer to this local haunt, what are you waiting for??? 1,000 stars.“
