Old school ice-cream parlor with 5 pinball machines and some sweet vintage arcade cabinets.Excellent spot for kids Birthday parties (bring quarters!) or an afternoon sweet treat. Flying Lion Brewery is next door, so if your kids are at a party, head over there for a pint!

Clearly frozen and refrozen several times, the consistency was ice crystalized and flavorings cheap. Service wasn't even friendly (bare minimum). I've been to both locations and issues are pervasive. With so many other good ice creams in town I cannot think of a reason to try this ever again.

Nice enough people I guess but I got very sick from their ice cream.

I usually have no problems here but the person scooping ice cream was so rude? She wanted me to tell her all the flavors and items I wanted at once but I had 8 orders, and they kept getting confused and got rude about it?I was telling her one by one so it would go smoothly and this was a problem for some reason.Very weird and hostile experience.

This place is a community staple in Columbia City! If you find yourself in the area and have never been to Full Tilt, it is an absolute must go place.The ice cream is phenomenal, the staff are always friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere of the place is great. They have a bunch of pinball machines and other games in the back, so it doubles as an arcade! Definitely a local business that is always worth supporting!Dietary restrictions: They have vegan ice creams made with coconut milk that are the best I've ever had!Kid-friendliness: This is a place local kids flock to year round.

First off, the smell when you enter the store, it's just horrible, it's like someone burnt something, but not a good thing, not sure I can describe it.Also, they accept cash, who accept cash these days? I mean, cash is dirty, full of bacteria, and they touch it and then touch the icecream!

All the flavors that I've tried here are always so good and creamy! We went almost near closing and they had a few waffle cones left that they were going to throw away. Instead of throwing it away they gave it to us for free which was so nice! We will definitely be coming back here soon. The ambiance is that it's like a arcade ice cream shop. Ube kid scoop with waffle cone - ube is always my go to ice cream here with a kid scoop since they actually scoop a big amount for a kid scoop. The waffle cone comes with a nice surprise (whopper candy) at the very end of the cone.

Unimpressed with the ice cream but it's a nice hangout location for a short while.

The "Blue Moon" ice cream is a bit more denim in color than it should be for true "Blue Moon", but that doesn't effect the flavor, and I'm not complaining! I'm just happy to find this great and rare flavor outside of Michigan!Update 7/16/2023:Went to Full Tilt on our way through Seattle today and the "Blue Moon" was the correct "Smurf blue" color. My husband had the "Ube" and I had the "Blue Moon". Both of our ice creams had great flavor, but there were "waxy" chunks in both. They left your mouth with a waxy coating that especially stuck to the roof of your mouth. Not sure what that was about. Never had that happen before.

Best ice cream place in Seattle area. Great staff and great selection of flavors.

Full Tilt is the reigning champion of good ice cream for both traditional and vegan ice cream. I am lactose intolerant and so usually skip the dairy while my husband doesn't. We both love Full Tilt! All of the ice cream is delicious and they range from time honored favorites to creative new flavors. There are pints of ice cream for sale and you can get a pint packed on the spot if they don't already have a pint available.They have 4 rotating vegan flavors at a time that are always good and usually have me debating which to pick. It's never been the case that I've walked away without ice cream because it was sold out or not something I wanted. The vegan ice cream is so creamy and smooth!The employees have been great so far, gracefully handling our internal debate over which flavor to pick and our excitement at finding Green River soda in the fridge.There are arcade games in the back, comic books in the front, and a fridge full of different and sometimes hard to find sodas. To Full Tilt: Can you pretty please consider doing a vegan Thai ice tea flavor? My husband loves the classic version and I am so ready to love a dairy free version!

Great spot for kids parties! Really good ice cream too, salted caramel was perfectly (not too) salty (imo Molly Moon's is way too salty)
