it's all about ignorant politics here- I wouldn't be surprised if they taint orders for customers they get conservative "vibes" from. they cater to criminals then cry about crime
The owner and staff are the worst. Even simple people can’t mess up ice cream yet these people managed to do so.
Rude customer service when I went in there. Makes sense from there brainless owner. Hope they go out of business soon!

Molly Moon's Homemade Ice Cream Madrona is a small, walk-up window spot that is popular and often busy, attracting lines even during quiet times. The ice cream is highly praised for being creamy, refreshing, and among the best in the world, with many reviewers comparing it favorably to gelato and other high-quality ice creams. Notable flavors like sweet cream and Yeti are described as perfect and delicious, making it a favorite for those seeking tasty and well-made ice cream. The waffles are fantastic, the nuts are toasted just right, and the cookies are tasty, adding to the overall positive experience.
However, some drawbacks are mentioned. The whipped cream frequently seems old, sour, thick, or yellowish, which detracts from the overall quality, despite the excellent ice cream. The small size of the scoops, especially for the salted caramel, is noted as costly, with prices around $5 for a kid's scoop or even higher due to inflation, sometimes reaching $7.67 for a single scoop, which some find expensive for the portion size. Flavors like mint with brownie and strawberry are described as light in flavor, with the salted caramel tasting more like coffee ice cream and lacking the expected caramel richness. The flavor experience can vary, and some find the salted caramel inferior to other versions like Salt & Straw.
Despite these issues, the service is appreciated for being friendly and helpful, and the shop's cozy, unique vibe makes it a charming neighborhood spot. Overall, Molly Moon's Madrona offers outstanding ice cream worth seeking out, especially for those who enjoy creamy textures and flavorful toppings, though some may find the prices and whipped cream quality areas for improvement.
