At long last, Salt and Straw has touched down in Seattle! The Portland-based ice cream chain has opened its first of two locations in the Emerald City. Store number one in Ballard is also the larger of the two. Spacious with gorgeous wood features including a bright outdoor mural, this ice cream shop is both warm and inviting. On the menu, Salt and Straw offers classic flavors as well as a slew of local flavors unique to the area. In the case of its Seattle shops, we are blessed with options including:

  • Coconut Mint Chip Cupcake
  • Rachel’s Raspberry Ginger Beer
  • Ellenos Yogurt & Matcha
  • Beecher’s Cheese with Peppercorn Toffee
  • Elm Coffee & Westland Whiskey
  • Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons
  • Almond Brittle with Salted Ganache
  • Double Fold Vanilla
  • Strawberry Honey Balsamic with Black Pepper
  • Honey Lavender
  • Chocolate Gooey Brownie

The menu at Salt and Straw will also change every so often with a new series of limited edition flavors. Currently, those flavors are part of a Seattle Chocolatier Series featuring the likes of Fran’s Chocolates, Theo, and Intrigue, to name a few.

Salt and Straw Ballard is located at 5420 Ballard Ave NW in Seattle, WA 98107.
