Some may think of me as an ice cream snob, I just say I run a lot so why not?! Here are THE BEST places to grab a cone this summer in Spokane, Washington.
This one comes HIGHLY suggested (by me). This quaint ice cream shop on the South Hill (and in Kendall Yards) amidst houses always has a line and for good reason! They have fun themes (like Game of Thrones when we went) and delicious ice cream — what more could you want?
This unassuming 50’s-fashion grill is the best place in Spokane for a malt. If you’ve never had a malt, because apparently they are more a Midwestern thing, I definitely suggest trying one at this Spokane favorite. For around $10 (bring cash) you can get a burger, fries and a milkshake – now that’s a win!
This one is technically in the Valley, but they have A TON of flavors from which to choose. Their service was also great. The perfect post-treat after hiking Iller Creek!
I was bummed to see Brain Freeze Creamery and Sweet Peaks not make it. Dang 2020 covid pandemic (I don’t really know if that is what to blame, but I am going with it). I definitely think Spokane’s ice cream scene isn’t great (like we need WAY MORE local ice cream shops), but the few we have are AMAZING!
I will say, if you find yourself craving a milkshake in Spokane Valley, I would definitely check out the Thrifty Scottsman or Ron’s Drive In!
Do you have a favorite ice cream shop in Spokane that rivals one of these 3? Let me know and maybe I will add it to the list!
I’ve got messy hair and a thirsty heart.
I overshare my life, and have an ultra-expressive personality.
Elphaba from Wicked is kind of my alter-ego as I am always trying to forge my own path and make a difference in the World, somehow, someway, while also constantly criticizing myself and trying to become the better version of me.
Quality conversations + coffee come easy to me.
I’ve never had an issue connecting naturally with others (probs because I can go on and on about my life story, not that it is interesting, I just process externally, anyone else?!)
