SEATTLE — A popular Pacific Northwest ice cream chain will open its newest Seattle location on Friday.
Salt and Straw will open its doors Aug. 29 in the Queen Anne neighborhood at 11 a.m. There will be special giveaways for the first 50 guests, and the establishment partnered with a well-known Seattle chef in the lead up to their first day of service.
The first 50 people in line will get a complimentary cold brew from neighboring Cafe Vitta and a Salt and Straw tote bag “filled with products from some of their favorite local collaborators.”
Salt and Straw joined forces with Ethan Stowell to offer two exclusive menu items at How to Cook a Wolf, Stowell’s beloved restaurant just across the street from the new location. From Aug. 22-28, an Affogato made with the Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons ice cream from Salt and Straw along with a How to Cook a Wolf Ice Cream Sandwich with the Arbequina Olive Oil flavor from Salt and Straw were available.
The new scoop shop also will have a special back-to-school offer from September 2-5, where visitors can get a complimentary kids’ scoop when they show a school ID or wear school merch if they purchase a double scoop.
Salt and Straw says this is one of four openings in the Seattle area in 2025, as a Redmond location opened up in July and two other locations in Seattle are coming “later this year.”
Salt and Straw was founded by Kim and Tyler Malek in Portland, and now has locations in eight states.
