Their Greek yogurt is unbelievably…read morecreamy and smooth--almost like gelato--but with the refreshing tanginess that makes it feel lighter. We sampled several flavors and ended up ordering Seattle Fog, Ube Coconut, Lemon Poppy Seed, and Matcha. Every flavor was distinct and delicious. * Seattle Fog was my favorite--smooth, aromatic, and subtly infused with Earl Grey tea, making it unique without being overly sweet. * Ube Coconut had a beautiful natural purple color and a creamy tropical flavor that wasn't overpowering. * Lemon Poppy Seed was bright, refreshing, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of citrus. * Matcha had a rich, earthy flavor that wasn't bitter and paired beautifully with the tangy yogurt base.

I'm visiting Seattle from Los Angeles, and this was the first coffee shop I tried on my trip. I…read moreordered a 12 oz hot mocha latte. About a minute after getting my drink, I took a sip and was surprised that it was cold--not even lukewarm, but actually cold. I didn't go back to ask for a remake because there were several people in line behind me and I didn't want to wait. Instead, I ended up microwaving it when I got back to my Airbnb. The latte itself was decent and had a strong espresso flavor, but the mocha syrup was way too sweet for my taste. I think it would have been much better if it had been about half as sweet. The price was also pretty high for a 12 oz latte. The customer service was disappointing. The young woman who helped me came across as rude and seemed like she didn't want to be there. That's especially unfortunate for a business located in the middle of a major tourist area. As for the drink, I'm not sure how a hot latte ends up being served cold, but it definitely shouldn't happen. I also sampled the tiramisu gelato, which was overly sweet and didn't taste very authentic. Overall, I regret spending the time, money, and calories here. There are too many great coffee shops in Seattle to settle for an experience like this.

They had about 20 different flavors. There were waffles, cones and cups available. The menu also had floats, roots beers and shakes. One person was handing out the ice cream, and another person was at the register. The store was popular, as there was a line to get ice creams. We waited about 5 minutes for our turn. My daughter picked the cotton candy flavor. It was $7 for a scoop. The checkout process was quick. The ice cream tasted okay to me. It wasn't that creamy or dense. I had much better flavored cotton candy ice cream elsewhere.

The staff is kind and is more than happy to let you sample to your heart's desire. There is seating both inside and out. I am sure on summer evenings this place is insanely busy, but on a Monday at approximately 2PM, I didn't wait in a line at all. They had fun summer flavors such as apricot crisp, blueberry cheesecake, cherry chunk, and strawberry sorbet. I tried two different flavors, and both were delicious. Both flavors were extremely creamy, even the fruity flavored ones. I started with the strawberry sorbet. It was refreshing. The strawberry really shined through and was extremely fresh tasting. I feel like strawberry flavoring can sometimes come off as artificial, but I did not have that experience with this ice cream. The second flavor I sample, and my favorite one of the day was the honey lavender. It felt like you were walking through an organic lavender field. As always, cities have expensive ice cream, but I am just a girl, so I will get a sweet treat.

Great place for ice cream!…read more It looks like they make their ice cream here because they have a little viewing window showing them dispensing something into a container (looks like a giant tub of soft serve).

There's one display case that showed nothing but chocolates. Like a See's candy store but without the employees wearing white shirts with black trimming. And it seems all the store on the block sell little things like magnets, carrying bags, pins, or stuffed items. There's a table inside but it's pushed into the corner, so if you're a little big don't be eyeing the chocolates. You can sit with you back facing against it ;p Overall four stars. It's a nice small store that sees plenty of foot traffic. Wish, I could give it five but (and through no fault of her own) service was slow. She was there covering the whole area and it got busy. Don't forget to tip. She worked hard.

So 7.50 for 2 very small Carmels. I'm all for supporting small business, but no prices listed kinda made me feel they gouge me on prices. And being it was a tourist location I guess that's what they do. The 2 girls working maybe just having a bad day. I was the only customer in the shop. But neither wanted to look up and help me at first. But at least the Carmel was good.

There are plenty of ice cream shops throughout Pike's Place. The Shy Giant Frozen Yogurt is a good option with no wait and affordable prices!
