I absolutely loved the freshly made waffle cones, and the Cookies & Cream ice cream was delicious!…read more I do have one suggestion that I hope management will consider. I looked for an email address so I could share this feedback privately, but since I couldn't find one, I'm leaving it here instead. For hygiene purposes, I recommend having attendants use a tissue, napkin, or gloves when handling waffle cones rather than touching them with bare hands. During my visit, the same employee was operating the cash register while also preparing ice cream, which meant they were handling both money and food. I believe this small change would help reinforce good food-handling practices and provide customers with an even greater experience. Thank you for the wonderful ice cream and I forward to visiting again!

How do you get your husband to buy you ice-cream? Make him jealous with FOMO of course!…read more A few weeks ago I was craving Salt & Straw. I said to my husband, I'd really like to go to Salt & Straw this weekend. He said he heard me, but he got lazy and we ended up at a Yogurt Time instead. For anyone who has been to Yogurt Time, and Salt & Straw, you know that Yogurt Time is not a substitute for Salt & Straw. It could be a bandaid. A really cheap, generic brand one. Not even the Band-aid brand, but the CVS brand. And to him, he didn't think anything of it. But I, of course, thought otherwise. I wondered: What ever happened to going to Salt & Straw? Why did we get Yogurt Time, as if it's the same thing?! When there is no comparison what-so-ever. I didn't want to nag. And I realized: Why am I waiting for him to take me to Salt & Straw? I'm a grown-a&* empowered woman. I can take my own self to Salt & Straw whenever I want. And that, I did. I got the Coffee and Love Nuts (my first time with this flavor). And holy heck was that good. That night, I told my husband about my treat. I even took a picture to show him the deliciousness that was Coffee & Love Nuts. (See attached) "Why did you go to Salt & Straw with out me????" He asks I recounted the Yogurt Time. Of course he tried to defend himself. The next day, he asks me "Do you want to go to Salt & Straw?" Not because I wanted it but because now he is craving it too. We went and he got the Coffee & Love Nuts and the Gooey Brownie one. We went again, the next week. And the next week. And so on. I know, some may call this manipulation. But sometimes guys just don't know what they're missing until you go to some other Love Nut. (Just saying.. lol) Anyhow... Salt & Straw... OG from Portland. Such high quality ice cream known for their strange flavors. I will have to admit, the strange flavors can be hit or miss. So please sample before getting. I love their creativity. I love their quality. I love that they're not Yogurt Time. Hey, Yogurt Time has its time and place. But Salt & Straw? Whole other universe. Peace out.
