Being a West Seattle native this place has been a staple in my life since I was a small child and thats a long damn time. It really has not changed much over the years thankfully, I can walk in the door and the smell takes me right back to my chilhood when they had the open barrels of swedish fish and other fine candies that I loved as a kid. The deli meat here is better then anywhere else in Seattle and the service is great. I can go away for years at a time (which I do ONLY when living out of state) when I come back they know me by name and ask where the hell I've been. There are not many things in life that stay the same Husky is one that does. And now I look like thier name... Husky Yay for Ice Cream and other goodies that make my ass fatter. read more

Its good to know people are reppin' the purple and gold in the middle of the junction. And to be doing it with some pastrami, pesto and some other stuff, good to go! I had the Rueben, it was decent. Not sure why I decided to go for the thousand island instead of mayo/must. but that wasn't a good pick! Go, order one of their pesto chicken sandwiches and get a scoop of ice cream on a waffle cone and you're good to go! read more

Awesome place for ice cream. The ice cream is hella bomb. I tried the coffee oreo and its perfect for someone who love coffee and oreo. Ice cream are fresh, milky. read more

See all

The BEST Homemade Ice Cream and made to order sandwiches in West Seattle - maybe Washington! It's a great little deli and great place to find a culinary themed gift, or some ingredient you could not find elsewhere. Very Friendly People! read more

After years of flawless service I have to sadly criticize the service my wife and I received today. We ordered two sandwiches to go. For one, the order took nearly 20 minutes in a near-empty store with four employees. For two, we arrived home to find one sandwich was made wrong. I called the deli and the asked for a new sandwich be made. The nice young man who took the call apologized yet when my friend went to pick up the replacement sandwich the counter staff gave her needless attitude, and THEN proceeded to try to ring us up for the replacement! Please tell me the staff today will not be there another day. We have always received stellar service there in the last six years. read more

Great sandwiches and ice cream. When I come in I always get the turkesh delight. The staff is always friendly and helpful. I wish I didn't live so far away from Seattle or I would be here all the time. read more

Husky Deli - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I'm a big fan of West Seattle, so each time I visit, I try to find a slice of the neighborhood I haven't seen before. Husky Deli is a perfect example of what Seattle is all about. I went there on a rainy day, and found myself surrounded by local treats and warm sandwiches. After ordering the adult grilled cheese, I started swimming in a dream of melty goodness and a bit of cheese and fat related guilt. It was oh so worth it though. There are grocery products for you locals as well, but for the traveler, you should focus your time on the deli menu. You will be happy you did. read more

I have to give this place 2 stars. It's my favorite local sandwich place, and the ice cream is good too. But it's inconsistent. I came in to get a BALTIC, my go-to sandwich and it always varies but at least they give you a full sandwich's worth of ingredients. This time I got a sandwich with less than half the amount of ingredients I usually get. It's not worth 12 bucks if I get a sandwich with 6 or less. Knowing that next time I have no idea what to expect when I order the same thing makes me not want to come back read more

A west Seattle staple! The Husky Deli has a great ice cream selection (and they serve large scoops!) as well as sandwiches, candy, meats, and honestly anything else deli related that you'd ever need. You can find tons of international foods here too. Friends of mine have catered from here for events and have had great experiences too. read more

We've all tried coffee ice cream. We've all tried cookies 'n cream ice cream. But, how about COFFEE OREO ice cream?? Let me tell ya... it was YUM. I've only tried the ice cream here (coffee oreo and blackberry cheesecake, which was equally yummy), but I'm looking forward to going back to try a sandwich. read more

A landmark of West Seattle. Best ice cream around. Excellent sandwiiches, and shelves full of all those items you can't find anywhere else, - everything from hot sauces to rare olive oils and olives. Let's hope its here for another 100 years. read more

If you want delicious ice cream, good sandwiches, fantastic soups, and an interesting selection of sauces, candy and other stuff, you MUST visit Husky. My husband and I moved to Seattle in 2003, and soon discovered the Junction (a couple of miles from where we live) and Husky Deli. Love the ice cream! I've had several flavors (my husband tends to stick to Cookie Dough and Oreo Cookie), but my love is Swiss Chocolate Orange, an old fave from when I lived in California and the small chain of Swenson's Ice Cream still existed. Husky is definitely one of our default places. If we don't want to make dinner, are only moderately hungry, don't want to spend a lot, or it's a weekend and we need lunch NOW we will call in an order to Husky for sandwiches and soup. Or we'll go over there and sometimes eat in. Note: their soups change every day, and apparently there is one lady who makes all of them. I have never had a bad soup, and some are definitely 5 star. I think you can find out one day or so ahead of time what may be on the menu for soups (just call them and ask). Some soups are very popular and will go quickly (lemon chicken and rice is one). My favorite is definitely the Sherry Mushroom. If you are a mushroom lover, this soup is a MUST! Loads of mushrooms (the most mushrooms in a soup I've ever had) in a very flavorful sherry based broth (this is not a cream soup, which I appreciate). Staff is generally extremely friendly, and you can ask questions of them, even when busy. Check out the cold drinks in the back of the store, just pick your own. They vary a bit. They also carry a good selection of candy, some in deli cases (truffles and such) and also both local Seattle chocolates and imported stuff. They are open every day, but check their website for more info. (And note that in spite of the colors and name, they are not associated with the UW). read more

I think this deli is cool to have in West Seattle because they have a monster assortment of interesting, unique, and main stream edibles. Sandwiches, ice creams, soups, cheeses, chocolates, sauces, oils, and STUFF. You will find something here. You won't be disappointed. Super nice owner, too. read more

Have tried the ruben panini and grilled chicken pesto panini and both were amazing. They also have a lot of varieties of ice cream. i've only tried vanilla and coffee and both were yum. They have a lot of random candies too, so while you wait for your sandwich make sure to look around. read more

Husky deli has delicious sandwiches. I go here like once a week! I also get a lot of deli meats and cheeses from the deli. The homemade ice cream is amazing! My favorite flavor is Carmel pecan fudge. My wife's favorite is the French orange which tastes like a creamsicile and the peppermint flavor which is like a creamy vanilla with crunchy peppermint candy in it. They also make homemade wafflecones. They give huge scoops too. Try this place!!!! read more

There's definitely a lot of flavors here. The salted caramel was definitely better than most places i tried so far. We got the Oreo mint and husky flakes which was delicious. It has a buttery creamy texture to it which is different from other ice cream places. Portion size was pretty generous, but $8 for 2 cones is a little on the higher side for me. Definitely can get better ice cream for lower prices some where else. Probably would come back if i was in the area but wouldn't come here just to get ice cream read more

Can't go wrong with mint and butter pecan....although the chocolate brownie was is pretty good, considering I'm not a huge fan of chocolate normally. Waffle cone and two scoops of ice cream is prob 3 servings of ice cream:) read more

A West Seattle institution. It's a good, family-run deli that has survived the test of time, and continues to thrive in the Alaska Junction. Great sandwiches, and the ice cream is epic. Sure, it's a little "rustic," but that's totally part of the charm as far as I'm concerned. The chocolate section has lots to look at and of course, order. Fun place to browse. read more

I love this place. Their ice cream and deli sandwiches are very delicious and never get dissapointed. I can find a lot of great european stuffs in their racks. This place is one of the best family owned shop in Seattle! read more

My fav ice cream place. Known the owners for years. A must see in West seattle. The assortment of European candies is fantastic. The ice cream selection is a great time for a hot summer day! read more

We stopped here so a friend could pick up some takeaway before his flight back home. He chose their grilled veggie sandwich with fresh mozzarella, pesto, smoked tomato, mushrooms, and onion. He was pleased with his choice and said that it was quite filling. My husband headed inside with our friend and they both marveled at the dizzying array of candy. They stock an array of deli meats, cheeses, and glass bottled sodas. If I lived locally, I'd imagine hitting up this place for some treats now and again. They also have handmade ice cream and have been making their own ice cream since 1932! Evidently their name comes from their ice cream cones that were sold in the early 30s. Those pre-made "Husky" cones, similar to a Nutty Buddy, allowed the family to survive through the depression. In 1937 the Millers named the store after those cones and still make all of that beautiful ice cream! read more

Now that's some good ice cream! Came here on a hot summer's night, and was not disappointed by the scoop I received. Can't go wrong with most of the options here, though the line does get long and move somewhat slowly during peak hours. Highly recommend read more

I visited Husky Deli from LA over a year ago and haven't been able to stop thinking about their sandwiches since! They also have an incredible array of British & Australian candy which made my day! read more

5 Stars for the delicious ice cream and for having a purple/gold website! Go Huskies! This place...is a treasure chest. And it holds a dear spot in my heart. The people are genuinely nice, and they have aisles upon aisles of European goodies! And have I mentioned the delicious ice cream? Flavors including Raspberry Decadence, Coffee Oreo and Mocha Almond Fudge...ice cream made by the very people that owns this place. This is the perfect stop for a quick lunch (they offer great sandwiches), an ice cream cone (or a pint to take home), and a quick look around the store. Wine & chocolates...what more can I ask for? read more

An old friend of mine introduced this place to me last year and today was the first time back and the ice cream was just as delicious as always. Including aisles upon aisles of hard to find European treats, it was the homemade mocha ice cream that caught the attention of this particular chunky Asian kid. Also, towards the rear of the store, there is an assortment European wines that are a bit harder to find in the more widely known neighborhood stores such as Metropolitan Market or Whole Foods. Though probably not as notable as La Buona Tavola in downtown, the wine selection here is a good alternative when trying to find a wine that is a bit out of the ordinary. Probably should have grabbed a decent lunch before having dessert, but we grabbed a roast beef and provolone sandwich and a tuna melt before heading over to the nearby park to skip rocks. Though we should have picked a nicer day to go to the park, that sort of weather is hard to come by in Seattle so we just decided to tough it out. read more

I absolutely adore this place. I've been coming here since I was a kid, back when my go-to ice cream was Husky's licorice. Since I've gotten older, my tastes have changed, but it's still such a treat when I can grab a scoop of their coffee Oreo, Oreo cookie, or raspberry cheesecake ice cream. Their service is fast and friendly, even if there's sometimes a line. I also love the actual deli part of the store... there's always a lot of high quality meats and cheeses to choose from. They also have a fun selection of international foods and yummy chocolates. If you're ever in West Seattle, you must stop in to Husky Deli! read more

This place is a gem. Homemade ice cream (with a variety of interesting flavors that are sure to please), delicatessen, treats from around the world, etc, etc, etc. This is a cool place! My fiancee was pleasantly surprised to find a lot of British candies and chocolates in the back as I was just happily perusing all of the different items. We ended up having some sandwiches made and then grabbing some ice cream. It was good. This place isn't super cheap, but then again I'm not from Seattle, or a big city for that matter. My idea of cheap is the dollar/quality menu at any fast food joint. read more

Husky's is an unlikely place for ice cream. Their small creamery is tucked in the bottom left hand corner of their store. With over 25 flavors, they have many options to choose from. I ordered the salted caramel both times that I went. The ice cream was so smooth that you could taste the salt crystals dissolve on your tongue as the caramel swirls hit your taste buds at the same time. Some of the other flavors that had fruit swirls in them were too sweet for me, but I think it would be the perfect flavor for someone else! Husky's also makes homemade waffle cones from their own waffle irons. They are huge! Smaller waffle cones and cake cones are available as a vessel who want something smaller or for less calories. read more

I wanted to try the ice cream here since I heard many great things. The line pretty long, but the line moves quickly. Overall, the ice cream tastes pretty average. I wouldn't drive to West Seattle for it. If I was in the area and craving ice cream, I would definitely stop by. I really like how they have a lot of flavors and portions are huge! For me, the kid scoop is good enough. I got the praline flavor. I like finding the sugared pecans with every lick. read more

I am still in shock that it took us so long to go here. This is such a neat place! besides the delicious ice cream and perfect stools to sit and eat them and people watch, there's all kinds of sauces, cheeses, wines, beers, and jams, oh, and a bunch of candy and chocolates. They carry lots of local products too, in case you're in a pinch to get something before traveling afar and need a gift. Nom nom nom. p.s. did not get to try the deli. parking: might have some extra offstreet in the back read more

Husky Deli is a great old fashioned deli! The service is friendly and prompt. Besides a large selection of made-to-order sandwiches, they also have a very nice beverage section with various types of root beers and old fashioned sodas. Although I was just there for a quick lunch, I couldn't help but notice the large ice cream counter, old fashioned candy counter, and corner of various beer and wine. The prices are reasonable too! A big sandwich costs between $5 and $7 bucks. If you are a lighter eater, you can even order half sammies. read more

Great choices of ice cream, best is scummy Seattle, just be careful you dont get shot while in Seattle by some Perp the crappy DA didnt charge after cops made arrest. read more

The soup here for lunch is pretty good. The line tends to be really long and it can take forever to get a sandwich. I like the ice cream for the most part. They had blueberry ice cream once three years ago, which I liked very much, but I've looked often ever since and I've never found it again. I've asked at the counter each time if maybe it'll be back someday, but nobody ever knows. Sad. read more

I hope the in-store experince is better than the delivery. They are never on time and always 30-45 minutes late! Our company has used them twice (never again!). They also only left plates for 40 when we odered food for 100 people. They need to get out of the delivery business. By the time their food gets to us, it's sub-par. I'd rather go back to Mel's or a stupid Subway for our sandwiches. read more

4 words: coffee oreo ice cream!! The best I've ever had, period! They don't skimp on the oreos which is key. They sell a big tub of it for like $7 too so you can keep it in your freezer and secretly pig out on it in the privacy of your own home. Other than the ice cream, I've come here for items I can't get in other stores like proscuitto and pancetta by the pound (way cheaper than buying it pre-packaged at grocery stores). And they have a great selection of candy by the pound and good wine choices too. I usually don't associate with anything "Husky" but you can't go wrong here. read more

My mind swims at the crazy notion that Husky Deli doesn't have 5 stars. It is the best in Seattle for TWO CATEGORIES: deli and ice-cream. I dare you to try and find somewhere better. You'll go insane trying. They've got a fantastic selection of meats and cheeses for fresh made sandwiches or cold-cuts to take home. Husky has the best trained "slicers" in the city. They carefully slice every slice and then carefully lay every slice with OCD precision onto butcher block paper. Thinner meats or softer cheese will get a piece of paper between every slice. This is nothing like the shredded mess of deli meat many Seattle shops slice up. Then there's the ice-cream. OMFG. Like 30 something flavors and not a hipster freak out flavor in the bunch. Just really solid stuff. The final note, where Husky isn't leading the city but maybe winning the customer's hearts is the staff. They're a locally owned business and many of the employees are part of the owner's family. Everybody is super friendly and helpful. Having moved to San Francisco, I miss Husky Deli. read more

two words... coffee oreo! I love this stuff. Very delish and always a huge serving. Definitely my spot on a free day! read more

Emmmmmm Husky Deli ice cream....... Emmmmmm! Our youngest lil' dude made two goals in his first soccer game on Sunday and this is where he wanted to celebrate! A six year old requested a cone of their ice cream over anywhere else on the west side....... enough said! I picked something with Rum in it and wow did it ever taste like it. I worried I might get drunk :-) lol read more

Has the best ice cream hands down in Seattle. Anyone that has been to Husky Deli would know that! Waffle cones or in a bowl, sugar cone as well. Big scoops of ice cream. And they have deli food that is very good as well. You can get chocolate and candy there, drinks (non hard stuff though). And a great place to work for as I did when I was in High School. read more

I like the sandwiches, but honestly nothing that special. In terms of small neighborhood shops like that of West Seattle sure its pretty good, but you can find better. If you come in those really busy hours, be prepared to wait 10-20 mins for sandwiches/ice cream. Overall not bad, but nothing to write home about. read more
