Awesome ice cream - Edit
My compulsive sweet tooth drags me here sometimes when I'm craving some refreshing plant-based ice cream. I've always loved every flavor I try here. I like getting a cone, but $2.50 is super pricey so I think I'll steer clear of getting the cone and stick with cups going forward. Sometimes there can be a line but generally it moves quickly. Staff always courteous and warm.

Delicious, many options, friendly staff - Edit
It's a fun little spot with several delicious options. They allow samples, so we tried the mountain berry magic, chocolate tahini supercookie, date shake, mint brownie, and jamocha chaga fudge. All were excellent, but we went with mountain berry, chocolate tahini, and jamocha chaga fudge. The waffle cone was thick and tasted very toasted, which was nice. Prices weren't too bad, $4.50 for 1 scoop, $7 for 2, but $2.50 for the cone. Worth a visit for sure though!

Intentional Ice Cream that will blow you away! - Edit
I feel like this plant based ice cream should be in it's own category! This 100% vegan ice cream shop makes the best quality ice cream! I LOVED the California Cabin, unique with pepper cardamom shortbread pieces! The other one we tried was chocolate fudge enriched with all kinds of goodness including oats and almonds, even mushroom powder! It is also sweetened with maple syrup instead of cane sugar. You can tell you are eating something of substance, not just a sweet dessert. The ice cream is phenomenal and it is a great place if you have food allergies. There are many choices for ice cream and you can either get them by the scoop or by the pint. Check out their website for their offerings!

The line outside on a weekday night said it all: delicious ice cream. The consistency is rich and creamy; the flavors are diverse and unusual. We tried: mint-chocolate brownie; chocolate jamoca; chocolate tahini. All were excellent.

YUMMY - Edit
The ice cream was DELICIOUS! Ordered the seasonal lemom chia seed flavor which also came with chunks of lemon cake on the inside. All of the ice creams are made with dates too, score!

Best Vegan Ice Cream - Edit
Frankie and Jo's is hands down the best vegan ice cream I've ever had. I had to persuade my girlfriend to pick up the rotating flavors for me while I was back on the East Coast so I could try them when I came to visit. My only complaint would be the pints are definitely pricey, but to use the quality of ingredients they do and to pay their staff real wages, I will gladly support a local business. I look forward to seeing their new flavors each month.
Read morePros: Fully vegan ice cream, Rotating monthly flavors, Multiple locations

Best vegan ice cream! - Edit
Frankie & Jo’s is our favorite celebratory ice cream spot. We usually head there for dessert after enjoying dinner at Plum Bistro and picking up a dozen donuts from Mighty O to take home. All three places are on the same block! They have lots of creative rotating flavors, which you can sample before making a decision. My favorite so far has been the beet rose sorbet!
Read moreMake sure to plan your visit ahead, because the line often snakes out the door and down the sidewalk!
Pros: Very creative flavors, All vegan , Close to other vegan restaurants
Cons: Long lines , Limited seating

10/10 Quality Goodness! - Edit
Let me start by saying, I am not into sweets. However, my husband has a sweet tooth. He had been begging me to go to Frankie & Jo's for quite sometime, so we went. Since that first stop in, we've gone at least 5 times! This is the BEST ice cream I've ever had! I've been vegan for a long time, so I don't remember dairy ice cream and I grew up on Rice Dream. I know many non-vegans that frequent here, and they have all agreed it's the BEST!
Read moreThe flavors are mind-blowing! The best is Turmeric Ginger, with little pieces of candied ginger, WOW! It's just so magical in my mouth. Next is the Tahini Chocolate, what's not to love about these two flavors together?! During the summer I had a Beet flavor, maybe Strawberry Beet? Not sure, but it was super refreshing. My favorite part is that they use dates and coconut sugar to sweeten. I use these at home to sweeten, and it's nice to be able to get the same! 100% vegan, quality ingredients and 10/10 flavors. We have hit the jackpot with this place!

Excellent vegan ice cream! - Edit
My favorite dessert spot in Seattle. The mainstay and monthly seasonal options are all creative, thoughtful, and delicious. Their vanilla ice cream is the best I’ve had, vegan or no! California Cabin remains my favorite flavor, but fingers are crossed for them to bring back their carrot cake seasonal flavor this year!

Really the best ice cream shop ever - Edit
This place is just superb. Can't go wrong with all the flavours. Really like the moon goo caramel sauce. Even the vanilla is something else. Tahini flavour and Jamocha chaga are top choices and they even have 'california cabin' which is pine flavoured. Try all the flavours and get a few scoops in the cone.

How have I never been here?! - Edit
I’ve been vegan almost 2 yrs and always lived in the Seattle area. I’ve heard rave reviews about it but didn’t believe the hype. BELIEVE IT! They had some interesting flavors and they were all absolutely delicious! I tasted quite a few and they were all great. The California Cabin is interesting because it says it has pine flavor. It tasted very light and definitely not overpowering. Plus it had big cookie dough chunks. I also got the Salted Caramel Ash. SO GOOD! This place is so much better than any other ice cream place.

Pros: All vegan, Interesting flavors, Not bland at all
Cons: Small place, not much seating

Incredible Ice Cream - Edit
Cones up this is the best ice cream I have ever eaten! Everything is plant-based, gluten-free & vegan. We tried every single flavor they had available. It was really tough to make a decision just to one flavor when they all are beyond delicious. For my waffle cone, I had the chocolate tahini cookie & My wifey had the mint brownie. Please open locations in New York!

Love the cone, not so much the ice cream - Edit
I absolutely love their vegan cone--not very traditional (crispy, buttery), more like a complex, chewier, nuttier cookie. The ice cream, for me, is a little gritty/grainy. Kudos to these folks for having lots of interesting flavors, including some of my favorites, like taro. It's tasty, but for me, ice cream is all about texture first, and so this is not for me.
Read morePros: Love their cones, Tons of interesting and unique flavors, 100% vegan
