Ice Cream Review Roundup Near UW Seattle 🍦

I’ve been using Beli (the fun version of Yelp) to log Seattle’s eats lately, and let’s kick it off with ice cream! 🥇 Many Bennies 📍Near Gas Works Park | Fruit Ice Cream Fresh fruit swirled with vanilla ice cream made to order—it’s like an upgraded fruit milkshake 🥤, super refreshing yet rich with creamy dairy flavor! My combo: Blackberry + Vanilla + Mango 🫐🥭 The blackberry and mango have chunky, biteable fruit pieces—such a delightful texture! The vanilla acts as the perfect base, blending all the flavors seamlessly, no single one overpowering the rest. Bonus: The ice cream comes with cute little googly eyes 🧿—so Instagram-worthy! ✅ Perfect for: Craving something sweet without the heaviness, summer days, post-picnic/walk treats 🥈 Hellenika Cultured Creamery 📍Inside Pike Place Market | Greek Yogurt Gelato Greek yogurt gelato is such a unique twist—ultra creamy texture with a bright, refreshing yogurt tang 🥛! Highly recommend: Ube Coconut 🧁🥥 The ube flavor is bold and naturally sweet (no artificial syrupy taste!), and the coconut crunch adds amazing texture. I loved it so much I grabbed three tubs to take home 🛒! 📌 Pro tip: They pop up at the farmer’s market near UW every Saturday—super convenient for students! 🥉 Sweet Alchemy 📍UW Ave | Massive Flavor Selection Top-tier quality all around—their sweet cream base is chef’s kiss: light, fresh, and never cloyingly sweet 🍨! Must-try flavors: Sweet Cream, London Fog (earl grey) ☕, Darkside (rich dark chocolate) 🍫, Banana Pudding 🧈 They also have occasional limited-edition flavors—like Korean rice wine (makgeolli) 🍶! ⚠️ Con: Prices are a bit steep after the hike—save this one for when you’re craving premium ice cream ✅ Perfect for: Trying unique flavors, ice cream runs with friends along the Ave 🧋 Seattle Best Tea 📍UW Ave | Classic Boba Shop A long-standing staple on the Ave—they offer FREE unlimited toppings for boba 🧊 (total TP Tea dupe!)! Their regular milk tea is on the sweeter side, but their ice cream tea has a huge flavor variety—no generic "sweet milk tea" taste here! ✅ Perfect for: Boba lovers who want to DIY their drink, craving boba without the risk of a bad order Drop your hidden gem ice cream spots in the comments 📝! I’ll try them all and add them to my Beli list—promise I’ll gush about the great ones and keep it real about the duds 🫶 #SeattleIceCream #UWSeattle #SeattleFood #UWLife #CollegeEats #SeattleEats #IceCreamReview #BeliApp #SeattleFoodie
