SEATTLE, Wash. — Salt & Straw Ice Cream announced it is opening a new scoop shop in Seattle’s Queen Anne neighborhood.
The Pacific-Northwest-based company plans to hire approximately 20 people from the area to run the shop.
A grand opening date has not been announced, but it will be located on Queen Anne Avenue North.
“Queen Anne is a special neighborhood,” said Kim Malek, Co-Founder and CEO in a news release. “Its rich history, unique charm, and deep sense of connection make it the perfect place for our next scoop shop location in Seattle. We’re so excited to join the Queen Anne community and bring a little joy to the neighborhood, one scoop at a time!”
Salt & Straw was founded by cousins Kim and Tyler Malek and has been around for 13 years. The family-run business is known for partnering with Washington-based favorites like Rachel’s Ginger Beer, Wunderground Coffee, Fran’s Chocolate, Métier Brewing, Boon Boona Coffee, Ezell’s Famous Chicken, and Beecher’s Cheese.
Salt & Straw has four other locations in Washington: Seattle’s Ballard and Capitol Hill neighborhoods, Totem Lake, and Vancouver.
