Cool Moon Ice Cream



Located in the glitzy, touristy Peal District is a gem of an ice cream place called Cool Moon Ice Cream. The ice cream is all natural, homemade from the finest quality ingredients, and I dream of the luscious flavors they offer! The flavors are inventive and delicious, with something to please even the pickiest palate (all are listed and detailed on their website for reference). They are also unique to Portland, with just one location (I love supporting these establishments). They have indoor and outdoor Adirondack chair seating, but I prefer to grab a cone and walk the surroundings streets or grab a spot on a nearby bench across the street at the Jamison Square fountain (great people and animal watching, lol).

After a weekend of over-indulging, something on the light side sounded perfect. We chose the Lemon-Marionberry, and it was divine. Creamy and sweet combined for a wonderfully refreshing treat. I also HIGHLY recommend the Cherry Almond Chip and the Butter Pecan from previous visits :)

Cool Moon is also easy on the wallet. Right now, they have a “Spring Pint-o-Rama”, where if you buy one cup or cone you can purchase a pint for just $3.95. They also do “Happy Hour Pints,” where pint-sized containers of your favorites are sold for just $4 from 4-6pm, every day. What deals! I highly recommend taking a stroll down to Cool Moon then next time your sweet tooth attacks. To add to the greatness of this place, they are open Noon-10pm every day – try finding a quality yogurt place that matches those hours!
