The Best Ice Cream Shops in Portland, Oregon - Eater Portland

"While a New Zealand-imported blending machine called the Little Jem takes center stage at Nico Vergara’s shop, the resulting soft-serve textured ice cream is Oregon through-and-through: Willamette Valley Pie Co. berries are swirled into Umpqua vanilla ice cream or nondairy Cosmic Bliss to order. Tropical Thursdays switch up the shop’s menu to fruit flavors like mango, pineapple, and banana. For a final flourish, opt for a dusting of rainbow sprinkles, toasted coconut flakes, or graham cracker dust or a drizzle of chamoy." - Michelle Lopez, Janey Wong
