The Cookie Counter

The Cookie Counter is definitely worth your time and money. Prices are on par with most of the ice cream shops in the area. Quality is high and there's a wide selection besides just ice cream. It's all vegan, but *just as good* as non-vegan options. They also have a lot of gluten-free items, so no one has a reason not to go! I ordered a double-scoop waffle cone (Mint Chip and Macadamia Elation). The (gluten-free) waffle cone tasted great and earns my stamp of approval. It was large, crispy, and did not leak. I'd describe it as "light," as opposed to the heavy and buttery (but delicious) waffle cones at Molly Moon's or Parfait. The (vegan) ice cream also felt light and smooth, and the scoop size was generous. At a glance it seemed that it would melt quickly due to the soft texture, but my worries were unfounded and I didn't have any issues. I sampled a snickerdoodle during my visit. The cookie was very good with a nice texture and great flavor. I'm definitely looking forward to trying one of their ice cream cookie sandwiches during a future visit. Update 5/24/2017: I had to go back to try a sundae. Now I'm convinced that The Cookie Counter has the best sundaes in Seattle. The baked goods, unsurprisingly, really elevate them to another level. The price looks high ($8), but you definitely get what you pay for. These are big, awesome, and definitely worth it. I had The Blondie, which comes with a peanut butter blondie, two scoops of chocolate ice cream (I subbed Bumpy Road), hot fudge and peanut butter shell, whipped cream, and a cherry. I can't wait to try the Mint Condition next time. :D

One of the best places to stop for a vegan treat in Seattle! The menu is full of choices: ice cream, muffins, cookies, brownies, cinnamon rolls, brunch, sammies, shakes, sundaes, and so much more! Delicious food at a local shop with awesome owners and employees.

I just had an absolutely delicious mint sundae! Hard to believe it was dairy-free. I honestly couldn't tell. The shortbread was soft and the raspberry frosting was tangy. I would totally come here again... Maybe too often to be good for me. Good thing I live in a different city. 😄

Such a cute little shop right on a main strip in uptown Seattle. My boyfriend and I are on vacation and decided to come here since I’m vegan. The dessert options are INSANE. Whether you’re in the mood for a giant cookie with toppings, or a root beer float or just a simple waffle cone with ice cream, everything is dairy free and labeled as gluten free or if there’s any common allergens. The shop itself is adorable with friendly and attentive staff. The desserts taste absolutely amazing. A must try for vegans and non vegans

As a non vegan I had a fluffernutter sundae and it was amazing. Great quality and the peanut butter brownie tastes great! They have board games available to sit and hang out for a while and enjoy the ice cream. Very good customer service and prices were reasonable.

I was really impressed with The Cookie Counter. I would not be able to tell that the cookies are vegan just by taste and texture alone. I visited on a Sunday afternoon to a modest crowd. They had a bunch of cookie flavors available as well as ice cream flavors. I was craving cookies and after talking it over with my partner we decided on getting a dozen day-old cookies because it was $12. It had a good assortment of cookies and allowed me to try a lot of different flavors. I don't have any dietary restrictions so I was able to try everything. I especially enjoyed the chocolate chip cookies, snickerdoodles, and the brownie. The chocolate chip cookies had a good mix of chocolate chips and cookie and I enjoyed the flavor a lot. The snickerdoodles tasted just like non-vegan snickerdoodles and had a good balance of cinnamon and sugar. The brownie was also just like a non-vegan one. It was still moist and had a good chocolate flavor. The consistency was more like chocolate cake, but that's totally fine by me. Other cookies included were lemon matcha, lemon sugar, Mexican chocolate, and chocolate/snickerdoodle "chocodoodle" cookies. All were still in good shape and still pretty fresh. Another plus were the really friendly people working the front of the house. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would come back for cookies regardless of their vegan status.

Really amazing! Each time we have been they have been friendly and wonderful. The ice cream and cookies have been so good! It is such a wonderful treat to sit down in this comfortable place and savor or treat. Pull out the Uno or another game and enjoy our time together.

I am lactose-intolerant, and I have tried lots of lactose-free ice creams. This place does it so well! The cookies are outstanding, too. I love the ice cream sandwiches. I had an amazing one with chocolate chip cookies and cherry ice cream - it was a long time ago at the Greenwood car show and one of only two options available at the time. Normally I wouldn't have chosen cherry ice cream, but WOW it was so good that it won me over. I also had a sandwich with coffee ice cream and snickerdoodle cookie - also very memorable and so good. I am hooked. I want to try every flavor! - also, the sundae options here are mind-blowing. I LOVE the blondie sundae especially. Call the dentist is great too!
