Not that you need a special occasion to treat yourself to creamy scoops atop a cone (or a cup, if you’re into that), but we’ve taken National Ice Cream Day (Sun July 19) as an opportunity to round up our favorite creameries offering takeout and delivery. Peruse the myriad options below, from seasonal flavors at Molly Moon’s and Salt & Straw to soft serve and fizzy floats at Rachel’s Ginger Beer.
Bluebird Ice Cream
Bluebird crafts wonderful, ultra-smooth small-batch ice cream in flavors like chocolate pudding, Elysian stout, and snickerdoodle, as well as an array of from-scratch sodas. Both are good on their own, but even better together in an ice cream float.
Phinney
Open regular hours; also available via non-third-party delivery and pickup at several local farmers markets
