History

Owner Katelyn Williams launched Kate's Ice Cream in 2019, initially selling at the farmers' market on the Portland State University campus in downtown Portland.[8] The business later operated as a pop-up on Northeast Sandy Boulevard, before the first brick and mortar location on Mississippi Avenue,[9] [10] in the north Portland part of the Boise neighborhood.[11]

A second shop opened on 23rd Avenue in northwest Portland's Northwest District in 2024,[12] [13] [14] in the space previously occupied by Westward Whiskey.[15]
