Salt and straw!!! First of all I really like the name. We went there on a Sunday afternoon, & there was a long queue for getting the ice cream but is it worth it? Absolutely it is!!!The ice creams look good, and tastes awesome. They have a nice and simple menu. I got black tea chocolate which was wonderful. Recommended!!!!

I had a waffle cone. Was my first time here. It was original and delicious. I tried a few sample before ordering. All were yummy. The Strawberry Honey Balsamic Magic Shell (dairy free) was very interesting and good.

Creamy soft serve with great choice options. I got the custardy vanilla with large cookie dough chunks. My husband enjoyed chocolate fudge in a cone. Would definitely return.

Fun place to stop in to try some Salt and Straw ice cream inside the public market. My wife tried a couple of.the fruity flavors that were creamy and delicious. I had a coffe ice cream dipped in chocolate. It had great texture as well, but was a little too salty for my taste. It.tastes more salty than sweet.

Its a great offshoot of salt and straw! It has the same vibe however itd soft serve instead of ice cream! As with salt and straw they have a ton of unique flavors that will pique your interest!

So good! The staff and owners are always friendly. Be it hard or soft serve, they have most any flavour one could want. Enjoy it while the summer lasts.

Conveniently located in the popular and hip Pine Street Market, Whiz Bang Bar has great soft serve with unique flavors Salt & Straw is known for. The lines can get a little intimidating during peak hours, but no one seems disappointed when they get their soft serve! Its also hard to resist coming here for dessert when the aroma of waffle cone surrounds it.Pictured is the honey lavender soft serve.

The employees are extremely friendly and helpful! Everything on the menu looked soo good. We got the the rocky road special which was pretty good. Definitely need to try the soft served ice cream next time

Well if its son of Salt & Straw then its surely good. Of course didnt dissapoint. Had the lavender honey and doughnut flavor with white chocolate salted caramel and yup, as good as it sounds.

Stopped by Wiz Bang tonight for the first time and got the Rocky Road Hot Fudge Magic Cone. At first it was great with the textures of the nuts, the marshmallow and brownie pieces, but after I ate through the top part, the ice cream itself didn’t have much flavor and the chocolate cone was just okay. A disappointment and not worth the calories, I’ll put it that way, and I didn’t finish it. Not what I Iike to do with a $7.50 ice cream treat. My partner did enjoy his chocolate dipped cone. I will try something else next time I visit.

Wiz Bang bar ice cream is good and fun for a “unique” ice cream option. I wish there were more options. The atmosphere is very fun and connects to a bunch of other restaurants in a lovely ambiance!

Fun neighborhood facility, tasty flavors, unique toppings

If I could give this place a 0 star I would. This 12oz milkshake was $7.25!!! The Salt and Straw at this restaurant sucks. I couldve gone to Sharis or Dennys and got a 16oz milkshake for HALF the price. All they did was take a scoop of ice cream and drop it in their blender and voila a milkshake. Dont waste your time or money here. Youre more or less paying for their fancy brand name.

After devouring some salty treats nearby, get your sweet-tooth fix here and leave satisfied for sure! Both the traditionalist as well as the adventurous spirits will be happy as long as you’re not worried about calorie count. WizBangBar is a great addition to the Salt&Straw tradition of delivering what you want in an unexpected way, so order up, try something new and leave stuffed with a smile.

Just as good as the regular salt and straw, but with a different texture.

Great treat option at Pine Street Market. Reasonable pricing, limited menu, but interesting and tasty options like this vanilla custard with a lavender lemon magic shell in a fresh made waffle cone. May be a wait, but they move the line fairly quickly. @traveling_fork_and_spoon

Rocky road magic cone. Really nice ice cream place!

Absolutely delicious roasted strawberry coconut soft serve. If I didnt live on the other side of the country, Id be here all the time!

Overpriced for the sheeple. I wanted a concrete (just ice cream mixed with toppings) which I was told only comes in a cup, so I asked to have a chocolate cone on top of the cup. They told me that is not possible with a chocolate cone...so I had to order a rocky road cone without the marshmallow fluff and replace it with Oreo. It was good, but ridiculous. For the price I’d go elsewhere. The line was twenty minutes long out onto the sidewalk and around the corner.

One of my favourite ice cream places. They were definitely ahead of the trend for niche ice cream places, delicious & such a selection!

Best Salt & Straw location! Absolutely loved the wild berry froyo with the black raspberry dip. Cone was also super fresh and thick. Everything else looked so tempting, too! Definitely would recommend, and I’ll be coming back myself!

Best strawberry ice cream I have ever eaten. I NEED RO BUY SOME

Went down to Portland back in July for one last hurrah with friends before moving to the other side of the country. Random stop into an eatery for ramen and this gem was next to it.The ice cream was very creamy and delicious and the staff is absolutely amazing! I love the unique flavors and options for chocolate shell. 🤤

Supposed to be some type of local delicacy... Overall, not overly impressed. Average sof serve ice cream.

Wow, best soft serve Ive had!

Get the roasted strawberry coconut with a chocolate hard shell! Amazing combo.

Fun place with high quality ingredients.

Ice cream is incredible.. service is awful. Consistently bad service with people who hate answering questions and act like they would rather be anywhere else.Update: I am super impressed with how quickly someone reached out to me about this and was so helpful at working with the manager of this location and its employees to make our next experience even better. High quality management and of course high quality ice cream.

Ive visited Salt & Straw quite a few times and heard of Wiz Bang. Decided to check it out knowing it was soft serve. The flavors were pretty tasty by themselves. Tried a concrete and ended up getting a pretty good soft serve ice cream with about 20 scoops of cookie dough mixed in. After my one time visit I recommend avoiding the concrete! Real big fan of Salt & Straw though!

The ice cream is incredible here. Food was also good. It is worth the wait for carry out cones - take the whole family- they wont be disappointed.

Huge selection of delicious soft serve, Cement, dip cones, and more. Wonderful staff

Really good ice cream. Even for those of us who are dairy and gluten free, they have a very good option. If I didnt live 100 miles away Id be coming back every weekend. Though, Im definitely going to stop back in next time Im in Portland.

Food was super flavorful. The place has a cool atmosphere.

A wonderful little Sunday bar with a selection of vegan and dairy soft serve ice cream. While the seasonal flavors are hit or miss, the standards are always great. The service is always friendly and quick. I love the vegan strawberry soft serve.I highly recommend stopping here to feed your sweet tooth.

Coming here is always such a special treat. They have such unique flavors and are constantly mixing them up so you always have something new to try. Staff is very kind and lets you try whatever you want. Had the Roasted Strawberry Coconut yesterday... delicious. The cones are just as tasty if not better than the ice cream flavors. Love this place. Definitely recommend checking it out.

Ive been here several times with friends and family. All of the soft serve flavors are done well but its neat that vegan soft serve like chocolate hazelnut milk are options. That said, the specialty cones and sundaes are what to get and are big enough to share with a friend or small group!

Its basically a better salt n straw in my opinion with unique options that you cant find at their other locations. Keep in mind this is basically a sister company to salt n straw they arent entirely different franchises theyre very similar. My biggest complaint is the price for a pint of ice cream. I can get a tub of tillamook ice cream for less then half the price and have twice as much ice cream compared to a pint from salt n straw. Overall their flavors are robust and never feel cliche, they actually try to make all their flavors feel more premium.

The Wiz Bang bar is in the pine street market, which can be busy on the weekends, and has lots of places to eat and drink. We just went to the Wiz Bang for ice cream. They didnt have many flavors (3 or 4), which is why I didnt give 5 stars. They had some interesting flavors and options to dip their soft serve cones. I liked my cone, but could see the potential to get a weird combo of ice cream, dip flavor and toppings.

We waited exactly 52 minutes in line got this soft serve ice cream place, which by the way is owned by Salt & Straw. We were lucky because there were some really funny people in line with us that kept us entertained. But almost an hour for soft serve? I mean we had invested too much time standing in line to just give us. As we approached the entrance door the smell of fresh waffle cones made me more excited.At last in was our turn! I decided to go with the vegan option which was a blackberry coconut soft serve and I decided to have the lavender lemon sauce drizzled on top. Seconds later the sauce turned solid on top of my soft serve and created a hard shell. Very cool.Moment of truth *drum rolls* here is what I think, the soft serve was great. Bold fresh flavors. The lavender lemon sauce was very lemony. I missed the whole lavender part of it. But it was delicious regardless. But I would never stand an hour in line for this. Especially in a city like Portland where every corner you turn there’s something delicious and yummy to have as dessert. But overall great ice creams.

Still think about the goat milk soft serve with black raspberry hard shell topping that I had on my first visit months ago! I live out of town so stopped by again today. Unfortunately, it was a seasonal flavor! Lucy offered samples and recommendatons and I got a delicious ginger beer flavored variety that had a fun kick. Then, Lucy told me that my cone was on her! What a fun, unexpected gesture! Definitely worth going out of my way. Thanks again!

How fun! This place just oozes Portland. Its a small little shop located in essentially a food court. The service was awesome and the treats are great! My boyfriend and I split the brownie sundae and it was so good! I cant wait to come back with my family and friends!

At 9:45pm - no line - single source chocolate soft-serve with Oregon black raspberry dip.

Great customer service and friendly staff. Pretty good compared to some other ice cream shops in the area specifically Ben and Jerrys. Only thing I was not fond of was the flavor selection.

Awesome little ice cream place inside Pine Street Market. They serve a good variety of delicious ice cream in various cones and bowls.

My fav place place for ice cream 🍦

Cold brew soft serve 🔥🔥🔥

I care too much about Wiz Bang Bar, Salt&Straw ice cream, and basic human decency to sit back silently and allow Joe St. Peter to besmirch the name of an outstanding company, all in order to pass himself off as something greater than a buffoon of the highest order. What kind of sick, depraved man would sink so low as to submarine a company all to try and incorrectly portray himself as a man of competence who knows how to eat an ice cream cone?Look, I know Joe. For the most part, I like Joe. Im telling you from the horses mouth that theres a zero percent chance that cone was served to him without a bottom. He absolutely bit the cone, like an impish barbarian without so much as a basic grasp of the consequences, and then sat there in a hell of his own creation as ice cream poured out the bottom of the cone that he bit. At the moment, I hoped Joe would perhaps realized that actions do indeed have consequences, but alas weve found ourselves in a position where hes trying to pass the blame onto anyone and anyone other than the man responsible. We, as a people, deserve better than to believe these lies that are being fed to us, lies that messily drip out of the bottom of a cone (in this metaphor the cone is also made of lies), bitten off by the teeth of a lying snake of a man. Do not be deceived, Portland. The cones at the Salt&Straw outpost located at Wiz Bang are always structurally intact. I wish I could say the same about the integrity of one Joe St. Peter.Ice cream was great. 5-stars. Would go again.

Delicious and quick service! Check it out!!

Amazing ice cream though limited options. Plenty of seating and plenty of other foods available in the same building. Check this place Out and get a delicious berry shell on your ice cream. You wont regret the stop

A few years ago the blondie sundae here was the best sundae Ive ever had. Now theyve taken it off the menu along with other great sundaes in hopes of speeding up the line. Salt and Straw and this spin off is an over priced flavorless tourist trap. Youll have fun waiting in line talking about all the unique flavors, but in the end, youll be disappointed.

This morning s an UPSCALE food court for grown up Portlandia! Great food and Great place to people watch!

Kind, amazing, patient people work here. Plus on top of that the soft serve is amazing! Great experience every time we come here.

The chocolate taco I got was so good but had a bit too much sea salt but it didn’t take away from the cone or chocolate

Pretty good ice cream flavors. Not to bad when combined with there OREO chocolate combo to make the infamous Concretes. Lets just say, I had NO PROBLEM finishing it!

Bizarre, crowded place with nowhere to sit. We went in because we saw they had salt n straw ice cream. It was very good!Unfortunately they did not offer real coke so I wound up with some kind of bizarre artisan coke that tasted horrific. (You can taste test the ice cream but not the soda because its in glass bottles.)When the nice lady at the counter saw my face though, she let me swap the float out for a yummy ice cream. Very happy that happened!Across the way, in the same building was a restaurant that offered real coke in glass bottles. I bought that and it was yummy too.Would we go back? Maybe so! I saw a cute noodle bar so Id like to try the ramen!Edit: we went back and salt n straw now offers real coke in a glass bottle! Excellent!

Had the soft serve and the concrete. The soft serve was the most creamy and smooth ice cream that Ive had. The concrete came late and I was given a free gift card to make up for it, but barely needed as the cookies and cream was amazing.

I love the concept but the only flavor I enjoy is the vegan coconut raspberry. The other flavors are very rich and custardy but dont have enough flavorful chunks. I think its just from being soft serve. Also the hard shell is just okay. But I see a great future for this concept. I do wish they offered one more vegan flavor and rotated flavors as often as the regular salt and straw. Also the doorway is too close to the stand so a lot of times the line spills over into the sidewalk, I guess thats normal for salt and straw though.

The Strawberry Shortcake is through the roof. Creamy and delicate soft serve ice cream like no other. Strawberry syrup like a fine liqueur with a sweet and delicate tang. Let’s get back in line and get it again!!!

Its really smart to have multiple restaurants within one building. I never know what i want to eat so this place is awesome! Got to try to ice cream and top notch ramen!

I didnt notice upon ordering but my cone was broken on the bottom. Because the cone was stuffed the drips saturated my napkin even at my break-neck lick rate. Ice cream dripped on my hands and on the table.My friends thought I first ate the bottom of the cone...but Im no idiot. I couldnt convince them that I would never chomp on the cone first! My friends jeered. Wiz Bang made a mockery of this avid ice cream eater.Ice cream was great. 5-stars. Would go again.

Went on 10-11 after dinner. Got the strawberry. It was good, but I looked at other who got the same and saw that they got more than I did. I was disappointed.

My family is visiting from out of town and after our first time here we are hooked! The ice cream tastes like cold, creamy scoops of heaven and the manager, Joel, is really friendly.

Good happy hour prices

Vanilla concrete with brownies and caramel*Best thing you can get here.It is in a cool small food court type place and is open later than all the other restaurants.If you are in Portland this is a must

Too good.

Must try the beer float

Super nice service, the folks here are amazing. And excellent ice cream as usual!

Just got back from Portland- Salt & Straw lives up to the hype! The donut flavored ice cream is incredible and the huge chunks of cookie dough are amazing. I went two days in a row (and I try and steer clear of dairy).

Delicious and unique flavors of ice cream, including dairy free and gluten free options. Kind and passionate staff.

My coworkers and I frequently visit the Salt and Straw located in the Wiz Bang Bar in Portland and the staff are so incredibly friendly and creatively design soft serve treats that keep us coming back.I just wanted to say thank you and thanks for hiring such awesome staff at this location!

The best ice cream, soft and creamy. I really loved.

My go to is the rocky road with the chocolate waffle cone. It’s a meal in itself so be ready. This soft serve branch of Salt & Straw is a must when eating at Pine Street Market. If you are in the area “treat yo self.”

We tried the roasted strawbery coconut, fudge chocolate, and Blue Star dount flavors and all were quite good. The donut one was salty, oily, sweet definitely giving the feeling of donut in ice cream form. Nice way to finish off a visit to the Pine Street Market.

People who strongly care about their community and have a good tasty product :-)

I got the roasted strawberry coconut.. Oh man. Soooo yummy! Sweet, tart, tangy & refreshing. I also tried the woodblock chocolate and it was SO chocolatey. Sure to satisfy your deepest chocolate desires. Ill definitely be back.

VERY spendy! I guess I didnt realize what I was getting myself into. $9 for a cone seemed a bit high, but whatever. You only live once right. 😋 It looked amazing, but getting to the actual ice cream was not an easy task and everything was just too sweet..(I know, I didnt know that was a thing either) I ended up throwing it away after I took the pic.. might have eaten more had I known to ask for a bowl to put it in.🤷

Amazing soft serve. Personally, I prefer it over the ice-cream.

I tried the Rocky Road Waffle cone and my friend had the Vanilla soft serve in a waffle cone topped with giant Oreo pieces. The cones are awesome and flavor is good, even though its 34 degrees Fahrenheit outside.

Great choices; especially for soft serve. They have custard and concrete for midwest transplants with a craving.

It was ok, not great! A lot of things you see online are not available all the time. The menu is not too big. It might be better during other times of the year but not so great during November. It might have also been my fault... maybe I didnt know the right thing to order. But I got the strawberry shortcake Sunday and it wasnt bad, bad but it wasnt the best either. Service was great though, everyone very friendly and happy. And the location was also pretty cool. Theyre inside Pine St Market and where theres a lot of different places to eat and drink. I might go there again to get Ramen and give Wiz Bang Bar another try :)

Amazing flavors and great atmosphere! Great place to grab a bite to eat and get a treat after. Will definitely be going again

Just great! It’s salt and straw, but soft serve. just go already

Its embarrassing that a grown man would take to google to make up a story about a stand up ice cream company that consistently produces perfectly crafted waffle cones. Using big words like saturated to describe your napkin isnt impressing anyone and its certainly not making your story more believable, Joe St. Peter. Be a man and admit you bit the gosh darn bottom of the cone.I had the sea salt and caramel and it was divine.

The customer service here is where they really shine. And you cant go wrong with ice cream.

Very delicious ice creAm. Awesome location. Bit pricey even for downtown Portland

Love the Wiz Bang Bar! They made all my soft serve ice cream dreams come true. We got dipped cones yesterday and they were heavenly.

Choco tacos were good (thought I thought they would be made to order for some reason). Also tried an alcoholic shake that was tasty but a little odd. All in all the best part was the super friendly and accommodating staff.

Great view of tee famous Portland neon signboard.However, the ice cream is average.

The flavors seemed oversaturated with the flavor of dairy. Not quite sure why? The best flavor was the dairy-free strawberry coconut. Toppings were OK but the portions were too large. I got cookie dough and I got at least 6 cookies worth. Id go again if they have some more interesting flavors or for the strawberry coconut one.

Part of Salt & Straw but different ice cream offerings that focus on Soft Serve with dips and add-on’s (Oreo bits, cheesecake bites, etc.). Less flavor options than usual Salt & Straw ships. Friendly service. Located inside Pine Street Market.

The best ice cream I have ever tasted - just the right amount of sweetness - not filled with cheap sugar that companies use to increase profit. The continuous line on a weekday till 11 pm speaks to their success.

Disappointing, especially for a Salt & Straw. Ive tried a couple different sundaes of their own design, which sound AMAZING, but I didnt like either. So I tried plain vanilla custard (which I am a huge fan of vanilla soft serve) and that was also not very good. Honestly, Id rather go to Dairy Queen.

Several restaurants in one, so many choices!

My husband took a walk through Portland from their sister location of Salt & Straw to here for their choco-tacos. I love the idea of this location with all of the different little food shops set up to try a variety of selections of food and dessert. Lovely afternoon atmosphere and helpful staff! Thank you Wiz Bag Bar!

Delicious combinations of ice cream and toppings. Fun atmosphere. Nice employees. Vivian was very nice and helpful!

I have been to the wizbangbar several times in the past few months, and its always a great experience. They have amazing concrete, and dont be afraid to grab some ice cream at 10 p.m. at night, its an inside location and you will still have a great experience even had a late time.

This place has awesome presentation of their ice cream...A small area of this market area that houses several food selections. We will be going again - with friends & family

This review is only for the roasted strawberry coconut serve since I didnt try any of their parfaits, and they were out of matcha blood orange which I was curious to try. Although it has a wonderful strawberry flavor, it was not as stellar; almost felt like something was missing. I sampled the vanilla, which was very underwhelming - it tasted like your run of of the mill soft serve 🤷. I suppose I was hoping for an oomf of vanilla. As usual, the waffle cone is delicious though.

Definitely a splurge for soft serve, but the magic shell coatings are A+

It has great ice cream there. Salt and Straw has good ice cream there.
