Salt and Straw at Downtown Disney Announces Reopening Date
We’ve got some exciting news for all you West Coast ice cream lovers! If you’ve every been to Downtown Disney, you’ve no doubt seen the lines snaking down the sidewalk and Salt & Straw and its easy to understand why. This ice cream shop has been dazzling visitors and locals alike with their delicious and creative ice cream flavors.
That’s why we’re so excited to share the news with you that they’ve officially announced a reopening date! We have received confirmation that this beloved sweet shop will be opening its doors to eager customers beginning July 9th.
Co-founders and cousins Kim and Tyler Malek created Salt & Straw as a one-of-a-kind experience, encouraging guests to sample through the diverse menu and share a special moment over ice cream. Upon entering the shop, guests are greeted by Salt & Straw’s enthusiastic experts who can lead them on their tasting journey. The shop’s design features an abstract totem pole display of stacked scoops and cones, handmade sculpted lighting fixtures and red-and-white-striped exterior panels to evoke the feeling of a modern-day mercantile.
Salt & Straw ice cream offerings are handmade in small batches using local, organic and sustainable ingredients. Monthly specials showcase flavors rooted in seasonality. Guests can enjoy scoops on handmade waffle cones, with fudge and rainbow sprinkles, as well as pick up pints and cones to-go.
What also makes Salt & Straw unique is that they are constantly changing up their offerings with new seasonal menus on the first Friday of each month. This is incredible because it means every time you visit, you’ll be treated to a brand-new experience based on what is seasonal and salient at that moment. So, when you visit in August, you’ll get to take a tour of Southern California’s various farms through flavors that showcase summer vegetables.
