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. The business later operated as a pop-up on Northeast Sandy Boulevard, before the first brick and mortar location on Mississippi Avenue, in the north Portland part of the Boise neighborhood.

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