Menchie's Admiral - Maltkiln Lane

We've only been here twice because it's insanely expensive. But my son loves it so we do it as a rare treat. Place is clean. No one is ever at the counter. Variety of ice-cream and toppings. They also have a sorbet for those of us who are lactose intolerant or don't want anything creamy and love fruity!

My son has been begging me to take him here for awhile, he's gone with friends, Ive never been here. I finally gave in this weekend and took him to Menchies in W Seattle after we had an escape room date. We each got a cup, maybe 4 inches in dia and 3 inches tall and didn't even fill it past the brim (in fact mine was only about half full with only a spoonful of cheesecake topping and 2 maraschino cherries) so you can imagine my shock when we get to the counter and the total was just under $25! I just about shyt myself. I could have bought 9.6 cartons of kroger ice cream for that. Why does everyone these days have to price gouge SO RIDICULOUSLY MUCH?! I bet it cost them $2 to make. I feel so bad for kids these days that NEVER get treats because their parents just cant afford it. This wasnt an issue in the 80s when I grew up.Anyways, withIn the 10 minute drive home, his was gone and mine was totally melted because it was already so soft coming out of the machine. What a rip off.

Always good service and clean spot. Menchies always delivers.

My daughter and I have frequented this Menchie’s for 6+ years, the product and service has been consistent and we always enjoy ourselves when we’re there. I’m writing this in the hopes that the owner will see it because I don't think it’s fair to complain to the teens working the counter that don’t make the policies… but the bathrooms at this location have been closed since Covid started and have yet to reopen, while I understand that for a time it made sense to close the restrooms but it’s time to reopen them, as an establishment that serves food and drink it is not reasonable to rely on the neighboring grocery store (for which we are not patrons and is not in the same building) for restroom needs. Seems convenient for the owner and neglectful to the customer.

It seems like the staff is trying their best! It’s a little chaotic in there but most of these self serve places especially ones popular with kids are. Other then that it’s clean and everything seems to be standard quality. Just needs some more helping hands on keeping up with replacing OOS items.
