Seattle’s hometown ice cream heavyweight is heading for Northgate. Molly Moon's is set to open a new scoop shop at Northgate Station next spring, taking a ground-floor space in the Everis apartment building. The local brand’s arrival is one of the earliest retailer commitments tied to Simon Property Group’s larger Northgate redevelopment, so the ice cream gets there before most of the rest of the party.
As reported by the Puget Sound Business Journal, Molly Moon's is the first retailer announced for the Everis building and is slated to open next spring. The outlet published that report on July 6, 2026.
Everis Building And Retail Space
Everis is part of Simon’s multi-phase plan to remake the Northgate site and, according to The Urbanist, the project has topped out and includes roughly 234 apartments plus a large parking structure intended to serve both residents and ground-floor tenants. The Urbanist also notes that Simon is wrapping residential units around an oversized garage, a design choice that shapes how and where retail spaces fit along the street.
Molly Moon's Local Footprint
Molly Moon's has been expanding carefully across Seattle and the Eastside. The company notes on its locations page that its Bellevue flagship opened in July 2020. That neighborhood-first growth pattern continued with a Kirkland shop announced earlier this spring, as reported in a scoop invasion piece.
Why It Matters For Northgate
Dropping a Molly Moon’s on the ground floor means new Everis residents get an instant local amenity, and it adds some literal sweetness to Simon’s evolving mix of dining and neighborhood shops. Northgate Station is a major transit hub served by Link light rail and regional buses, which positions the scoop shop to catch both commuters and nearby residents on their way to and from home, according to Sound Transit. Leasing and broader center details come from Simon Property Group.
Beyond the “next spring” timetable, neither a firm opening date nor final store size has been published. More details on hours, shop footprint and any grand opening plans are expected to surface as Everis finishes interior build-out and tenants move through the permitting process.
