Full Tilt Ice Cream is a small chain of ice cream shops in the Seattle metropolitan area, in the U.S. state of Washington.

Established in 2008,[1] the business has operated in Seattle's Ballard, Columbia City, and University District neighborhoods, as well as White Center.[2] Full Tilt offers flavors inspired by international ingredients; varieties include horchata and Thai tea.[3][4] Shops also have beer and pinball.[5] The University District location was smaller and had a single video game machine, but closed along with the Ballard location in 2019.[6][7]

Spouses Justin Cline and Ann Magyar started the business together. Following Cline's death in 2024,[8][9][10] Magyar announced plans to close the White Center location and wind down Full Tilt's wholesale operations.[11] A location in Columbia City would remain open under separate ownership, but source its ice cream from local manufacturer Snoqualmie Ice Cream.[7][12]
