That's right, people, not one or two or three flavors, but SIX vegan flavors. I ended up getting the rose water gelato with a peach swirl in a waffle cone (also vegan!!!) and it was delightfully creamy, fruity, and delicious. My hubs got the vegan Turkish coffee with cardamom (incredibly good) and the lemon almond (like lemon ice cream meeting amaretto) in a waffle cone and loved it. The service was friendly and fast too. We ate on a bench outside on a hot evening and the gelato cooled us down and brought a smile to our faces. Highly recommended!

They offer up a good variety and if you can't make up your mind opt for the 7-flavor ice cream flight. I choose a to dabble in a shrub float. New item for me. Shrub is a sweetened fruit infused vinegar. For the float they use the shrub (from local vendor Girl Meets Dirt), seltzer water, and your choice of ice cream. I definitely could see this being a summer drink. Has a bit of a bite from the vinegar (I'd advise to make sure it's all fully incorporated or you'll end up with a straight shot of the shrub).

We ended up getting the vegan chocolate with their homemade waffle cones and a doggie cup. The doggie cup came with a doggy biscuit on top which our dog just gobbled up. My only suggestion is to have a couple more dairy free options. 3 is quite minimal. Even if they're not vegan, I would have loved to try their burnt honey flavor in a dairy free option. I still give this stop 5/5 for their inclusiveness, friendliness, and great tasting ice cream. Very warm and cozy for an ice cream shop.

The store is small, but all you want is the gelato, so who needs a huge place anyway? They had a good selection for a store that size, and they offered some fun flavours that we Toronto people don't get access to. An example is the Nanaimo bar flavour they offered. I was told by my friend that it was extremely tasty, and the salted gelato was quite good as well. Just a heads up, they only allow you to sample once, so pick carefully!
