The lady was super friendly when we walked in and helped us with picking our flavors. It got super packed right when we walked in considering it was empty for a good while. Lots of things to choose from... from dessert to coffee to sandwiches everyone will be satisfied. Really big inside with lots of chairs and bathroom in the back. read more

Great Italian-style cafe! (It is spelled "caffe" at the restaurant-not sure if this page has it "right"? I enjoyed a tiramisu gelato affogato my first go, YUM! Friendly staff (a little English trouble from a female clerk who couldn't translate well--but went to someone else for help). Lots of Italian cookies, tiramisu, pastries. Great Italian espresso (Kimbo). At least 10 flavors of gelato. Brought a pistachio cake slice home for later--better than anywhere I've had the same thing. I enjoyed every experience and wouldn't hesitate to return, for breakfast, a craft coffee or a gelato treat! Indoor & outdoor seating. read more

Nice clean establishment. Was not a busy day, went straight in after playing miniature golf. Staff friendly, and she was patient with us until we made our final decision. I had the tiramisu and mixed berry sorbet, my little one had the mint chocolate and Nutella, my wife had the hazelnut and pistachio. Large scoops and delicious waffle cone. read more

Nice place to visit after playing a few rounds of miniature golf. The place has large space, oleander seating. Friendly staff and our server was very patient with trying to get our final selection. The only catch is if you are using a credit card, it charges a 4% fee. Cash is best. Good size ice cream scoops. Will return for another visit. read more

Bagel was blah- it advertises out front as a bagel shop but doesnt have butter for a bagel. Strawberry banana smoothie was delicious. Prices on the menu are different than they charge you and when you say something about it staff says "I dont know ask the owner" who is not present. Prices should reflect whats advertised on the menu thats displayed on the wall. We will not be back. read more

Came for dessert several times while here on vacation. I loved their butterfinger gelato and my husband loved their espresso, so we would walk over at night after dinner. The place is very clean with seating either outside on the patio or inside in the cool AC. The staff is friendly and what impressed me the most is when a woman came in for hot water for her children's cup of soup. They happily gave her hot water for both cups and the family sat outside eating. Such a sweet thing to do and not a negative comment at all. read more

Not that good gelato. Has consistency of ice cream and not very creamy. Small portions too. Honestly the freezer section of your suburban grocery store is about same quality. But if you are stuck in the southern part of Clearwater beach on a hot day, it is ok for that. read more

This is literally the cutest gelato cafe! They have a nice menu that includes coffee, espresso, macchiatos, afogato. They also have cafe foods like crepes and sandwiches. The place looks spotless clean and everything looks brand new. Now the gelato flavors are amazing and they have many sorbet options for those who are dairy free! They have cakes and other Italian pastries as well. The service was great, the server was very polite and of course you are able to sample different flavors. Which was nice to do because ever since Covid most places don't really allow you to sample. I love trying new places, especially when I'm away from my home state. This is the perfect "ice cream shop" to stop at when you're on your way home from being at the beach all day! I promise you'll be satisfied! read more

My family and I really wanted to like this gelato. It's the only thing of its kind nearby and it's right across from our hotel. But. This isn't gelato folks. I'm giving it one star because besides the really nice kid helping us and serving, the actual gelato was abysmal. We are pretty spoiled with two amazing gelato places near us in Portland, Maine and Brunswick, Maine. Of the three of us, we each had different flavors. My wife and son had two flavors each and one tasted like the smell of lemon pledge. The cherry tasted like a bad Robitussin cough drop and my salted caramel tasted like really badly burned coffee beans. read more

We are loyal customers as we visit this shop multiple times a month. The gelato is good and the young lady who works there is a sweetheart, but watch out for the young man because he's very stingy with the samples. My mom literally sampled one or two flavors and then he told her no more, and then tried to argue with us about how "every ice cream place does that." The girl apologized and gave my mom a free gelato so we will continue coming, but that was an unpleasant experience. read more

What they lack in store size, they surely make up for in the variety of ice cream they serve. They've been around since 1999 which speaks for itself. With over 25 delicious flavor options, their ice cream is handmade with quality ingredients. They let you sample as many flavors as you'd like which is always the fun part. Some of their regular flavors are vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, rocky road & mint chocolate chip while their "gourmet" flavors have a lot more components to them. Red velvet cake, Heath bar crunch, Cookie Monster & cherry vanilla are just the tip of the iceberg. Whatever you choose, it's going to be loaded with ingredients & be some of the best ice cream you can find in the area. They also take pride in serving fresh waffle bowls/cones & mouth watering candies. Everything is homemade so you can taste the difference when you eat their chocolate. It's rich, creamy & super flavorful. Whether you get their fudge or some chocolate covered potato chips, it'll leave your mouth watering. Be sure to take a few minutes by their display case to see all the unique candies they offer. It seems like there's always a line when I drive by but they keep it moving. The employees are always super nice & they're very efficient. Parking can be a little tough because of the way downtown is set up but don't let that dissuade you. This place is worth waiting a few minutes for.
