    Coffee (left) & dark chocolate (right)

    I had the dark chocolate and it was incredibly rich and thick--perfect if you love bold chocolate flavors! I sampled the mango sorbet too and really liked it, but I decided to stick with the dark chocolate. Just a heads-up: the ice cream isn't super creamy, so if you're expecting that texture, this might feel different. Overall, great flavor and worth trying if you're into intense chocolate.

    Incredibly delicious gelato shop in the heart of Wellfleet. Even their gift cards are adorable!!

    One of the best ice cream ever tasted and very lovely staff. And the ambience is so nice where birds are chirping. Try dark choco and hazelnut

    Very bad latte. Tasted like a glass a milk that was shown a picture of espresso. Would not go to again.

    Cookies were good. No complaints there. My issue is, the sugar cookie has almond extract in it. My…read morewife (who is also currently pregnant) has a severe nut allergy. There was no label or warning of almond extract in the cookie. It wasn't until AFTER we both had a bite that we tasted the almond flavor. When I went back to ask the worker if the sugar cookie had almond in it, she said no. I asked her again to be double sure. She, again, said there was no almond extract in the cookie. I finally told her I tasted almond in the cookie. She finally asked another worker and they confirmed there was almond extract in the cookie. In hindsight, should I have asked if there was any nuts in the cookies we ordered? Yes. But we ordered a chocolate chip cookie and a sugar cookie, which both traditionally do not have nuts in them. However, there was no labeling anywhere that there were nuts in the sugar cookie. Also, even if I asked the worker before purchasing the cookie, if there were nuts in it, she would have said no because she clearly didn't know the ingredients in her own product. Thankfully, my wife was OK after taking a Benadryl but she could have been severely sick from this. this company should do better at labeling their products and the staff actually knowing the ingredients in their product before someone else gets sick.

Stopped in every day I was in P-town and had the Toasted Coconut, Blueberry Citrus, (2x) Lemongrass, and Olive Oil - Black Pepper. So so delicious! Good thing they're not closer to home!

We just wanted a light snack because it was a little late in the day. A friendly woman (who I believe was an owner) was training someone and recommended the tuna sashimi dinner. We got that and a cup of their amazing clam chowder and it was perfect. The fish was fresh as was the rice and salads. Later in the week we returned for fried clams, scallops, and a fish dinner which were equally perfect. See you next year!

We ate on the patio on a high top table near a screen window, which was lovely. The biggest advantage over Arnold's is that the joint is BYOB. That's a rare thing in the Cape. The fried cod was flaky, lightly coated, and perfectly fried with an abundant amount of homemade French fries, a roll, and standard fare Cole Slaw. The roll is unnecessary, in my opinion. Missing having onion rings on the menu. Arnold's (and the old Liam's at Nauset Beach) made the best. Condiments are serve-yourself, but you'll have to ask the host for lemon slices. We'll return for fried food but will continue to search other locales. We went back the next night for ice cream and it was just average. $5 for a small scoop in a bowl, we were charged more for a small sundae than what was advertised on the board, and service was very slow. However, the sundae hit the spot and they didn't skimp on the hot fudge and walnuts.

    This is another go-to stop when visiting Cape Cod every year. The review is going toward the…read moremini-golfing. There are 18 holes in this location and the layout is pretty decent. I've noticed some major upgrades that have been made since we returned this year. Different obstacles have been put in place, which gives a different variety. I'm big with variety, as I do like changes to an extent. Every hole I have no problem with, but the last hole, take caution. There are steps that lead up to this hole, and when coming down, there are is a little step you have to take before reaching the stairs climbing down. It's a trip hazard and something needs to be done about it to level it straight. Other than that, it's a fun mini golf course.

And yes I know that isn't normalized but let it alone. This place is like that. The mini-golf is great, super fun course with a loop-de-loop. But then the food situation is complicated - some years they have it and some years they don't. And you never know. And when they have it it's great. But when they don't it's sad and you are disappointed but you still like the mini-golf. Add in that the bar may or may not be there and if it is it may or may not be open and the wave function of you chance of happiness here looks something like this: 1/4(+golf+food+bar)+ 1/4(+golf+food~bar)+ 1/4(+golf-food +bar)+ 1/4(+golf- food-bar) Again not normalized but whatever. So there it is, this place exists in a quantum superposition. Of true awesomeness and partial sadness and like in life you never know what you are going to get. So enjoy the randomness and ride the wave-function, dude, if life were certain we'd all be as bored as laplace's demon. But bring peanut butter and jelly sandwiches just in case. Five stars.
