Pistachio (green) and fig and olive oil (cream colored) I had this flavor combination twice now and both flavors are amazing! I'd highly recommend the coconut matcha and Carmelo (salted caramel) that flavor combination is insane! I've been twice in the past two weeks! Staff is always friendly, service is fast and the seating and music is super cozy. There's also nice outdoor seating! It's such a nice place! read more

If ya know, ya know. Gelato is ice cream's older brother, maybe a little more accomplished and refined, appeals to the ladies, and generally just does most everything with that extra panache. The flavors are sharper & the milkfat is lower and it's a rather fantastic experience. Lamonte shares space in the historic Sacred Heart Hospital building and there is ample space in or out at which you can enjoy your treats. This small business has won 'Best on the Coast' awards and you can absolutely see why! Gelato is almost fluffy, it seems creamier without the cream, and the combinations can seem endless. They even have a variety that is Olive Oil & Fig, which was sampled by a member of our party and deemed fantastic. Our shared cup of Salted Caramel & Double Chocolate did not last long, and when served with a waffle cone wafer, it made for the perfect union. A small cup, in which you can mix up to two flavors, runs you $5.50, and the larger cup will run you $6.50, making it super-affordable for this artisanal approach to a wonderful delight. Lamonte even puts together a fabulous coffee/drink menu, so there is just about something for any time of day. Pro tip: try an Affogato, a delight of espresso over vanilla gelato. The staff is friendly and certainly willing to suggest something for gelato rookies, and you can see why this brand is exceptionally proud of its product. read more

We noticed this cute little shop when we went out to eat at the Burrow. So glad we brought the kids back to try it out. It is in an old hospital building with beautiful architecture. The inside is decorated so cute and clean. The staff were absolutely amazing and knowledgeable and let us try samples. I had the Belgium chocolate and pistachio- both with amazing flavor- the pistachio was spot on. My kids had mint chocolate chip and Bischoff cookie butter and both loved it. My husband tried a few sorbets and thought they were great. The waffle cookie on top was so crunchy and good! We will definitely be back. read more

How lucky are the citizens of Pensacola...the only real gelato I have had in the US. Amazing...better than a lot of the gelato in Italy. The Florentine cream is so beautifully balanced and perfect. The pistachio a real symphony. Homemade cones that border on stroopwaffles. I thought that some serious culinary genius was at hand and read later it is owned by a sommelier and a Michelin chef. It all makes sense now. The panini's are amazing as well. Thank you for creating such delicious beauty! read more

My favorite Gelato that I've ever had! They have many different flavors for whatever you're craving, and they always keep you coming back with new seasonal flavors. The gelato here always has perfectly balanced flavors and that smooth, creamy texture that you like for. The staff is always very kind and provides service with a smile every time and they also give out free samples if you want to try the flavors. It's located in an old hospital building right next to A Mano Panino, which is the best sandwich shop in all of Pensacola! I'm addicted. read more

LaMonte Gelato - Pensacola's Sweet Spot! We popped into LaMonte Gelato while in Pensacola and it did not disappoint. The shop is clean, inviting, and had such a fun, friendly vibe. The highlight for me? Dairy-free gelato options that were absolutely delicious! As someone who can't do dairy, it's rare to find a treat that's both safe and satisfying--but LaMonte nailed it. Creamy, flavorful, and so worth the stop. Great service, tasty treats, and a place I'd 100% visit again next time we're in town. Highly recommend treating yourself here! read more

Yum! Pretty good gelato, but what I really love was the set up of Lamonte. It's in a very unassuming building through a tiny doorway, but is decorated beautifully! The best part was the sweet wafer cone they put on top. Delicious to scoop the gelato with! I will probably get a cone vs. a cup next time so I can get more of that wafer. I would love to come back and try the coffee (they had a HUGE coffee menu / selection) and sandwich. It's definitely worth a try if you're nearby. read more

Bagelheads

Best bagel in Pensacola. Full stop…read more If you are along the water and looking for a breakfast spot, then Bagelheads may be your jam. Bagels and pastries of so many kinds plus phenomenal breakfast sandwiches and so much more. Almost everyone loves a good bagel, and they even have some gluten-free options (with some qualifiers). You can get a number of cream cheese options or other toppings, and their lox has that phenomenal smoked flavor. The Lox Works, complete with cream cheese & capers, can be done on your choice of bagel. In fact, any of the breakfast sandwiches can be done how you want it, and there are literally a million combinations. There's plenty of seating inside & even outside, so you can enjoy the view of the placid gulf as it laps up to Pensacola Beach while enjoying your breakfast. Bagelheads even offers their own roast coffee blend, called 'Mac Daddy', and it's a very robust cup of coffee. Self-serve coffee runs you $3.50 & you can get a dozen assorted bagels to go for $20, which will make whomever you bestow them upon very happy. You can even drive-through! Great local small business with an outstanding offering, great service, and a great brand.

Very friendly little spot!…read more We were passing through, needing to access the Pensacola airport - we were just looking for a quick bite to eat in the morning. This is a cute place within 10 minutes of the airport! Service was quick and very kind!! We aren't from the south but something we noticed is the customer service (and people in general) is often much better in the south!! A welcomed reprieve! The bagels were HUGE and very tasty! I ordered the crunch breakfast sandwich that came with chips on it! So fun!!

Cafe Single Fin

Cafe Single Fin: Great Concept, Average Plate…read more Cafe Single Fin is one of those places where the experience starts before you even find the restaurant. I drove around the block several times looking for it. Turns out, the restaurant is tucked inside a surf and skateboard shop. Once I finally figured that out, I walked in and immediately knew this wasn't going to be your average Pensacola lunch. The cafe is basically the centerpiece of the shop, surrounded by some seriously interesting vibes. I was greeted by scream-o music, which eventually segued into coffeehouse music and then some lighter indie stuff. Quite the musical journey. I half expected the playlist to ask me to pick a lane. What drew me in was the menu. Clean, interesting and exactly the kind of thing that makes you think, OK, these people might be onto something. I went with the blackened mahi tacos with rice and beans. And this is where things got a little less interesting. The food was fresh. The presentation was nice. Unfortunately, the flavor never really showed up for work. The mahi was supposed to be blackened, but I'm not convinced the blackening seasoning actually made it from the kitchen to the plate. The beans were also undercooked and under-seasoned. Nothing was bad, exactly. It just lacked the punch that the menu had promised. And that's the frustrating part. There is clearly a cool concept here, and the menu has enough personality to make you expect something memorable. The plate just didn't deliver the same energy as the room. Maybe I'm simply outside the target demographic. There seemed to be a pretty strong twenty-something surf/skate crowd, and perhaps I'm just not fluent in the culinary dialect of that demographic yet. Interesting place. Interesting concept. Interesting vibes. Friendly/helpful staff. Pretty average food.

I love this cafe! It is one of the coolest spots I have ever visited. Amazing coffee, delicious…read morefood with so many vegan options, plus a skate park, surf shop, and retail clothing all in one. My go-to is the vegan Costa wrap. It is 10 out of 10, packed with protein, the melted vegan cheese is actually good, the burrito is seared and crunchy, and the salsa is perfect. The vegan pastries and desserts are phenomenal as well. I highly recommend the s'mores cupcake or the banana bread. They also have tasty smoothies. The pumpkin spice latte with oat milk or a vanilla iced latte is also great. The staff is very friendly and personable, making it a great place to sit and get work done. With a skate park, surfboards, shoes, clothing, and other goodies for sale, there is so much to explore. I highly recommend checking it out!

BLT. It's delicious!

Approaching the historic abandoned hospital, you'd expect a scene from a horror film, not the gateway to an Italian escape. Yet, open the door to Lamonte Gelato, and that's exactly where you'll find yourself. Instantly, the modern, immaculate decor transports you to a chic Italian café, with wall art showcasing the Italian attractions - a touch of Italy in Pensacola. The gelato here is a revelation. The pistachio, packed with nuts, is a perfect blend of sweet and salty, taking you on a journey through Italian orchards. The Belgian chocolate, indulgent and smooth, rivals the world's best, evoking the magic of an artisanal Belgian chocolatier. Each bite is a testament to the passion and craft behind Lamonte's gelato. Not to play second fiddle the espresso is definitely the best in the area. Whether you're a local or a visitor, the team at Lamonte gelato welcomes you with a warm smile, expertly guiding you through their menu. Their passion for gelato is evident, enhancing the already extraordinary experience. Don't let the location fool you. Lamonte Gelato is more than just a shop - it's a charming slice of Italy in Pensacola. It delivers an authentic gelato experience that stands head and shoulders above any on the continent, and perhaps even in Europe. Lamonte Gelato - a delicious, unexpected journey from the familiar to the extraordinary. read more

We enjoyed that the ice cream was homemade as that's hard to find today. I do wish that they'd had more variety in their flavors. Most were typical and no "standouts" or summer flavors other than the peaches & cream. I'm sure they rotate through flavors so maybe we just came on a bad day. But the ice cream we had was good, and I'd recommend the banana pudding and toasted coconut to anyone who comes. Peaches & Cream was my third favorite I think, but it could use a little more peach flavor.
