    taste the tropics
    Stephanie T.

    Pompelmo Gelateria was a stop for the 6th Annual Search for the Best Scoop Shop RI with RI Food Fights. I liked the unique flavors at Pompelmo Gelateria. I had their taste the tropics which had dragon fruit, passion fruit, pineapple, mango and ginger. This was such a unique flavor and it tasted delicious. It also came with a waffle cookie. There are 3 tables inside for seating. Service was great and friendly.

    AHHH so good! So much better than ice cream. There is never a flavor I don't like! The shop always smells like waffle cones when you walk in and the shop is very accommodating to dietary restrictions, with lots of gluten free flavors and vegan sorbets. I also work here in the summer and my boss is so nice. I love working here!

    Absolutely delicious gelato

    I absolutely adore this Gelateria. It's located in downtown Westerly and it is closed during the winter season just fyi. They have award winning flavors and a bright and welcome store front and interior. I've literally been counting down the days until they are open and I can go and get my first few scoops. Pro tip is to get the waffle cone, it's fresh and it's so good. I've tried a few flavors of the gelato and have yet to be even remotely disappointed. It's a gem of a spot.

    Having a stroll early evening around downtown Westerly, RI,before taking in a play at the local theater. Most of the businesses were already closed, and we happened upon this wonderful place. The flavors of Gelato were diverse and rich in taste, where all the customers' needs and palates were exceeded! Strongly recommended, and please try it out, you will not be disappointed!

    Lovely gelato [hole in the wall] spot we found searching for dessert in RI. The interior was super cute & there were also three tables with seats in case you wanted to sit and eat. The two boys working behind the counter were incredibly friendly and sweet! They let us sample a few flavors with a smile on their face. Being a coffee lover, I was drawn to the cappuccino gelato flavor & it was absolutely yummy! Definitely a cute spot to visit + amazing service, 10/10 & would visit again!

    Great place to grab a gelato cake for your gatherings and parties. I've had two parties so far with great custom gelato cakes. They taste amazing , the owner is very friendly and knowledgeable and just creates masterpieces !

    Cute spot

    I appreciate a couple who's gone to Italy to learn to make gelato, and there are few places to get a good gelato in Rhode Island (I'm thinking Newport and Block Island...are there others?) so this was an exciting find! As far as gelato goes, I had one I really loved (the chocolate cherry) and one that was okay (peanut butter). I'd say if you're in the area, it's a definite thumbs up and check it out. But I don't know if I'll make a day trip down to Westerly again JUST for gelato (but I will be back, I'm sure!) PS. The scoops are true Italian size, not American. Just to warn you, it's a small cup.

    We normally don't drive to Southern RI, but we had a voucher for the RI Food Fights ice cream passports. I am so glad it was included! The shop is small, but very clean and colorful. We were immediately welcomed by a young lady behind the counter. I never know what flavors to get anywhere, and she allowed us to try multiple flavors without any issue (we arrived around 730pm with no line). Each flavor was rich and creamy, it was still hard to decide! I finally decided on a small mascarpone fig and my boyfriend chose the Reese's cup. We both were super thrilled with our choices! We're so excited to go back to try other flavors! I knock a star off because they only have reward cards for medium and large sizes, and I usually enjoy smalls :(

    Rating: 4.3 Came to…read morestop by while walking around Newport. It's a small gelato/sorbet speciality shop. The place seemed to be older so the door was stuck and staff had to come struggle to open it. Inside is typical of ice-cream shop with counter and the cooler with different type of gelato/sorbet. They have variety of flavors and some interesting one like Dubai chocolate, mandarin and Maine blueberry. They do let you try if you ask so if you are not sure you can ask to try them. I ended up getting large just so i can try different flavors and it's also just $1 difference from each size. I ended up getting Belgian chocolate, peanut butter browny and chocolate chip affogato flavors. They were all very tasty. I was impressed by the Belgian chocolate as it was super rich chocolate flavor i was looking for a while. Service was good but the staff did struggle with the door and had issue with credit card reader too. Maybe should be more ready for customer when they open. Overall i still liked their gelato and would be a good stop for frozen treat in Newport.

    Tasty and kind service! Came at opening during a after breakfast walk. The door is very old and…read moreneeds lots of pushing by the workers to open so they prop it open at all times~ You can taste test many flavors and you won't be disappointed. Gelatos are very creamy and tasty. My sobert was refreshing~ good stop on a hot day~ good stop on a sweet treat kind of day~
