Now presenting: Gina's Gelato Latest

Passionfruit gelato is back!

Suggestion: Try it as a frappe. This tangy fruit gelato is blended into a thick shake and topped with a cloud of our handmade, lightly-sweetened (with maple syrup) whipped cream. It’s a staff favourite.

Indulge.

You can expect to receive The Insider’s Scoop as often as Gina has time to step away from the kitchen to research and write (i.e. not too often — no spam here :). Use the button below to gain insider access!

Gina’s Gelato

Actual page is coming at some point (once Gina — a real person who really makes it all on site — has a day off from roasting & grinding hazelnuts and pistachios).

For now, we’ve got the necessities: a phone number that rings up our 1910 phone (come see it, it really works), hours, and — of course — a location.

Get in contact, get in our door, and get a rare-but-true, entirely from-scratch, traditional-ingredient gelato, sorbetto, and/or dessert delight (no judgement from us if it’s “and”) in your hand.

Though we’re told it’s unheard of (and that we’re crazy for not making it easy on ourselves), there are absolutely no pre-made mixes or bases used here.

Yessir & Yes’m, that’s right: We

pour the milk
zest the citrus
crack the eggs
make the cones
source individual, natural ingredients as locally as possible
and all the etc., etc.

We take no shortcuts so we can serve you naturally flavourful, meticulously-made gelato, desserts & delights.

You might say it’s like stepping back into the slow-food era of the early 20th century — and we love it if you do. It’s what we’re aiming for in our art nouveau-deco gelateria.

All of this sounds better than a fancy website, right?
(But yes, it is coming.)
(Eventually.)
