Reviews Cafe Gelato

I come here every chance I get.  There's always a very welcoming and friendly atmosphere, regardless of whether it's just me in the café or there's a queue of 20+ people outside the door.  The gelato is second-to-none and available in individual servings (a cone or a tub, available with 1 to 4 scoops/flavours) to eat straight away or a "brick" to take home, which is available in 2 sizes.  There are so many flavours all made by the family that run this little gem, and I've yet to try one that I don't love.  From fruity sorbets (and a dark choc sorbet that is just 🤌🏻❤) to dessert-flavoured gelato (the tiramisu is a taste of heaven) and everything from the classic to the inventive, there really is something for everyone.  The flavours change throughout the year too, so you don't have a chance to get bored of having the same thing (not that you can!) - they do some delicious Holiday Season flavours that make for a nice, rich-yet-light alternative to Christmas Pudding.  The café also sells soft drinks, tea, hot chocolate and the best coffee in the city!  This isn't regular coffee, this is Italian coffee - it's smooth and has a rich flavour without any bitterness.  Being quite the coffee fiend, I've tried a lot of coffee shops, both independent and chain, and I make espresso at home.  The only place I have coffee without sugar is Café Gelato - you just don't need any.  To go with your coffee or other drink, the café often has a small selection of handmade cakes, biscuits and pastry treats such as cannolis that are also worth a try if they've not all been snapped up. The coffee isn't only better than elsewhere, it's competitively priced.  The gelato is ever-so-slightly more expensive than the café's competitors, but it's infinitely superior in every way and the servings are a decent size.  The café itself is immaculately clean.  And the family that runs this business are lovely people - they never rush you, they chat a little when they have time and they always have smiles on their faces.  As I said, I come here whenever I can, whether I'm with friends, family, on a date or just out for a wander by myself and fancy a treat.  Next time you're nearby I suggest you treat yourself too, and pop in for gelato and a Cappuccino Italiano!

Quality ice cream , first tried their ice cream at my daughters wedding , she had a van and picked 6 flavours for guests to eat , I had a tub of all 6 flavours , since then I pop in and get a double cornet while waiting for the bus , gradually going through all flavours , haven't found one I don't like , and don't expect I will 🤷‍♂️ . Always good service and can get very busy 👍👍👍

You can see the wonderful Café Gelato in the start of the film starring Emma Thompson called "Good luck to you Leo Grande" and it's currently on NETFLIX!!! Sandro & Jenny..... You do a great job. You're both film stars!??? A regular visit for us. Probably, no, definitely the best ice cream in Norwich and really nice people. They do terrific coffee too. Try Afogato... I haven't seen an ingredients list. I'd be interested to see one...... Good toilet too🙂

Highly recommend this place, very busy with lots of people queuing. Lot of flavours to choose from and very authentic, high quality gelato. The flavours tasted natural, not artificial at all, and just like the fruit itself. Service was great, welcoming and despite the queues, we were served quickly. I should go back and try more flavours and their coffee as recommended by others.

Well, if you like ice cream then you need to taste the silky smooth flavours on offer at Cafe Gelato. Rich dark chocolate and powerful pistachio are great but a true winner for me is the caramelised fig and mascarpone. I need to go back to try the others for a fair comparison
