As I delved into my first scoop, the freshness was evident. The gelato had a luxurious texture that melted beautifully in my mouth.

“ Hot day, perfect treat! We were exploring from out of town in the Camden harbor when a lovely couple recommended we take a short walk up the path to the brick building up on Main Street for some gourmet ice cream. We made the small walk up the hill and could smell the homemade waffle cones from outside. 1. The Place is beautiful 2. The owner is kind, generous, and very skilled. 3. The ice cream and dairy free sorbettos were to die for. My kids took one bite of the strawberry and said “wow this actually tastes just like strawberries “ And according to the owner it’s 4 ingredients with whole strawberries as the main one. NO Junk:) 3. I highly recommend this gem of a store. *Gluten-free and dairy free options * ”
“ This amazing little place with picturesque views of Rockport harbor serves the absolute best gellatti & sorbetti I've had - including in Firenze. Therese is the mastermind with a brilliance for combining flavors and a flair for unconventional approaches. Our favorites flavors are Lemon Lavender & Blood Orange Rosemary (apparently a touch of olive oil is the secret for this sweet, smooth amazing stuff). More conventional but no less exceptional gelatti include Pumpkin Spice & Cold Brew Coffee. Add to this that both Therese and her husband Garrett are outgoing and friendly make a visit to this little out of the way shop memorable and well worth the time. ”
“ Delightful unexpected pleasure! Gelato, crepe(s) and coffee in a comfortable cozy well designed shop. A must if you’re in any of the surrounding towns. We stayed in Camden. Enjoy! We did. Yummy. ”
“ Compact cafe with crepes, gelato and sorbeto, also beer and wine, deck overlooking the harbor, friendly staff ”
“ SUCH a fun stop -- believe the other reviews that the salmon crepe (all crepes are gluten free!!!) is phenomenal. You can get half and half in a regular cup for gelato - and the pineapple lemon verbena strawberry basil sage was INCREDIBLE. They do have a few (2-3) outdoor tables, but dogs are not allowed (unless they're service dogs). Parking could get tricky when they're busy, and it's easy to miss -- look for the hanging sign outside! ”
“ Man o man this place is awesome just around the corner from a cafe. Way more family oriented with food beverages and Gelato!!! Their food consists of a rotating crepe menu that is seasonally adapted. Beer on tap and excellent NA beverage list. Finally the interior and ambiance was just so inviting, hospitality minded owners for sure. And for a final touch all the table flowers were beautiful local cuts from a nursery near by. ”
“ Fun lil gem of a place. Walking up to the shop, they had a machine blowing bubbles out into the street. Great eye catcher. Cozy interior with attentive details and a good use of space. Loved the person behind the counter, was super informative. The food was amazing, and the crepes process was fun to watch. A new favorite place to go for a sweet treat. ”
“ What a hidden gem! We accidently stumbled on this, and were drawn in by the cozy, welcoming decor. Mr Right chose a rose ribbon strattacelli (gelato) and I had sweet cream gelato. Both were fabulous. I tried a sample of the rose ribbon which had an interesting floral taste. Didn't take pics of the food, loved the atmosphere!! ”
