This is a standard ice cream/gelato shop, but unfortunately, the flavors didn’t quite stand out. The gelato didn’t fully capture the taste I was expecting and fell short of what I would hope for from a homemade-style gelato.

The ice cream was so good that we went twice during our 3 days on the island. Loved that they had a gluten free cone! The service was outstanding!

I would consider myself an ice cream aficionado and let me tell you this place has some of the best real gelato and homemade ice cream flavours. It's incredible the owner makes all the flavours themselves, I haven't had them all but I've taste tested plenty along with having quite a few others and never not been impressed, it makes it so hard to choose when there because I promise you they will all taste amazing. Somehow they all taste so real like take the root beer, one of my personal faves, it tastes remarkably like an actual can of root beer down to tasting the carbonation almost somehow through the ice cream. The nanaimo bar gelato is another fave that tastes like nanaimo bars were smashed into the ice cream somehow and that's the theme you'll find with all the flavours.
I first discovered this after moving back to Cedar recently as some family was visiting and we were looking for a good gelato. We mistakenly went into another ice cream shop that's close by a few doors down, thinking it was the right one we had read amazing reviews on, but alas it was not and we were incredibly disappointed. We walked out and we were leaving when we came by this place and quickly realized this was the one we read about, but we didn't want to have another ice cream. We walked in and talked with the owner who was there, she worked her magic and had us tasting every flavour and soon we all just had to try it. It was all incredible, everybody was so happy with all the flavours they got and some nanaimo bars for my brother in law. She just really turned around a poor experience that night and I've been loyal since not only for the incredible service but more importantly the phenomenal gelato
So much so I even order it every year a couple times all the way out to Cedar on door dash and I am so so happy they allow it as an option

The ice cream was very good, but the shop can be a bit hard to access in a wheelchair or with another mobility aid.

Drea (hope I spelled her name right!) was such a sweetheart! Has a great attitude and very welcoming demeanour :)

Delicious in-house made ice cream and waffle cones. The smell of the waffle cones is what led me there, and the friendly staff reminded me that it had been too long since I visited. The ice cream was perfect. Thank you so much, you can feel (and taste) the love 🩷🍦 I had the blackberry cheesecake ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We were only able to get one sample and I didn't get ice-cream because their policy is absolutely trash. I'm never coming here ever again. L store

This is such a fantastic little stop in such a beautiful place! The harbour is a perfect spot to enjoy a cold treat, and they have so many ice cream flavours to choose from! The staff was also incredibly friendly and personable! 10/10 would recommend this place! :)

I don't like ice cream, but here...no choice!!It's really good????? Also so friendly staff and owners? The best!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The best ice cream we have ever tasted!!! The service was amazing. The ice cream was delicious...we had to go back the next day just so we could have it once more before heading home! No, it's not cheap...but I love that you don't pay extra for the waffle cone....but it's good quality & homemade...I'm willing to pay more for that!! I will definitely go back whenever I'm in the area!!

Real ice cream shop with some of the nicest staff. Made fresh in-store and many flavors available. Two evenings we ordered different cones, including Nanaimo Bar scoops in a waffle cone. If we stayed more nights probably would make this store our home base. Definitely believe quality products are hard to find and support these great licks that do have a fair market price. And if we wanted mass production products that are ho-hum, we could have chosen a lesser grade ice-milk business store.

Warning for vegans: Avoid the "dairy free" ice cream. May not be dairy free. My guess is at best lactose free.
I tried 2 scoops of the "dairy free sugar free" raspberry ice cream today. Afterwards I had the absolute worst stomache ache I've ever had, even before going vegan. After my drive back to Victoria, I could barely walk it was so bad.
For reference, I've been vegan for 4 years now. I've tried a wide variety of vegan ice creams, from store bought to specialty ice cream places. So I've been exposed to a variety of the plant based ingredients used to make vegan ice cream.
Until now the only reaction I've had to any was the Dole whip, which the vanilla in particular is actually not dairy free and has trace amounts of casein (dairy). I didn't realize that until after, and it was advertised as dairy free. That was only a little bit of bloating.
And lastly, those 2 scoops were the most expensive "vegan" ice cream I've ever had.
