Dolce V Bakery & Gelato

Stopped in for a first visit. Julianna was cleaning as we entered and immediately stopped to greet us. The display was bright and appetizing, offering a nice variety of baked treats. My partner chose gelato, but he was torn between a snack and their hot food items (which sounded very interesting to try)!!! Juliana had the heated patio nice and inviting, and she had great energy. We felt welcomed and eager to plan our next visit!! Five-star for sure!!

Wonderful, cozy place! The barista was incredibly sweet (unfortunately, I don’t know her name 🥺).
Delicious desserts and such a warm, caring attitude.
We’ll definitely be coming back again and again! 😻

I went to try their pastries, and there were so many options to choose from. The service was excellent, and Emily was really helpful.

Thought the cookies tasted like dust and the gelato was like frozen vanilla frosting. Terrible!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Cookies and Gelato in Town – The Tri-Color Cookies Are Next Level!

If you’re looking for the perfect sweet spot, this place is it. Between their freshly baked cookies and creamy, decadent gelato, it’s a dessert lover’s dream come true. But let’s talk about the real standout: the tri-color cookies.

These aren't your average bakery cookies. The tri-color cookies are soft, moist, and beautifully layered with just the right balance of almond flavor and rich chocolate. They practically melt in your mouth, and every bite is pure nostalgia and indulgence.

And the gelato? Absolutely amazing. Silky smooth, intensely flavorful, and the perfect way to finish off a cookie run (or start one—no judgment). With a wide range of rotating flavors, there's always something new and delicious to try.

This place doesn’t just serve desserts—they master them. Whether you're a cookie connoisseur or a gelato fanatic, you’ll be amazed 👀from the first bite .

This is the best gelato I've ever had! My wife tried an assortment of pastries and loved every one of them. I tried a bite of her watermelon cake and will definitely be getting that next time! The barista was very nice and welcoming and the atmosphere is clean and comfortable. This is a great place to come hang out and have a coffee. We can't wait to come back and try more!

I was disappointed in our visit here. We felt rushed when placing our order, and the cramped atmosphere of the shop wasn’t a very pleasant way to spend a Sunday morning.

The chocolate croissants were overfilled with Nutella to the point of being unenjoyable - who can eat that much chocolate filling?? They took a few giant scoops of Nutella and put them in the middle, instead of pipetting the chocolate across the whole pastry in a thin line the way it’s supposed to be done. The outer 1/3s of the pastry have no chocolate!

We threw them away. Our local Caputo’s bakes soooo much better chocolate croissants every morning for $1.59.

The way our pastries were boxed was sloppy. Why weren’t they separated with parchment paper, like most bakeries would do for you?

Our order was $20; at this price point there were so many unmet expectations. Oh - and they ask for tips, too. Goodness, even Paris Baguette does a better job. Yuck.

My daughter and I love going to this place. Great service. The food - both on the sweet and the savory side were fresh and delicious. Cappuccino were delicious and you don't have to ask for an extra shot to get flavor, like I do at the big chain coffee place. Highly recommend this place!
