Staff is very cautious about CC - they use a fresh scooper and take gelato from untouched areas. The individually wrapped GF cones weren’t amazing but the gelato was fantastic!

Fabulous gelato with individually wrapped GF cones. Server very knowledgeable and flagged up those that are not GF (as have bits of biscuit in). Crematina particularly delicious

Staff was very knowledgeable about gluten and dairy allergies. They had GF cones and changed the scoop without me asking, and they had a ton of dairy free options.

Server spoke great English and said all gelatos except 3 in the corner were gluten free. Offered to get new tubes and scoop. Cones were individually wrapped. The mango was to die for!!

Great for GF ice-cream. separate cones. Almost all ice-cream was GF. Non-GF was kept off to the side of the compartment. The server understood the need to ensure there was no contamination.

went accidentally thinking it was the one next door but they have gluten free cones, and will use different scoops and take from the unused part of the gelato container. there’s one flavor with gluten and it’s in a seperate cabinet if you want to steer clear! delicious!!!
