Crema's Take
“Il Laboratorio del Gelato's rotating roster of unexpected flavors like Turkish Fig and Raspberry Cream Cheese makes it worth the trip from Manhattan, though consistency issues with texture suggest visiting during off-peak hours when the gelato hasn't been sitting in the case. The staff is genuinely warm and attentive, and generous scoops justify the price, but go in with realistic expectations—this isn't the flawless original NYC location.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.
