Peppermint Gelato Cafe — Restaurant in Mobile

I was excited to pop in to patronize this place as I live in the area and had been wanting to pop in to support and grab dairy free ice cream. There was a lovely young lady who assisted me and informed me that there was dairy free sorbet but I am not a fan of sorbet but she did inform me that there was a dairy free chocolate ice cream and asked if I would like to try. She turns to the owner who seemed vey reluctant to let me try and as she goes to get it she turns to me and says this ice cream is only for our customers who are allergic. “Are you allergic?” At that point I said thank I am good and left. First off I don’t appreciate being interrogated about my health issues or having to be qualified to have a cup of non dairy Ice cream. Obviously I don’t eat dairy for a reason and I don’t think that should have anything to do with what I ask for as a consumer if you offer it. I could have been purchasing it for my grandson who has dairy issues too. Either way I should not have to explain myself to spend my money. What a shame! Needless to say I will not be back as I pass there every day and I would advise anyone who has a dairy free request to not go...

Absolutely love the atmosphere, love the gelato, the Turkish coffee was amazing, and the service was phenomenal.

We got the Gelato and Turkish coffee. The gelato was super creamy, and the Turkish coffee was so good! We honestly intended only to stay a few minutes for ice cream. But the atmosphere was so great that I think we were there for like an hour and a half.

Such a cute little gelato place. Definitely a great place to go get ice cream as a family or even study for a big test. They even have a chess board set up for anyone that wants to strategize while sipping on their coffee. We really enjoyed our time...

Went with my good friend a while ago. A lady there let me try the blue gelato and it tasted like buttered popcorn. Ended up settling on just plain old strawberry. I've always been more of a sherbet kind of guy, and visiting this place further solidifies that.

Still, a welcome edition to this side of Mobile. Also, to the Nafessah reviewer; this is Alabama. Just because your religion doesn't allow you to consume dairy does not make you the center of the universe. Feel free to pack up and go back home if you...
