Editorial Review for Dolce Vita Gelato & Espresso Bar – by Bernadette Noll

In Short
Shelves upon shelves of liqueurs rest behind the counter, mottled red bathrooms have gilt detail, and tiny candlelit tables add continental panache. Although the flavors change daily, there are 14 or so to choose from on any given day--mango, spumoni, frutti de bosco (favored by those with a penchant for purple), traditional chocolate and a heavenly vanilla bean for those purists. Throw caution to the wind by adding a shot of liquer to your gelato.

My favorite coffeeshop by far. You must try the affagato...I know that word is not spelled correctly but just ask and their staff will surely know.They are also open late, so it is a perfect after dinner treat for those couples coming from downtown after dinner.

Pros: Expresso, Coffee, Gelato

Cons: None

I love this place! Super coffee and friendly staff. The atmosphere is perfect for catching up with old friends or just relaxing after a long day.

Sweet, icy treats for the lactose intolerant and dairy fiends alike in a provincial, Euro-swank Hyde Park hangout.  See the full editorial review.
