Every month they have rotational flavours so there's always something new to try. I don't think I've ever been disappointed by their selections! They also have a rewards program and a two pint tuesday draw every week. My usual go to is their vegan GTL, but their hazelnut and pistachio scoops are pretty good as well. They are open late which is perfect for satisfying a late night sugar craving.

I ordered 6 inch ice cream cake with Cookie and cream on the top, Chocolate mint chip on the bottom which was birthday person preferred flavor. Garnish for Oreo, and crunch flavor for chocolate cookie crunch. Cookie and cream ice cream flavor was great. Ice cream texture was very creamy and rich. Chocolate mint chip had refreshing flavor and the level of sweetness was perfect. Both ice cream flavors paired with chocolate cookie crunch and coating chocolate very well. Chocolate coating was very thick which we really loved. Oreo garnish was so cute and butter cream icing was very thick and sweet. It was vey delicious and was a great ice cream cake, I highly recommend!

The air was also pretty stale which downgraded the ambiance however it was something minor.

Bella Gelateria is one of the best gelato shops in the Lower Mainland. I've visited this place…read moreseveral times to enjoy their gelato, which always has great flavor and texture. This time, I visited to try their limited item for the Hot Chocolate Festival. #021 Milano Tehran - A luxurious fusion of flavors, this hot chocolate pairs the rich, floral notes of Iranian saffron with the creamy smoothness of Callebaut's premium Belgian white chocolate. Served with an in-house-made cannoli piped with pistachio gelato. The white chocolate texture was smooth, and I liked the balance of sweetness. The standout item was the pistachio gelato in the cannoli. As usual, the gelato was very delicious. However, the hot chocolate temperature was too high, and it seemed to have lost some of its flavor because of that. It was hard for me to taste the saffron flavor or the floral notes. I think I will revisit to try a different item, though the gelato never disappoints.

I had the brown sugar brulee, and it was divine - not too sweet, the pearls were done just right, and you could taste the brown sugar. My husband had the mango slush and enjoyed the tiny chunks of mango in it. Also had the Hokkaido milk ice cream. Super smooth, creamy, and not too sweet. The ice cream is constantly being churned, which would probably contribute to the smooth texture. You can pay cash or credit, but they have a sign offering a discount if paying in cash. The service here is kind of lacking - not very friendly, and they always look so miserable. There's a tiny parking lot in back.

Had a birthday freebie to redeem and well...it's not really free anymore if you're paying for your child to have a scoop of ice cream as well, is it? So while my child was elsewhere, decided to head to Metrotown and treat myself to a free scoop of gelato. I ordered Matcha gelato and it was fantastic! There's something to be said about enjoying life on one's own sometimes. Yes, of course I like enjoying life with others. In fact, most of the time I'd probably rather enjoy these kinds of moments with others. However, there's also some value in learning to enjoy some moments of life on one's own. Perfect example: When one has a bday freebie to redeem and one doesn't want to spend extra money on being able to enjoy that free food with someone because then the food isn't actually free anymore! They make fabulous gelato here, and they have other non gelato related treats as well. Cookies, Macarons and Mochi donuts can be found here. I love that the service wasn't any less just because I was coming in for a freebie. That kind of service gives me more incentive to come and actually spend money at some point in the future.

Both their matcha latte and cappuccino were yum! Service was good; the lovely guy at the front counter helped us figure out what to order; that was appreciated.

I have been this cafe for many times, and recently dropped by to get some baking goods. What I got - Hazelnut supreme croissant and cheesy bite(cheese pull apart). Hazelnut supreme's hazelnut cream was sweet, so good. Dough could have been a bit more crispy outside. Some parts of croissant was a bit soggy. Cheese bite(pull apart) was the best pull apart I have ever had. Size was large, decent price and cheese flavor was strong. Dough was crispy outside and inside was so soft and buttery. So delicious! Highly recommend this item! Overall, I always love this cafe. I will visit here to get new item next time.
