    Love a local ice cream shop! Visiting for the weekend and stopped by for dessert. They have so many options to choose from! I went simple with a chocolate vanilla swirl. It was so yummy! Parking in the lot can be bit tricky but street parking nearby as well. A few seats for waiting but no true seating inside. The inside is cute and charming.

    Wow this place has some great soft serve! The consistency is thick but also airy and light at the same time. I got the black raspberry with sprinkles (4/5) and my sister got the black raspberry vanilla twist with cookie dough (5/5!!). The black raspberry flavor was sweet with a hint of tartness. It tasted like the fruit and was very good. However, after trying my sister's I prefer the black raspberry with the vanilla twist as it gave it more sweetness and the vanilla complements the tartness of the black raspberry very well. I also recommend to get the cookie dough topping for $1 extra as they gave a huge portion on top of the cone AND a second scoop in the middle of the cone. The cookie dough was delicious and filled with mini chocolate chips. The sprinkles topping is 77 cents but cookie dough all the way. I'd love to come back here to try their different flavors!

    Gruto's is an absolutely adorable little soft serve shop with funny snarky signs, a long line and the sweetest lady running the counter. You can tell this place is a neighborhood staple with how busy it is, and WELL worth the wait. Ice cream was really good, there's a lot of creative menu choices and customizations. Super friendly service.

    Stopped at Grutos after dinner and it did not disappoint! I opted for the black raspberry milkshake, it was to die for. The perfect treat while exploring downtown Leesburg on first Friday. Definitely will return in the future.

    Omgosh!! If you are just tired of basic ice-cream and need your sugar fix, well look no further GRUTO's Is here. I have been to this location several times, but what is impressive that they have introduce some fall flavors, such as pumpkin pie and caramel. Service is always amazing, they can give you a taste of the different soft serve before you commit to the a flavor of your liking; the portions are good! Please don't ever change your recipe and service!!

    This is a classic spot! Very good soft serve and unique ice cream combos/sundaes. If you have kids, get a small - the portions are pretty huge! And for a large/medium can be upwards of $7 or $8. Try "The Elvis" for a little surprise! The man working the counter last night was super nice and made the experience fast and easy. We also ate right outside, lots of tables!

    The staff is amazing, kind, and quick. The soft serve tastes pretty great, as well. Not only that, but the posters on the walls make the place seem super friendly.

    The line was pretty long, and there was only one person working.He was warning his tips, though! Ice cream very good. The waffle cone was fresh and crunchy.

    I'm a huge soft serve fan and have been on the hunt for a local ice cream shop with good soft serve. Gruto's is in downtown Leesburg and has raspberry, vanilla, raspberry vanilla twist, chocolate, banana, chocolate banana twist, and a variety of other treats. My husband and I split a raspberry cyclone, which is like a DQ Blizzard, with brownie and raspberry soft serve. The brownie bites were big and moist and had chocolate chips in them! Portion size was huge. I can't wait to bring my kids here!

    This is one of my favorite places to stop when I am in Leesburg! The black raspberry flavor and bananas are the best! This is a super cute, cozy ice cream shop that has a family owned vibe. I love the décor they have on the walls and the new GRUTO's accent wall for photos. I would highly recommend!

    After visiting Mocatinas for dessert, my friends and I knew we had to try this place for our yearly…read morehigh tea/afternoon tea. This place is just stunning...the dining area, stairs with positive messages, the ordering/"shopping", even the bathroom! The service is just exceptional, above and beyond. It was a seameless process to make the reservation online and edit as needed. There were automatic emails and texts for the reservation confirmation and reminder. Each afternoon tea includes 2 pots of tea, 1 macaron/person, and additional bites (savory & sweet). Luckily, there were 2 of us, so we each ordered our own teas. I'm not sure how flexible they are if requesting additional tea pots for larger parties (max 8 people). The weekdays tea is $35/person, weekends $40/person (needs a reservation). There is an 18% gratuity to all the final bill regardless of the number of people in the party. I would highly recommend the Thai tea...I don't add any sugar or cream to my tea and it was still so tasty. I ordered the coconut macaron, which is the newest addition the the macaron family. Parking: there is parallel parking available in front of and around the establishment. There is also a parking garage roughly 1 block (walking distance), which is free on the weekends. If planning a visit on the weekdays, be sure to read the parking signs carefully. I would definitely return to try other items on their menu.
