When visiting Boulder, I spotted this place and thought that would be perfect to pick up some items…read moreto take home. The two staff people inside (a young lady being trained and a woman--maybe the owner?) were behind the counter. My friend and I started to look around. I picked up a couple of items and my friend wanted to buy a few pieces to take home but was told she had to buy a certain amount in order to get them packaged up. My friend didn't want to purchase that many items but she wanted her items wrapped up to take home to her girls. She declined. I ended up purchasing a few items including one single piece of chocolate to share with my friend and it had to be eaten right away which was fine with me. We both left there and felt the atmosphere wasn't very welcoming mainly because of the older woman (owner?). She wasn't rude--just not very friendly. After trying the chocolates, I didn't think they were all that great. Definitely not for the price.

Never been disappointed with the food and drinks here. The location is stunning and just brings you…read moreto a higher vibration and happiness upon entering. They are usually pretty busy but on a Wed afternoon, it wasn't busy at all. We got the Swedish Svamptoast and a Cream of Mushroom soup. Best part? The soup had no dairy in it! Huge win for me. I destroyed the Swedish Svamptoast in seconds, as the flavors of earthiness, tangy/citrus and the creaminess from goat cheese couldn't have melted more perfectly together. Always a great experience here.

That being said, do be aware that if you come on a hot day, it does get pretty stuffy in there. At least it was on the day that I went. The teas that I tried were yummy, but my favorites were the strawberry tea and the Lady Grey tea. The afternoon tea featured a variety of little sandwiches, pastries, and scones. It came with a jam, lemon curd and clotted cream for the scones. It was a lot of food so do go hungry. I made the mistaking of having a small lunch before this. The small sandwiches were so delicious! As well as the scones with the accompaniments. The cakes did not stand out to me in any way. If you're looking for a nice little afternoon tea with a friend, this would be a great place for that.

The classic that long time staff agree with long time customers is Stracctiatella , chocolate flakes in a vanilla base and the summer regular should always include pineapple blood orange creamsicle. The staff and gelato quality remains superb and whether you choose west Pearl or east Pearl like we did tonight, you simply cannot go wrong. I was very happy with my Sicilian Pistachio tonight and my husband enjoyed his vanilla. Thanks for bringing such good gelato to Boulder years ago and we are always thankful!

It's been a while since we stopped in here. The menu has changed and so has the staff. And like…read moremost places around me, the prices have gone up, in this case, maybe more than others. Maybe rightly so as their specialized ingredients are harder to get. We sat inside this time though we used to go mostly mid summer and sit out. The patio was jam full last night so we ate inside where it was quite empty early evening during happy hour. My husband had the happy hour special of the evening, a very large serving of large mussels with grilled sourdough and a lucious broth. We also had some small plate tapas and I mostly grazed those. I love Bocarones and they do it so well though for me last night, the peppers were a bit too spicy. But I got the majority of the little fishies, my husband the peppers.. We also had the tortilla papas and the charred Hazel Dell mushrooms which were excellent. The little salad topping on the tortilla was full of specialty greens like fennel fronds and pea shoots. The mushrooms has a warm egg yolk on top to stir into the dressing which was tasty. We finished with their flan which was as good as my Spanish born neighbor made in my youth. I had a very nice tea with it. I was originally going to knock off a star for pricing but honestly, I don't think they have much option these days. But sadly we will go less frequently in the future.

I'd bookmarked Gemini for my visit to Boulder, in part because of its reputation, and also because it's VERY vegetarian-friendly and my husband doesn't eat meat. My faves: - ***Harvest Ratatouille - If you don't order this, you're a fool! ok, that may be harsh, but this dish was hearty perfection. A must-order. - Roasted Cauliflower - Tomato Crostini - ***Caramel flan - Don't sleep on this dessert. I've had MANY flans and this is among the best. We also ordered martinis (full bar) and they were great! Overall, an absolute favorite spot in Boulder. I'll be recommending to any friends traveling that way!

Coco Licious is a delicious vegan chocolate product that has serious chocolate flavor with healthy ingredients-its good for you and tastes good! We are talking low glycemic, raw, vegan, gluten free product that still retains wonderful chocolate flavor. I bought the Mint Heaven, sold in a plastic small box-the pieces are hand made like in a fun variety of shapes: hearts, squirrels, G Clefs, leaves, this is fun and beautiful. OK-taste? You will think its regular chocolate ! There are a number of flavors, and you can buy the product in bar size, perfect for hiking, traveling, and a healthy snack for work. Some of the ingredients are cacao, coconut and cashew butters, organic carob, and organic palm blossom crystals. A bonus-Coco Licious is made right here in your home state of Colorado, in Boulder and available at Vitamin Cottage, Whole Foods in the Boulder area (hopefully all over Colorado in the future) Each bite savored the palate, and it was a struggle not to eat the entire box! I highly recommend Coco Licious and look forward to trying many different brands soon! Kitchen Rocker
