Maple cookie
Alex J.

Go to a gelato shop and not get gelato? Crazy, I know, but there is much more than just gelato here! This is like a gift shop of goodies, treats, sweets and snacks all in the name of Canada! Of course, given the touristic area, it makes sense, but there is some genuine stuff here. After taking a look around, we saw the maple cookies being sold both in boxes and individually or loose. 5 cookies were $2 so we chose three maple cookies and two of the chocolate cream cookies. The chocolate cream cookies were no big deal. The cookie itself was crispy but the chocolate cream was a bit too fluffy and not chocolatey enough. On the other hand, the maple cookies were delicious. The cookies were great and the maple filling really tasted like maple! A good amount of cream and a nice bite each time. Service is great too, many friendly employees helping out whoever and however they can.

A great stop anytime for some great tasting and refreshing gelato! Oh Gelato offers 66 flavours of gelato to choose from plus candy, taffy, cookies, gifts, Italian sodas, and souvenirs. They stock Maple Cream Cookies, yummy!!! Free samples are given on the gelato. The scoops are small, just under $6 for a two scoop dish, but soooo good! Outdoor sidewalk seating out front.

Oh Gelato! is just a little hole in the wall store off Government that has lots of flavors to choose from. The place doesn't just do gelato though; they sell all kinds of sweets inside including fudge, syrup, candy, cookies and salt water taffy. They also serve these weird pie things on a stick (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oh-gelato-victoria?select=iTfHXmDPZFOtLuxgzUQYbQ). You're allowed to sample one of their many flavors before committing to one, it's hard to pick since they have lots of unusual flavors. The Guinness beer flavored (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oh-gelato-victoria?select=LvVJ9MI7X0SxZ7-5NCkstw) gelato is the kind of stuff I'm referring to, I didn't try it but it seems like a really weird choice for a flavor. According to the lady behind the counter, all the gelato is made on site and they are cycling fresh flavors constantly. Some of the other reviewers here seemed to complain about the prices, but I didn't really think they were too high. They give you two large generous scoops in a cup with a slice of a waffle cone with your order. The maple walnut seemed like a popular local Canadian flavor, so I went with that and some cookies&cream (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/oh-gelato-victoria?select=Jnjy6X5aRfTe0cfzWBk_tA). The gelato here was really good stuff, had great creamy texture and a balanced sweetness to it. The walnut crunch flavor was good with the subtle maple. Even though I'm not a fan of waffle cones, the single piece of waffle was good too. This was a decent place to get a cold treat for the day. There is no seating inside this place, only a bench on the street outside. As it was pouring rain at the time, I just decided to stand and wait it for to stop while eating my gelato. One weird thing to note is that there is a store almost identical to this one down the way, with a vague name on the outside. They also sell the same products but didn't have nearly as many flavors.

The ice cream is so icey and bland. I ordered a basic chocolate flavour and couldn't have a second bite. Overpriced and rude staff :/

A lot of variety!!! It's expensive, taste is good but I have tasted way better and cheaper ice creams. The store is small and every crowded.

Best soft serve I have ever had!…read more We stopped at Chocolate Favoris on an evening in mid May, when our cruise ship, Norwegian Bliss, docked in Victoria for the evening. We walked into the downtown area and browsed some shops. We decided to grab a sweet treat before walking back to our ship. After walking in and out of a few other ice cream shops, we noticed Chocolate Favoris and went in to check it out. We immediately noticed that this spot was different. All four of us ordered a different soft serve dessert and we were blown away. I had chocolate with hazelnut spread and hazelnut chocolate candies in a waffle cup. Amazing! We devoured our treats on the walk back to our ship and they were, by far, the best part of our short visit to Victoria and the best soft serve any of us had ever had. Highly recommend!

Got a sweet tooth? Chocolats Favoris is where it's at! The soft serve is smooth, creamy, and…read morevelvety, then dipped in a thick layer of delicious chocolate with plenty of toppings and flavors to choose from. There are so many combinations that it's almost hard to decide what to get. It does get pretty busy, and I didn't find the staff to be quite as friendly or welcoming as some of the other places I visited in Victoria. That said, they keep things moving and get you served quickly even when there's a crowd. Rich, indulgent, and incredibly satisfying. If you're craving something sweet while exploring Victoria, it's definitely worth checking out!
