They have a variety of flavors but their main flavors they have year round are the sweet cream , Olympia Fog, cardamom, Sally butterscotch and chocolate . They have 3 different scoop sizes in a bowl or cone and you can put two flavors in each. I got the Olympia fog and sweet cream and my husband ordered the mango and butterscotch . I highly recommend the Olympia fog for the tea lovers it had such good flavor to it. The sweet cream is their Version of vanilla so delicious and can be paired with anything! Salty butterscotch was also good and my husband loved the tartness of the mango flavor ! I loved the Olympia fog so much that I took a medium size home! We will definitely be coming back here ! read more

If you're looking for the best ice cream in town, try Sofie's gelato! It's amazing, interesting flavors, made fresh. She always has 2 dairy-free gelatos or sorbettos to try that are equally delicious. If there's a line, trust me, it's worth the wait! read more

A great place for a date! I would highly recommend going in person versus getting their pints (quality seems better) but overall lovely place with cool flavors! read more

If you're someone who's never before had gelato, this is where you want to get your first taste. If you're someone who's had gelato before, this is where you want to go to realise all the other gelato you've ever had was mediocre at best. I can't praise Sofie's enough! Fantastic crew, amazing texture and flavours, and OMG those waffle cones with a hint of cinnamon are literally THE BEST I've ever had in my life. And I love that they have GF cones, clearly mark their GF and Vegan and DF flavours, and even do rewards cards ... because you know you'll be going back. Even when you move away, every time you drive past Olympia you'll pull off the freeway and pick up a pint or four. Sofie & crew, we love you! read more

What a great dessert place! We stopped in after visiting the farmers market and am so glad we did. They had great flavors of gelato. We were able to sample different flavors before we bought which made it much easier to choose. You can't go wrong with this place. We will be back for sure. read more

A cute little ice cream joint at 222 Market, right next to Chelsea farm oyster bar. They had a good variety of flavors, my favorite is the Olympia fog, which is not something you usually see at other ice cream places. The service was good and very fast, although I knocked down one star because their waffle cone is cinnamon flavored which 1. I don't like cinnamon and 2. It's strong taste takes away the flavor of the ice cream. read more

Sofie's Scoops Gelato - Mango and Olympia fog - Gelato Near Me - Olympia, Washington

This spot is a hidden gem! I can't believe I hadn't tried it sooner. Local, raw dairy AND it's from grass-fed cows?!? Sold. They have a ton of great flavors to choose from (the salted butterscotch was delicious!) and they make them right THERE in shop! The guy explained that he makes all sorts of new flavors regularly and the milk was literally this-morning-fresh. I also really liked how they used steel spoons for sampling and not plastic. Bonus for having sugar-free and vegan options! This will permanently be my go-to ice cream shop. read more

My absolute favorite ice cream place. Always have amazing flavors and I believe the cones are made in house. Always a good experience here!

I frequent this place a little too much and should probably branch out on flavors, but I absolutely love the Sweet Cream/Chocolate combination. Other flavors I tried are also excellent and I love that most staples remain, but there are two-three surprises each time. The cones are delicious, too. The service is always friendly. read more

Best thing about this place is the FLAVORS!!! *You guys know how I feel about crazy-unique flavors and combinations! Actually ... 2 best things are 1) the gelato flavors and 2) you can watch the gelato being made right in front of you with this pretty cool, life sized mixing machine with a person hand making the batch!!! I've been on a TEA kick yall ... so I had the "Oly-Fog" Gelato (Black Tea + Vanilla) with Almond Gelato. Y - U - M !!! My only complaint is that the little tin cup the Gelato is served in is way too small because it's so good you just cannot get enough. The other cool thing about coming in here is that they share space with several other eateries. It is an eclectic co-op space so you can one-stop-eat and grab grub before you get Gelato. And for all the tourists ... they have merch! LOL read more

Long waits but the ice cream is totally worth it not a huge variety but just all of the right flavors

I am an ice cream fan, and let me tell you I absolutely love Sofies Gelato ice cream. If I could recommend my favorite flavors it would be Olympia Fog and Salty B. Their waffle cones are also delectable. Their venue in the plaza is very cute and clean, and their staff is helpful at answering all my questions. This is truly my favorite Olympia business read more

Always great flavors as well as options for people who need dairy free (they sometimes even have a sugar free option - just ask!). Their cones are fresh made in house and are out of this world (and they have a gluten free cone). Great local spot! read more

Really delicious and creamy gelato! It's located inside of the market building. I got two flavors: Stratciatella (chocolate chip) and Earl Grey with Lavender Chip. Both were delicious and very refreshing! If I ever find myself in Olympia again I'm definitely coming back! read more

I would say that the gelato is great but the customer service sucks. The people who work there look annoyed and don't look like they care. These people need customer service skills. read more

We tried their gelato and it was excellent. Their flavors were exciting, especially since they change them up every day. If you are unsure, they will gladly give you free tasting samples. They even make their own waffle cones. Delicious gelato and excellent service. read more

Such a cute little spot inside a space with a couple other eateries. Even on a cold day it was busy and plenty of people enjoying their ice cream at the bar. Gelato was so smooth and creamy and delicious. I tried the salted caramel and cherry marscapone. Excellent balance and not too sweet! read more

So good. And the unique flavors are amazing. The service is fast and pleasant as well. I definitely recommend!!

Yummy gelato and a super cute setting! I got the cardamom as well as the earl grey flavors and they were delicious. I would definitely return for the earl grey gelato again. It's located in a small food hall so there are other food and drink options on-site. read more

I LOVE this place. I'm not usually a huge gelato person (I'm definitely in the frozen-custard-is-king camp), but the waffle cones are to absolutely die for, and the gelato itself is so satisfying on a hot day. I will order the lemon gelato until I'm old and I've lost all my teeth, and then I'll still order it because being toothless never stopped anyone from eating ice cream. The service is also fantastic. They're often quite busy, but they deal with it well and keep on smiling. The busyness just tells you they're good. You can sample any of the flavors before you order, and I usually do because I decide "I'm super gonna to get something different this time," but then I get the lemon because it's addictive and I can't stop. Seriously, try them out on a warm day, or even a cool day, honestly. So good. read more

Subtle and unique flavors of gelato. I enjoyed a Salty Butterscotch and a Black Tea and Rose. I expected greater flavor intensity in the Salty Butterscotch. read more

We had lunch next door at Chelsea Farms Oyster bar and decided after seeing the long line that we also needed gelato. Super creamy and interesting (subtle and not overpowering) flavors! The cardamon was really tasty! I would definitely recommend this place for a sweet treat if you're in the Olympia area. read more

I'm a sucker for Gelato, so when i came across this spot while walking the town, i had to stop in. Must be a popular place because it was busy, the two items i tried was delicious and the home made waffle cones (which are made on the spot) was still warms and was a nice touch. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED read more

How can anyone give Sofies less than 5 stars?!?!?!?! When you walk in, you're hit with the smell of fresh, handmade waffle cones, with a hint of cinnamon. If you're anything like me, that's 2-3 times a week and at this point you should buy ownership in sofies or start scooping part time to pay for your habit. Sofies makes all of their gelato in store, in small batches, full of flavor. (yep, you get to see them working on it too!) You know the standard flavors they carry, like oly fog, sweet cream, chocolate, salty b and cardamom. But you hunt for the specialty flavors... it's like a mystery when you walk in! Stracciatella, say that 5 times fast...is my whole world. Whether it's dairy free mint, dairy free with strawberry, regular, espresso, or if you're taking my heart, it's blackberry. George Washington bush, or George Michael Bluth, is my baby girls favorite because she can't get enough banana. Ginger snap makes you sing praises that winter is coming. Lemon, orange dreamsicle and mixed berry have all of the summer vibes. Sofies makes fun flavors like olive oil, lemon and lavender, blackberry or strawberry mascarpone, plain strawberry, and so many more. They offer 2 dairy free flavors everyday!You can always call ahead to ask what they're scooping, because they switch it up each day. Most of the time I get a cone, but if it's one of my all time favorites, I'm leaving with a pint or two. Crater Lake root beer, stamp cards and Sammy Sundays finish off my experience and make me a 3x a week offender instead of 2. The locality of this place, with Sofie there greeting her customers, will always keep this a household name for me! read more

I can't remember the name/flavor I had, but I think it had rose and earl grey in it.... it was so good. I need to make another trip down now that the weather is getting nicer. My boss took us here for Admin Appreciation Day and it really hit the spot. Plus, the owner is super friendly and let us try so many samples. Lol. read more

5 stars does not quite capture how much we LOVE Sofie's Scoops. We have been coming since before they opened and love Sofie and Chris and their entire staff. The flavors are all delicious made with quality ingredients and a lot of love. My go to flavor is Salty B combined with either chocolate or coffee or some other delicious flavor. My husband is obsessed with Oly fog. Our 3 kids each try different flavors and there are never any complaints from them either!!! Summer or winter, rain or shine Gelato from Sofie's is the way to go!!! read more

Love their Cardamom flavored Gelato... I make sure I swing by and pick up a scoop every time I am in down town Olympia .

A wonderful spot where you can grab a cone or a pint to go. Everything is made in house, by real humans. Locally. Daily. It's tasty good and it shows in the freshness of of the cream and the creativity of the flavors. I had the ginger cardamom and it was so tasty! It had a nice snap, but not so much as to slap you in the face. The cardamom was subtle and just right. It was not overly creamy and left me wanting more. They pasteurize their own milk, use recyclable containers for single serve cups -even the spoons are recyclable! What's not to like about this great innovative gelateria in the heart of downtown Oly? read more

Googled desserts in Olympia and came across this place that has good customer service! My favorite was the lemon mascarpone as it was creamy and delicious. My friend caro got that and the butterscotch which made for a good pairing. Would definitely recommend this place - hence the 5 stars.

Yummy! Friendly service and delicious gelato. Easy access from the expressway and worth the stop. read more

Sooooooo this is the best gelato spot, and here's why: They make it right there in shop, small batch, with great ingredients. They always have new rotating special flavors that I'm excited to try, but also have some solid classics always in the case (like salty butterscotch, and sweet cream). Best of all, always at least two vegan options (sorbetto or coconut based) for everyone to enjoy! If dairy free chocolate is an option, always get it. Same with creamy citrus flavors like Orange dream. I loved that they adapted to covid lockdown by offering gelato delivery (!!!) And I'm grateful that I can check Instagram for their daily flavors (usually in stories, usually salivation inducing). Best in town 100% read more

Excellent gelato, great flavors - can taste the quality. I would go there everyday if I could. Staff is sweet, efficient. Setting is clean, welcoming. Great downtown Oly business. read more

I really enjoyed the flavors here, the Olympia fog was a great combination. The area was clean the staff were friendly but there was just one shortfall: The cone. Honestly, I want to give Sofie's 4 stars because the flavors ARE really good. However, I've eaten at a lot of ice cream/gelato/custard spots, especially the artisanal type, in the past few years and if you want to be considered above average in my book, you need to provide the full experience. Apparently Sofie's make there own cones (according to another Yelper who corrected me). However, the cones taste super sugary and deliver a crystallized crunchy mouth feel, likely from the melted cane sugar. I guess what I'm looking for is something a little more naturally sweet tasting to nibble on at the end, so maybe a waffle cone option would be a great addition. read more

This was the perfect treat on a hot day - A/C, cute decor, and refreshing gelato in fun and interesting flavors. I love that the gelato isn't too sweet. The handmade waffle cones are also delightful - crunchy and substantial with a nice bite of cinnamon. And they have kid-sized cones, which is the just the right size for a satisfying and guilt-free treat. Thanks Sofie's Scoops for making summer a little cooler and sweeter! read more
