I usually go for a mix of flavors and it's always fresh and flavorful without being overly sweet. The rose-shaped gelato is cute, but honestly it's the taste that keeps me coming back. Price is a bit on the higher side, but worth it for a treat. The staff is always nice and patient even when there's a line. Parking can be a little annoying depending on the time, but I've usually managed fine. Definitely one of my favorite dessert spots in Tampa.

Yay! FINALLY a gelato spot at the International Mall! It's been years since Duomo Gelato has come…read moreand gone, so I'm super stoked to finally get a chance to try Amorino Gelato. Even better is that they have chocolate hazelnut, and I'm always on the lookout for anything hazelnut, which seems to be something of rarity outside of Europe. Suffice to say, Amorino's gelato did not disappoint! Smooth, creamy, refreshing, with that distinct hazelnut flavor mixed with the bold complex taste of their coffee gelato (i got two flavors in one cup). The girls behind the counter were very nice and helpful and managed to swipe my card since I'm not able to pay via app??!! (you have to order and pay via kiosk) and it was overall not a problem. They have cute little outside tables that are shaded to give you more of that European sidewalk cafe feel. My ONE regret was getting a cup that was maybe a tad too small. I can't remember if I can size up, if so, I'm getting a bigger cup.

Hopefully I am not exposing anyone's secret spot, but Leads Coffeehouse is arguably THE secret…read moregarden of the Tampa-proper coffee shop scene and hang out. I had the opportunity to stop by last week with some co-workers while we were all running low on some caffeine and was extremely happy with finding Leads Coffeehouse. Located where some might call the "Cusp of South Tampa" (no - actually, no one calls it that and realistically it's only self-proclaimed branding is what's happening here), Leads Coffeehouse is right off North Himes Avenue, paralleling the main drag of Dale Mabry. It does seem like it's in the neighborhood cuts, but that is arguably a part of the appeal of Leads Coffee. The shop does not make itself apparent - whether you're driving by or deliberately looking for it. The signs seem to indicate a Guzman Law Firm, along with Networking Leads - which seem to be some sort of co-working space. However, if you look closely at the sign - you will notice the coffeehouse in fine print. Even as you are walking up, the coffeehouse appears hidden in plain sight - almost like a speakeasy, but for coffee, i.e. legalized crack for daywalkers. There is a parking lot for the venue, however the spaces are rather limited. Inside, you will find a very inviting space with home-y decor and color palettes to match. The seating appears very conducive for study and small work gatherings. Aside from that, I found the postal card mailbox extremely interesting and I will definitely come back here to take advantage of this offering. There is a "traditional" coffee menu with specialized drinks, along with a seasonal bevvie list. Additionally, you can order small eats and baked goods. The baristas and servers are extremely friendly and welcoming. Overall, Leads Coffeehouse is ultimately a great coffee shop to bring friends, family, and co-workers to share company with!

They chose such classic holiday flavors and dressed them up so cute! I will say, it was a bit pricey for the amount you get ($15 for the flight) but my friend and I shared it as a fun experience plus the shop was decorated for Christmas and there was a little market going on just outside which added to the fun! Overall, I will definitely be back for more festive coffee!

I stopped by Joffrey's Coffee & Tea Company wanting to try something new, since I usually go to…read moreMidtown Boba. It's a cute little coffee shop with minimal seating , a couple photo op booths and I saw some pastry items. ordered two drinks, one for me and one for my daughter. I had a lavender vanilla latte with coconut milk. The flavor was gentle, but I had a hard time pinpointing the lavender and vanilla compared to a similar drink I've had at Disney, which was delicious more smooth and memorable. This one leaned a bit flat for me. It also wasn't quite sweet enough, so I asked for additional sweetener (they handed me a cup of syrup), and I just added to taste ...but even then it didn't fully hit the spot. My daughter ordered the banana split smoothie, which is supposed to include strawberry, banana, blueberry, and chocolate. I specifically asked ahead of time whether it used real fruit because I wanted to avoid the added sugars and I was told it was made with frozen fruit which I appreciated since so many places rely on flavored powders. I also requested light chocolate and no added sugar. Unfortunately, the smoothie still came out much sweeter than expected. My daughter took one sip and didn't want the rest, and I couldn't finish it either. For about $15 for two drinks, it just didn't feel like a great value this time. I wouldn't say the drinks were bad...just not what we were hoping for, especially given the customization requests. I'm not sure I would come back based on this visit, but I do appreciate trying something different and can see how others might enjoy these drinks more than we did.

You can tell it's family owned and the lady was very sweet. It was very yummy, the bingsu wasn't too sweet but I do have to say that the waffle was. The portions were decent. They basically had whole cheese cake on the egg waffle. Would go again and definitely try the KBBQ next time!!
