    So good! The sea salt caramel was sweet and savory. The coconut was so light but had great flavor. The spimoni was well balanced. The blood orange actually tasted like blood orange and not just flavoring. Excellent spot! There were games to play such as chess and jenga. The staff was very patient and courteous. Such a nice relaxing atmosphere. Please open a location in Surprise!

    Comfortable spot to snack

    Our favorite sweet spot! Our kids love coming here and playing the games while eating their sorbet! Everything we've tried here has been amazing

    Great selection

    This was a great little gem we were greeted as soon as we walked in and offered samples if we wanted to try any flavors. My cousin and my sister got Chicago Pothole which is definitely for chocolate lovers! I had the aluminum and it was delicious! Check out gelato tavern!

    Tried out the affogato this time and it was so yummy ! Would definitely get it again. ALWAYS love how vibey it is in here and how friendly and chatty the workers are with you in aiding in what you might want. 10/10.

    Such a cute local spot. I love bringing my daughter and husband here for a cup of coffee or a sweet treat of gelato! They have great service, delicious coffee & the gelato is just YUM. I stopped by for Mother's Day & they were even having a free raffle for moms. I also discovered a "Blind Date With A Book" section and that is such a good idea! If my toddler wasn't immediately trying to open them all I would have picked one out! Lol! Next time!

    Such a cute spot to come to! My mom and I got an affogato topped with cinnamon and edible rose petals. I opted for the coconut gelato which was dairy free. It was delicious and gave me the boost I needed to go on with my day.

    Continues to be our favorite local business to support. Owner is friendly, down to earth, and from our community. Business is always clean, service always good, gelato always to die for and affogatos are now life lol. Kids love coming here to play chess even though we have 4 different types of chess boards at home lol. 2 with dairy allergies in my home and this place is safe.

    Comfy seating and games to play

    Sooo good. I love that downtown Buckeye Is becoming a whole vibe. Refurbishing the town without losing history is a huge deal and The Gelato Tavern is a great part of that. Adorable shop, bright and airy. Good seating variety and games to play. They have a nice variety of flavors to choose from as well as coffees and affogato. Their vanilla bean is the bees knees!! So good, so balanced, so smooth. The young man working the counter was helpful, well informed, personable and efficient. Gelato Tavern is totally worth a trip to Buckeye and a no brainer if you're already in the area.

    Books $8.00 each.

    Stop by one evening with my family. The business is a cute place and the person working there was very nice. The gelato was just ok. It's not made there. Seems like maybe it's more of a coffee shop. My wife and kids also each bought a book from their "Blind Date with a Book" selection. Really a cool idea.

    Plenty of flavors

    Super cute little shop! They have just opened in old town Buckeye to bring us our own little specialty treats. A variety of gelato flavors - enough to give everyone something to like. Coffees, cocoa. There's some comfortable photo worthy seating, as well as bistro style seating. Super friendly and eager to do well in and for the community.

    Prices

    Just decided to drive to Downtown Buckeye and saw this place. I'm glad we stopped because it was amazing gelato. We had the AFFOGATO. Never had it before and was a pleasant experience. The prices were very reasonable. Shop local when you can. We'll be back.

    I've come back to this place multiple times, but the overall experience has been consistently…read moredisappointing. Most of the drinks are not very good, especially for how overpriced everything is. I have recommended this place to others, and they have said the same thing. Many of them chose not to return. The biggest issue is the service. It is consistently unprofessional. There have been times where I was the only person waiting, and it still took a long time just to order because the worker stayed in the back and only came out when he felt like it. On multiple visits, the worker has also sighed heavily, taken a deep breath, and rolled his eyes while I was ordering, even when the order was simple. Other people I know have experienced the same thing. It creates an uncomfortable environment and makes customers feel like an inconvenience just for ordering. The wait times are excessive. It can take up to 30 minutes just to place an order and close to an hour to receive a drink. Having only one person running the shop is clearly not working. At this point, the pricing, service, and wait times do not match the experience being provided. After multiple visits, nothing has improved, and there is no reason to continue coming back.

    Looks cooler than it is…read more Parking is abundant and easy to find! It's part of a shopping plaza, I went late in the evening so it may be different during the day. Staff was only one person, they weren't friendly; they weren't mean they may have been tired, but the friendliness was not there. When I asked for my drink I could see the disappointment in his face perhaps do it being tedious to make? I don't know. The drink I got was the Mangonada! A fun drink but it was all too good. If you enjoyed the Chimoy trend you may enjoy this! It was not for me, the balance between spicy, savory, and sweet was off. The restaurant was average! Great to pickup a quick treat but the design is basic. Plenty of seating, but not somewhere I'd stay for long. All in all, I'd come back to try more drinks they look cool for sure, but the customer service needs work and the design of the restaurant is up to the creativity of the owners.
