Sips & Gelato
About Us
Newly expanded from Sips - Justina and Chris have now added Gelato to their family owned business. Just the next door down from their coffee shop you can find this delicious Italian frozen treat - Gelato! Their flavors are ever changing and even include dairy free options. With the Waffle Cones made in-house fresh every day you'll walk into the shop smelling a sugary vanilla aroma that leaves you wanting more.
Going back to Justina's roots in Italy, they decided to serve the popular Italian ice cream that is softer and has a more velvety texture than American ice cream. Gelato typically contains 70% less air and more flavoring than other kinds of ice cream. When you consider the fat content in ice cream, Gelato is a healthier choice. Because Gelato is made with less cream, it contains less fat! Gelato also contains less sugar and offers fewer calories. Since Gelato is a bit richer, a smaller serving will satisfy your sweet craving.
Located on the Gulf of Mexico Drive, we have beautiful outdoor seating looking out into the Canal. So, whether you are a local or just visiting the sunny island of Longboat Key - Sips & Gelato is sure to be your go to location for a scoop or two (or three) of your favorite frozen treat! :)
Finding happiness one Scoop at a time.
