About Caffe Gelato
Caffe Gelato is a halal coffee shop in Hull, on Princes Ave, with a menu built around desserts. Homemade gelato and sorbets are served in a wide variety of flavours, with wafers on the side. Pizza is a main item too, and the Nutella pizza and the Bueno dough pizza put chocolate-hazelnut flavours on a savoury-style base. The coffee beans come from Brazil and are roasted in Hull, and coffee is a regular order here. Orders are placed at the till. The shop is open daily.

Customer Review Summary
Pizza draws the most mentions, with one reviewer singling out the Nutella pizza and a parent saying their daughter loves the pizza and burgers, plus ice cream in a wide variety of flavours. Another diner liked the Bueno dough but found two pizza crusts very dry. Regulars describe weekly coffee mornings, lovely coffee and friendly, welcoming staff, and one calls the food tasty. Service is the sharpest split. Several reviewers describe cold or dismissive staff, including a customer who stuttered at the till and was told to step aside while others were served, and another whose single coffee and ice cream order was forgotten. Two reviewers report unwiped tables, with ice cream wafers on a seat and food on the floor. A birthday booking made online was turned away as fully booked despite empty tables, and two orders came out wrong and went back. One reviewer calls it overpriced. In one account, a server wiped leftover chicken off a table onto the floor and walked away.

“Came in today and unfortunately had a really disappointing experience with the lady serving us (she was wearing glasses). We sat at a table that still had the previous customers' leftovers on it. We politely asked if the table could be cleaned, and she replied "bare with us" (in a passive way with a face on ) which was absolutely fine. However, she never came back and instead started cleaning the counter. When she later returned to clear the previous customers plates, she still didn't clean the table again had this unwelcoming face on. We didn't say anything at first because we assumed she might have been having a difficult day. as there were still pieces of leftover chicken scattered across the table. I politely asked again her response in a passive way "bare with us". She wiped the food off the tabel onto the floor beside us, left it there, and walked away without sweeping it up. (By the way the way she flicked the chicken onto the floor was funny and rude at the same time) I completely understand that everyone can have bad days. I genuinely try to be understanding. But there was no need for the dismissive attitude we experienced. If she was struggling, I hope she feels able to ask her colleagues for support rather than taking it out on customers. It left us feeling disappointed.”

“We came here expecting a professional and welcoming experience, but unfortunately, the customer service was very cold and the staff were not friendly at all. We left feeling disappointed 😏 We kindly suggest providing your staff with some customer service training so they can communicate with clients in a warmer and more welcoming manner. A friendly attitude and a smile can make a big difference.”
