Escape the bustling crowds at the Granville Island Public Market and grab a seat at this charming spot tucked away behind the Arts Club Theatre. The family-owned café is a serene space that offers a quiet alternative to the busier gelato stands in the nearby market. Visitors can sample a selection of 18 homemade gelato and sorbet flavours, as well as organic coffee and specialty loose-leaf teas. The gelato menu here focuses on classic standbys – tiramisu, cookies and cream, cappuccino and maple walnut, to name a few – and the service is warm and welcoming.
