Nestled in the historic Old Port district just a block from Casco Bay, we’ve planted our gelato spoon in Maine’s biggest little city. Boutique shopping, fantastic restaurants, and bars of varying degrees of respectability are all steps away. Our team scoops up to 30 fresh flavors of ice cream daily. Named Maine’s Best Ice Cream by readers of Down East (2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018, 2021) and Maine Magazine (2022).
Fall 2023: Our Old Port store hours are 12-11 p.m. every day. We’re offering full indoor in-person service, or you can order online for pickup. Delivery is available on 2DineIn, DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub.
The Gelato Truck on the Eastern Prom is open from approximately lunch through sunset on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays this fall.. Please check our Instagram bio for any weather-related updates.
