Congelato!

★ 4.9 / 5 (470 reviews)

Nestled in Old Town Helotes, this charming gelato shop serves creamy, authentic Italian ice and gelato with a rotating lineup of decadent flavors. Friendly ownership and attentive staff pair well with roomy outdoor seating, live music and a garden-side setting, creating a welcoming evening spot for friends and families. Standouts include tiramisu and mint-chip gelatos, root-beer-float ice cream and made-to-order pretzels — treats so fresh some customers drive 45 minutes. Casual, inviting and flavor-forward, it’s a must-stop for dessert lovers.

Was Chris B at Congelato! a mag?
Italian ice at its best. A lengthy list of delicious flavors on their menu, we enjoyed several with our friends. Friendly service, live music, roomy outdoor seating for the several eateries in this cute complex. Bring your appetite and your friends for the evening! View all feedback.

Such a great little place. Atmosphere is awesome….Cute outdoor seating. We went during the week day and no line! Their Gelato is so decadent and creamy. We got the Mint chip and Tiramisu. Both were to die for! Will definitely be back!

One of the best Icecream I've ever had. I got the cookies and chocolate in a cup. It came with a chocolate filled pirrowet and a pitzel. It was delicious and filling. The man working was very nice. I will be back to this place in the future.
