Benino Italian Café Gelato - Comox

The ice cream here is the best place in town by far and the ingredients they use are all high quality. very good sandwiches too overall 9.5/10 would recommend the ice cream

Super friendly staff and very good gelato. It's super cute inside here too, definitely would come back again when I'm in town next.

The food, coffee, and ice cream are all very tasty and this place has the potential to be a great spot, but they were extremely understaffed and made waiting for two crepes, a panini, and a cup of coffee inconvenient. We waited easily over 45 minutes for our simple order to be brought to us. We had to remind them we were waiting for food at least 3 times. I felt bad for the cashier and the barista because I knew they were understaffed, this comes down to management, not them

: Just drove across town to try this place out to find a handwritten note that they closed 3 hours early

I have stopped here a few times while in the area. The servers are nice, the servings are a generous size when compared to most gelato shops, they let you have two flavours when ordering a single scoop, they have a nice range of safe and adventurous flavours, and most importantly, the gelato is creamy, smooth, rich, and flavourful! There is also comfortable seating inside and it is clean and neat. I would definitely recommend this place. Their gelato beats the competition in a certain chocolate shop in downtown Courtenay hands-down!
