Great little spot! Fun staff, good gelato...Highly recommend the thick shakes.. a little hard to get started but will last you a good long while on a hot day!
My coworkers have been coming here for years. We use to love this place. The old owners were wonderful. But ever since the new owners have taken over the service has gone down hill. I usually get a espresso frapp. I know how theyre made. The old owner showed me. Ive gone in six times since they left and it has been made wrong every time, in multiple different ways. The whole staff needs to be retrained. Not only in how to make things but also in being polite. Whenever I said anything about it being wrong I get attitude. Its very sad seeing a place i loved turn into a place I warn people about.
Great flavors! Love the reward programs. Great that they have treats for your pups too! Everyone leaves happy.
Nothing but pleasant experiences here. Bring your hunger - portions are generous. I can see why they have so many great reviews.
If you are looking for great gelato, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!
This place has really good Gelato and Sorbet. We also got macarons. Perfect after dinner treats
It’s good gelato, I tried three different ones and they all tasted pretty similar, it’s also too sugary for me, but after living in Italy I guess it’s going to be hard to find perfect gelato in US... But it was still good, and this place has little tables and benches outside which is nice.
I live across the street and we come here all the time. Always good service and every time we come in, there are always like 10 new flavors. They already have over 30 flavors. Definitely recommend
Such good gelatto! Great flavours and big variety of lactose free options too. Sometimes they even have more options if you ask.
Ive worked down the street for about 2 and a half years, and I used to go literally almost every day. From what Ive gathered the owners changed very roughly maybe 6 months ago? Now Ive had friends go here in the midst of the owner change and they had absolutely no issues. I, however have had a couple of different experiences the few times Ive been since. The first time I went my friend and I got our usual drinks, we generally get their sweeter flavors for our coffee drinks, and they neglected putting the coffee in the drink. It was very busy when we went and wed never seen the girl that were working behind the counter, mistakes happen, we can get over that. The second time I went one of the girls I knew from the times I used to go was there and it was absolutely amazing, everything was perfect. So they do this awesome loyalty point system but the third time I went I got to checkout and Id saved up a bunch of points and finally wanted to use 1 of my free drink rewards.. annnnd all of my points were gone. A freaking bummer at its finest. They did offer to manually input some of the points Id lost. In the end i can say I really do love their drinks when theyre made right, its just the little things sometimes.
I love this place its delicious. They make great coffee here as well definitely my go to for a cold sweet treat and is better then any ice cream place around. Great flavors, friendly staff, and always clean and nice inside
Very friendly greeting today when I arrived with my son. We shared a black cherry small cup and it was delicious.
Scratched an itch for ice cream but not gelato. Low quality for the price. Service was nice. If youre gonna call yourself a gelato shop you need to try harder and get some cream in that gelato for goodness sakes!!!
I was not impressed w the service here and the food wasnot that great either
The variety of flavors were interesting and they had vegan options. Maybe it was my selection but it wasn’t super flavorful. Definitely had better tasting gelato.
Great gelato and great service! Love this place!
Went in for the first time today - fairly disappointed, though, and likely wont come back. Im giving 1 star for concept and 1 star for friendly service, but taking off 2 for flavor and 1 for value.The quality and flavor just arent there. I was in Italy last year, and for less money you can get a WAY better tasting product pretty much anywhere. Sure, the US isnt Italy, but even here Ive had much better gelato at this high price point.The name paciugo means mess or mush (as in, a bunch of friends got together with spare kitchen ingredients and made some paciugo for dinner), as I learned in the store. The marketing tries to make the franchise and its product more homey and authentic. Unfortunately, mess or mush describes the flavor profile pretty accurately. Strong notes of 1% milk (not even the organic kind) dominated both of the flavors I got, neither of which shouldve been particularly milky or creamy.In Italy, most gelati is served with whipped cream on top of the creamiest product youve ever eaten, for a fatty delicious treat. I would recommend the owners brush up on product quality, and for everyone else to spare the expense until they do - Talenti at the grocery store has you covered, or you could instead invest in some killer-quality ice cream and probably be happier with it.
The service and Gelato have been great everytime we have gone in there!
Im not a local of Denver, but driving through on my way home from a funeral I Went for local coffee..... Ended up in a place that infuses it with Gelato..... Wow.... Its 10/10 amazing..... And they seem to really know their customers from listening to them .... No more expensive than Starbucks but Im way happier with the experience
Just amazing! Went on a Friday night with my boyfriend, there were plenty of staff to serve the throng of people, the staff were friendly, prompt and helpful. They allow you to sample flavors before deciding what you want. I got two flavors of gelato and they were both delicious. The store is clean, welcoming and has a good amount of seating available. Even with all the people we were able to get served right away once we knew what we wanted. I would highly recommend this place!
This is a cute little place in Belmar to grab a cone of Gelato. I can only imagine how many sample spoons they must use in a busy evening! The best part of sampling is that Ive never gotten the feeling that I was imposing by asking for multiple samples... Theyre always eager and ready to help. The flavors are very good too... I got the black cherry and the coconut last time and loved both!
Best coffee and ice cream❤❤❤ with super friendly staff
Loved this place. Andrea was as nice as could be expected and extremely helpful. I strongly advise going out of your way if you want great ice cream and great service!!
This place is amazing! It is a family owned business and appears to have everyone involved. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The building is clean and welcoming. This is my go to ice cream place every time. I dont know what Id do without their amazing creations. Keep up the good work!!
Oh my goodness I love this place and its now my favorite coffee/ice cream shop! They put the ice cream in the coffee and makes it super yummy! I have been there 2 times now and planning for more trips. The best part for what they are asking is not a bad price!
This place is amazing! Best gelato in Lakewood. Everything is extremely flavorful! Highly recommend!
I like when they experiment with the savory Gelato. They had an olive oil one once that I served after a steak dinner. Yummy! Hope they do it more often.
Dylan is the best costumer service/ ice cream scooper girl ever! She has a beautiful smile as soon as you walk in and you can feel her positive light! Amazing costumer service!!!! Great job with your employees! They make this shop shine and they also make it a very unique experience.
As a recently converted vegan, Im always happy to see options on menus that dont include dairy for my sweet tooth 😊 There were multiple sorbet options and they were all delicious!
This place smells amazing every time we walk! Finally went here after dinner one night and the gelato did not disappoint! We got the cone with 2 flavors, the portions were a good size. They will also let you taste any flavors so take advantage of that!
A great ice cream shop for those lazy summer days. Although the selection of flavors left a lot to be desired, the ice cream they had was very good. I would definitely go back.
I never crave nor order sweet coffee because I enjoy a strong cup of unsweetened coffee but I couldn’t resist the temptation to try the sexy combo of gelato with espresso and wow! It is SO good. I ordered Amaretto Gelato with a double shot of espresso #NoRegrets
Since new ownership the stores policy surrounding the disabled and their service animals is despicable. If someone comes in with a dog and you tell them only service animals allowed and they state their animal is a service animal there should be no further debate, argument, or burden of proof. The attire of a service animal has no legal bearing. I shouldnt have to show ID for my dog ( but I happily did) Dont make someone make themselves more of a spectacle then they already are. BTW. The fake couple below referencing this review. You tracked them down??? Fake review is obviously fake. Nice try!! Sad! Treat neighborhood residents better and you wouldnt need your employees to make fake reviews. Ice cream is 9/10 however. Bring back Acai berry. My dog LOVED that flavor.
This place is great. Customer service, friendly, outstanding coffee and treats. Always get a smile from the employees the second you walk in. The best place in the metro area and enjoy coffee and relax.
My wife and I went here for a post birthday dinner dessert and really enjoyed it. We felt welcomed by the staff and were really impressed with the quality of the gelato. We are planning on taking our visiting family and friends in the future. Try it out, you wont be disappointed!
Ive come into the store two timeswithin the last 4 months. Its always clean, which I appreciate, and the staff are friendly. Unfortunately for them I am trying to lose weight so I cant enjoy their delicious gelato.its strange though because I dont see very many people on there at any given time. But then, gelato is very niche. Definitely worth trying. Its delicious.
Love this place. We usually go around once per week. Always a great selection The owners and employees are always super friendly. Highly suggest everyone go here.
Great decor and environment. Large selection of flavors. Unfortunately, the flavors tasted artificial.
Amazing food, great service! never had a bad time. I bring people here as often as i can!
Delicious, authentic Italian gelato with dairy free options as well. Very friendly and helpful staff. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
Paciugo is a great place, They offer some of the best Gelato in town with a variety of different flavors. which are all made in house! The staff is incredibly awesome like one of the young men who works there I believe his name is (Calvin) and the other young lady who was there Believe was named ( Dylan ) their customer service was beautiful specially because they looked very young. Without hesitation I would recommend Paciugo to friends and family members including strangers LOL.
Great flavor selection. The staff was extremely friendly. I will for sure becoming back.
Seriously - the best Gelato Ive ever had. Also one of the few places open til 10 in Lakewood/Belmar area. My go to sweet tooth craving :) And the staff is always super friendly and helpful! Infinite options for flavors - there is something for everyone!
I love the gelato here! The Berry White is definitely my favorite, but all the flavors Ive had are great! Wonderful service, as well.
Such a great place! Best gelato I have had! Different flavors daily!
Coffee and ice cream = best coffee, you need to try this combo
This place is amazing! They have many flavors to choose from and its family-friendly.
Wow! Amazing. Delicious, friendly staff! Prices are equivalent to regular ice cream but, a little bit of a healthier option. Im coming back for sure!
My wife and I love this place the atmosphere is calm but busy and the coffees are wonderful
Very tasty, Great flavor, with wonderful coffee, We have a latte double shot, with a sandwich and We really enjoy, was perfect combination for us.
Paciugo is such an adorable and authentic Italian gelato & coffee shop. A great selection, great presentation and a great atmosphere. Definitely will be back!
Love this place!! I was in the store with my boyfriend when the guy was with his dog and was asked to leave. The dog was wearing a choke chain, and had no service dog vest or collar, .and was very scary. He was very aggressive to us and a little family sitting next to us. The dog also jumped up on the display case, which scared all of us that he was that aggressive. The man was also aggressive and seemed to have no control of the dog. The people working here are always so friendly and super nice. I think the lady that talked with him was just concerned for everybodys safety. She asked him for his service dog card, but he said he didnt have one. I love animals, but am personally grateful that he and his dog left.
I had a hot chocolate with steamed peppermint gelato. Holy smokes! My wife, who isnt a big hot chocolate fan, drank half of it. Great people, cool vibe, and the best hot drink Ive ever had!
Always fresh gelato, friendly staff.. I am waiting for them to make a sugar free flavor one day. I always get a cappuccino but its a great cappuccino.
Great experience today! It was my sons birthday treat and they made him feel so special. Amazing gelato, as always, but the man that took care of us really made the treat the best!
Absolutely the best, better than ice cream. Cappuccino was amazing. Friendly staff and the owners Mark and Audrey are great people. The Coffee Chocolate Chip is a great choice.
Very nice people love it here good food an shakes. 20/10 would definitely come here again.
A latte made with steamed gelato? Yes! Delicious. Conveniently located in Bel Mar neighborhood.
Great place! Really friendly staff. Family owned! Met the owner, she was very nice! The gelato was delicious!
Had one order and tested great. Nice to find a Gelato establishment. Staff was friendly. Left me alone to finish payment and get receipt which was strange. Seemed expensive but I havent compared it to other Gelato locations. It was a nice unplanned stop while waiting at Belmar.
Just a really great place! With the beat cappuccino ever. Also the staff is incredibly nice. I highly recommend it.
Such a yummy delicious treat with friendly, courteous staff. We live in the Belmar area and visit quite often. The flavors change regularily and are all absolutely tasty. Definitely recommend!!
Omg seriously the best gelato Ive ever had
Has lots of flavors compared to the last time I was here a couple of years ago. Staff is friendly and helpful. I cant help but feel that some of the gelato is a little bit grainy, but I got sorbetto which I know turns out more that way! Great flavors, wish you guys had lemon though!
Excellent, excellent, excellent. The staff and owner are always friendly and helpful and dont care how many samples you try when the line is long - because they have other ways of making the line move. Each time I go there is another out-of-this-world concoction thats worth a try (the Rose gelato literally tastes like flowers - very intersting).Four stars only because the price point makes it a treat, rather than a random night out for desert.) Otherwise, its a worthy treat that the family can savor.
Great place! Love the gelato. So many to choose from. I will be back!! The staff is so very helpful & fun!! Thx!!
Fantastic selection, and the young lady behind the counter was great!
Nice selection of flavors. They even made me an Americano coffee with heavy cream so I could stay keto while my husband had his gelato. We love it here.
The service is always awesome! Great variety of flavors. A bit pricey but worth it.
I love this place. So yummy! Really nice people. Really cool open space.
Great gelato and awesome people. Super nice. Always a happy place.
Came upon this place on accident just looking for a quick coffee and were blown away! The gelato is so good and the staff was amazing! The young blonde gentleman, I did not get his name, was so welcoming and patient and upsold me on a galatte (gelato and latte mixed together 😍) and it was so good! Keep doing what you’re doing! We will be back!
Best ice cream I ever ate in my life. I wish I could give this place 10 stars!!
Gelato mixed with a shot of espresso?? So good, the gelato alone
The flavors change constantly. My favorites are the wild berry sorbet and the fall pumpkin flavors. In winter go for the hot chocolate steamed with gelato. (I often order it with the eggnog gelato)
Weekend regular for us. The gelato is great and the owners are always serving and working hard to keep the patrons happy. Great example of a small business in Belmar.
Owners are lovely folks and are always in the shop making the product and serving it up. I get the Limon whenever available, but they have a plethora of rotating flavors and I havent found one that I dont like. WARNING: High Chance of Addiction
Love this place. Owners are super friendly and personable with everyone.
Amazing ice cream and i love that i can taste the flavor before hand.
A great place for some delicious gelato, the best I have had in Denver.
Loved the hot chai latte. It was a perfect thing to have on a cold day.
The gelato was delicious and the girls were very friendly. I also loved the gelato and espresso !!! I will definitely be back ❤
Horrible customer service. I was a,regular spending a minimum of twenty dollars a week. is the flavor there that I love and I have now ask them every time I walk by for a month if they could make that flavor and nothing
Great service, quality ingredients, and warm welcoming atmosphere! The owner was able to explain everything I needed for food allergies and the gelato is so delicious!
Wow! Friendly staff, warm atmosphere and delicious gelato! They have a fantastic selection of mouth watering flavors and evenoffered samples to help you decide (which was hard) what combination you want to indulge in. We ended up here by accident but no question, we will be back!
Paciugo Gelato Shop is amazing. The gelato is fresh and the best you can find in Denver. They have a large selection if gelato and Italian ice, etc. They even have small lunch and breakfast items. Everyone who works here is really nice and get ya in and out pretty quick... even with trying all the samples if you cant decide! The place can be pretty crowded but it doesnt stay crowded and its really nice when they have the garage doors open to the outside seating. Its a good place to bring kids, have dessert or breakfast. Ill go to any place where the owner works along side his staff.
I ordered the cookie dough gelato and basically paid $5 for vanilla. I asked the associate to please mix some chunks of cookie dough into my gelato and she insisted it was already in there. Wrong. Will not be returning due to the sub par customer service.
Quaint place, genuine staff. Had a great dairy-free chocolate smoothie!
