Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If only I could have had all the flavours!

Jan 2020 • family

This was a perfect treat for the kids and possibly their first experience of gelato. The store made each flavour look so appealing in its window and they allowed you to taste before you bought. The girl serving us seemed quite serious at first but was then quite mellow to talk to and offered good tips for the local area.

Owner appears to be an unhappy cowardly woman

Mar 2023 • none

This business is owned by a rude, contemptuous woman who literally cares about every single dollar. After one recent visit, I thought I had been overcharged so I contacted the business as I was 1) not sure if I had been overcharged or not and wanted to check 2) if I was overcharged I did not know by how much as I don't know their prices off the top of my head. So it was a polite enquiry which resulted an abrupt, unfriendly, unapologetic response from the English owner. It was established I had only been overcharged by $1. Had I known it was only a dollar I would not have bothered asking at all. After I hung up from the call, the owner then phoned me back to ask more questions about what I had bought, had I bought a gluten free cone which would account for the extra $1, etc (No) She then told me there would be a $1 credit next time I went in. I hung up again and then subsequently sent a message on Facebook to say that after having to check my bank account, phone the business, take a further phone call from the business, I was expected to ask “please can I have my $1 credit?” I told her I would not be asking for my $1 credit. I returned to work and she then phoned me again (I could not answer as I was back working after my break) and left a voicemail to say she would leave a $5 credit. I went in to the shop yesterday and when I asked about the credit, the girl serving started smirking. She couldn’t keep the sarcastic smile off her face, so I assumed the owner had been gossiping about me. Why? For querying a possible overcharge and telling her I would not be condescended to by asking for a $1 credit next visit?? The girl serving continued to smirk as she showed me the note the owner had left which said if this person comes in give her $1 "and no more". This, despite her voicemail saying the credit would be $5. This is apparently the low level at which she operates. I tried to send a message to the owner via Facebook as I had told the smirking employee I would, but wasn’t able to because she blocked me. How emotionally immature and how totally lacking in personal integrity. I feel sorry for her that this is the way she goes through life, unable to handle to an issue like a grown-up but has to resort to blocking to avoid being accountable. The husband is an equally rude and unfriendly person, unable to smile. He stopped serving in the shop a few years back, but now I’ve interacted with the wife and found her just as awful, we won’t be going here any more. She really needs to grow up and develop a more positive attitude instead of the mean-minded and cowardly one she now possesses. Smile more, be more friendly and open and life will be better for you Helen.

This might just be the best ice-cream ever. Everything about it is just delicious! Rich and creamy without being over the top and great flavours to choose from.

Not sure about dairy free?

Mar 2021 • none

I had a sorbet here, supposedly dairy free but it didn't taste like sorbet, more creamy than icy. My husband had a gelato and said it was very nice

Delicious Gelato

Always enjoy the flavours on offer at Gelato Mio. There are lots to choose from on a rotating basis - so you can visit several days in a row to try different flavours each day.

This is a real stand out. A young couple acquired the business and have added to the excellent quality of gelato and ice cream since taking it on. Really fresh and great value.
