“I don’t even know another place to get gelato in Birmingham, but Cannella seems to have a pretty consistent menu. Haven’t seen too many seasonal flavors, but I’m impressed with how creamy the lemon sorbet is without any dairy it. If you go there and ask how they do it, they might just tell you their secret!“

Bustling and hustling during the lunchtime feedings. Fun and busy atmosphere for sure. Great folks at Gilchrests too - always the same dedicated, and super friendly staff at the helm. Must be how they have maintained such consistency and earned their loyal patrons!It's been a regular stop for me and my family for at least the past 40 years. We've all been raised together on Gilchrests limeades for multiple generations!! Yumsville indeed.“

“BBQ sandwiches were really good. Next time I’ll know to ask for extra pickles, since they each only had 1. They were still very tasty, however. My husband was disappointed with the “jumbo” swiss burger. It used to be his favorite but he swears it’s smaller now. (It very well may be the same size it’s always been, as he does tend to be dramatic, but he’s mine and I love him.) I also ordered a BLT (delicious!) and an order of both types of fries and they were great. The BLT had plenty of B, could have used more L, and ample T. (Mayo was on point but it isn’t called a BLTM, so….) Overall, I’m very satisfied and will definitely start eating there more often, again. The staff was wonderful, and the prices aren’t bad, either.Vegetarian options: They have “vegetables”, as in sides, and also salad, but it’s a BBQ joint so….Kid-friendliness: Kids meals are available for ages 10&up.“

“The food was great... The only reason why I gave a 4 for service is because they forgot to skip the onions on my bacon cheddar cheeseburger. And I gave them a 4 for atmosphere because there were only 5 customers including us there at 230p so I couldn't really tell how it would normally be when it was busy... Overall I will definitely be backParking: There is not a drive thru so you have to park somewhere. Well, there is not much room around store for parking and NO BiG vehicle will fit in the parking lot next to location downtown. The parking shared by everyone around location only has about 30 spots and then there are another 20 spots on street, some free and some with meter. There are 7-10 food choices in block for dining so it can be tiredsome to find parking but going during off peak times would help..“

“The service is good; the staff has been super friendly every time I've gone, and I've always enjoyed the experience. The cookies are great, and so is the ice cream. There's no real seating, and it's often crowded, but that's not a huge deal usually.It's just so expensive. You're paying a premium, here. If you love sweets, it'll be worth it; if you don't, you might be left wondering. That being said, this place is open late and serves up some delicious sweet treats that can be addictive.For direct comparison: crumbl has bigger cookies, and regularly changes options, but fewer options and no ice cream or brownies. Insomnia makes less crumbly cookies, and their brownies are so good. They're both comparable in price, so it's up to taste.Wheelchair accessibility: Should be able to roll in right off the sidewalk, although going from car to sidewalk might be scary because of traffic.“

“The milkshake was delicious and the young lady who made it was a shining star amid what would have been a very bad experience. She's a beautiful soul and even placed the additional tip I gave especially to her in the collective tip jar. However, when you pay $9 plus tip for a 9oz milkshake you expect the previously happy and talkative young man ringing you up to at least pretend he went to customer service orientation, especially as I was the only customer. Still, he is a hard worker and was wiping down the counter after ringing me up. He returned to his happy and talkative self once I began to walk away. I'm just very conflicted about the entire encounter. I think he was just having a bad day.“
