The Gelato Classico Story

Gelato Classico started in 1976 as a family-owned gelateria in North Beach—a neighborhood also known as San Francisco’s Little Italy. Word quickly spread about the hand-crafted Italian-style ice cream and lines were soon out the door.

Seeing the demand for our high quality frozen treats, we added retail locations in Palo Alto, Fremont, and Mountain View so customers throughout the Bay Area can enjoy our premium products.

Today, Caffé Classico’s headquarters and manufacturing are located in Concord, California, where we create more than 40 flavors of hand-crafted gelato, sorbetto, and açaí served both in our own shops and at restaurants, cafes, and scoop shops throughout northern California.

Though our business has evolved over the years, a commitment to quality is the hallmark of everything Caffé Classico does. We use premium ingredients including Real California Milk and real fruit and offer regular delivery to local foodservice establishments so they can provide their customers with the best possible frozen desserts.
