I've enjoyed some tremendous gelato and coffee over the past few weeks since discovering Allaus Coffee & Gelato in Edmond. While it is tucked into a non-descript shopping center behind the CVS on the northwest corner of Danforth and Santa Fe in Edmond, it is far from ordinary, in my experience. The furniture and decor are very nice... it is a great (and comfortable) place just to hang out with friends. There is a surprisingly inviting little courtyard just outside of their west side that should get crowded once it warms up.
I talked to the owner the first time I went in - this is a family owned business and these folks are very friendly and eager to please.
Their selection encompasses traditional flavors of gelato and interesting new experiments as well. They put out new flavors throughout the day. Both the dairy-based and water-based gelato recipes are used.
The coffee was good and strong - I had a latte each time I was in the shop. I didn't have time to find out where they get their beans but the results stack up against anything else I've had in OKC.
Allaus is definitely worth your time! They are one of the few original, locally owned businesses in Edmond, let alone North OKC.
