Get directionsNonna Marie's Gelato & Coffee Bar
Nonna Marie’s is a family-owned gelato and coffee bar in the Village at Wexford, at 1000 William Hilton Parkway, close to the front entrance of the shopping center. The gelato is made fresh in the shop each day, and on a summer evening the line often runs out the door.
Nonna Marie’s Gelato & Coffee Bar: What to Order
The counter has a long run of gelato and sorbetto flavors, from pistachio and tiramisu to bourbon brownie, coconut and coffee, and a rotating set of dairy-free sorbetto such as lemon, blood orange, passion fruit and mixed berry. There are also dairy-free, gluten-free and sugar-free options, so most people in a group can find something. Most of the cones are gluten-free. Ask for a flight if you cannot choose: four small scoops of different flavors. The house favorite is brioche con gelato, a sweet Italian bun stuffed with gelato that reviewers say pairs well with a cortado or another espresso drink. The case also holds Italian cookies, pastries, cannoli and macarons.
The Room
It is a small shop with limited, cozy seating and a friendly dog who greets people at the counter. Reviewers like that the owners talk with guests, and a few have stayed to play a game of Rummikub or mahjong. Prices are on the higher side for gelato, and the cups can look small next to the price, so check prices before ordering several items.

Nonna Marie’s opens at 5 p.m. and stays open until 10 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and is closed Sunday. There is no reservation system; you join the line.
