On 2nd street, somewhat hip yet casual relaxing interior. Lots of seating, and a beautiful upstairs with plants and fountain. Great menu and everyone is smiling. Recommended for late evening dessert! Oh, and they serve Delicious Gelato!

My first Gelato experience. Young lady waiting on us, Thurs? Fri.? evening, was so friendly and fun. We got to try a few other flavors besides what we picked. $3.50 gets you a choice of two in what looks like a small-ish bowl. But it is so rich, I couldn't have eaten any more!
Gelato is not the only treat to be had here, but it is the lead attraction. One can sample several gelato flavors, out of the 30 some options available, before choosing just one.

Simply delicious. Ok as far as ice cream goes these are a bit more expensive than most options. But it is old fashioned home made italian style ice cream, you get more than what you pay for. Be aware it's dangerous: they are so good it becomes a addiction.

I reviewed this place in glowing terms last January, and I'm very pleased to report that this place--even though it was rather cold outside!--is still terrific. Everything we had was just wonderful, and the staff members behind the counter are friendly and helpful. Just great!
This is the place to stop on a hot summer's day (or evening), or in the spring or fall...or an a rainy winter day. Francesco's makes superb gelato, AND they have excellent lunches as well. Most importantly, you can purchase gelato to take out and serve to your dinner party in the comfort of your own home. The flavors change...

OK, we all love gelato. This place makes some of the best I have had. Great flavors, fair prices. And you can get food here if you want it. Nice place!
This "restaurant" is situated well in downtown Corvallis and has a nice old European feel about it. The soups and sandwiches are nothing spectacular, but the gelato selection is great. They even give taste samples. The ambiance and location of Francesca's make it a nice place to stop for a break after a morning or afternoon of shopping or strolling...

It was a nice, balmy September day...so this gelato stop really hit the spot. A good selection of flavors & all very fresh tasting. Looking forward to trying more flavors next Corvallis visit.
