Petals Creamery

Petals Creamery has a really nice design and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful. The ice cream was good and creamy, but not particularly special compared to other places. Still, it’s a pleasant spot to stop by for a treat.

I love this amazing new spot—it’s my go-to local ice cream place, and I was hooked from the first glance! I tried their affogato, and it was absolutely delicious. The best part? They let me pick my favorite ice cream as the base. The vibe is so cozy, perfect for a sweet treat after work. The staff is super friendly—they even recommended their homemade waffle cones! I’m definitely coming back 😋❤️

Really nice place with a welcoming atmosphere and friendly service. The pastries were fresh and delicious, and the ice cream was rich and flavorful. It is a bit on the expensive side, but the quality and experience make it worth trying at least once.

This has become one of my top 3 creamery. Flavors are on the spot. Call on all Persian ice cream lovers. The saffron flavor was amazing. The lavender was not soapy at all, but just a beautiful backdrop hint. The cantaloupe flavor was smooth with a touch of cardamom. Amazing service added to a classy dining area makes this a perfect place for a unique treat.

Delicious ice cream made fresh in the shop by the chef, very cool to see through the kitchen window. The desserts are delicious too, will definitely be back over the trip

Came here on my lunch. Such a cute spot for casual dates or meetings during the day. We had some samples. Saffron icecream was yummy. We got an affofato. We got to meet the chef too. 😍

Petals Creamery in LG has a cool, welcoming vibe with plenty of stylish seating to enjoy your treat. I tried the Parisian Cookie Monster and Telebi (Cantaloupe)—both really unique and thoughtfully crafted. It takes real skill to balance ice cream flavors that stay true to natural fruit, and they nailed it. The Saffron scoop was light, neutral, and subtly elegant. It’s definitely more of an acquired taste if you’re used to traditional ice cream flavors, but absolutely worth a try if you’re into culinary exploration. I’d come back to sample more!

Delicious ice cream!! It’s all totally homemade by a real pastry chef. Best saffron ice cream I’ve ever tasted, and the pastries were unique and yummy as well. Definitely will be back

It's weird that I feel compelled to say this, but... I want my ice cream to taste like the thing that it says it tastes like. That's what I like about Petals. The ice cream has strong, deliberate flavor. They make a flavor promise, and they deliver. I've been so disappointed in other ice cream shops this year. So much thoroughly mediocre frozen milk that tastes like almost nothing. I ordered the Turkish Coffee ice cream. Two scoops. Got quite a buzz from it. And it tasted like COFFEE. So good that I'm still thinking about it, long after my visit. (I'd strongly consider driving over there right now, in the middle of the night, if they were open.) My buddy forced me to order the saffron creme brulee on the side, even when I told her I don't like creme brulee. It was definitely the best creme brulee I've ever had. You should definitely get that if you actually like creme brulee. And I had the halva cake. Strong classic halva flavor. Obvious why they sell so much of it. So yeah, you should definitely try this place. It was a relief to finally have some ice cream that tasted like it had actual ingredients. (Disclaimer: It turns out I know some of the people who work here. But I would gladly tell them if it was disgusting. So don't worry about that.)

What an adorable family owned business. When visiting family in Los Gatos I stumbled upon this cute little ice cream shop with delicious pastries, coffees and teas. I was able to meet the owners, who were very friendly and excited to talk to me about their menu items. Being from LA, I know my Persian sweets and ice cream. I was BLOWN AWAY by the ice cream here, I mean WOW! I can't wait to come back and try more of their deliciousness! Thanks Nathan and Marcel for this unforgettable experience.

Outstanding place for ice cream including many flavors that you will not find elsewhere such as Saffron, Pistachio Mint Stracciatella and Baklava! This is a real gem in Los Gatos. The servers are very helpful and eager to have you try samples of flavors that you are interested in before you commit. They also offer the Salt & Straw style "split scoop" where you can combine two flavors into a single scoop -- and they are very generous on this, it ends up being more like 2 individual scoops. Very highly recommended! Beautiful interior decor as well which I was told was done by the chef. What a multi-talented person!

Unique Turkish/Persian flavors of ice cream, like Cardamom Chocolate, Saffron, or Rose Water. The decor and interior are nice and welcoming. I got a cup of the Cardamom Chocolate, which had some cardamom but mostly tasted like regular chocolate ice cream. I tried the Baklava flavor, which was very sweet. I'd come back to try other ice cream flavors and find a favorite one.

The vibe is exotic creamery! Audrina warmly greeted us! She is so nice! Baklava. Wow! Choco Cardamom. Exotic finish! Parisian BDay. Cookie monster would love it! Watermelon. Not my bag. Turkish coffee! AMAZING! Love the flight! Would order 3 out of 4 flavors again! Woohoo!

Beautiful atmosphere. Plenty of street parking. Great location in downtown Los Gatos. Lots of pretty desserts. Interesting taste combinations. I had to sample this a lot because I had never been here before and I did not know what I wanted to get. They have a lot of interesting combinations of flavors that are based on a different type of taste palette so it was a little bit of a challenge for me to find a flavor that I was Willing to get. The woman behind the counter was super patient with me and willing to help me sample several flavors before I finally settled on vanilla bean, but I got a tiramisu topping on top of it, which was really fun. She actually placed some of the syrup on top of my ice cream and then Blow torch the top of the ice cream and that made it super delicious. The person I was with got Turkish coffee, which was an interesting flavor combination. He actually ended up liking my vanilla bean with the tiramisu topping more. Cute date spot. Highly recommend trying it once.

Vibe: 5/5 Service:4/5 Ice cream: 5/5 Value: 4.5/5 Now that's what I call ice cream. Ultra creamy, full of flavor, and just the right amount of natural sweetness. I was instantly transported to Europe and enjoyed the quality I'd been missing for so long. Go,visit them now. Don't be shy about asking for a taste. The wonderful staff is more than happy to let you try their delectable flavors.

New ice cream spot in DT. They have a lot of special flavors like rose water (Iranian flavors so unique and delicious) . I tried the saffron with fresh pistachio wow!

I stopped by Petals Creamery in Los Gatos; This Persian-focused ice cream shop had a soft opening to the public May 4 only. I talked with the owner Nathan Gaudreau. The grand opening will likely be Saturday May 17, or Saturday May 24 at the latest. I sampled most of the flavors. Here are my rankings: These are premium flavors: $9/scoop: - 4.5/5: Saffron. Quite good. But saffron is a numbing flavor; the first few bites are great, but then your tongue adapts quickly, and it doesn't taste like much. - 4.0/5: Orange blossom creamsicle. Nice spice blend to go with the orange. But the clotted cream chunks freeze too hard. - 3.0/5: Pistachio mint stracciatella. It's really mint with a hint of pistachio. - 3.5/5: Marcona milk: Uses house-made almond milk. It has a subtle lemon/citrus flavor. These flavors are $7/scoop: - 5.0/5: London Fog: Excellent. They add Lavender to complement the flavor. - 4.0/5: Baklava. Too much cardamom flavor, but good otherwise. - 3.0/5: Turkish Coffee: Too much cardamom flavor. The coffee flavor is not strong enough. - 3.0/5: Cardamom chocolate: Too much cardamom flavor masks the chocolate. - Vanilla (did not sample) - Parisian Cookie monster with natural blue coloring (did not sample) I tried one scoop of saffron ice cream ($9) in a baklava bowl ($7). The ice cream was great. But the baklava bowl just doesn't work. They are still experimenting and will likely tweak things. They also have pastries, like a saffron creme brulee $9. For ice cream geeks, here are the specs: - The pastry chef Marcel Khorsand was trained in France, so the ice creams are heavy custard style: the formulation is high in fat, at 18% butterfat, and is loaded with egg yolks. People with egg allergy must be careful. - They make everything from scratch, and do the full pasteurization pipeline in-house. It took them 2 years to get all the permits to become a full-on dairy processor. - The ice creams are less sweet: It shows off the flavor better, which is nice. They use agave and honey for part of the sweetener, to have a somewhat lower glycemic index. - They churn on-site using an Emery Thompson batch freezer. - Similar to Eataly, all ice creams are stored in a pozetti cabinet, where each ice cream is under a silver lid; you can't see the ice creams, but they get better temperature control.

A welcome addition to the downtown Los Gato scene! The decor is very tastefully done and classy. The ice cream is made right there in the back and the flavors are unique and delicious. I got to taste several different flavors and decided to keep it simple and get the signature saffron ice cream, which was subtle and tasty. The young lady who helped me was super friendly. Best wishes to Petals!

Artisan ice cream! Just incredible! Very unique flavors. Wish I could sit and try them all!

Really great ice cream shop in the heart of LG! Freshly made ice cream with great flavors :) they have everything from pastries, cookies, cupcakes, teas, Turkish coffee and lattes. Great place to catch up with friends! Great service and beautiful ambiance :)

Delicious and unique ice cream. I had the Orange Blossom Creamsicle and a few bites of Pistachio Mint Chip. I could tell the orange flavoring was more natural compared to the artificial flavoring. There was a line inside and it was held up by kids sampling more than two flavors, but I'm sure that doesn't happen often. It was worth the wait. It's also cool to see how it's made through a window.

We stumbled upon Petals Creamery while walking around downtown Los Gatos, and it was super cute! The interior had sage green walls, neon signage, a cool lighting panel on the ceiling, and comfortable booth seating. The Persian-inspired ice cream flavors were very intriguing! I tried the Turkish Coffee and Baklava flavors (they give such tiny samples), but the Marcona was my favorite. It was the strongest almond flavor I've ever come across and the texture was very smooth. I also got Sour Cherry Sauce as my topping, which I absolutely loved. All the staff members were friendly and attentive, and the ambiance was delightful. Would happily return!

Absolutely phenomenal ice cream shop in Los Gatos! In a market already well supported by many awesome ice cream shops, Petals stands out with Persian inspired flavors that are punchy, fresh, and not too sweet. The ice cream is rich and incredibly smooth. Toppings are unique and delectable. The worst part about the visit is deciding which flavor to get--they're all so amazing. A must try!

First time at Petals Creamery and I was genuinely impressed! I tried the premium Saffron ice cream and wow -- it hit all the right notes: rich, creamy, sweet, perfectly fragrant, and just downright delicious. The creamery itself is in a great spot, right in downtown Los Gatos. It's beautifully decorated, super clean, and has a cozy, inviting vibe. The seating is comfy and the whole atmosphere just feels joyful. Service was fantastic too with friendly staff. Had a great experience overall and I'll definitely be back -- God willing! Highly recommended!

Nice fancy new ice cream shop that recently opened in Los Gatos. There is really interesting flavors. I especially like that they are made in house. The workers are really nice and let you sample any flavors you like. I really enjoyed London Fog and saffron but ultimately went with a small scoop of saffron. Premium flavors are an additional $1 and toppings are quite expensive as well. I did enjoy it but for a kid scoop with pistachio toppings came out to $9.

I stopped by Petals Creamery and I'm so glad I did! The ambiance has a charming Parisian flair with a Middle Eastern twist, featuring flavors deeply inspired by Persian cuisine -- Saffron ice cream with pistachios is a must try! Every scoop of ice cream is crafted in-house with remarkable attention to detail--this is far from your typical ice cream or pastry shop. It's refreshingly original. The decor is adorable and inviting, with thoughtful touches like a Persian-style couch and even a little library corner for kids. Service was on point, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. A truly delightful spot!

Histamine Intolerance sufferers rejoice if you can tolerate pistachio! The saffron ice cream was delightful and the clean ingredients didn't set off the usual reaction of hives, brain fog, etc in my case. The choice of using agave and/or honey as sweetener combined with high quality ingredients makes this a must try experience. Their Panna Cotta was very good and didn't set off any reactions either. Sadly, the Saffron Creme Brulee wasn't a hit with my SO or myself. We are both huge Creme Brulee fans typically, but it had almost a chemical aftertaste. Perhaps it was tainted by the torch? Regardless, we couldn't get past one bite each and I reacted to it as well. We have visited several times and will continue to do so! So excited to try whatever they come up with next! I've recommended this new local gem to a number of friends and family members as well. There are gluten free options too. On one visit, we had the opportunity to say hello to the chef. The staff has always been extremely pleasant and easy to deal with... so appreciate that. The noise level inside is generally high unless you manage to visit at a slower time, if there is such a thing lol. If that's a problem for you, there are some places to sit outside. Beware, if you have a tree nut allergy... lots of pistachios, almonds, and limited ice cream options. I normally lightly react to almonds, but surprisingly Marcona Milk didn't seem to be a problem and it was nice to try something different. Kudos to Petals Creamery for turning out such high quality real food options! Nice addition to Los Gatos.

If you are bored of the regular run of the mill ice cream flavor you need to try this establishment. It is new and the flavors are original with a twist. East cup gets you a different kind of Persian delicacy which you will not find in other shops. The service is fast. There is space inside to sit or you can take your cup along while you discover beautiful Los Gatos downtown. Highly recommended!

What a great place to get dessert! The interior is well appointed and looks like a classic ice cream shop and the flavors of ice cream are all so unique! I was recommended the Rozu (rose and yuzu) by one of the servers and it was so bright and refreshing. Thank you for the recommendation and delicious ice cream!

Petals Creamery is one of my favorite spots. The service is always superb with great ambiance, and the desserts and ice cream are truly gourmet. I come here all the time. Definitely try a sample, the ice cream is made fresh and from scratch right at the store. You won't taste anything like it elsewhere.

Lots of unique Persian /Turkish flavors in the ice cream menu. Staff is also very welcoming and friendly. Very clean and a quite fancy creamery in DT Los Gatos. The only suggestion I have for the owner/manager is to add pricing for the toppings so you know you're adding 2 toppings of $1.5 each on an already relatively pricy single scoop of ice cream

A SWEET SLICE OF HEAVEN I got to visit Petals Creamery during their soft opening, and it was such a great experience! The shop isn't officially open yet, but everything already felt so warm and welcoming. The staff were super friendly and the space is really cute. I tried the London Fog ice cream--so smooth and full of flavor--and the Halva cake, which was incredibly fresh and delicious. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and really care about what they're making. Even though it was just the soft opening, everything was well-prepared and impressive. I'm excited to come back when they officially open. This spot is definitely going to be a favorite!

Soooo good! I am visiting from LA where we have many Persian creameries and bakeries so I was skeptical about how their saffron ice cream would compare to Mashti Malone's in Westwood but WOW! I am going to be chasing this flavor long after I return to LA. I would recommend getting it brûléed. It's a very unique added touch. The cute ambiance is icing on the cake!

Not your typical ice cream parlor. Plentiful comfortable seating, inviting you to sit, slow down and really enjoy yourself. Friendly staff even when faced with a line going out the door on a Friday night. Window to part of the kitchen so you can watch sweet treats being made. The ice cream flavors were unusual combinations. We enjoyed the Turkish coffee and Saffron ice cream flavors. Made in small batches with a thoughtful choice of ingredients. We did not try any of the pastries, but they looked delicious. All in all a wonderful addition to downtown Los Gatos!

I'm a sucker for house made ice cream... top it off with unique flavors?? I love this place so much! You can tell Petals was born out of love and talent. Also, it's open late!! Finally a place for us to hangout in Los Gatos lol thank God.

Okay Yelpies, if you want to get immersed in the neo-exotic flavors of saffron affogatto, Rose roulette, halva cake, baklava ice cream, carrot ice cream floats, Turkish coffee, Persian tea, and much more, then step inside this beautiful and chic cafe/ ice creamery! By God's grace, they've done a great job combining the different styles of "desserting"! The ambiance is quite Parisian with touches of Persia and since they're open till late hours, they're a perfect dessert destination for those warm summer nights and cold winter evenings! This definitely is a "press repeat"!

Every ice cream or pastry lover needs to try! Petals Creamery was clean, cute, and had the best Persian ice cream I've tasted. I tried saffron and cantaloupe ice cream, and both were so flavorful and unlike any ice cream I've had before. They use the finest ingredients (saffron and pistachios from Iran) and make everything totally from scratch. Definitely will go again!

The ice creams are amazing! But don't miss the other desserts as well. The saffron rice pudding is delicious. And the pistachio cupcake is quite possibly a perfect dessert. The frosting is rich, but not super sweet and the cupcake has the perfect crumb. The staff is super friendly and welcoming and the vibe is unique and fun.

Unique flavors, great service. Awesome ambiance. My kids love it! Best ice cream option in downtown LG.

Wow, this creamery is definitely top notch. You can really taste the quality in their ice cream. I tried 3 and none disappointed, it was a bit hard to pick but definitely loved the cardamom chocolate. Creamy, perfect amount of sweetness and decadent chocolate flavor with a hint of cardamom, not overpowering at all. I also like the fact that they use organic ingredients. In addition the creamery has a very Parisian inspired look and feel to it. The place was super clean, all their furniture looked brand new. It's definitely a European vibe for sure :) I'm hard to please but I was definitely blown away! 10 out of 10.

Every flavor here is unique and absolutely delicious. You can 100% taste the fresh ingredients in each flavor. From saffron to cantaloupe. You will not be disappointed. Unreal taste.

Excellent new dessert option in Los Gatos. The quality of the ingredients really standouts in everything you taste. I ordered the baklava ice cream and it was amazing. The rice pudding was also really delicious. A very good date spot.

Delicious ice cream, excellent customer service in an amazing location. Inside is very cute and a great place to hang out.

Such a charming spot in Los Gatos. Petals is definitely a whole vibe! I sampled a few ice cream flavors which were great, but when I tried that chocolate cardamom ooooh weeeee. Boring people like vanilla, chill people go with chocolate (no offense). It is what it is. The beautiful thing is, everyone has different tastes preferences, and 100% you'll find a flavor that you like at Petals.

Finally, a place to replace my constant cravings for mashti Malones in LA. The saffron ice cream is incredible and you can tell the quality of their ingredients are great. Saw one of the employees filling up the water dispenser with eternal water so these guys are bougie. Hope it stays that way!

We visited this place today and are so happy we did. The ice cream, desserts, and the latte I had were all amazing. I'm not a big latte drinker but I decided to try theirs and it didn't disappoint. It was delicious and no bitter taste. The ice cream flavors are very unique and so sooo good! In addition to all the deliciousness here, the service was top notch. Such a great place all around and a perfect fit in downtown LG!

Yet another great experience! Their juice floats are amazing. We tried the pomegranate one yesterday.

The ice cream, service, and ambiance are all high quality and they do their best to make you feel comfortable and well taken care of!

I've officially found my new hangout spot in downtown Los Gatos! It has the charm and aesthetic of a French tea cafe in Paris with a California twist. This is what the South Bay has been missing! I tried a few flavors of ice cream and I enjoyed the mint pistachio and the baklava the most. The Rose marble cake was delicious too! Surprisingly, I really enjoyed the saffron rice pudding. I'll likely host my next girls outing here for instagramable pics.

Today was the grand opening of Petals Creamery, I have been waiting for this place to open, it's a delightful Persian-inspired dessert shop located in downtown Los Gatos. From the moment I walked in, I was amazed by the stunning design of the place, very classy with a Persian and french feel. I had the vanilla latte and I also tried their saffron and pistachio ice creams, both of which were so flavorful. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, fantastic service. If you're in downtown Los Gatos, you should definitely pop in and try it for yourself. You'll be happy you did.

Popped into this lovely ice cream shop for a sweet treat after dinner and was impressed with the beautiful decor and unique, Persian-inspired flavors. We really enjoyed the pistachio mint straciatella and rozu ice creams. Can't wait to try the carrot float and Turkish coffee!

This place was wonderful! They had really unique and tasty ice cream flavors. The decor was beautiful. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!

Petals is the real deal! Incredible attention to detail, masterful execution of their delicious creations, and a warm, beautiful ambiance. I was blown away by the "Rozu" ice cream--the perfect balance of yuzu and rose. We also loved their cardamom chocolate & baklava ice cream and watermelon sherbet. Their rose roulette and almond croissant were amazing, but the real star was their halva cake! Unique, light and flavorful, with a touch of chocolate to bring it all together. I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but I do love tea, and their persian tea with a side of sugar plum nabat (sugar candy) was the perfect pair to the pastries. Everyone working there is kind, welcoming, and helpful. Love their large space, comfortable booths, and many tables great for hanging out, catching up on some work (lots of convenient outlets), or taking your family for a sweet treat. This is definitely becoming one of my go-to spots, God willing!

Really good ice cream, but very inconsistent with scoops. Not sure why some people get a normal portion, whereas mine was almost half of what was pictured in other reviews . I'm okay with the price but it doesn't seem reasonable if I'm getting half of what other people are posting

Enjoyed a delicious affogato with their unique cardamom chocolate ice cream! Staff were friendly and allowed us to try a couple of their flavors before making our selection. Would go back!

Noticed that this place was finally open on my way home, so pulled a right at the light so we could give it a try!! Super interesting offerings, and the space is gorgeous. Really thoughtful details throughout, and spotlessly clean. I am very impressed! My son got a vanilla ice cream, and I got a saffron creme brulee to take home. Can't wait to try it! Welcome to Los Gatos, Petals!!
