Looked fun and online reviews were good so wandered into this little shop. It was busy. The clerk was friendly and provided samples of the flavors we requested. Delicious! One sorbet and two gelatos. We all enjoyed it.

Oh. My. Goodness. YUM! Nestled in the charming downtown of Staunton, Virginia, the Split Banana is simply a tasty must do. I understand it to be a favorite among the locals, and I can understand why: the locale, the quaint soda shop style décor, the friendly staff are just delightful! And THEN there’s the ICECREAM!!! Nom Nom Nom! I just inhaled a waffle cone with cookies&cream ice cream and blackberry-raspberry sorbet. So delicious and so now need another. I would definitely recommend this establishment and will look forward to my return visit to Staunton, much thanks to the Split Banana. :)

Anytime I’m in the area, I insist on making a trip to the Split Banana. All of their gelato is delicious and made there in house. Staff is friendly. Atmosphere is cozy, inviting and playful(with a piano in the shop and card games on the table). HIGHLIGHT: Cocoa Ancho. It’s spicy chocolate gelato, which is such a weird sensation that you have to try it. Other ice cream shops I’ve been to offer a Mexican chocolate — which usually means they added cinnamon, but Cocoa Ancho is different. It brings actual heat to the taste.

Split Banana was good fun! We shared a banana split since that seemed like a real treat. I’d also never had a banana split with gelato before. In short, it’s an ice cream place. Their ice cream is good. Is it mind-blowing? No. Is this a fun place to go when it’s hot out? Absolutely.

I wish I could say this place is terrible, it would be better for my waistline and also the lines inside the shop, but honestly, it is completely delicious and addictive. The chocolate sorbet is like eating delicious fudge. We will probably go everyday. Uh oh.

Amazing gelato! The flavors are amazing, some of which are not your average flavors. I had a scoop of the sticky rice and the basil pineapple sorbet. Such an amazing combination! The folks behind the counter are always kind, and willing to let you taste as many flavors as you want.

I absolutely love this place. This is some of the best gelato that I’ve ever had. They use fresh ingredients, it is wonderful. I can’t recommend this place enough, if you are in the Staunton area and want some ice cream come the Split Banana!

We’ve had gelato all over Italy — it’s how you keep kids walking all day — and the Split Banana’s offerings don’t suffer in comparison(in fact they are better than most we had there). This is the richest, most flavorful, most natural tasting gelato you can find. And they make the best espresso drinks in Staunton. No competition.

Great family friendly place. I love coming here. The staff is great and is very pleasant. They always have new flavors of gelato for me to try. When you are in Staunton this is a place you must visit. I promise you won’t regret it

We had to stop by here while to see what all the fuss was about. The gelato is amazing! It reminds me of gelato in Europe, but better. Loved trying samples of favors like sticky rice, Guinness, while enjoying traditional favorites. Wednesday is also free handmade waffle day. No toppings needed, this gelato is awesome!
