Italian Gelato, Coffee Shop Opens In Union County: See Where

RAHWAY, NJ - With over a dozen flavors of Italian gelato, you can eat until the cows come home.

Rahway-based Wholly Cow has opened its latest outpost at the Mint rental community in the city, complete with an official ribbon cutting and grand opening held Friday.

Located at 1542 Main St., the 1,300-square-foot shop offers “authentic Italian gelato and premium locally roasted coffee,” according to a Facebook post from Rahway officials.

Menu offerings include PB&J gelato sandwich, affogato (coffee-based gelato dessert), cappuccinos, cold brew and coconut gelato.

Wholly Cow is helmed by Rahway resident and nutritionist Terra Guaba, who saw a need for a casual community gathering place serving up tasty treats and beverages, according to ROI-NJ.

“As residents of Rahway, we experienced firsthand the renaissance of its downtown and the addition of contemporary retail that’s created a cool New York City-type vibe,” Guaba, a Mint resident herself, told the outlet. “What it lacked was an inviting establishment that was open late and where neighbors could join and socialize … Fast forward over a year and Wholly Cow has become a reality, fulfilling a dream to open a café that would bring people together and have delicious food options.”

Hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.
