]]> As one of the oldest cities in the world, Rome has a rich and fascinating history that can still be seen throughout its many museums and iconic landmarks. The Italian capital is also a hub of art, fashion, and, perhaps most notably—food. Along with traditional Roman dishes like spaghetti carbonara, visitors would be remiss not to indulge in a scoop of Italian ice cream for dessert. Known locally as ‘gelato,’ Italian ice cream differs from its American counterpart in that it contains more sugar and less fat. It’s a delicious and refreshing treat that makes for a perfect end to a day spent strolling through the city’s cobblestone streets. Keep reading for our recommendations for the best gelato in Rome.

Fassi

Palazzo del Freddo Fassi is a historic Roman gem that has been delighting locals and tourists with its artisanal gelato since 1880. As a small family-owned business, they’ve perfected the art of gelato-making over the generations and continue to offer a wide range of flavors crafted from high-quality ingredients. 

Venchi

In the heart of Rome, just a few minutes walk from the Trevi Fountain is Venchi, a legendary gelato shop with a history dating back to 1878. Along with ice cream, the shop also specializes in handcrafted chocolate candies and beverages. All Venchi products are made with natural ingredients using traditional methods, and, in recent years, a number of vegan options have been added to the menu.

Giolitti

Since 1900, Giolitti has been making artisanal gelato, Italian pastries, and mouthwatering hot chocolate using fresh, local ingredients. A visit to this shop, not far from the Pantheon, feels like a trip back in time thanks to its classic decor and elegantly-dressed servers.

]]> Italy is known for many things—its art, its history, and not to be overlooked, its food. While pasta and pizza certainly have their place, what we really look forward to enjoying in Italy is dessert, gelato in particular. Italian ice cream has much more sugar than American ice cream, but it’s also enjoyed in smaller portions. The Italian approach to dining is much slower than in America. Food is an experience meant to be savored and enjoyed. We’ve got a few favorite gelato spots that are totally worth checking out on your next trip to Italy.

Vivoli, Florence

This gelato shop is the oldest in Florence at almost 100 years old. Vivoli uses seasonal fruit and whole milk to create quality gelato from simple ingredients. They also have delicious coffee and pastries available—we recommend their affogato, which is a scoop of vanilla ice cream in a shot of espresso.

Suso, Venice

Suso is the go-to spot for anyone looking for dairy-free gelato. They offer both traditional and vegan options as well as gluten-free cone options. Stroll through the canals of Venice with a scoop of dark chocolate. Paradiso!

Latteneve, Milan

Using local, organic ingredients to create their gelato, Latteneve serves some of the best Italian ice cream you can find, in a variety of delicious flavors. They even have eight different kinds of chocolate!
