Ice Cream restaurants in Paris

  1. A

    Pozzetto

    Urban myth says this gelato maker opened when a group of friends from northern Italy couldn’t find their favourite ice cream in Paris so they imported the ingredients to create it from scratch. Twelve flavours – spatula’d, not scooped – include gianduia torinese (hazelnut chocolate from Turin) and zabaione, made from egg yolks, sugar and sweet Marsala wine, along with the more usual peach, pistachio and poire William. Great Italian coffee, too.

    Berthillon

    Berthillon is to ice cream what Château Lafite Rothschild is to wine and Valhrona is to chocolate. And with nigh on 70 flavours to choose from, you’ll be spoiled for choice.

    While the fruit-flavoured sorbets (cassis, blackberry etc) produced by this celebrated glacier (ice-cream maker) are renowned, the chocolate, coffee, marrons glacés (candied chestnuts), Agenaise (Armagnac and prunes), noisette (hazelnut) and nougat au miel (honey nougat) are richer. Eat in or grab a cone with one/two/three/four small scoops (€2.30/3.60/4.90/6.20) to takeaway.

    Amorino

    Amorino’s homemade ice cream (yogurt, caramel, kiwi, strawberry etc) is good. It has no less than 10 other branches in Paris, including Amorino Luxembourg ([tel] 01 42 22 66 86; 4 rue Vavin, 6e; [metro] Vavin); Amorino Île St-Louis ([tel] 01 44 07 48 08; 47 rue St-Louis en l’Île, 4e; [metro] Pont Marie); and Amorino Cler (42 rue Cler, 6e; [metro] École Militaire).

    Amorino Île St-Louis

    Though not such dedicated lécheurs (lickers) as some, we’re told that Berthillon has serious competition and Amorino’s homemade ice cream (yogurt, caramel, kiwi, strawberry etc) is, in fact, better.
