The ice cream, gelato and sorbet on offer here changes every day, rotating between the 40 flavours this artisan company produces. Grab a cone to go or sit down for a light lunch (soup, sandwiches) or a stack of pancakes topped with your choice from the ice-cream display. A glass window allows visitors to watch the icy confections being made.
