Gelupo

Gelupo is an Italian ice cream parlour in Soho, London, making fresh gelato from good ingredients. It is best known for its inventive flavours, among them white chocolate and lavender, bacio stracciatella, and ricotta sour cherry. Alongside these sit traditional choices like mint stracciatella, pistachio and hazelnut, so there is plenty to pick from.

There is more here than the gelato. On cooler days the parlour serves warm drinks, including mulled Vin Brulé, a Limoncello Hot Toddy, Frangelico or Amaretto spiked hot chocolate, Café Bicerin, and Pear Schnapps. For something richer you can have your gelato toasted in brioche, or order a hot chocolate affogato.

The interior is tiled in blue and white, a pleasant spot to sit with a gelato and take in an authentic Italian touch in Soho.
