Vienna's Best Gelato at Eissalon Am Schwedenplatz
Eissalon Am Schwedenplatz satisfies the sweet tooth in residents and tourists alike.
The most flavorful, creamiest gelato-style ice cream in Vienna can be found at Schwedenplatz, near the Stephansdom city center. The family-run Eissalon Am Schwedenplatz there has been serving up the city's best scoops since 1886. The shop offers a variety of sumptuous regular daily flavors, including Creme Mango (Mango Cream), Pralinata (Praline), and Schoko-Banane (Chocolate Banana), as well as an assortment of more exotic flavors that rotate every few days. Among the premium rotating flavors to look for are Campari Orange, Himbeer Sauerrahm (Raspberry Sourcream), and Ingwer Lemoncream (Ginger Lemoncream).
A standard two-scoop, two-flavor cone or cup costs about €1.70. A complimentary business-card-sized calender is available to take home from the shop. It covers a three-week schedule of rotating flavor offerings. You can also check out the ice cream calender and menu online at www.gelato.at.
