43 Newborough · Scarborough
Real Italian gelato, handmade in Scarborough by Leonardo & Daniele — the best gelato outside Italy, say our regulars.
The craft
No shortcuts. No bottles of flavouring — the kind lesser places use. Just real ingredients, churned fresh in Scarborough.
Fruit and nut purées painstakingly sourced from Italy. You can taste the difference.
Beautifully soft, flawlessly smooth — the texture regulars write home about.
Generous scoops and honest prices. Great value, say the reviews — all 2,977 of them.
The signatures
Pistachio — the one everyone talks about — plus a cabinet of changing flavours, with marked vegan options.
Pistachio, honeycomb & tiramisu gelato. Glorious — and huge. Built for sharing (or not).
Crisp shell, creamy heart. Properly Sicilian, made to disappear in three bites.
Real Neapolitan coffee, thick hot chocolate, milkshakes — and Italian beers for the grown-ups.
The hosts
Two Italians who brought a taste of home to the Yorkshire coast. Warm welcomes, real conversation — and gelato they would proudly serve in Naples. Even the radio station is Italian.
“The best gelato we have tasted outside of Italy.”
