GioLato — Restaurant in London

Had some really gorgeous gelato in the lovely surroundings of this new gelaterie! We tried nearly all 12 of the very different flavours (between our party of 3...), including a selection of vegan options, and they were all so good it was impossible to choose a favourite. All the recipes are devised, and then freshly made on site, by the friendly owners and their staff. Comes in waffle cones, tubs or even insulated packs to take away. We followed with a creamy hot chocolate drink, in choice of dark, milk or white choc. Freshly ground coffees and milkshakes also available, to take away or in the premises at Scrutton Ground (where there is also a busy and popular food market on weekdays), a few minutes walk from St James's Park tube station. If you love gelato, or even if you've never tried it before, it's definitely...

Portions are huge. If you get two scoops, that will be enough for two people to eat. And I can eat a lot of ice cream, and eating half of my girlfriend's ice scream and drinking my milkshake was really filling. So, yes, you can also get a milkshake out of your chosen ice-cream. We chose three different tastes (2 for ice-cream, 1 for milkshake) and we liked them all.

Service was also incredible, staff super friendly and nice. Gave to try ice scream to help with picking the flavour for milkshake. We also later asked for some water and they gave us for free in a plastic cup.

Definitely recommend visiting. The only thing, don't order crunch topping for your milkshake because peaces of that will be too big to go through the straw 😂 I luckily still had the small wooden spoon after trying ice cream so used...

Amazing gelato on a perfectly sunny and warm afternoon! I have been wanting to try this place out for a while as my office is close by and was glad I was able to do so today!

It was filled with people at 3pm on a Wednesday afternoon but I didn't have to wait too long to order. I asked to try the fior di latte flavour which was nice and sweet but considering how much they charge for one scoop already (£4.20) I decided to go for only the cookies and cream. I didn't choose wrong - it was so rich with cookie taste and the gelato texture was smooth and creamy. I thoroughly enjoyed it on my walk back to the office.

I would definitely want to come back soon to treat myself next time but the down side is that it is quite pricey compared to other gelato places I have tried in...
