For anyone who’s dreaming of filling their bathtub with ice cream and spending the rest of their glorious lives in there, Neubau has some absolutely delicious ice cream shops that you can’t miss once you find yourself in the district.
A true staple when it comes to the Viennese gelato experience is Paolo Bortolotti, which you can practically find on every street corner in Neubau; on Mariahilferstraße alone you’ll come across a whopping four of their shops!
On Stiftgasse, you’ll find Gelateria La Romana. This place doesn’t only look (and smell) incredible, but also serves you some of the creamiest Italian-style gelato in various unique flavours, like ‘grandma’s biscuits’, ‘cream of chestnuts’ or ‘bread, butter and jam’, just to name a few.
A store notorious for the long lines forming in front of it on a hot summer’s day is Eis Greissler, and it has some truly delicious scoops that are totally worth the wait. Some of their most well-known flavours are pumpkin seed oil, and goat cheese, which both taste way, way better than they sound.
And last, but not at all least in this list of ice cream places to stuff your sweet-tooth-face with is the entirely plant-based ice creamery, Veganista. Not only do they make super tasty vegan versions of staple flavours like vanilla and chocolate, but also come up with really cool (and very Instagrammable) flavour combinations like blueberry & lavender, basil, and tonka bean.
