Best gelato outside of Italy…!

If you’re looking for a sweet treat the next time you’re near to the city centre, there really is only one place to stop and that is the extraordinary Swoon at the bottom of Park Street on College Green…

Open every single day of the week, Swoon believes that “every life is made a little better by gelato, and bringing people together over gelato is what we do: the very best in artisan gelato, made with love and laughter to lift your spirits”. And the very best in artisan gelato is exactly what it is!! Made from only the best ingredients (including delights such as pistachios sourced from Sicily, hazelnuts from Piemonte, Borbone Neapolitan coffee…), every gelato is churned on site and made from scratch by their talented chefs who create delicious new guest flavours every month too.

Now, I have a bit of a weak spot when it comes to all things ice cream but I can’t be the only one as there are people queuing to get into Swoon every single day. My absolute favourites are pistachio and bacio (which is an absolute match made in heaven for anyone who hasn’t been just yet) as well as the lotus biscotti but after trying their Easter specials a couple of weeks back, the hot cross bun flavour was pretty spectacular too! Don’t fancy gelato? They have a whole range of pastries and sweet treats on offer too, along with some pretty fab coffee so something for absolutely everyone.
