Address

19 Grassmarket, on the west side of the square under the castle

A tiny gelato shop on the Grassmarket. Flavours change daily, all made in-house, and the signature is the hot chocolate float: thick hot chocolate with a scoop of whatever gelato you choose. There's barely anywhere to sit, so take it outside and eat on the steps or a bench looking up at the castle. Winter hours are Wed–Sat 11:00–19:30 and Sun 11:00–18:00.
