Best Gelato in Havering-Atte-Bower

"The original Camden parlour is now back open for fans of Chin Chin’s famous ice creams (churned with the aid of liquid nitrogen for a rich, dense, almost chewy texture.) They are available by the scoop with toppings, but there are also a dozen or so full-on dishes making use of them, from a tiramisu sundae to nachos with chargrilled pineapple, salted-caramel sauce, dark-chocolate ice cream and blue-corn waffle tacos. Open Friday — Sunday, 12 p.m."

"Address: 49-50 Camden Lock, Camden Town, London NW1 8AF and 54 Greek Street, London W1D 3DS. Whether you're a science buff or not, you have to head here just for the experience - you get to watch as your dessert is frozen to order using liquid nitrogen. Toppings and sauces are kept in beakers to complete the science lab vibe, and flavours are outlandish - think pandan leaf and black sesame cake."

"The sweet treats get scientific at Chin Chin Labs, where all the ice cream is hand-churned with liquid nitrogen. Its short but inventive menu of regular flavours includes tonka bean and burnt butter caramel, with an array of topping options including bee pollen honeycomb and truffle crumble."

"Restaurants Australian Balham. Still the place to be seen for breakfast or brunch in Balham, this achingly fashionable café is run by a bevy smiling staff who serve up tongue-in-cheek twists on the old favourites, plus some unusual items such as confit duck rillettes on toast with burnt grape agridulce, elderberry and strawberry umeboshi. Coffee provides a good caffeine kick (Workshop features among its suppliers), while a playlist of the owners’ favourite records adds to the feelgood vibe."

"If you’re an ice-cream addict, then Milk Train needs to be on your list of the best desserts in London to try out. This place was made famous recently by several viral videos and Instagram posts – and when you see the ice-cream creations they conjure up – you’ll understand why this place always has a queue outside."

"We have to say – these are easily the prettiest and most Instagrammable ice creams and sweet treats you’ll find in London. The candy floss ice cream is a like a work of art, with the only tricky part being getting a perfect photo before the whole thing melts. A delicious scoop of pure beauty."

"This West End spot comes from Jacob Kenedy, the chef behind pasta restaurant Bocca di Lupo (which is across the street), and it’s the Italian larder that gets raided for flavour inspiration. Varieties include espresso, ricotta and sour cherry, tiramisu and Bacio (inspired by the Italian sweet), and gelato is also served inside pastry cannoli bites. Kenedy is such a fan of the stuff that he’s just written and published Gelupo Gelato, a gloriously thorough compendium of ice cream recipes."

"With its blue-and-white tiled decor, you could easily be in Italy and not the middle of Soho. It’s all about authentic Italian gelato here made with fresh and natural ingredients. But strictly traditional this ain’t!"

"A post shared by La Gelatiera - Artisan Gelato (@lagelatiera) on Mar 10, 2017 at 11:28am PST. Creative flavours, such as tongue-tingling chili and basil, have won La Gelatiera an impressive list of foodie awards. Its name refers to the gelato churn used in Italy, and reflects the spot’s dedication to handmade treats."

"Savoury scoops like basil and chilli, honey and rosemary or fresh watercress and lime, these flavours are bold but award-winning. That being said, the less adventurous milk chocolate is silky and super rich, simple but so perfect."

"La Gelatiera – A highly acclaimed gelateria sits humbly in a cosy side street location. Any trip to the west end should include a pit"

"For those who love adorable décor and amazing ice cream, they’ll find both at Dyce. Although the focus at Dyce is ice cream and milkshakes, they also serve up bubble tea and fresh crepes. Whatever you end up choosing, you’re sure to deem it one of the best desserts in London!"

"Founded in Florence before opening parlours all over London, Badiani is best known for its signature, award-winning gelato flavour La Dolce Vita. Just milk, sugar and eggs with swirls of cocoa and Piedmont hazelnut sauce, it’s sweet and rich, super thick and completely true to its name."

"Restaurants Ice-cream parlours Covent Garden. Voluptuous folds of colourful gelato undulate across Scoop’s freezer cabinet like rows of love handles. Its flavours are classic Italian (biscotto, fior di latte, malaga, pistachio), and they’re made from brag-worthy provenance-led ingredients including Tonda Gentile hazelnuts from Piedmont, Sicilian black cherries and a changing range of single-origin chocolates and coffees."

"Alongside the endless sea of gingham blankets, craft IPA tinnies, and wayfarers, a common accessory you’ll see being wielded by most sun-worshippers in SW4 is a tub of Nardulli’s famed gelato. With flavours that range from fresh fior di latte to aromatic amaretto, Nardulli serves proper Italian gelato and sorbet. It's the kind of thick, creamy ice cream that makes Haagen Dazs taste like Halo Top."

"A cult-favourite in Clapham, Nardulli will always have a queue on sunny days. Thick and creamy, traditional with good quality ingredients – Valhrona chocolate, Tahitian vanilla pods – and free from any ice crystals, you can’t fault the texture or flavours. 29 The Pavement, London SW4 0JE"

"Found just outside London Designer Outlet, their lush desserts and heavenly drinks will curb that sweet tooth in no time."

"Gardens emerge in the unlikeliest of places, including this tropical beauty atop a railway station. Crossrail hasn’t quite reached Canary Wharf yet, but this stunning spot is open for business—as is the adjacent street food hall!. COVID-19 UPDATE: Crossrail Place Roof Garden is open 8am-9pm daily."

"The botanic gardens at Kew, in Richmond, were first opened to the public in 1840 after the royal family established the gardens initially and started to bring plants from overseas from 1759. Because of the royal family’s continued interest in Richmond, the areas of Kew and Richmond became one of the most fashionable places to live, especially in the 18th century. Today, Kew Gardens focuses on plant and fungi research whilst housing the largest collection of plants in the world."

"Ok, it’s not technically a park, but it most definitely is one of London’s foremost green spaces. Speaking of technicalities, its proper title is actually Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, but when did anyone last call it that?. However you refer to it, Kew is a glorious day out, and with 300 acres and 50,000 plants, you could go every week of the year and discover something new every time."

"One of Richmond’s most famous attractions is perfect for visiting all year round. Wander around the ever-changing gardens and explore the wildlife, with attractions that include an indoor rainforest climate in the Palm House, an 18-metre high Treetop Walkway and guided walking tours."

"The museum has three permanent galleries, including Ancient Origins, which showcases changes in the area dating back from prehistoric times, and Town of Kings, which highlights the development of Kingston as a market town starting during medieval times. The building that houses the museum is Grade II listed."
