Cream Affair
Gelatos, brownies, ice cream rolls, thick shakes, these guys do it all. But it's the bubble waffles here that are the star attraction! In fact, this place is the first to bring bubble waffles to India and offers some dreamy waffle creations. You can choose any base (red velvet, chocolate or plain) and load it up with fresh ice cream scoops, decadent sauces, marshmallows, chocolate chunks, fresh fruits and more. Truly indulgent, this can totally fill you up and is a great dessert meal option!

Gelato Factory
In addition to regular milk-based gelatos, this place also offers some of the most delicious vegan gelato flavours! You can barely tell the difference. Mango, chocolate, coconut, strawberry — you can choose from an array of options. They also offer Creminos, which are gelatos shaped like lollipops dipped in chocolate (yum). With the right amount of sweetness and freshness of flavour, the gelatos here check all the boxes for authentic, artisanal ice creams.
