The Best Ice Cream Parlors In Vienna, Austria
Vienna has a long standing tradition of ice cream parlors, handmade from the freshest of ingredients in the Italian gelato style. If you ever venture to Austria‘s capital, finding your favorite ice cream parlor is a must, and our guide offers you the best in the city.
1. Tichy
Tichy
Tichy is a family-run business, originating over 60 years ago in 1952. Nowadays, the legendary Tichy is run by the second generation of Tichys and a great central location guarantees that this ice cream parlor always stays busy. Tichys is a Viennese classic and an integral spot to visit as this is the only place where people can get the famous eismarillenknödel – vanilla ice cream with an apricot core, rolled in grated, roasted and caramelised hazelnuts. If you’ve purchased other variations of ice cream apricot dumplings, they won’t equal this patented delicacy.
