Sprinkles Gelato Above Bar

Address: 120-122 Above Bar Street, Southampton SO14 7DU

Rating: 4.1/5 (from 1,626 Google Reviews)

One reviewer said: "A massive range of ice creams which are yum and another huge range of waffles and crepes and cake slices. The food was delicious but also very sweet and sickly. My waffle defeated me at the half way point so unless you are an eating champion American don't get greedy like I did!"

Scoops Gelato

Address: 253 Portswood Road, Portswood, Southampton SO17 2NG

Rating: 4.2/5 (from 638 Google Reviews)

One reviewer said: "The ice cream is excellent. We had 3 different flavours between us and we will definitely be returning to try more. The cones were very tasty and fresh. There are 3 fridges full of different flavours, one of which is all sorbets.

"If you want a really good ice cream then head to Scoops, you will not regret it."
