Best Gelato in Grasscroft

"If it’s ice cream that’s tickling your taste-buds, climb the staircase in Afflecks to the first floor to discover the most eclectic selection of flavours imaginable. Chances are that you’ve seen Ginger’s ice cream van at one of the city’s many events, festivals or markets, but for an ice-cream hit whenever you fancy, their base in Afflecks is a dessert lover’s heaven. With flavours including baked apple sorbet, black treacle and parkin, and the iconic Chorlton crack, you’re not going to find bland vanilla here."

"Usually found in an ice cream van during Town Hall’s festival season, Ginger’s now own a diner on the first floor in Affleck’s Palace. Known for their extremely popular ‘Chorlton Crack’, a lush salted caramel and peanut butter combo, Ginger’s wild and wonderful flavours can be obtained at the diner in a toasted brioche, affogato style or in a milkshake. Affleck’s, First Floor, 52 Church St, M4 1PW"

"Products sourced from local producers, Ginger’s is on the first floor of Afflecks which means it’s already cool – and that’s before trying the ice cream. Like Gino’s, they have loads of stuff to suit your ice cream needs including dairy-free ice cream. Be sure to try the Chorlton Crack."

Located on a working farm, this dairy and ice cream parlour may be a little off the beaten track, but it’s a great place to escape to for a quiet day out, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Nestled in the pretty village of Dungworth, just outside of the Peak District, you can visit the farm’s on site ice cream parlour for a tasty cone or scrumptious sundae, or enjoy a wander around the area before picking up a tub from the farm shop to take home with you."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. If you’re looking for an alternative day out, then look no further than the Our Cow Molly Dairy Farm & Ice Cream Shop. Experience a taste of Yorkshire farm life and some tasty ice cream, too."

"If you’re at White Rose Centre and get a sudden urge for some ice cream, you’re in luck. The Ice Cream Parlour has 18 flavours for you to work through. From mint chocolate chip to raspberry ripple, bubblegum and pistachio, they do the classics and they do them well."
