Summers in Prague can be oppressive with highs climbing to near 35 degrees Celsius on occasion.
Especially in the past few years, as the Czech Republic has been getting more tropical weather from the South. But where to go for great ice cream in Prague?
So, here is the top list of my favorite places. They are not in any particular order as I like them all and I buy from one place or another depending on what flavors they have that day and where exactly I’m in Prague at the time.
Crème de la Crème make all of what they sell by themselves. They sell artisan Italian gelato for the ones who want to taste a more refined product. Crème de la Crème has quite an impressive menu. Not only do they guarantee high-quality products, but they also sell a diversified menu for all kinds of customers. They have sugar-free ice cream, sorbets, ven ice creams, seasonal menu items, and classic ice cream. They have three ice cream shops which you can find at:
