Best Gelato in Nashville

"I LOVE JENI’S ICE CREAM. And now that there are multiplelocations in Nashville, my waistline is in immediate danger. I finally met Jeni Britton Bauer at the opening of her Hillsboro Village store—dangerously close to where I live—and had a major fangirl moment. I’ve tried about every flavor she makes, and while you can’t go wrong, the combo of salty caramel and brown butter almond brittle is always my favorite."

"A Nashville classic, Bobbie’s is the only place to go for classic ice cream treats including dipped soft serve cones and milkshakes in every flavor combination imaginable. The line can get long in the summertime, and there is no indoor seating, so be prepared to sweat (but that’s what the ice cream is for, right?) They also have a downtown location that DOES have indoor seating, but not nearly the charm. → Bobbie’s Dairy Dip / facebook.com/bobbiesdairydipcharlotteave / 5301 Charlotte Ave, Nashville, TN 37209"

"West NashvilleSince 1951, the first cone of soft serve from Bobbie’s Dairy Dip dripping down your arm has been an annual rite of spring. Forget about the swallows returning to Capistrano, Bobbie’s annual reopening after winter break is what many Nashvillians consider the official kickoff of the season, and a burger with a chilly chaser is the ideal way to welcome spring back to town.How to order: Walk up to the window and place your order to eat at a picnic table or use Grubhub for carryout and delivery."

"Another long-time Nashville institution, Bobbie’s is also known for their burgers, corn dogs, dipped cones, and incredible shakes. Call or check their Facebook page for hours as they change with the season."

"Elliston Place Soda Shop is Nashville’s oldest continuously operating restaurant in the same location, and for a good reason. This piece of Nashville history is decked out with jukeboxes and a neon sign that has hung in the same place for nearly 80 years. The building itself was originally a grocery store-turned-pharmacy in the 1920s."

"Address: Elliston Place Soda Shop, 2111 Elliston Pl, Nashville. With homemade desserts and table-side juke boxes, Elliston Place Soda Shop is a must-see in Nashville. Opened in 1939, Elliston Place Soda Shop also holds the prestigious title of the oldest restaurant in its original location in Nashville."

"Elliston Place Soda Shop is preserved to its 1930’s era original style, retaining timeless elements like the vivid red tile, stainless steel soda fountain and retro furniture…and of course Ms. Linda's famous pies!. Get a shake or banana split when you stop by."

"DowntownUnlike other downtown establishments that are named after celebrities that tend to chase off locals (we’re looking at you Kid Rock), Mike was a welcome addition to Lower Broad when he opened this throwback ice cream parlor in a historic building near the foot of Broadway. Hand-scooped cups and cones are just the start at Mike’s, so make sure to read the whole menu or you’ll miss out on old timey treats like egg creams, sundaes, and floats.How to order: Order at the counter of call ahead to 615-742-6453 for carryout."

"Downtown on Broadway, Mike’s Ice Cream and Coffee Bar deals in big servings of sweetness. The menu homes in on moreish classics, including soft-serve yogurt and sundaes, both regular and specialty. Choose from a sugar cone or waffle cone topped with handmade ice cream, or get your face into Mike’s many other offerings, including smoothies, milkshakes and cool-hit coffee drinks."

"Their milkshakes are a work of art -- seriously some of the most creative concoctions we've ever seen!. Choose from their signature shakes, build your own, cookie dough, and scoops -- check out their menu here."

"DonelsonThis family affair has been around for three generations, with the grandson of the original Mimi currently in charge. They haven’t changed much about the place in all those years, but the nostalgic charm is what attracts tourists to the area around Gaylord Opryland Resort anyway. The kitchen makes two dozen old-school flavors by hand every day, and they take advantage of seasonal flavors like peach and pecans to whip up specialties at the peak of freshness.How to order: Call 615-724-1201 in advance for carryout orders."

"This family owned 60s inspired ice cream and coffee shop has patio seating, locally sourced ice cream flavors, dry/wet dippings, and an assortment of cone/bowl options!. Check out their menu here."

"One of the first Catholic Churches in Tennessee, St. Mary of the Seven Sorrows Catholic Church served as the second Cathedral of the Diocese of Nashville from 1847-1914. Architect Adolphus Heiman, a German immigrant, designed the church using a Greek Revival architectural style. The first Catholic Bishop of Nashville, Richard Pius Mules, O.P., was primarily responsible for the construction of St. Mary church and led Tennessee’s Catholics until his death in 1860."

"A hard-to-miss neon sign welcomes you to this otherwise unassuming restaurant off Highway 100, just south of Nashville. Husband and wife Lon and Annie Loveless started the Loveless Cafe in the early 1950s as a motel/restaurant combination. Weary travelers would eat delicious homemade biscuits and fried chicken before getting some rest."

"Over and over we kept hearing about Loveless Cafe, so much so that we couldn’t skip it. Tim and I were surprised to learn that one of Nashville’s most popular restaurants is located so far from downtown. In fact, Loveless Cafe is thirty minutes away from downtown Nashville by car."

"This is a Nashville chain that has ventured into the “fancy food” industry without losing its coffeehouse charm!. I stopped in for an iced coffee after a run, and I was wowed by their variety of menus. I opted to create my own thing, of course, and ended up with a banana-caramal iced latte!"

"This classic coffee shop with outposts all over Nashville offers a casual space to fuel up on delicious eats and your morning cup (or cups) of coffee. With an all-day brunch and a kids’ menu especially for your littles, it’s an easy choice for a quick meal that everyone will love."
