Gelateria dei Gracchi

The experience

An artisanal gelateria in the Prati district near the Vatican, founded in 1999 by Alberto Manassei and among the first in Rome to drop pre-made bases and additives. Flavours are made with seasonal fruit and quality ingredients, with lactose- and gluten-free options and unusual choices like wine gelato and chocolate with rum. Small and no-frills, with a bench outside.

Purist, additive-free gelato that's a benchmark for artisan Roman ice cream near the Vatican.
