Sbrino Gelatificio Contadino
A gelateria built on short supply chains: named farms for the milk, seasonal fruit, nothing bought in as a ready made base.

What everybody agrees on
Read across roughly 600 public reviews on Google, TripAdvisor and Restaurant Guru in September 2026. Rated 4.6 on Google.
- Most
Texture and ingredient quality are what people describe, and international gelato writers use it as a benchmark in the centre.
- Most
The farm sourcing is the concept rather than a slogan. Milk and fruit come from named producers.
- Often
The flavour list is short and seasonal rather than a wall of tubs.
- Some
Portions are small for the price, which is the most repeated complaint.
- Some
There is more than one branch, and people sometimes report being given a different flavour than the one they asked for.
What to order
Order a plain milk based flavour first. That is where the farm sourcing actually shows, and where most gelaterie fall down.
Before you go
- Getting there
- Via dei Serragli, five minutes from Piazza Santo Spirito.
- Open
- Late, until around eleven.
- Eat it
- On the steps of Santo Spirito, a few minutes away.
Around eighteen cream flavours and eight sorbets, changing with what is available. Vegan and gluten free options are properly made rather than an afterthought. This is the address for people who want to know where the milk came from, and it is a different proposition from the historic counters in the centre. Also has a second shop on Via Senese.
