This summer. All you need is ice cream.

Summer in Vienna can get mercilessly hot. And there many ways to cool off - thank goodness for that. The pool, the ice cold beer and best solution of all - ice cream!




Keep it cool!

This is ice cream like no other. Firstly, they have quite interesting or rather quirky flavours such as holunderblüte (elderflower), topfencreme (curd cream), Pistazie-salz-muskat (Salted pistachios with muscat), Graumohn (grey poppy yes you read this right) and the winner for this "quirky flavour category" is - kürbiskernöl (pumpkin seed oil). But after trying it, we quite like it!


All the choice that you need...

It is a small store and it might be difficult to spot them. But do not fear - spot the crowd, the fellow ice-cream knowers. And how exactly? Stroll down past the Stephansdom towards Schwedenplatz along the Rotenrumstrasse. And once you find a long queue that snakes along the street - quite literally - these are your fellow ice-cream fans. Join up and order up!! Don't worry about the queue, it goes pretty quickly.

Lastly, enjoy! And tell us what you think!

About Eis Greissler

The milk source comes from a small family farm in Lower Austria and yes people, the milk is fully organic. They use only natural ingredients and try their very best to use organic and fair-trade products. And yes, whilst their flavours are quite different, they are still working on even more exciting flavours.

They have 2 outlets and we particularly like the one in the old town. Well because they open till 11pm! It gives a good excuse to stroll down after a meal and oh, did we spot ice cream!
