OLIVER'S ICE CREAM
Oliver's Ice Cream have been making premium Gelato for a number of years and, for the last few, gained a reputation for being amongst the very best destinations for ice cream in Bristol.
Situated in the historical and cultural heart of the city, Wapping Wharf is well known for its incredible array of independent restaurants, cafes and shops.
Do come and visit us - sample our range of smooth Gelato flavours, beautifully dairy-free and vegan varieties, smoothies & waffles.
Our rotating cabinet keeps all the Gelato in peak condition - and is great to watch!
A scoop of our signature chocolate in a chocolate shell - Yummy!

OLIVER'S ICE CREAM
Welcome to the fun world of Oliver's Gelato!
We make all our frozen products fresh on site using milk from a West Country dairy where the cows are grass fed, and make our Gelato using a special (and secret!) recipe. But Gelato is not all we make, for our mission is to cater for the wide gamut of preferences, tastes and diets of as many of our lovely customers as we can.
For this reason we make a selection of dairy-free and vegan products - which all have a similar consistency to our gelato - but are lactose free. We also stock Gluten-free cones so those with a Gluten intolerance are able to enjoy having ice cream in a cone.
All our Gelato flavour labels also show what (if any) allergens are present and, in true artisan style and to minimise the possibility of cross contamination, each flavour is served using its own spatula.
We want to make everybody's visit a fun experience which will prompt them to return so, from our exciting revolving cabinet to the soft creaminess and diverse flavours of our Gelato, it is our ambition for everyone to leave with a smile on their face.
One customer's recent review:
"We chanced upon this ice-cream parlour yesterday and have to say it was fantastic. Having tasted several of the flavours you can understand why there was a queue outside! Several of our group enjoyed the marmalade & whisky and chocolate ice cream. I thought the Turkish Delight flavour with its gentle floral notes was a good contrast to the smooth dark chocolate flavour. It was very pleasant sitting in the sunshine by the harbour-side and with plenty of flavours to mix and match we're sure to come back!" (Trip Advisor May 2021)
