One of our family’s favorite spots in Milan is Venchi Cioccolato e Gelato, a charming gelateria and chocolate boutique located just steps from the iconic Duomo. Despite the almost constant line, the wait is always worth it for their rich, creamy gelato made fresh daily. Venchi’s story dates back to 1878 when Silviano Venchi began crafting chocolate in Turin, and today the shop continues that legacy by offering not only exceptional gelato but also a selection of chocolates, pralines, and truffles. The gelato flavors range from chocolate to fresh fruit varieties. Conveniently located on Via Giuseppe Mengoni, just a short walk from Milan’s Duomo, Venchi is the perfect sweet stop to refresh while exploring the heart of the city.
