Fabio's Gelato in North Hertfordshire

Fabio's is the perfect spot for a Sunday treat with the kids! I took three children for ice cream, and we were all impressed by the wide selection of flavors and the incredibly fresh taste. The lovely weather made it ideal for grabbing our cones and strolling around town. The staff was quick and efficient, which is essential on a hot summer day when the shop is buzzing with customers. Overall, Fabio's is definitely a great choice for a family outing—highly recommend it!

Totally overrated. I think the customer service has got a lot worse since it moved location. The new location is far too small and cramped. The staff are rude and unhelpful. I went this week and the ice cream was overpriced and weak on flavour. I recommend you don’t bother, they don’t deserve your custom.

Took the family for an ice cream and asked for two flavours the young girl behind the counter served a large amount of one flavour and a very marginal amount of the other, i asked if she could make it a bit more well balanced she said no as they have strict portions. Given the fact they dont use scoops but a flat spoon i felt cheated. The whole interaction was quite uncomfortable i wouldn't return again hitchin has many other options.

My son loves this place for a special treat. We went for his birthday and He recommends the pancake and maple syrup gelato. Delicious!

I feel the need to put an updated review. We've visited many times since their move to the square and they have always been incredibly smiley and friendly, everything has been perfect, even being served in the last seconds before they close for the day. So pleased they've reopened!

I went in to Fabios when it was very busy, however the employees were handling the pressure very well, especially Ines. I ordered a Biscoff millshake and it was made to perfection. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely get it again! Fabulous employees and a fabulous milkshake! Well done Fabios and Ines!!!

On holiday from Scotland, we visited Hitchin on a Friday afternoon and went into Fabio's for some treats. We ordered a range of items - cakes, hot drinks and gelato. All was going great! Until we went to pay... 'sorry, we don't accept Scottish bank notes. We didn't make this decision - the owner did. He doesn't accept them as we can't tell if they are real or fake'. We were gobsmacked. Fabio's Gelato was only place we visited in England that didn't accept Scottish notes. If you have an issue accepting bank notes from the greatest country of all time as payment, please invest in a counterfeit machine or pen to check the notes your customers are using are real. We could see the girl serving us thought it was ridiculous by the way she looked at us, and rightly so. Who was to say the English note we reluctantly ended up using wasn't fake? This wasn't checked for authenticity. Counterfeit machines are relatively inexpensive and would really allow more of your Scottish customers to enjoy your handmade gelato.

Absolutely sensational. We had an amazing assortment of scotch eggs each delicious. I had the strawberry cheese cake valentines special completed with a Colin on top, which in these times, is an absolute steal! Wonderful,attentive, smiley service. Special shout out to Ines for managing our large order and accommodating our strange tea request. Pay rise deserved! The biggest disservice was that we didn’t have any cash to tip. Highly recommend!

Visited all summer so thought to leave a review. It got me through a very hot summer . Gelato to die for. Please open a shop in Stevenage You will be packed!! My favourite is black cherry but also love pistachio and various other flavours . Friendly staff too. I was never into ice cream so much before I visited here.

Some of the best Gelato I have tried, the peanut and hazelnut flavours are fantastic. The staff are very friendly and very apologetic when the queues are long, however with gelato this good you don't mind waiting! They have various different flavours in different sizes and also do tubs to take home. I certainly will be recommending Fabios to friends and family.

I've visited twice recently and the first time I had the pistachio ripple and vegan chocolate, in a chocolate dipped cone. It was absolutely delicious, probably the best pistachio ice cream I've ever had. The second time (a week later lol) was chocolate and salted caramel. The chocolate was nice, but I much preferred the richness of the vegan version. The salted ice cream was nice, but a little too sweet for me. The Biscoff brownie was probably the best brownie I've ever had. Seriously good. I wish I had the recipe. Highly recommend.

Gorgeous ice cream, full of flavour and so creamy. Our son had his first ever ice cream here, a big day for us! We will be going again next week.

Daughter had a waffle and 2 scoops of gelato. She absolutely loved it. Gelato flavours are amazing. It's so nice for something to actually taste like what it's supposed to. Never had a bad visit to fabios. Highly recommended

Living far away from Hitchin, it's tough to get our Fabio's fix especially during the current restrictions but now Fabio's has solved that issue with their stunning at home kits. It was really fast delivery and the instructions were very easy to follow. Finally the final product, it was absolutely delicious and I highly recommend!

Fabios never fails to blow my mind. They consistently produce new and amazing ice cream flavours. Pigs in blankets, popcorn, salted caramel, bubblegum, blue cheese, marmite, straciatella, croccante, rum and raisin. You name it they make it. You think of it and they will make that too. The customer service and shop are always 10/10. On my recent visit I purchased an ice cream cake for my sons birthyday (gelato cake). It was unreal, taking the icecream and cake game to a new level. Keep up the amazing work.

The best gelato I’ve tasted. Great service and innovative flavours keep us coming back. Keep an eye on their Instagram for latest flavours - the sell out fast

Great ice cream, we had four different flavours between us and our young granddaughter thought she was in heaven. We also tried a very decent brownie while the service was friendly and attentive. Sadly quiet on a cool September afternoon, I’m sure it must get packed when the sun’s out. Keep up the good work Fabio.!

We have visited a few times now, to be honest the ice cream just doesn't have enough flavour! We even tried the specials, like the cinnamon roll but it just didn't taste of much! We preferred halo top healthy version you can buy at Tesco, as it had more flavour with cinnamon dough chunks in. We also tried the peanut butter jelly, you could just about taste the Peanut butter and hardly any jam or jelly. Really disappointed and won't be returning

You can’t fault the ice cream selection but portions small and over priced! Our first visit for desserts to celebrate my sisters birthday, she had a waffle, close to £10 and portion size small. As I said delicious ice creams.....

Fast, cheerful and friendly service. Excellent interaction with customers by all the staff. Fabulous range of ice creams. A great time was had by all. Highly recommend a visit when you are in the area!

Fabio's is a bright friendly ice cream parlour with an interesting selection of flavours always avalable. When we visited they even had Pigs in Blankets flavour ice cream although I went for a combination of the Banana and the Nutella Ripple flavours. Over summer they had stopped doing waffles to avoid serving delays but they are now back on the menu which is very welcome.

Arrived with family on a sweltering day and it was exactly what we all needed. Big kudos to the very welcoming young assistant called Milo (?) Who welcomed four young excited children and myself. Thoroughly recommend.

We were wandering past on a hot night and decided to have some gelato. It was amazing, and tasted better than it looked! The staff were friendly and welcoming as well

Another fantastic visit to the best gelato/ice cream place in England. Service from staff is also very strong, as they were attentive and made you feel welcome. Site was very clean which shows they care about the shop. Range of flavours truly insane as well!

My other half loved the ice cream I had the sorbet!! I could eat the lemon sorbet every day easily it was amazing!!

Great choice of ice cream flavours and friendly staff - when we came, it was quite busy, but that was mostly because of Hermitage festival being on. The only real problem was that we came as a big group and this is definitely not a place to when there are a lot of you; we couldn't even fit around two tables together.

Lot fabios. The flavours are great and always tastes luxurious. But in the shop it is soooooo!!!! HOT!!!!!!! need some climate control.

We decided to have our after lunch treat here and was not disappointed.An array of gelato flavours to pick from. Staff were patient as we chose what we wanted and happily served us. Great tasting gelato made on site, you can't go wrong visiting here!

We had never seen such a wonderful array of ice-cream treats and (after treating ourselves) we brought our three grandchildren to test their views. They always insist on ending meals at our home with ice cream and watching their smiling faces as they ate was a treat in itself. 100% recommend the food, the lovely staff and the atmosphere.

The good: the ice cream is made on the premises and there are a large selection of flavours, colours and options (cones, sundaes, waffles in the winter), and a unique sundae order form that was a bit like shopping at Argos! The staff were friendly and the Cadbury crunchie flavour ice cream had big lumps of real crunchie, the raspberry rubble was also very tasty.

When three generations have to each choose an ice cream from so many mouth watering flavours...it takes a lot of patience and Milo has an abundance of it...and so helpful with it! When it’s pouring with rain outside where better place could you be?!? Fabio’s!

I pop into fabio’s once a month or so as a treat either by myself or with my partner or housemates. Always a good atmosphere and nice staff members being helpful, polite, and smiley. I am dairy free and love the vegan-friendly flavours that aren’t sorbets—I wish they were out more often! I do love sorbet but often this is the only option and I love the others a lot.

Ordered 3 ice-creams, one for my toddler, and one for my sister and I. Went to pay and they wouldn’t accept my legal tender as it was a Scottish note.

Visited on a Sunday afternoon, service was quick, courteous and the tables were clean and tidy. Ice cream was superb and very tasty, I would definitely recommend this place.

My 4 children love coming to Fabios. There is a huge choice of ice creams and treats and lots of flavours to choose from. It can get very busy during the summer months so you may have to wait for a seat, but other than that it’s a great place to visit!

Only visited a couple of times. Each visit has been good, the staff are helpful and friendly, the atmosphere is always pleasant and it appears to be much cleaner than our local CREAMS! I think most of the menu is well priced apart from the milkshakes, in my opinion they are too expensive. The waffles are nice, the ice cream is of good quality, there is a lot of choice and it tastes ok too! Also had a nice coffee that didn’t disappoint as most coffee shops do - bonus. I would take the family again.

Our children love going to Fabio's and it is a treat for special occasions. Both of the ladies behind the counter were helpful and friendly and gave us a number of samples to try before we chose which flavour to have. We have four children and there are lots of flavours! As it was near Christmas, we also tried the festive flavours. (Mince pie - v nice. Pigs & Blankets....maple flavour nice, bits of sausage not so much - however my daughter still finished it!) Some of the flavours seem too sweet for my liking, but that's just a personal preference.

This ice cream parlour, has a large range of unique flavours with a lovely atmosphere, perfect to met up with the girls for a coffee and ice cream while having a chat. My personal favourite is the salted caramel!

As a family, we love Fabio’s!! We have visited regularly since it opened and have never had a negative experience! It is our children’s favourite place to go for a treat and when we have family visiting from Sheffield, Manchester or Essex - they all insist we have Fabio’s! We all have our favourite flavours but love the seasonal or special occasion flavours that are put out too, such as: mince pie, Pimms, Wedding Cake Etc! I have never tasted a bad flavour and we are always spoilt for choice! This is such a great addition to Hitchin and everyone I know loves it!! The managers really embrace Hitchin and keeping it local and I hope because of that, this business lasts a long time!! Keep the Gelato coming, the great service and range of flavours and we’ll be customers for years to come! :-)

I saw the shop and got excited but the ice cream was nothing special. I wouldn't even say nice. It has a very light watery consistency and the salted caramel did not taste of salted caramel. All I could taste was vanilla essence, the cheap one you get that tastes of chemicals. The flake was bad quality chocolate, the one that doesn't melt in your mouth because it's just fat. It sticks to the roof of your mouth not dissolving.

Three of us visited today mid afternoon. It was hot inside but thankfully service was swift. There was an impressive selection of ice cream, sorbet, cones, sweets etc. One of our party was vegan but this did not cause a problem as the sorbet in a waffle cone is vegan. Price not too bad and the ice cream and sorbet was delish. A real treat for a hot day!

Not happy with the poor service I received a Fabios gelato this eve. The assistant served my 2 relatives then ignored me and started serving another customer, who wanted to sample several different flavours before he decided which flavour he would have. No apology didn’t even notice when I walked out of the shop in disgust.

I absolutely love Fabios and have recommended to all family and friends. Always greeted with a smile and good service...especially for me being so indecisive and spoilt for choice! A great addition to Hitchin!

I am a regular customer of Fabio’s and I have never had a bad experience. Their ice-cream is totally worth the premium price because it is quality made and delicious; there’s nothing else like it around. Highly recommend

I can’t believe I haven’t been here before! My mum takes my children regularly and has always raved about it, so upon a trip to the town recently I had my 4 year old asking for Fabio’s. Super impressed with everything down to service, price etc! Will definitely be back regularly :-)

We travelled from.Suffolk to Hitchin because we heard from friends what an amazing gelato parlour Fabs is. It did not disappoint. So much choice. My wife.was worried she would not have much Choice as a vegan, so much to choose from. We will make the trip back, it's that good.

In a hot summer (and the cold ones) there is no better place than Fabio’s to grab a real treat. The staff are always on hand, knowledgable, friendly & helpful. I see some negative reviews about queues and air con. Really get a life... how would air con even work when it’s so popular they are queuing out of the open door? Also a suggestion to previous poster, treat people how you’d like to be treated yourself - just a thought.

Wonderful homemade ice cream , lots of different flavours to try and they are always bringing out new ones!

I visited here yesterday and I was pretty disappointed.

After visiting today with my daughter our second visit, i couldnt fault our first visit but todays experience was much to be desired. The ices creams are amazing but the staff seemed to be on another world. I had a cone for my daughter and i had a cup. Half the ice cream was on the outside of the cup and it looked a mess. The cone had icecream all down the side and was very messy. The girl seemed very disinterested and when i paid via card she snatched the card machine back after entering my pin. She gave me my card and receipt but said nothing, she couldnt wait to get back into the back room very unprofessional. Also during my visit i witness another customer having to wait several minutes to be served due to the staff talking. I dont think i will be returning in the near future unless im desperate for an ice cream.

A fabulous display of multifarious iced delights greets the customer, almost spoilt for choice. The service is swift and friendly, the seating area is a little utilitarian but you are not here for long. A little pricey but, you gets what you pays for.

Wow wow wow. What a treat! Such an amazing choice of gelato. Had the lime one today. So difficult not to go back for more and more and more!

I hadn’t visited Fabio for over a year but thought I would take my niece for a treat. She asked for a Waffle and was told, they take too long to make in the Summer, we then asked for a Sundaè and was told the same thing. REALLY

They always have a wide range of lovely flavours - the old favourites such as rum and raisin (would highly recommend) - as well as flavours such as Pimms, Bubblegum or cookie dough.

Went to Fabios for some Ice Cream, they had decent variety of Ice Creams however I thought it was quite pricey

I've visited Fabio's on a number of occasions now and am never disappointed. The range of flavours is amazing and always changing. Most recently I had chocolate and marmite which the member of staff allowed me to taste before ordering.

I can't fault the gelato - it is fantastic. The problem is some of the staff who seem unable to manage the faintest hint of a smile. Most recently was this past Saturday evening. So much so that I have decided I will not be served again as for me the sour faces and miserable demeanour sours the flavours. I will have to persuade others to purchase for me! Having read another comment here I think the girl serving may have been extra grumpy as I asked for just a tasting sized amount (literally wanted just a teaspoon sized amount) of the chocolate and marmite gelato for my husband to taste as he'd not headed out with us, waiting at home for us to bring the large takeaway tub back with us. I knew he'd be intrigued and if he were with us he would have asked for the same sample. Maybe she felt she was being asked to break the rules by putting an extra flavour in and felt uncomfortable doing so but she could have explained (with a smile) that it was against the rules and that would have been better, though I would have thought a ridiculous rule (there was no queue). Why work in customer facing roles if you don't actually like having customers? Also I've noticed that the takeaway tub seems difficult to fill for the last flavour leaving an air gap at the bottom, I can see that filling that area might dislodge the other flavours but maybe change the takeaway tubs to be sold by weight? PS Chocolate and Marmite was surprisingly successful!

Pimms Ice Cream - need I say more - ice cream made on the premises. Fantastic flavours and friendly service. Milkshakes, waffles, wonderful - we’ll worth a visit x😁

This shop is insane, every other ice cream shop has the usual crappy vanilla/chocolate/strawberry/mango sorbet but the flavours in Fabio's are really fun and changing constantly, if you go in a week later there'll be completely different stuff. I love it! I always take my friends here when they're visiting Hitchin.

I can’t fault the ice cream. This was some of the nicest ice cream I’ve had in ages. I’m just wondering why when eating in I wasn’t offered a proper bowl instead of take away. This would help the environment by reducing waste to landfill.

I’ve visited Fabio’s a couple of times and loved it every time. The flavours change so often and they’re fresh, made on the premises and so creamy. There’s a massive range of flavours and I struggle to narrow down the options! You can also pick from scoops in cups, cones, with waffles and more. So there’s something for everyone. The dragonfruit flavour was exceptional. My only feedback is that the service was a little brusque the last time I visited and sometimes it takes a little longer to clear the tables. But that’s nothing major, and I can’t wait to go back!

We visit this place once every few months as a treat for the children. It's a massive hit with them. They especially enjoy the chocolate bar flavours.

5/5 rating does not give it justice. The victoria spongecake was to die for but don’t get me started on the ice cream scoops. They were the best ive ever had. Nice seating too. Will be going back over the weekend.

Visited for the first time. Nice spacious seating area. The ice cream and sorbet was so good. Will definitely be going back.

I love this Gelato! Creamy, full of flavour, lots of choice! My favourite is coffee but many more are lovely. Sorbets are as creamy as ice cream. Always clean and tidy. Staff are very friendly. It’s my granddaughters favourite place and she refuses to eat any other ice cream

This little gem really is a treat! I often come here with my partner in all seasons. I cant understand how people are calling the flavours bland and tasteless, i think they must have been eating the wrong ice cream! There is always such a vast array of flavours and its great that you can taste them before you buy!

I don't think you can beat the selection of ice creams that Fabio's offers. It's so hard to make a choice and the different flavours leave you wanting more. We popped in on a Monday afternoon during half term week and it was empty. My daughter had the new donut stack and was really impressed. I can usually take or leave ice-cream but here, I would definitely take and not leave. The only reason that I didn't give Fabio's 5 stars is that it can get a bit expensive, otherwise well worth a visit .

I visited here with family on Saturday having just been for lunch and as it was a warm day an ice cream dessert was called for. Our party consisted of 4 adults and 2 small children + baby asleep in pram. We were able to sit together and 6 different flavours were enjoyed by all. Friendly staff. Will certainly return.

You leave a handful of school kids in charge on a Sunday and it's chaos.

Lovely flavours, we were a group of four and all of us enjoyed the different ice creams we tried. It was a busy Saturday afternoon and the shop was very hot and there was no where to sit but this did not trouble us too much.

My husband and I found the gelato to be very sweet but not very flavourful. We had Oreos and cream, vanilla, chocolate and all lacked the flavour We would have expected. We both left thinking we should have gone to Tesco and bought a tub of Ben & Jerry's Half Baked Ice Cream. Unfortunately this gelato can not compare and doesn't come close to the gelato we had in Italy!

I don't normally leave reviews for restaurants etc but felt the need to share my experience. We visited on Sunday at around 4.30pm. The first thing we noticed was how unbelievably hot it was inside. It was a very hot day, yet actually cooler outside than in. I made a joke with the young girl behind the counter about how she must be boiling - 'we're used to it' she snapped back - not a great start.The only flavours of ice cream available were the basics - mint choc, choc, vanilla etc, the 4 fancy flavours on show all had signs in saying they needed time to cool to the right temp as we're too frozen to scoop. I can forgive this, I understand all ice cream is made on site and we visited late in the day. I can not however forgive the TERRIBLE attitude of the staff member serving us. She just looked so miserable. Her answers were really abrupt and she didn't crack a smile through the whole transaction. She looked visibly annoyed at us when we requested a small sample of the mango Ice cream for my 3 year old to try, and absolutely disgusted when we asked for another sample for our 4 year old. We honestly felt like we were bothering her by trying to place our order, it was ridiculously uncomfortable. Once we had our ice cream we sat outside, but not before removing the debris the previous occupants had left behind and wiping the sticky table ourselves with the baby wipes we had to hand. There were empty pots, spoons and tissues everywhere. I understand that staff may struggle to keep on top of cleaning during busy periods, but there's we're at least 2 or 3 young girls standing behind the counter not doing anything. Ice cream was nice, but I can not get over the absolutely terrible customer service, especially being a 'family run business'. I get it was hot and the staff were probably a uncomfortable but please don't make us feel so unwelcome if we do choose to visit again, which to be honest I can't see us doing.

Once again a delicious visit. So many flavours to choose from. Love coming over to Fabio's for our gelato.Even when the seating area is busy, usually by the time we have chosen our flavours and paid there is a table free. If you are in need of a gelato fix Fabio's is definitely worth a visit.

Brilliant choice , especially after a meal , nice and quiet of an evening and well worth the visit . We go back often with the kids . Immaculately clean

We've been to Fabios a number of times and find them to serve consistently good quality, tasty ice cream (if you exclude the bright blue bubblegum flavour, no matter how popular it is with children of a certain age who love it!). The coffee is also nice. Overall, highly recommended.

First time to the Hitchin area and came across Hermitage Rd. There were lots of things available on this street. Found FG's on the off chance. It quite a nice setting inside and had a good range of Gelato/ice cream available. I opted for a plain cone with Chocolate & Hazelnut scoops. It was good. I wish I could say it was the best, but unfortunately; not the best I've ever had. Nonetheless, it had all the staple flavours and quirky flavours of cones. I was quite surprised that they sold large volume tubs. Which is a USP! Spent £3.60 and I was left content. Worth a trip for sure.

Great range of flavours in a modern setting. Staff are friendly and very helpful. You can try the different flavours before you make your mind up!Delicious

Definitely worth a visit. Staff very patient as variety of flavours vast, it takes a while to decide. Would recommend the waffles.

It's great for kids and adults and they have a massive selection of Gelato. The staff are very friendly and is kept very clean. It's always busy and particularly when it's sunny so do expect to queue, it's worth the wait. My only comment is if you want more than Gelato and have a coffee, it's not very nice and probably the only thing they need to improve on.

Love it here, so many choices, not enough room in my belly for all of the ones I want!!! Just have to make loads and loads of visits!!!

Superb variety, the servings are very good and plentiful. Service is always good and the prices are reasonable for the top quality ice-cream. The waffles are delicious and so are the hot drinks.

Traditional Italian ice cream made on site,Great selection, and great quality. Bit on the expensive side so if you've got a family be careful.When the sun shines this place is mobbed,

We have wandered past this place so many times that I've been dying for a chance to try it but hasn't ever been the right time/weather etc. We recently stopped by on our way home & both ordered 2 scoops of different flavours. Unfortunately I was really disappointed with the flavours. The ice creams & sorbets are both really creamy however I just didn't get the punch of flavour from either - if my eyes had been closed then I wouldn't have been able to tell you what flavour I had. My husband had the chocolate & a black forest/cherry flavour. I had the passionfruit ice cream & lemon sorbet - both really underwhelming. The chocolate one was really sickly but the cherry was nice. It is quite pricey however the portion sizes are pretty good as you do get a good sized scoop.

Fabulous variety of delicious ice cream. Well worth the queues and with the loss of Just Desserts in the town it's a good alternative

Very good Italian ice creams. Good variety of flavors. Healthy options as well. Good space. Very good place to go

We are a Spanish-Italian couple, and self-proclaimed ice cream expert. We have tried gelatos across all Europe, including Gianni's in Bologna, calle Princesa in Barcelona, and others in Brighton and Dorset. We have been living for two years in Hitchin, and in summer we come to Fabio Gelato every week. It is a pretty good gelato and the best in the Hertfordshire so far. The price is also accessible and much more affordable than London. The selection of flavors is also good, and they have some fancy options, like the Pokemon and some based on candies/biscuits (cadbury, oreo). They could add some more "chocolatey" flavor, though, or something elaborated like the "Che Fatica Farlo" of Gianni in Bologna.The shop is also well equipped for families. There is a "buggy park" and many chairs for toddles. It is often full of families with kids and it is a meeting point for many activities.

We'd just been next door for dinner, and needed some proper pudding. We took a selection away in some neat poly containers.Wow! As before, great choices, great service, great Gelato!

Excellent ice cream parlour harking back to a bygone age. gelato at its best. Staff friendly and welcoming. Know their ice cream flavours. Coffee is good. Cakes can sometimes be dry.

Best ice cream I've ever tasted locally. They have so many different flavors (some very unique). You can even choose your own "bubble gum" flavoured syrup to add onto your ice cream.

Finally! Waited for approx 2 years to have this again and saw a post on Facebook saying it would be in so rushed down there. Absolutely perfect for the hot weather and as good as I remember it! Chuffed to bits. Gelato here is excellent everytime.

I have been here twice as my partner's grandson lives nearby and loves coming here for a treat. Everything regarding cleanliness and service was fine. However the gelato doesn't really impress me. The sweetness has been commented on previously. In addition to this some of the flavours taste slightly artificial. However grandson loves them so that ids the main thing,,.

Came here for the first time the other day and wasn't disappointed! The ice cream was so delicious and there's lots of flavours to choose from! They also serve waffles, milkshakes and brownies. Staff were friendly and welcoming, would recommend!

We regularly stop here for a gelato. The flavours are excellent and innovative and the staff are always friendly

Popped in here in a Saturday lunch time with my daughter. This place gets busy and seating can be hard to get over the weekend.The selection is good and tastes great. You can also get waffles made or grab a coffee in here.My daughter loved it, I enjoyed it but it is on the pricey side to be fair.Also when we went a number of the ice cream selections were not available as they were labelled to hard to be served.All in all a good venue for a treat but alittle pricey. out of 5

Having been a regular to Fabio's since opening day (in fact since following the process of it setting up on instagram) - I felt it warranted a review! This place is a gem. Great for meeting up with friends, a post dinner dessert or just a Saturday treat. I love the ever changing selection of flavours and it's the nicest gelato I have ever tasted. So pleased we have this place on our doorstep!

Fabio's is a lovely ice cream shop, it's light and airy and serves the most delicious ice cream. I had cherry cola which was remarkable, my husband had jammie dodger and raspberry ripple which he loved. If we visit Hitchin again we will definitely be back for more.

We have many visitors coming to see us and nothing like a walk around the town and then stop of for a ice cream at the Fabio's. I have been so many occasions to this place and one of my favourite stops. Another reason to come here is a treat after school or a playdate for the kids. Really a nice meeting point as we can then take the ice cream to the town and sit near the church. One of my favourites is the salted caramel that they make however they do change the flavours depending on the season and festival. The only thing is that this is no a cheap place to visit on a regular times and therefore we don't go as often. It is nice for a treat now and again.

Who doesn't love a gelato shop! Some great creations lie in this place that need trying. They often have ice creams surrounding holidays/events. Always a go to place for me when visiting the in laws

We had gelato, waffles and coffee which were delicious. The staff were very patient considering how long it look the children to choose what they wanted! Simple decor with a nice bright feel to it. Great for a treat or a light lunch.

Visited on a saturday evening for dessert after a meal elsewhere. Excellent selection of freshly made ice creams and sorbets. Everyone in our party was impressed with the food and the service which was prompt with no queuing. It was noted that they also do drinks. Restaurant was clean and well kept with plenty of places to sit. We will be visiting again.
