Gelato Gusto in Brighton and Hove - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Gelato Gusto is a specialist ice cream shop in the centre of Brighton. It has lots of tables and chairs on the road outside of the shop as well as inside. Not only does Gelato Gusto offer ice cream but it also sells a range of special donuts. The shop gets very busy as it’s so popular so you may have to wait, but service is efficient. The staff offer tasters and they are very efficient and friendly.

posizione molto strategica e in centro, il gelato è buono (lo dico da italiana). ha delle pecche però, infatti rispetto ad altre gelaterie come “la mucca nera” (che credo sia molto meglio di questa) ha prezzi più alti per poi darti una quantità minore di gelato. non chiedono nemmeno cono o coppetta, a mio parere scelta fondamentale. scelta dei gusti nemmeno troppo vasta. se volete spendere bene i vostri soldi per un gelato andate da “la mucca nera”, su esperienza personale la consiglio.

Choice of gelato or sorbet .Many flavours. High season always a queue. This visit went just before closing time ,sneaking a cone before departing to ice cream desert on the train. Mascarpone and fig .

Really lovely icecream and excellent service. What sets this appart are the fresh and interesting flavours and good quality ingredients. I had never tried Ameretto and Marmalade or Fig and both flavours were grownup and delicious. Service was friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Small and cosy donut and ice cream cafe found amongst the lanes. We ordered white chocolate and salted caramel donut bites which were delicious! 😍 Cafe was very popular due to their wide variety of ice cream and donut flavours. Staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was welcoming. Would recommend to anyone!

Been coming here for years - best ice cream in Brighton (and there is a lot!). Lots of great classic flavours but also more innovative and seasonal choices too making choosing always difficult! High quality product - will continue to return!

Good ice cream and a very good atmosphere, the guys who serve you are super nice

Consistently excellent ice cream with a good variety of flavours. It is relatively pricey but it's in line with other Brighton ice cream shops, so it's what you expect from a tourist hotspot. The only reason I would rate a 4 rather than a 5 is that it seems to have developed an odd pattern of closing during less popular days and hours. So, sometimes you expect it to be open and it isn't. I think this mainly affects the off-season months though.

Friendly staff, generous scoop sizes and all the flavours we had were great!

A beautiful little place. The most incredible flavours of icecream... favourite last time we visited was jaffa cake icecream 👌

Ice cream in the lanes! Different flavours to chose from, vegan options available too! good texture and tasty. Indoors seats but in hot days can be quite warm too.

Expensive and overhyped. Tried 3 flavours, pistachio was very good, lotus was overly cinnamony, ferrero had no hazelnut flavor and the crunchy bits went all mushy. Was going to add a star for student discount but I am taking it away as the gelato was way too cold (had ice built up).

really bad service , rude employees, do not care about customers they didn’t attend us even tough we were inside and queueing just before 7pm for 10min and when someone made a reclaim and left the store one of the employees showed them the middle finger as they left

Baileys and forero rocher ice cream, a must! lovely staff, lovely ice cream parlours, lovely flavours. great vegan selection. thanks!

Pistachio ice cream review. 1 scoop = £3.80 Place is chic and lovely. You can test. Good portion. If you seat by the window during summer it’s lovely and cooling. We have eaten over hundreds of gelato pistachios around the world however they are only 4 star in our review. It’s not as concentrated as gelato from Italy or Greece. Still a good place to visit. I would give it 4.5 but google don’t allow me too Thanks and enjoy it!

So many lovely vegan options! We went three times during four days in Brighton and enjoyed every flavour we tried. Nice staff, too.

Vegan (dairy-free) ice cream available

Bought three ice creams and one coffee. Ice creams were mediocre and coffee poor too. I asked for a glass of water to drink with the coffee but was told there "was an issue" with the water but I could buy bottled water (bottled in plastic). I asked what the issue was and the staff panicked and said they weren't allowed to by the new managers. What a terribly un-customer and un-planet friendly policy. I live nearby but definitely won't come back. Brass Monkey in the Laines will get my custom in future.

Not really good but at least is cheaper of others places that are not good anyway. You would pay double prices and same quality for places next to the sea. Take mint, vanilla or biscuits cream! Avoid strawberry and all the sorbets! Ah.. if you are italian, just because you read gelato gusto.. so an italian name, well the place the ice cream quality isn’t italian at all!

No waffles or crepes when I visited on a Sunday, no sign or warning, until already there and ordered a drink.

Have visited every time we are fortunate enough to spend a weekend in Brighton. Delicious icecream (which is a little expensive but that’s a busy seaside town I guess) every time. Always wish the malteasers flavour was more available as that’s the best one! Staff are always very friendly & willing to let guests try flavours before committing. Dropped a star as on the last visit the toilet was quite grubby with no loo roll available.

Personale gentile, ma il gelato era davvero pessimo!

Lots of great flavours - very unusual...had the Earl Grey and lemon ripple I think it was...very good and you can taste the quality..there was also a seating area and you can also have a waffle or crepe...

good prices, large flavour selection. would personally recommend the strawberry

Delicious gelato in this place lots of variety flavours to choose from . Worth coming here if you are around the Brighton area. Best gelato in town for all to give it a try.

Great ice cream, but could have done with a few more traditional flavours eg: strawberry, vanilla and chocolate. A bit of a wait but worth it.

Delicious ice cream, possibly the best I've had In the UK, served with a smile and a lot of patience for the children.

Stopped by just for a coffee but no ice cream. Ice creams looked good, but weren't in the mood for one - perhaps another day. Coffee was good service was too.

試了熱情果、桃和椰子味。熱情果和桃味的香精味很強，味道不夠天然濃郁。椰子味不過不失。 其他味道都是餅乾味（biscoff/locus etc），感覺材料很普通，沒有吸引到我。 值得讚賞的是雪糕筒好吃和份量夠大。

What a place! Amazing flavours! You must try elderflower gelato ❤

Excellent range and quality of ice-cream. Can be very crowded.

Tiramisu was great, toasted almond was also good! Service was quick and suitable sizes for price, location, and food.

Charged me for a cone 10p for my daughter because she had a cup, nice one

Really friendly and helpful staff. The queue was quite long and I felt pressured but the staff were really nice. The flavours are great and I haven't had a bad one

Queuing for awhile only to find out they don't take cash 👎👎getting a bit mift now with places that stop taking money i take cash out at weekend so its easier to budget with..I dont like using card .👎why ffs

Great ice cream, was totally blown away by the Roquefort Walnut & Honey flavour, fans of blue cheese have to try this!!!

Staff almost as sweet as the delicious ice cream

We called in for a gelato yesterday afternoon. It was warm and sunny, so we sat outside. Good for people watching! I had pistachio and vanilla and OH had cherry and vanilla. All yummy and worth the queue.

seriously the best ice cream i’ve had in agessss - u defo have to try the strawberry and sea salt caramel they were banging 🙏🙏

Helados de baja calidad. Precio altos. LO SIRVEN ABUNDANTE PERO UN GUSTO O DOS. PODRIAN HACERLO DE 2 O 3. PARA PROBAR MAS GUSTOS. MUY CAROOO

This place was amazing. Great flavours. If you love Gelato you need to visit this place

Great ice cream. Went here in October.

The gelato was absolutely delicious Especially recommend the pistachio flavour 😋😋

Had a vegan ginger nut cone. Very good

Small lovely shop with a great selection even for vegan,the pistachio was amazing. Will visiting again,if around.

Delicious ice cream, lovely staff..sat outside..sadly experienced some aggressive begging but didnt put me off.

Great tasty ice cream with massive portions. Good amount of vegan options too.

Having been visiting since their opening I still always make sure I head into Gelato Gusto on every return visit to Brighton. Good coffee is the side show for the truly outstanding ice creams, sorbet and gelato. A wide range of flavours is always changing and I have never sampled a dud. Slightly resisted indoor seating was on offer on this visit but make the effort it get in and sample the amazing flavours on offer.

Great double scoops £4.10 and the gelato doesn't melt as soon as you leave the store which is great. I had pistachio and walnut. Pistachio was very nice, walnut tasted like vanilla but LOADED with sugar. Still have a headache from the sugar overload. Would get pistachio again though and the girl serving was super nice.

Gelato Gusto located in the bustling Gardner Street. Popped in during a quiet moment and ordered the Toffee Popcorn flavoured ice cream. The ice cream tasted just like eating Toffee Popcorn. Very impressed and only £2.85 a scoop or cone (I had the cone).

Really good waffles, gelato and coffee. Will be back

Ordered two crepes and they said it would be about ten minutes. 30 minutes later we still didnt receive our food and turns out they had forgot about it, so they rushed it and the crepes wasnt properly cooked and didnt taste very nice. Very disappointed and wish we got a refund.

Nice to place to have waffles and ice cream.

One of the best ice creams I’ve ever tried so far. Strongly recommend. Located right by the seaside, always with a huge queue. But 100% worth it!

What a find! Love this shop, great selection of flavours, ice-cream and sorbet offered. Hot drinks and cold drinks too. Only thing letting it down for me not all serving staff have long hair tied back resulting in it being fidgeted with and flicked around.

Visited with my son, who is lacto intolerant. They had a nice selection of about 5 vegan gelatos and 5 sorbets, and were quite happy for him to taste one before buying it. I had the salted caramel flavour and it was stunning.

で、デカイ！笑 ワッフルに2つ乗っけてもらったら4人分くらいのサイズだった 美味しいけどすぐに溶けるので注意

Lovely icecream and plenty of vegan options

We live in Hastings and have a boutique ice cream shop locally that is really good. We've always told visiting friends that it's the best ice cream they'll ever try. However, on a day trip to Brighton yesterday we walked past this place and bought a couple of cones. They were very good, and yes, to our surprise better than our local boutique ice cream parlour. Huge portions too - so much so that my cone actually broke under the weight after a couple of minutes. Would highly recommend.

Visit Gelato Gusto for an excellent ice cream treat, plenty of choices and excellent service to make it a must stop while wandering the lanes.

Delicious! A very creative shop, as you will find many unusual flavours! The Lychee & Rose flavour is worth a try! Would be perfect if the cones were slightly better.

Ice cream is nice and smooth literally melting in your mouth 😏 Good but not great

I tried the vegan raspberry ripple gelato and oh my goodness. I could not tell it was vegan- it was so delicious and amazing and I wish I could get it in a tub to take home (seriously, if anyone sees it let me know)....

Awesome vegan ice cream options - we go here all the time, and for our wedding they specially made us vegan rum raisin ice cream. They're AMAZING!!! Thank you so much!!

It's often crowded, they sometimes run out of your favourite flavour, but they do a decent gelato...and they're right next door to the bubble tea shop, so you can do your double sweet-carbs self comforting in one queasy hit.

Fantastic ice cream selection, with vegan options. Very tasty 🍦

amazing. it's worth to stand out the long queue

I visited Gelato Gusto today with my girlfriend specifically for dairy free ice cream. Upon arrival I noticed the left hand side of the counter was dedicated to vegan ice creams and sorbets. I asked the staff which of the ice creams are gluten free and also 100% dairy free not just vegan. They didn’t seem to be fully confident on the ingredients in the products, and simply advised that the ones without biscuits ‘should’ be gluten free. This is not acceptable for people with coeliac disease and NGDS. They also didn’t seem to understand the distinction between dairy free products and vegan products because many vegan products may contain traces of dairy. I feel the staff need some proper training on food allergens and the ingredients of the products offered. I also think the products could be labelled better on the front counter to state which products contain allergens like gluten and dairy. The ice cream itself was pretty good , but I couldn’t fully enjoy it because the staff didn’t fill me with confidence that what I was eating was allergen free for me. I also would have liked some more flavour options.

Nice staff, very good flavours which they often change. Good range of vegan ice cream too.

Great service and top notch icream

Reece Cup, Rum & Raisen - seemed like a foot of deliiciousness; deffo a two-hander! Best value spend in sooo long... Lads, you are feeders!

The ice cream was nice but unless the chocolate dipped cone is £2 each - which is unbelievable for that quality - I was overcharged. So double check what you pay when you visit.

For this price, it was quite a disappointment.

Amazingly tasty ice cream in a nice setting. Can sit inside so don't need to worry about bad weather. Good prices for quality gelato.

JUST TRY THIS GELATO! You will not regret.

10/10. Even vegan options available 😏 Staff caring and kind. Even got a neck massage off one member of staff.

Stopped here just for coffee etc on a day trip to Brighton. Only 1 person allowed at a time. Service very quick and good. No issues with hygiene. Sanitiser readily available. Track and trace system in place. Nice place to stop and enjoy a coffee

Lemon ice cream was great, pineapple not to my taste at all I’m afraid. Cute shop though, and there was outdoor seating.

We visited the outlet a week ago and we saw a signage advertising for crepes and waffle but after queing for almost 15-20minutes even there are around 5 person there with kids it turns out that no crepe or waffle in the store.. the staff were very slow assisting customer. it would be helpful if there is information on the item not available in the store. We just wasted our time queing for the item not available..

Reasonable price with very large portion. But as for the Gelato, the earl grey flavor is too sweet for me and the pistachio flavor tastes not strong enough.

one of the best gelato in Brighton :)

I had a very good experience at Gelato Gusto. A small queue when I arrived which went very quickly. Had to enter with a mask. The whole shop did great with safety measures. Card only. They even requested that I used the QR code for...

Delicious and interesting flavours

Мороженое волшебное! А вот столики такие грязные... 2 шарика - 4.10 £. Вкусы самые невероятное - что не возьмёшь, все потрясающе вкусно!!!

Lots of options, with about half of them vegan. Went for the trusty salted caramel after being offered recommendations from the servers. Very tasty waffle cone and generous portion size (I got one scoop, which was plenty for me). Friendly service and only a small queue (one in at a time due to covid), located in the heart of the North Laine.

Nice little shop but the waffle I had wasn't very nice at all. No taste or flavour to it even with Nutella & Banana. Disappointing for the price (£18 for two with coffee) Also very low on ingredients. My final selection was the result two failed previous orders. Service and coffee was good and I'm sure ice cream would also be good.

Italian name, but no pistachio. Sad.

I went to 'gelato gusto' on the seafront. Awful customer service. We were still choosing the flavours and the girl started doing the ice cream and just left them on the till to melt. By the end they were all melted. She started without giving us time to choose. The ice cream was mediocre

The same gloves used to pick some tissue from the floor and clean it been used to serve the customer and touch cones and stuff. Left the queue straight away. I feel sorry for the child before me.

Great gelato. Small selection, but they had all the essentials.

The ice cream here is amazing. No regrets about getting two scoops every day for a week last summer.

Ice cream was amazing such different but wonderful flavours like rhubarb and lychee or lemon and lavender

Delicious ice creams. Couldn't be better

Never had such delicious vegan ice-cream and some much choice

Excellent ice creams and sorbets in a wide choice of appetising flavours. Generous servings. Tables inside.

Really awesome ice cream. The blood orange sorbet in particular was epic! The staff was really friendly too.

We have been visiting for years, have tried many others around the country and this is our fave :)

Great place for all the ice cream you can eat..

Whenever I’m in town I have to visit Gelato Gusto. Not only can you get a great flat white and relax and read but the ice cream is some of the best in the UK and I’ve shopped around. The range of flavours is amazing...
