Giovanni's Ice Cream Parlour and Coffee Shop in Shropshire

Scrumptious waffle, and I'm told the crepe was excellent as well. Our first port of call on our weekly visit to Bridgnorth.

Such a great local business in Bridgnorth. Always a friendly welcome and you can't beat their coffee - the best in town and I'll be back again soon.

We live in Bridgnorth and visit often, my daughter is addicted to the Kinder Bueno waffles and I cannot get enough of the delicious crepes and coffee. One of our favourite cafes in town.

Always the best service and tastiest crepes at Giovanni’s. Love going her for a coffee and crepe. Sugar and butter crepes is a must try.

Italian cars on high street and superb ham n cheese crepes at giovannis to refuel. And of course the best ice cream in town to head back to the high street with.

Another visit to Giovanni's last Sunday for crêpes ( lemon/sugar and Cheese/egg) and coffees . As usual we were greeted with great food , efficient service and a friendly atmosphere . We wouldn't go anywhere else in Bridgnorth.

I’ve been visiting Giovanni’s for many years as I’m a Bridgnorth Resident! It’s a place to meet interesting People while you enjoy your Tea, Coffee or Crepe’. Your Dog will receive a Biscuit, which always goes down well ! Don’t be disappointed if you don’t see ‘Sam’, she’s moved on to Pastures New ! She’s passed the Baton on to Emily, who has worked at Giovannis’ for many Years. To find this ‘Little Gem of a Cafe’, head for the Cartway, and it’s on your left, right at the top ! They serve the Best IceCream in Town with a Fantastic Choice! My particular choice is Salted Caramel but there’s lots more to to pick from! When you visit Bridgnorth, make sure to give them a try!

Giovanni’s is a lovely little café. There’s a wide variety of ice cream, beverages and drinks for a reasonable price especially considering they target tourists. All staff are very pleasant and passionate. Most importantly, all the ice creams and beverages are delicious!

From a Google search we found you guys. Fantastic food, service and so much love to our 5 month old puppy. We ordered hot drinks, waffles and a crepe. All delicious and a great lunchtime treat. We popped into the shop as well to get doggie treats. Beautiful shop and great service. Will pop back when we are in bridgenorth again :)

My husband, my two boys (ages 6 and 7) and I were visiting Bridgnorth on the recent Severn Valley Spring Steam Gala. My husband found this place from a simple Google search. We all had ice cream and I was desperate for a cup of coffee that wasn't instant. The ice cream was made at a local farm and it was the best ice cream I had. I had salted caramel and honeycomb. The coffee was smooth with a chocolate undertone. I was so impressed with the coffee. The lady who served me in the ice cream parlour said that I could take the house blend home with me. So I popped to the store next door. Not only can you get your coffee ground to the desired size or take it home as beans. But you can also get loose teas, porridge oats, lentils. As well as refill your Faith and Nature bottles. It is definitely worth a visit to this eco friendly shop if you're ever in Bridgnorth. I'm looking forward to returning there next time we make our trip to the Severn Valley Railway. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Excellent customer service. Excellent products.

Nice little place that has some great ice-cream flavours. The clotted cream and balckcurrant flavour was lovely!

We keep going back. The tea cakes are a treat. The crepes are gorgeous especially the smoked salmon. The ice cream is smooth and creamy.

Out for a walk and called in for a coffee and tea cakes, best coffee in the town. Lovely staff alway pleasant and dog friendly.

Great ice cream, one scoop was plenty for me. Lots of choice, very friendly staff. I hope the new clotted cream and black currant is available on my next visit

They had some unusual flavors which enticed me inside, as well as the sign advertising ice cream for dogs too. Worth a visit.

Definitely the best welcome and service. We live in Bridgnorth and Giovanni’s is our ice cream shop of choice!

Great ice cream and friendly staff. I they do a dog friendly ice cream that our dog loved! They take card payments unlike other ice cream parlours in Bridgnorth which is helpful. We will be back again with Buddy!

friendly warm welcome, great selection of ice cream which is really tasty, perfect crepe and excellent coffee, looking forward to our next visit

Popped in purely by chance for a post lunch ice cream. They have an excellent selection of flavours and even have my favourite - "Pistacio"! Friendly staff - always a plus

Giovanni’s Ice Cream Parlour, Coffee Shop & Creperie. Bridgnorth Situated at 97 Cartway, just off the High Street, the welcome was lovely, service excellent and the coffees and ice cream hit the right spot. Coffees are either one or two shot and the ice cream from Bennetts with various flavours to choose from. Lovely way to have a rest before going for a trip on the steam train. Regards Gary Saunders

When in Bridgnorth this little gem of a find is the perfect place to drop in for a really decent coffee, convivial hosts and it's dog friendly too! Oh yes! The food is said to be really lovely and delicious too, although we have yet to have time to indulge! Iced creams are also a speciality and with an outside catering service offered for weddings and events. A little bone-shaped dog biscuit is delivered alongside the coffee/tea which is a really lovely touch....and a lovely surprise! ..AND with a human chocolate covered biscuit delight too! Just walk a little way down the Cartway in Bridgnorth and this little place is on your left when leaving the High Street. This is yet another fabulous addition to our beautiful Bridgnorth High Street.

We stopped in for coffee having read the good reviews. The cafe is small about 7 tables so we managed to squeeze in. The coffee is amazing - and we know our coffee but the welcome even better. Our dog was made very welcome by other customers and staff and a special home cooked biscuit on a dish was brought out for him! What also made it so good was how friendly everyone was. Brignorth is a lovely little town.

The ice cream here was extremely tasty and I highly recommend the cappuccino flavour. Great way to break the ice and chill out on a nice warm day!

The ice cream is absolutely delicious and I would recommend the ginger and honey. Our grandson had strawberry and wouldn’t let us have a lick it was so good.

Stayed for the weekend in Bridgnorth and so pleased we found this fab place! Lovely warm welcome and staff very obliging when I asked to swap to brie in my gallette. The food was delicious and fresh,and very reasonably priced! And our dog was made very welcome with a homemade dog biscuit! Would highly recommend ....

A brilliant place to stop off with your dog for a coffee and snack. Most places welcome dogs, but outside only, not here, where you are allowed in the warm.

Dropped in here for breakfast. We both chose galettes which were very good.

Having visited Giovanni’s often for coffee I decided to branch out and try a galette as a weekend treat. Chose the bacon, Brie and cranberry. Both crepes and galettes are made fresh to order and mine was delicious! Highly recommend this cafe, always guaranteed a friendly welcome from Sam and all the staff!

Delicious ice cream served by polite and friendly staff. Ideally situated to watch the world go by or a quick catch up with friends . Will definitely be returning !

Had cream tea and a coffee, sitting at a table outside and watched the world go by. Cream tea was good and so was the coffee. All cost £10.60.

We were told it was the best ice cream in Bridgenorth and they were not wrong. Such a selection. We were really spoiled for choice.

and quite possibly for some distance around!

Excellent service, very tasty ice creams. Love the hand made clocks. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Child/toddler friendly.

Giovanni's serves the best coffee in Bridgnorth and has a wonderful range of high quality ice creams. If you own, or like, dogs this is the place for you. It is very dog friendly and is known by many locals as the dog cafe.

We arrived in Bridgnorth at nearly 5pm, desperate for a cup of tea. We weren't tempted by the amazing range of ice-creams on offer, but the kindly staff took pity on us and served tea and biscuits even though they were on the point of closing.

Fantastic location, dog friendly with complimentary dog biscuits, enjoyed a delicious crepe and coffee.

We were staying in Bridgnorth in April, and we found Giovanni's with their Bennetts icecream (near the funicular railway).

Came with our 2 dogs for tea and toasted tea cakes

We had a lovely coffee stop during a lovely day in Bridgnorth. There were 7 of us in total and a dog. We ordered pancakes, ice cream, a scone, a bacon muffin,tea, coffee and milkshakes to eat in the cafe side.

Fantastic ice cream, great and lovely staff. Flavours are amazing Devon toffee and salted caramel is a must!

Instantly got the thumbs up from us as it’s dog friendly, but not only that these people really know how to make a proper flat white coffee. Crepes we had were lovely and we were made to feel very welcome........if you’d like to open a branch in East Sussex we would be regulars for sure

Called in for crepes and coffee/tea after walk around Bridgnorth on a cold Sunday afternoon. Lovely hot cappuccino and pot of tea served with china cups and made to order crepes - delish!

As locals, we visited recently at lunchtime, as a welcome break from our shopping.

Want something alittle different and nice for your lunch or tea? I can recommend a galette from Giovanni's. I haven't had this treat since a memorable gastronomic trip to Brittany and this one certainly came as a pleasant surprise. I tried the ham and cheese with an egg. All I can say is, 'yum'! I'm now looking forward to any excuse to return and try a sweet crepe soon!

Best (only) creperie in Bridgnorth. Very welcoming to both humans & canines. Recommend the breakfast crepe with bacon & fried egg.

Best coffee in town and hot. Friendly professional service, nothing is too much trouble. Their selection of ice creams is...

Great coffee shop. People friendly, dog friendly...feels like you are with family. Very special owners and staff. The food and ice cream is very good! They will go above and beyond!

The ice cream selection is lovely and all the flavours sound inviting!

Arrived at 9am on a Sunday expecting it to be quiet but it was packed. Ordered my 5 year old the blueberry pancake, myself the egg muffin and my husband the egg and bacon muffin. We could not complain- every last crumb was eaten and the service was just lovely. Great start to our day. Thanks

Visited Bridgnorth with friends and just had to have an ice cream, couldn't have got better one's, good choice of cones and flavours, we know where to go on our next visit

Fancied a cuppa so we called in, tea, coffee, two scones with cream and jam, just over £9.00 great value for money, really friendly staff we will definitely be going back next time we are in bridgenorth, this is a coffee shop mainly, with small snacks ,no main meals ,

Visited Bridgnorth with friends and found this lovely ice cream parlour just off the main street, Dog friendly. We had a pot of Tea for two and our friends had a couple of honey and ginger (!! Amazing) ice creams. Our dog, Molly had a nice cool bowl of fresh water. The Pot of Tea would have served 4 or even 6 - it was so big. lol! See photo. Posh china too. They even put a little dog treat on a small saucer for our dog. Made us giggle.Such friendly and happy Staff / Owners who were more than happy to show me their "cave"at the back of the shop - an architectural underground oddity from the 16th Century. VERY interesting.Will be going again - and again.

A super friendly cafe which also allows dogs of all sizes. The crepes are superb, both savoury and sweet. 2 favourites, the American stack and the ham/cheese/egg. Even the dogs get there own free healthy dog biscuits!

Revisiting old haunts and came across Giovanni's at the top of Cartway just off High Street.My first time having Bennett's ice cream (from Worcestershire apparently) absolutely stunning flavours - I had a 2 scoop tub comprising of Orange & Chocolate along with Honey & Ginger.This is real ice cream, not Whippy rubbish, REAL ice cream. Do your tastebuds a favour if you're nearby, call in and try some.

My family and I made a stop in bridgnorth on a long drive and were looking for a quick meal before getting back on the road. After seeing the ratings and images on TripAdvisor it seemed like a nice little spot and we headed off. After arriving and sitting at the table we noticed the room was not as inviting as the picture suggested. We were promptly greeted and we proceeded to tell him what we would like but to our disappointment the "homemade soup" on the menu was not actually an option so I settled for a scone and the rest of my party both got pancakes. The scone and drinks came quite quickly and the scone was nice but the pancakes took a very long time to come. It was a this point that a member of my group had to go to the toilet but when he came back I was told that there was no toilet paper or soap. Finally the pancakes arrived and they were very good but the plate that the pancakes come on is a nice looking wooden board which is not very practical for maple syrup and blueberries. So overall there was good food and the owners were nice and gave us a discount but it was a bit disappointing.

Called in here for an ice cream, and my partner asked which cones were gluten free. ''All of them'' was the reply. ''They are made of cornflour'' ?? ( which seemed odd ) We chose our flavours and the woman then said. ''Sorry, actually we don't have gluten free cones at all '', What on earth was wrong with her ? Was she just rambling for the sake of it. ? Very strange. we opted for tubs, which were tiny and cost £2 each and it was not the best ice cream we have ever had. I suggest trying one of several other ice cream shops in the area.

We have been visiting Giovanni's for a while to sample their delicious array of ice creams , Couldn't resist calling in to try their new venture ,,,Crepes ! We each decided to try the black cherry and chocolate filling , Heaven indeed, Must admit to having a scoop of honey and ginger ice cream with mine, We weren't disappointed and shall be going back to sample a different filling, Maybe savoury next time, A lovely quaint interior to the shop and eating area, ,,and the staff ? Wonderful, always served with a smile

In the summer last year I'd swing by here after work for a de-stress ice-cream and a walk, and it has never disappointed. The ice-cream is delicious, not overpriced, and the staff are really friendly (you know you eat too much ice cream if they start to recognise you!Me and my boyfriend recently visited after a bit of a hiatus for lunch and were pleasantly surprised at the menu change. Crepes are a favourite of ours having been to Paris on our first holiday together, and they were fantastic - you must try the goat's cheese and pepper. A lovely light lunch and served as always with a smile. I can't recommend this place enough, for ice-cream or lunch!

All the old favourites with a brand new section of delicious sweet and savoury crepes.No change to the previous friendly welcome but with a bigger bowl of water outside the front door for dogs.

Popped in this afternoon with our new puppy. Owners delighted to meet her and very open and friendly for chatting. Good for quick coffee and cake and rare experience to go to toilet in a cave!

Visited here with the girlfriend and the dog, a great place which is dog friendly. The staff are very friendly and provide dog biscuits with your order. The coffee is honest and the food is good and honest too. Overall a great place for a coffee/lunch stop.

Very friendly the staff are very concerned about the customers relaxing atmosphere a pleasure to go there

Such pleasant owners looking to give customers a lovely experience.Lovely pots of tea.Pleasant calm surroundings.Choice of food. A newspaper provided. Ice Cream parlour to temp adults and children.Massive choice especially in summer.

We visited Giovanni's today, after coming up the Cliff railway with our two babies (6 months and 20 months). We sat down, and had a very pleasant ice-cream.All was going fine until the lady who was serving the ice-cream comes outside and stands about 8 feet from us and lights up a cigarette. It was disgusting, there we are eating our ice-creams getting covered with stinking cigarette smoke. Don't get me wrong, people are free to do whatever they like. Smoking is a choice many people make, and I have no problem with it at all. However, please have some consideration for you customers. You smoke outside with your uniform on, and then go back to serving food. This isn't a greasy spoon!

Whether you need a snack, a coffee or a delicious ice cream on sweltering hot day there will be something on offer to meet your needs.Located near the top of Cartway, Giovanni's offers a friendly welcome and a wide range of excellent hot or cold snacks and delicious filter coffee.I have been there repeatedly in the past month and have received a lovely welcome from the owners and staff.Highly recommended.

At the end of a tiring shopping trip we received a warm welcome and reviving cup of tea. They offer an excellent range of ice-creams, and Sam, Lucy and Team are always ready with a smile.

What a lovely little coffee shop/ice cream parlour. The coffee was fresh and delicious with the added bonus of a peanut cookie(unexpectedly)Great choice of ice cream flavour including lemon meringue. Well worth a visit.

Third time visit for me today the reason I've returned was after hearing they do soda floats so wanted to try cream soda with cherry ice cream is looked forward to it for ages and I wasn't let down .giovannis is a fantastic little coffee shop/ice cream parlour which is situated on the main walking route between high town and low town if your in Bridgnorth you'd do yourself a big favour in popping in because I know they'll have something to please your appetite

Quite simply a fantastic place to enjoy one of their superb hot chocolates and amazing ice creams . The staff are extremely warm and welcoming, especially Nigel. Don't waste time going elsewhere go here. We will return

Been here twice, once for hot drink but ice cream was on mind today. liked this place at first visit as customer service was excellent. Today as its hot day wanted to have an ice cream that turned out to be a great idea as they have good variety .Service was good as always even though it was busy .ice cream was great and good price too.highly recommended .

Must say i have come to love this place the ice creams they have are amazing and the milk shakes out of of this world..... the best in town..... they have many other things on there meun to have and enjoy ...the staff make you feel very welcome and will keep going there

This is a really friendly place where we had the best coffee during our mini break in Shropshire. Breakfast - thick slices of toast, egg and bacon muffin, was delicious. The ice creams looked good, we will try them next visit.

That place mums best ice cream in years and mine too so a great place to visit if you want some ice cream✅

We are blessed in Bridgnorth by a number of nice places to snack and enjoy the fineries of ice-cream and a lite bite, but none like the quality of Giovanni's. Sam and her well honed team provide an excellent service. Nothing is too much trouble. Their politeness knows no bounds. My visits are all well remembered.....Thank you xx

We went as a family with an allergy child in our group on a day out to bridgenorth, coming across this ice cream shop. We asked if they did dairy free ice cream and they did sorbet, so my grandson could have an ice cream the same as his brother and sister! So very helpful and welcoming. It was a pleasure to visit this quaint little shop.

If you want a great ice cream or a cup of tea or coffee.you will find both at giovanni"sand you get value for money and a smile.

If you are in Bridgnorth for a visit or simply live here you just have to pop into Giovanni's for an ice cream, the choice of flavours are fantastic and you get the most warm welcome from Sam and her lovely staff. You can have a lovely cuppa there too so if the weather is dodgy you can get nice and warm with a brew and some toast.

Best coffee in the town. We like the egg and bacon muffins, and they will make the bacon well done if you ask. Yummy ice cream too. Very friendly service and friendly atmosphere - strangers talk to each other sometimes. We appreciate the complimentary biscuits while waiting for the fresh food, and the newspapers.

Delighted with the service we received yesterday. We were served a large pot of tea which gave us three cups each. We also received two complimentary biscuits which were delicious. More importantly though we were able to take in our well behaved dog who also received two biscuits which went down a treat. We also asked for a top up of our dogs water bottle which was no trouble to them. Service was excellent from the gent whose name I think was Ben. We will certainly visit again.

We pop in often for a coffee and sometimes a toasted teacake and we are always greeted with a friendly smile. Great little tea shop.

A realy friendly cafe with good light food and a very friendly staff and ice cream to die for. Its well worth a visit.

I visited Giovanni's with my son and wasn't disappointed. We were shown through to a nice seated area and our order taken quickly, coffee for me and milkshake for the lad. When it came our polite waitress noticed that the shake might be too thick for my son to drink and offered to bring milk to thin it. A small but appreciated touch. I look forward my next visit.

Fabulous little place, great hospitality and lovely cream tea. Thanks for staying open for us must come back for an ice cream.Thanks Nigel and friends

popped in here for an ice cream on a sunny bridgnorth afternoon !! great varieties and service with a smile from sam and the gang !!

I say wonderful staff, we only bought ice-creams from the take-out part of this establishment, but what an impression the lady serving us made. I only bought two cornets, but in that time she engaged me, was thoroughly charming and I can only say was a highlight of the day. You often see people behaving badly or rudely and these can have a negative effect on you; this lady was a shining beacon in a dull sky and gave me hope for humanity, (as far as I know) she was not a politician or scientist, she was serving ice cream, but she was a shining heart, a philosopher, a nice person. The ice creams were good, too.

Good service, lovely staff, excellent coffee and good snack food. This cafe is also the most dog friendly establishment in Bridgnorth.

I must have walked past Giovannis hundreds of times without really giving the unassuming cafe on Cartway a second glance. Why? Well tbh I thought it was "only" an ice cream parlour. Today however, I actually went in ... with wife, youngest daughter and our dog. We were delighted by the friendly staff and delicious snack-lunches.I had a poached egg and bacon muffin while the ladies went for brie and cranberry and bacon and cheese paninis followed by chocolate brownie and superb vanilla ice cream. Great double shot coffees for the ladies and for me a strawberry milkshake. We were even brought some home made doggy biscuits on a little dish so pooch wasn't left out!I visit Bridgnorth almost every weekend to shop and walk the dog and am happy to say that Giovannis will henceforth be a regular and very enjoyable part of that routine

ブリッジノース・キャッスルヒル・レイルウェイの駅舎から歩いて１〜２分のところにあるアイスクリームパーラーです。いろいろな種類のアイスクリームがありますが、私はラムレーズンをいただきました。カップだと £2.00 です。

There is such a good choice of ice creams here, every flavour you can think of. The shop is very clean and the lady that serves me is very friendly.

My husband and I searched on trip advisor to find a dog friendly place in Bridgnorth to take our pup and Giovanni's came up. We were greated with a very warm atmosphere as soon as we walked in and the owners could not have been more friendly or helpful. We didn't go for any icecream options, instead we had a wonderful freshly made panini with a lovely fresh side salad. On the drinks menu there is an option for a double shot latte which was perfect.Had our pup been older I'm sure he would have loved to have had one of the complimentary dog treats. The lady who makes them happened to be in there at the time and you got the sense of a real lovely community spirit.I cannot recommend this place highly enough as it ticked all of our boxes and some! Thank you!

I first visited Giovanni's a few months ago, and have been a couple of times since. The first time I visited, the cappuccino was so good I ordered another. At that time I was on a low-carb diet so I declined the peanut cookie that came with each hot drink; on my latest visit I threw caution to the wind and wolfed it down. I have no regrets.The service is always friendly and efficient, and they offer cappuccino with a choice of one or two shots of espresso. I haven't tried the icecream sundaes yet, though another day off the diet is overdue...

We have walked past Giovanni's on many an occasion when in Bridgenorth and what a mistake that has been. We popped in for a cup of tea, but decided to have something to eat as well. The tea is served in a China teapot with old fashioned China cups as well which is really nice it also came with two loverly biscuits. My Wife ordered sweet patato, red pepper and chilli home made soup absolutely beautiful served with bread and butter. For myself feeling healthy I ordered home made carrot cake :-) delicious. Next time we are in Bridgenorth I know where we will be heading to.

We made a special trip to come back to enjoy another ice cream sundae and it was well worth it. The ice cream was excellent and lots of choice. Clotted cream, chocolate, caramel sauce it was devine. There was an apology for no fruit but really non was needed. I have tried sundaes since and non have come close. Lovely staff with great service.

Our 2nd visit to Giovanni's. My cousin and I had the ice cream sundaes again. Mine was pistachio and salted caramel. It really makes a change to have an ice cream that actually tastes like the flavour it is supposed to be. Quite delicious. The fact that clotted cream, toffee sauce and a chocolate flake are sundae ingredients too, makes it extra special. It's only a small ice cream parlour, but it has a lovely friendly atmosphere. Try it out!

Real nice ice cream really creamy and real nice service from the lady behind the counter ,situated right at the top of the cartway.

Really friendly staff and good choice of ice cream flavors. The hot chocolate with a scoop of ice cream in it is the best!!

Wonderful coffee, delicious snacks, friendly staff and dog friendly. What more can you ask for apart from their wonderful selection of ice creams
