Black Dog Gelato

Summer in Chicago means one thing: it's officially ice cream and gelato season! If you're looking to cool off with something sweet, Black Dog Gelato should be high on your list. Known for its small-batch, artisan gelato, this local favorite delivers bold flavors, creamy textures, and a rotating selection that makes every visit exciting.

I stopped by to grab a quick treat and went with a cup of Italian Cookie and Strawberry gelato. The Italian Cookie flavor was rich and slightly nutty, with cookie crumbles throughout, while the Strawberry was light, fruity, and super refreshing—perfect for a warm summer afternoon.

Black Dog Gelato's house-made, small-batch recipes keep the gelato ultra creamy and packed with flavor. From fruity to indulgent, there's a wide variety of gelato flavors to satisfy your sweet tooth—and the combo I tried was a total win.
