Angelo Brocato Ice Cream

56944 reviews

Brocato's was on Carrollton prior to Katrina, a couple blocks north of Canal Street (east side of the street). I do not know their post-Katrina status, but let's hope they (have) come back! This is a family owned business and ownership has been passed down in the family at least a generation, maybe more. This clean, friendly establishment serves the creamiest desserts; they serve true Italian gelato as well as ice cream, canoli, cappucino (from an authentic antique brass cappucio machine) and many other authentic Italian sweets and beverages. On summer afternoons and evenings, you can bet the waiting line will fill this little ice cream parlor - but it moves very quickly, and it is definitely worth the minimal wait! I find I need the time to decide what I should order! They have regular flavors as well as seasonal ice creams My favorites are pear (seasonal) and rum raisin (regular), but I regularly try new flavors because they are always delightful.

Brocato's moved out of its French Quarter location years ago. It's now a Ben & Jerry's.
