We don’t know about you but this weather get’s us dreaming of ice cream! London has some exceptional places to get your fix. Whether you prefer gelato, froyo or vegan, there is something for everyone!
Here are 5 dog friendly Ice Creameries to put on your wish list this summer.
Unico Gelato, Notting Hill
This Italian Gelaterie has been keeping us cool since 2017. As well as gelato you can also get cakes and waffles in their small Notting Hill café. All dogs are welcome and can get their own little pot of vanilla.
They are currently open for takeaways and free delivery to the local area.

Chin Chin Ice Cream, various locations
Chin Chin have been making their amazing creations for 10 years and have locations in Soho, Camden and Shoreditch.
Their ice cream is hand churned using liquid nitrogen and their mission is to make life more fun which we all need, especially at the moment.
They will be announcing re-opening soon so follow them @chinchinicecream for updates and in the meantime you can order their starter kits to create your own masterpieces at home.
Ours is on its way and we can't wait to try it! We will also be first in line when they re-open.
Milk Train, Covent Garden
Unless you've been in an Instagram blackspot for the last couple of years, you can't fail to have noticed these guys.
Famous for their candy floss creations, Milk Train have visitors to London queuing for hours outside their Covent Garden shop.
We have yet to visit but our good friend Cedric tells us it is well worth a visit.
Follow them @milktraincafe for updates on re-opening dates and in the meantime you can join us in drooling over the images!
Jefferson’s, Balham
This independent café is definitely on our wish list. They make their own ice cream on site, where you can also get Ozone coffee, waffles and more. The ice cream is made from only fresh, natural flavours and using only organic milk.
Lynx from @midgeandanimals tells us it's one of his favourite places!
They are currently open for takeaways and delivery to the local area.

We doggies may be able to join you at these fabulous places but some of the delicious human ice creams aren't healthy for us so here are some of our favourite companies who make ice cream especially for us.
Pupsicle - iced treats for dogs made from fresh fruit and vegetables.
Frozzy's - lactose free frozen yoghurt.
Billy & Margot - dairy free, fruit based iced treats.
Scoops - low in lactose with added supplements.
You could also try making your own fruit pupsicle by following our recipe here...
