1.Make a wish
You really have to visit Luicella's every day because the flavours on the menu change daily. Besides the famous "Franzbrötcheneis" (inspired by the famous pastry), there are classics like chocolate, unusual ones like "lavender and salt" and vegan sorbets. And to keep it that way, there is a request board for new flavours. Meanwhile, Luicella's ice cream is no longer only available in the ice cream cafés in St. Georg and St. Pauli, but also in Eppendorf, at Grindelhof and in Eimsbüttel. If this continues, Luicella's will conquer the whole world of sweet tooths. We certainly wouldn't mind!

St. Georg2.The queen's ice cream
When the ice cream parlour of the Sugar Monarchy opened its doors for the first time, we were right there. We didn't want to miss out on these sugary delicacies. From creamy, fruity soft ice cream with fine toppings to refreshing Popsicles and tasty cookie ice cream sandwiches, there is something here for all ice cream lovers. Of course, all ice creams are homemade and consist exclusively of organic ingredients. A heavenly treat.

In a list of favourite ice cream parlours, the "Lieblings Eis" ice cream parlour should of course not be missing! Their tasty tale began with ice cream and cake – meanwhile, guests can also treat themselves to a rich breakfast or homemade lunch. There are now two Lieblings Eis shops in Hamburg: one in the city centre on Burchardplatz and one in St. Pauli on Detlev-Bremer-Strasse. The ice cream varieties include tried-and-tested classics such as strawberry and hazelnut, but you can also expect more unusual combinations such as chocolate-orange, zabajone and cinnamon plum. We are certain that Lieblings Eis will also become your favourite ice cream café.

In Bahrenfeld, pirates of an exceptional kind rattle their cones and spread joy and full bellies instead of fear and terror with their ammunition consisting of 180 different types of ice cream. New, crazy ice cream varieties are conjured up daily in the in-house galley. Adventurous ice cream lovers are well catered for here: in addition to the classic flavours, there are specialities such as cream cheese, liquorice, or cucumber. And there are also vegan and lactose-free alternatives. The Eispiraten are a real Hamburg highlight, especially for young sailors.
