So many pastries it was hard to choose. I really enjoyed their croissants and coffee. Their focaccia bread was so soft and squishy and pretty filling.

Duomo Gelatieri dal 1952 is about a 10 minute walk from Milano Centrale. It is situated in a nice…read moreneighborhood lined with apartment buildings. This is where the locals get their gelato. The shop is modern and the gelato is kept in those silver tins. We chose a hazelnut gelato and a peach sorbet. They served it in a tall cone. It was absolutely delicious, light, and refreshing. The staff speaks primarily Italian and it was a bit intimidating trying to ask for two flavors in a cone. But they were very nice and we were able to understand each other. Here's a tip: pointing and reading go a long way.

Really good cookies here! Try almond or pistachio…read more Guy behind the counter spoke fluent English which was comforting to me, as my Italian is not that extensive. I believe it cost 1€ per cookie, which is the average price around this area, if not cheaper.

Our Airbnb host actually recommended this chain of shops for gelato, but affogato in the morning we…read morehad instead! This one is located near the duomo and wasn't too busy despite the presence of their breakfast menu and multitude of tables. There was definitely a small up charge to sit at the tables which was of no bother. The affogato felt oddly satisfying in the morning, though the vanilla gelato was more the texture of ice cream. Maybe they save the real gelato -- which are kept in the small covered metal containers -- for the actual gelato orders?
