Ice Cream Parlours in Bengaluru

Corner House - Bengaluru’s very own brand, Corner House was probably the go-to place in the city before any other ice-cream parlour raised its head. Their sundaes, fresh fruit ice creams and thick shakes are legendary among the city’s ice-cream-loving folks. Their hot choc fudge, which comes in a variation of sizes, is what gooey-chocolate-dripping-with-creamy-vanilla dreams are made of.

Don’t miss: Their trilogy that comes with fresh fruits and three scoops of flavors of your choice. Also, the Death by Chocolate.

Where to find: Across different suburbs in Bengaluru, including Indiranagar, Koramangala, Whitefield, Jayanagar and others.

 Lakeview Milkbar - Another old hand on the block, Lakeview Milkbar offers burgers, sandwiches and other eatables, along with a selection of ice creams and shakes. You will find a Bloody Mary ice cream here, along with fig and honey ice cream, blackcurrant ice cream, and the usual suspects like choco chips, butterscotch, pistachio, raspberry, orange, and the likes.
