Morano Gelato

Top choice in New Hampshire


Founder Morgan Morano fell head over heels for gelato while living in Florence. Next step? Import some genuine Italian equipment and launch this brilliant gelato shop in the heart of Hanover. With new batches made fresh every morning, complemented by cakes and espresso drinks, it's one of the best dessert spots in the state. Open on Tuesdays in warmer months.
