Local cafe and gelato shop
Dolcezza Gelato Factory and Coffee Lab
Why locals love it
From cappuccino to gelato, everything you will consume in Dolcezza is handmade with local ingredients. Dolcezza's local sources can all be seen and studied on their website, as well as at their factory, which is very much open to the public for tours and tastings.
Why you should visit it
The factory is amazing and near one of DC's hidden gems, Union Market. There are a host of artisanal foodmakers in the open air market, but the Dolcezza factory, just behind, is quite special. Take a weekend tour to learn more about production, why Dolcezza was founded, and to taste the freshest gelato with innovative flavors around.
Special tip
Tours are only 20 minutes and fill up quickly, so do arrive early.
