Penguino Penguino
Closed · Reopening 28 August

Changing the world,
one scoop at a time.

Twenty-six flavours. Churned every evening at the back of the shop on Clyde Road. Italian craft, NZ ingredients — arguably the best in Aotearoa.

Old favourites

Our most-loved gelato and ice cream flavours, ready for you to enjoy.

Made by hand. Every evening.

Real fruit. Real milk.
Real small batches.

01

Source local.

We pasteurise our own milk in the shop and bring in the proper ingredients for the rest. Real matcha, real chocolate, real fruit — never a packet mix.
02

Churn slow.

Gelato runs denser and colder than ice cream — less air, less fat, more flavour. Every batch is made on the premises the Italian way, the same way it has been since 2002.
03

Serve fresh.

Tomorrow's flavours are churned in the evening, once the shop quietens down. What you scoop the next day was made just hours before — never sitting in a freezer for weeks.
